Somehow Jill was possessed and we aren’t sure why, but good news, she’s fine now. Overall we thought this list was okay. We have some quibbles and there were a couple of films we thought were too high, some too low. There were a couple that we thought were egregiously low, but that’s bound to be the case with most subjective lists.
