15 Movies that Can Also Be Watched Backwards
I’m a frequent purveyor of the social media site Reddit and one day, while browsing, I stumbled upon a spectacular thread that was all started by the sentence above. Hundreds of users began spouting off movies that could also be watched backwards, and they came up with some pretty excellent results. I decided to make a little art project out of it to share with you all; it’s nothing much, but it’s better than posting 15 lines of flat text. I even threw one of my own in there.
Hit the jump and check out the rest, and feel free to shout out your own.
And my own entry:
Thanks Redditors. Your guys’ turn.
