…I think I'm trying to forget my childhood after my parents passed.<br />
That's a great list!<br />
I also have this fascination with Jaws: IV, maybe it was because I grew up next to a video store.<br />
Edit to add: I never thought the Shark followed her, I just thought it was paranoia in her head.<br />
It wasn't until I was in my 20's the Shark actually did follow her…</li>

<li>Back to the Future<br />
All the the other you mentioned I have seen except "Ran"<br />
…<br />
I do think Fatal Attraction would also be in my top 5.<br />
I suppose, I would have to inlude E.T…<br />
But I'd replace Raiders with the two sequels.<br />
so that would be:</li>
<li>Back To The Future</li>
<li>E.T</li>
<li>______ Blank<br />
I don't even think E.T deserves my #2 spot<br />
Still great choices!</li>
