🔥We Have Found a Witch, May We Burn Her?!🔥 — Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Stake

Built in collaboration with similar lists by Brandon, John, and Darren.

This is a collection of films that most seem to love that I don't necessarily care for.

While I don't haughtily dislike or hate any of these, I find them to be underwhelming, unmoving, and not nearly as captivating as many seem to think.

Of course, this does not mean any are bad or that others are wrong in loving them, in fact, most on here I actually like to varying degrees — only, the ratings are given with noticeably less enthusiasm than most.

I gave myself no specific parameters in my choosing of these; just simply taking into account that I'm aware of their respective reputations on the cinematic world stage or, in some instances, within their own genres.
