Mark,

Your fine take on Taxi Driver reminded me that I watched it recently and immediately began doing pushups!

Harry Powell rides up on his horse
To abduct John and Pearl by brute force
But Rachel defends them
And earnestly tends them
Till LOVE conquers HATE (but of course).

Roger!

Rashomon, (don't know!), Thelma and Louise, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, The Birds

Ralph - Moby Dick (and cheers, just don't put brandy on the cornflakes)

Annie - yaay. Night of the Hunter! Glad you're playing. Here's one for you...

Two actors, one drunk, one much drunker
abandon the city to hunker
alone on a farm
but the locals mean harm
and an uncle proves less than avuncular.

A virginal Christian copper
investigates pagans improper
Their beliefs make him sick
and it all was a trick!
For the crops the cop must come a cropper.

Aha, the Wicker Man. Here's something a bit lower down the cultural scale.


Immortals who play hide and seek, all
Set out to kill off their equals.
When all’s said and done,
There can be only one.
That is, till they bring out the sequel.

Default No Pun

A while back in Boulder, Colorado
I spent a great night with a shadow
While her first name
and another’s the same
her second is Shadow, not Maddow
