Looking back over the last twenty or even thirty years of horror films, we’ve been on a downward slope with the occasional spike of decency. In a market filled with remakes, blood and guts, and redundancy, there’s a bit of solace thinking back on movies like The Omen. An undeniable favorite in the Christian end times corner of the horror universe. Packaged along with Richard Donner’s classic are two sequels and a remake, will they follow the overall downward trend? Or are we going to see a spike, maybe even a spark in inventive and horrific film making? Read the rest of this entry »

I have only seen a handful of Paul Newman films in my lifetime. Most of the films I have watched were more from the 80’s and 90’s. The one film I found the most enjoyment from was The Color of Money. As I have mentioned many times before in my reviews, I don’t have the most experience with films prior to 1970. They have never been my cup of tea. I had vowed to have an open mind about things when they pertain to older films. So, going into the viewing of Cool Hand Luke, I had no idea of what to expect. Read the rest of this entry »

In just a few weeks from this release Daniel Craig will star for his second time in the 22nd film in the James Bond franchise. A lot has changed over the decades, to be sure. It’s hard to imagine that it was back in 1962 (1963 here in the US) when a relatively unknown film actor named Sean Connery took on the role of 007 for the first time in a film. There was a forgotten television event that was not a part of the official film franchise. Now with the release of another new Bond film, this is an excellent time to go back to where it all began. The Blu-ray release of that original film, Dr. No, is the perfect opportunity to rediscover the roots of Ian Fleming’s super spy. No matter how long you’ve been a fan or how many times you’ve seen Dr. No, I promise this will be a new experience for you. Read the rest of this entry »

James Bond had finally arrived into the big time with the publication of From Russia With Love. It would become one of Fleming’s most popular books. It didn’t hurt that President John Kennedy gave a list of his 10 favorite books of all time, and this one was on it. It was a natural follow-up for EON to film. There was a surge in popularity of Cold War films and books at the time, and this one fit more than most of them did. Just having Russia in the title was good for a couple extra million at the box office. Fortunately the team of Sean Connery and Terrance Young were on board early for this film.

In many cases, you won’t find Jack Nicholson in a role that is bad. He is an actor who can play just about any part thrown at him and make it his own. He has been President in Mars Attacks, a crazed out writer in The Shining and in One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest, Jack as McMurphy, a petty thief, hits a homerun easily in one of the most critically acclaimed films of all time.

There is nothing like a good epidemic or virus to scare the living heck out of you. It happens everyday. Turn on your local news and you’ll see stories about bird flu, salmonella, Mad Cow or killer bees. Sure, all of these things are out there but imagine a virus like the plague, in today’s environment, and you would have a huge panic. Well, in this Blu-ray review of Outbreak, a deadly virus is on the loose on US soil and it is up to Dustin Hoffman and his co-stars to save the day. Read the rest of this entry »

Movies about parodies and spoofs seem to be a dime a dozen. Really, for me it all started back with Kentucky Fried Movie and Amazon Women on the Moon. It then went onto the likes of Airplane and The Naked Gun. Of course, within the past 8 years, the onslaught of parodies has flooded the movie market. This time around it is Meet the Spartans, a take off of the hit movie, 300. Read the rest of this entry »

I have seen plenty of Clint Eastwood films throughout my lifetime. I have always been a fan of his although I have yet to watch any of his Westerns, aside from The Unforgiven. Eastwood, for most of his career, has been the typical bad ass who you didn’t want to meet up with if you were doing something wrong. In Dirty Harry, Eastwood’s character was the trend setter of what movie cops were to become; the loaner who does things his own way regardless if anyone else likes it or not.

For anyone who has read my reviews know, I am not a big fan of the classics.
It is just the way I am. But when I received The Sand Pebbles to watch and review, my interest was definitely peaked given what I had heard about the film. This was my first opportunity to watch a film with famed actor Steve McQueen, as well as world renowned actor and narrator, Richard Attenborough. I was very excited to see what all the talk was about.

I’ve spent more than a few hours in the company of Ray Harryhausen over the years. I’ve handled many of the original armatures and have seen the original hand drawn storyboards and conceptual drawings he had created for most of his films. We’ve had many talks about this and all of his other films. I treasure those moments as I treasure seeing 20 Million Miles To Earth finally in hi-def. Read the rest of this entry »

In the Boy Scouts every year they have something called a Jamboree. It’s a chance for troops around the country to get together and talk about the things young adolescent boys talk about. The week is filled with friendly, and not so friendly, competition. There’s plenty of talk about unity and the common problems they all face. Imagine, if you will, street gang jamboree.

Dog Day Afternoon is just another memorable title on the lengthy resume of Al Pacino. Here we are over thirty years after it?s original release and it still has people talking. The film itself was inspired by true events based on the article ?The Boys in the Bank.? Dog Day Afternoon is really about much more than just a regular bank robbery, but I?m sure most of you know that already. Being nominated for several awards in 1975, Dog Day Afternoon only managed to pull away with one, so this movie must be good, but is it great? Read the rest of this entry »
