Jean-Claude Van Damme reunites with writer/director Sheldon Lettich for a film that promises twice the Van Damage. One of my favorite Van Damme films.
Baby the Rain Must Fall is a well done drama starring Steve McQueen and Lee Remick. The film is deadly serious and is hurt by some musical scenes, but the performances make it memorable.
The Hunted is a fun action film from the peak of American paranoia regarding Japan’s influence. Fans of Rising Sun will enjoy.
A Breed Apart has a fantastic cast but the script fails to create enough tension to make a lasting impression. Shout!Factory has given the film a release.
The Prisoner of Second Avenue is well directed and features fine performances, but it is so overwhelmingly negative that it is not worth the effort.
Frankenstein Created Woman is a fun and melodramatic Hammer Horror film starring David Morse and Susan Denberg. Shout!Factory has given it a deluxe release.
None but the Brave is an interesting film because of its even handling of both sides of the conflict. It is also notable as Sinatra’s first directorial effort. It has a lot of failings but a strong finale.
Sylvester Stallone, Billy Dee Williams, and Rutger Hauer Star in this early-Eighties thriller. Aside from a fairly ridiculous ending, the film works pretty well. Shout!Factory have given it a great special edition.
Fred Dekker’s classic cliche exploiting genre blending classic has been given an amazing release by Shout!Factory.
The Green Inferno is Eli Roth at his most uncompromising and unhinged. A throw back picture to the cannibal films of the Seventies and Eighties, it is not for everyone. Shout!Factory have given it a deluxe release.
