Before the Netflix series came along, there was this charming film version of Lemony Snicket's gothic mystery series. The dark fantasy follows the story of three hapless orphans who, after losing their parents to a terrible fire, encounter the nefarious Count Olaf who's set after their fortune. There's no witchcraft involved in the series, but like Harry Potter and his friends, the Baudelaires are resourceful and brave in the face of evil. Jim Carrey makes for a delightfully repellent Count Olaf, and the rest of the cast is pretty stacked too, given that it includes, oh, Jude Law and Meryl Streep.
