Call the Ambulance Before I Hurt Myself 2 reviews Hilt
Nettwerk Records, 1990
An unheralded classic.
+ Essential for Puppy heads / psychedelic music lovers
hilt, Call the Ambulance... Before I Hurt Myself (Nettwerk, 1990)
I will say from the outset that the word "wackiness" is not normally appropriate in a review. To my knowledge, I have never used it in one. And most probably, I never will again.
Musically, Call the Ambulance is about what ...

The Outer Limits - The Original Series, Season 1 150 reviews Outer Limits
MGM (Video & DVD), 2002
five stars for mayjor episodes six for the Sixth Finger, Man Never Born, and OBIT.
+ Very happy to see this series on DVD + excellent series
The First season is the best and don't even bother with the second, it was nothing but a B&W "Night Gallery" crap shot. The funds ran out, why I cannot speculate as this was a high quality and believable(if at times campy-who cares!) Sci Fi series. It has stories of profound insite tugging on ...

Vincent: The Life and Death of Vincent Van Gogh 14 reviews Gabriella Trsek, John Hurt
New Video Group, 2005
Magnificent
+ Vincent
As a painter and student of art history, I see a LOT of movies and read a lot of books about art and artists. This film is a triumph. It is visually stunning - you could turn off the sound and enjoy the images alone. John Hurt is the perfect voice -- his voiceover is made up entirely of selected ...

Ear Bitten 1 review Severed Heads
Sevcom, 2002
In the beginning, there was noise. . .an amazing debut of industrial pioneers Severed Heads
When the double LP "Industrial" compilation "The Elephant Table Album" came out in the early 80's, it was an attempt to classify a certain sound at a certain point in history. . .and the term "difficult music" was rather brilliantly applied.
Now, it must be pointed out that Severed Heads didn't ...

Excalibur 310 reviews Nigel Terry, Helen Mirren
Warner Home Video, 1999
Near perfection
+ Excalibur, The Movie of all Movies
All in all, and after watching several recent versions and variations on the topic of Arthurian legends, Boorman's 1981 movie remains an almost perfect combination of script, acting, photography, and music. He takes the legend simply to an epic tale. I highly recommend this over any other of its ...

The Wire: On the Box 1979 3 reviews Wire
Pink Flag, 2004
Essential. Really.
+ Amazing experience + Finally
Although I was a fan of Wire from the first single, I didn't get to see them live until their second phase; nor was there much footage of them ever broadcast. So this hourlong live-in-the-studio session from the German TV show Rockpalast would be an intiguing document in any event, but it's so much ...
