NUMBER 2
RITUALS (aka Creeper)
In the world of drive-in/B movies there are many
horrific creatures. This Canadian woodsy thriller
with Hal Holbrook is on many fan's top-ten lists.
While the story resembles Deliverance in the basic
sense, the story here is deeper and more interesting,
It's beautifully shot, has some great acting and is
in some ways is better than Deliverance.
