Last October I pirated around 100 horror movies and only 2 of them took longer than a day.

Beyond the Black Rainbow (2010) - took a couple of days, it was stuck at 10% for a while and one day i wake up and the whole thing finished in like 6 hours. I'm guessing someone turned on a pc that had been off for a long time lol.

Cabin Fever (2002) - this one took over a week and I was deadset on not paying for it so I just let it sit, pretty much the same thing with the previous torrent, it was stuck at a low percentage for a long time and then one day I hop on my computer and it had fully finished.

Other than that, a lot of Japanese films or foreign films in general will take a long time if they're not that popular. If I don't care too much I'll just delete it and forget about it.
