What about "The Innocents"?  Or does that not count because it is based on "Turn of the Screw"?

I also think "Night of the Living Dead" should get some credit for the zombies-destroying-Collinwood sequence.

I'm painfully ignorant about films.   I'm building up an interesting library now, though, from $1 VHSs sold in tents along the road, things like that, so I'm catching up a bit.   I saw a zombie movie set in WW1 france I think starring Dean Jagger from the 30s??   Should I not have passed this up?   Something with Ray Milland from the early 60s too, some horror thing.    Sorry for the drift of topic but today, I feel a need to talk about broader things and life rather than DS specifics.   I was just thinking how I might start a board for this.    A "Life" board of some kind.
