Five Movies That Deserve the 3D Treatment

List of the Day

Hollywood shows fierce symptoms of 3D Oversaturation Syndrome with Avatar fever still running high and plans unfolding to add a dimension to the Indiana Jones and Star Wars series — among others.

But amidst the dubious decisions and trend-hopping films, there are a few movies that could actually benefit from the 3D treatement. Here are but five of them:

Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome
Three words justifying Thunderdome’s spot on our list: Tina. Turner’s. Hair.

The Shining
Stanley Kubrick’s mind-melting magnum opus took blizzards and Johnny Carson to a whole new level of terror. Why not take them 3D?

The Labyrinth
The only thing that could make Goblin King Jareth’s Magic Dance more magical would be a third dimension.

Poltergeist
In case this classic horror flick didn’t breed enough childhood nightmares the first time around, surely a little 3D action could add to the terror.
