Another of my favorite movies is The Night of the Hunter, which was the only film directed by Charles Laughton. The film had a style which became influential to well-known directors such as the Coen Brothers, David Lynch, and Terrence Malick. It has become culturally significant and features many themes amongst its many horrific, harrowing images. To this day, I find it hard to think of any movie as "scary" when I remember seeing Shelley Winters... well, those who have seen the movie know exactly what image I'm speaking of.
