this really is the stupidest challenge ever
incidentally, i am thinking of buying some DVDs. i can afford two, but not three. which one should i not get?
1. Dr Strangelove
2. 2001: A Space Odyssey
3. 28 Days Later
i am also buying To Monte Carlo Or Bust on video because i saw it a while ago and have deemed it the best film in the world ever.

I reckon Flash Gordon should be in everybody's collection.
Just so everybody knows who Brian Blessed is.

Avoid 28 days later like the plague
A terrible excuse for a film. How it can be regarded as a classic I'll never understand.

the opening scenes are quite spooky,
and it would be a passable TV drama, but it's no classic. Dr strangelove and 2001, on the other hand...

oh yeah, I remember that
wasn't bad, certainly on a par with 28 days, however as you point out the soundtrack was a scorcher.

Well
watch it not on drugs.
Load of old bollocks.
The only drugs I'd take while watching it would be a ton of heroin in the hope I'd die before the end.
