Viva Las Vegas

November 5, 2007 // 0 Comments

The opening of "Viva Las Vegas" pretty much says it all, the excellent credit sequence is a montage of 1960's Vegas that will enthrall all who have a passion for Sin City. Featuring helicopter shots of the city from above we have a very [...]

Island Fever 4

Often, when you talk to people about porn in high definition people will make a face and ask whether we really need to see things in adult movies in such clarity. Touché! In these moments we probably all have either some grainy, underlit 80s porn [...]

Cutting Class

November 2, 2007 // 0 Comments

All movie stars have at least one movie in their past, made when they were struggling to be noticed, that they probably wish would never surface again. For Brad Pitt, that movie is "Cutting Class." Filmed in 1989 when Pitt was at the tender age [...]

The Stendhal Syndrome: 2-Disc Special Edition

November 1, 2007 // 0 Comments

Dario Argento has been one of the celebrated masters of Italian horror cinema since the 1970s, but his directorial output since the late 1980s has been largely disappointing to fans of giallo. It seems that he has never quite been able to measure up to [...]

French director Matthieu Kassovitz' first American film "Gothika" came out in 2003 to quite a few negative reviews. Most of his European films however have received much acclaim and you may actually recognize his face since he has also [...]

The Reaping

I was actually somewhat interested in seeing "The Reaping" after seeing the trailer in a movie theater. It appeared at first glance to have some interesting things going for it, and I must admit I am something of a fan of the whole [...]

AC/DC: Live At Donington

October 22, 2007 // 0 Comments

In front of an extraordinary crowd, "AC/DC" headlined the "Monsters Of Rock" festival in England's Castle Donington in the August of 1991. It turned into the band's, most beloved concert recording and is now available on [...]

From Hell

October 17, 2007 // 0 Comments

It has been some time since a film about the infamous "Jack The Ripper" has been released and since the topic is always good for some spine-tingling on-the-edge-of-your-seat suspense, "From Hell" was a release I was thoroughly looking [...]

I have to admit that while I am familiar with the Transformers animated series, I am not at all what you would call a fan of the franchise. I also have to admit that I didn't expect much from this adaptation of the show to the big screen. And I also [...]
