Think it’s just the rainy day blues that has this mind reader down in the dumps? Think again. Based on a Cornell Woolrich novel, Night Has A Thousand Eyes might be classic B-movie material (due to its supernatural sources), but the film is both poetic and engaging as one mind reader ...

Ah, the Cold War. Good times. Good times. And, with Red Dawn leading the way, it produced a great many war-themed movies during the 1980s all with Russia on its mind. One of those, albeit more teenage-driven than Rambo II, is now appearing on 4K Ultra HD. WarGames remains ...

“Screw the heat. We don’t stop for nobody!” Wine. Women. Whiskey. And weed. Sounds like a good time, right? It isn't. Angels Hard As They Come, a biker exploitation classic with original music by Carp, should know. Things don't go as planned. ...

“I like to remember things my own way.” When Fred Madison (Bill Pullman), a saxophone player based in Los Angeles, speaks these words to detectives in the beginning of Lost Highway, Lynch, I feel, gives the audience a big clue as to what this neo-noir’s story is about. And for those who’ve ...

Top secret genetic engineering gone wrong! This is what you get in this b-grade sequel (or is it a remake?) to the Corey Haim-led Watchers, a film no one remembers for good reason. With a bit more gore and a change in scenery, this creature feature pumps up the volume on its lifeless . ...

“The mob doesn’t think. It has a mind of its own.” In 1933, some loud-mouthed man with a tiny mustache and a weird haircut rose to power in the country of Germany. His name, I believe, was Adolf Hitler. You may have heard of him, no? Well, he established a dictatorship to replace ...

“Can I touch your wiener?” After a string of classic and utterly quotable sex comedies that seemed to totally dominate the late-90s through the 2000s (the American Pie series, The 40-Year-Old-Virgin, Sex Drive, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, and countless more!), movies that possess that ...

“You stinkin’ rat!” For crime flicks, High Sierra, directed by Raoul Walsh, is indeed a watershed moment as the gangster pictures of the 1930s gave way to the fatalism found in Film Noir, which would dominate the 1940s. Making spectacular use of its locations ...

“Dead or alive, you are coming with me.” When I first heard those words coming out from the lips of RoboCop (Peter Weller), I was hooked. Instantly. There was no looking back for this fat kid: RoboCop, making its debut in 1987, would be my summertime jam. The film might have been a surprise hit ...
