Come out, Neville!
I Am Legend is an influential horror novel that despite being written in 1954 still holds up today.

Neville is the only survivor of a disease that turns people into howling vampires that gather outside his house every night to try and break in or lure him out. During the day he scavenges for supplies and tries to hunt his friends and neighbours and kill them while they're sleeping. Then before the sun sets he must barricade himself into his home to try and survive one more night.


In equal parts horrifying and heartbreaking, this fresh take on the vampire novel is one to read.

Um OK
James Cole (Willis) lives in a time where disease has ravaged the planet and has been put in charge of a riddle on how maybe he can save the world. He also is given the ability to time travel to try and catch up to the elusive group the 12 monkeys. Along the way we see him run in to an mixture of crazy characters like Jeffery Goines (pitt) who is a pure nut ball but tries to make him believe he can help. The real question is that will he solve the riddle through all the muck and guck and save the world or will we perrish.

A modern classic!
I recently watched the Comedy Central Roast of Bruce Willis which wasn't very good, but did show clips of many Willis films. You forget how many very good films he was in back in the day (not so much now) including 12 Monkeys.

Any time travel film is always going to mess with your brain a little and become more confusing the more you think about it; however, this one still holds up.

Willis plays his again everyman sent back in time to try and discover details about a mysterious disease which ravages the entire world in the future he comes from. Enough twists and turns to keep you guessing and a hilarious supporting role for Brad Pitt.
