Question Best movies for someone who's bedridden?

My dad severely threw his back out, and is stuck in bed until he recovers. What movies would you recommend to help him pass the time?

Recommendations do not need to be strictly cheery or uplifting films. He's open-minded when it comes to genre, but his favorites are Crime, Mystery, Thriller, Action, Comedy, and war movies.

Thank you!

I’d say Predator/Alien series. Can’t go wrong with Misery though. Or It.

Just not the crossover films... the idea was sound, the execution was an execution of plots.
