THE BEGUILED (1971) vs THE BEGUILED (2017)
Don Siegel's THE BEGUILED is a mean sweaty movie lathered in southern Gothic thrills. The director of such macho fist pumpers as DIRTY HAIRY and THE KILLERS directs a crippled yankee Clint Eastwood into the hands of a group of women that live in a large southern...
Fear to be “ALONE IN THE T-SHIRT ZONE” (1986)
I'm a sucker for a film that's so odd, so singular in its vision, and so personal that it doesn't matter much if it 'works' or not. Such is the case with ALONE IN THE T-SHIRT zone, a slice of forgotten 80's VHS detritus whose mild notoriety comes from the fact that...
NEMESIS (1992) -Cyberpunk Heroic Bloodshed Noir
"I love you" said the sexy digital woman on the portable computer. Our hero doesn't respond. "Are you crying?" she asks. We can't see his eyes because his entire head is wrapped in bandages. He was scalped. Only his mouth peaks out. "Get me the hell out of here" the...

Castlevania: The Series
When are they going to get to the fireworks factory? It's a question I asked myself often while watching Netflix's adaptation of the long running action/adventure video game series CASTLEVANIA . It's got an amazing pedigree: Warren Ellis (of PLANETARY and...

The Legend of Billy Jean (1985) – Review
I love myself a road movie. I especially love myself a road movie that features a bunch of teens on the run because they accidentally shot a lecherous older man. They're not bad eggs, they just found themselves in a bad situation. From director Mathew Robbins,...
