dogs eating people IS cool
arraki's teen apocalypse triology ends in the wonderfully lovely "nowhere". of course, arraki's films always attract the WRONG audience so itll be hard for you to know which review to trust. here's how to tell: 1. if the reviewer says an arraki film has "bad acting" - they dont get it. 2. if the reviewer's only positive remark involves their mastabatory fantasies - they dont get it. 3. if ...

superb movie
A great film with an engrossing story- I literally could not take my eyes off it.George Peppard's signature role (better than Tiffany's). If you long for a movie with a great story buy it! Congrats to Paramount for the excellent transfer- sharp with great colours and very little evidence of print damage.

Blue Dahlia [VHS]

Alan Ladd, Veronica Lake

Universal Studios, 1996

One of the essential film noirs
The Blue Dahlia is a quintessential film noir, one of the great films that defined the genre. Army men return from World War II to find their wives drunk and cheating with scumbag jazz club owners. Whether this film has not been released on DVD in the U.S. is quite curious, considering almost every film noir has been burned onto DVD in various collections of the genre. My guess is that Turner ...

Sometimes, Hollywood tells the truth--and this is one of those times!!! This is part of your United States Air Force history! Many of you might even remember some of these things, and you will understand a whole lot more than you do now! Real people, real events, and a real story!

When you just really need to have a great cry over a predictable sap story

British aristocrat Alex and American college student Lilly meet when he approaches her with the line, "Some very heavy ready for a long trip".

Warner Home Video, 1998

Still Golden Age Hollywood's Must-See Western, Still a Masterful Work
Filmmaker George Stevens' (A Place in the Sun) meticulous mastery over the cinematic medium has never been more present than in this 1953 classic, a film that managed to reinvigorate the then-tired Western genre thanks to the director's stunning sense of composition and his sure hand with an excellent cast. Haunted by his traumatizing experience heading up a combat motion picture unit during ...

What More Can You Want?
Very good film with Alan Ladd as the head of his O.S.S. team dropped into Germany. Each one the team members do there part and each one pays dearly. The ending is a shocking twist! Buy This Film!

Two Years Before the Mast (B&W) [VHS]

Alan Ladd, Brian Donlevy

Universal Studios, 1998

A Great movie, with a Great Star!
One of the best (boys) adventure books ever written was Charles Henry Dana's Two Years Before the Mast. I read this book when I was 12, along with R.L. Stevenson's Treasure Island, and DaFoe's Robinson Caruso. This movie adaptation of Dana's work is as close to the book as Hollywood has ever gotten with transfering a book to the screen. Especially since this film was made in the 1940s. ...

Variety Girl [VHS]

Gary Cooper, Bing Crosby

Universal Studios, 1999

Novel conglomeration of talent and entertainment.
Variety Girl is one of those movies with a plot that's little more than an excuse to showcase a bunch of stars, mostly in small cameo roles. The story is based on the premise that the charitable Variety Club started when some Hollywood producers adopted a baby girl, Catherine Brown, in 1928 and Catherine, now grown (Mary Hatcher), is seeking fame in Hollywood. She picks a screen name, ...

Classic Westerns Collection (3pc) [VHS]
Alan Ladd, Jean Arthur

Paramount, 1997

A trio of boots-and-saddles biggies in one little box. In Shane , George Stevens's film about the archetypal outsider, Alan Ladd stars as a gunfighter who befriends a family of settlers battling the ranching interests. Watch for Jack Palance as the snakiest gunslinger ever. Gunfight at the O.K. Corral is one of the better retellings of the story of the Earps and the Clantons; though a shade stodgy, it features a pair of strong performances by ...

Drew Barrymore, Tom Skerritt

New Line Home Video, 1997

Barrymore's comeback begins here!
This erotic thriller from the late '90s can be attributed to staging Drew Barrymore's comeback from hellraising tabloid staple to a formidable actress that captivates audiences. Barrymore plays Ivy, a girl from the wrong side of that tracks who has Lolita-esque ways of getting what she wants. Sara Gilbert ("Roseanne") plays an awkward teen from a rich family who makes the mistake of befriending ...
