After Chris was arrested for jumping off a bridge onto a moving train for a sick YouTube video, the self proclaimed Movie Making Adrenaline Junkie put his talents to surprisingly good use producing horror films. His third outing "What Keeps You Alive" netted a spot on Rolling Stones' Top 10 Horror movies of 2018. When Chris isn't hanging off a bridge for a thrill, he is planning world domination. One movie at a time.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
