SHR Tilt (Pinball)
Created for the Self Help Radio* show "Tilt", which aired on KFFD-LP 98.3/KFFP-LP 90.3 Portland (freeformportland.org) on 5/11/23. (*not a self help show) - show has not yet aired
Films on the list are tagged on IMDb with either 'pinball', 'pinball-machine', 'playing-pinball', or 'video-arcade' and are available for free. (You may need to check IMDb page to find out where.)
Most only had one of the tags, a few dozen or so had two, one had three, and one had all four. (I'm sure there are hundreds of films that are not tagged, but I'm not going to worry about that... too much.) - The list part is complete as far as the tags are concerned. I have removed some tagged with just 'video-arcade' after checking the scenes and finding no pinball machines in the shots. I'm sure there are others, but I won't know for sure until I watch. (I have added the appropriate tags to the ones I came across that did have pinball machines.)
