6- Invasion of the body snatchers (Philip Kaufman)
7- Superman (Richard Donner)
Roger Ebert (15.12.1978) « Superman is a pure delight, a wondrous combination of all the old-fashioned things we never really get tired of: adventure and romance, heroes and villains, earthshaking special effects, and — you know what else? Wit. »
8- The Fury (Brian de Palma)
9- The Driver (Walter Hill)
Roger Ebert 04.05.1979
» « Dawn of the Dead » is one of the best horror films ever made — and, as an inescapable result, one of the most horrifying. It is gruesome, sickening, disgusting, violent, brutal and appalling. It is also (excuse me for a second while I find my other list) brilliantly crafted, funny, droll, and savagely merciless in its satiric view of the American consumer society. «
