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.
Cat People is an excellent exercise in technique that elevates a B-movie into grand entertainment. The Val Lewton produced RKO film has been given lush treatment by Criterion.
Based on a Cornell Woolrich novel, The Leopard Man stands as one of the best films of the Val Lewton RKO pictures run. Shout!Factory have given it a pristine release.
The Chill Factor is a VHS-era horror film that never quite gets it right. Unintentionally hilarious at times, a rental is recommended prior to a purchase.
This Island Earth is often spoken about with the same high regard as Forbidden Planet. Shout!Factory have given it a definitive release.
Wanted: Dead or Alive is a fun action film from the Eighties starring Rutger Hauer and a surprisingly great Gene Simmons.
The Chairman is almost a classic, but a limp middle act hampers the film from its true potential.
Terror in a Texas Town is an enjoyable Western Drama from Dalton Trumbo and Joseph H. Lewis. I love watching Sterling Hayden on screen, and he is great here (even with a Swedish accent.)
The Monster Squad is one of my favorite family films. Olive Films released it on Blu-ray a few years back.
