Top Ten Films of 2010: Dark Fantasy Cinema
This list is accurate as of post-date. So many films and not enough time to see them all—141 seen is this year's number—the potential for future change is inevitable, but as of today here are the best … I remember thinking around April that there hadn't been a truly great film released yet.
