This time I think it works the best of the trilogy, not least because there are a few good GWG here that can be found, not only Secret Service Agent Alex McGregor. After taking ten years to get to the first form from the third, the gap between the first and second is substantially shorter. […]
With his first directorial effort, the hugely disturbing but effective cult film Henry Portrait of a Serial Killer released in 1986, filmmaker John McNaughton single-handedly earned himself a spot in the Horror Hall of Fame. Since then, however, his career (other than the whimsically dark soft-core sex Wild Things) has been filled with amazing unappreciated
When Joseph was young, he sustained a disability in a farming accident which left him with a hurt leg, stopping him from living far from home. He resides in the farmhouse he grew up in and has been a teacher at the local school for many years. He is honest with himself I’m a mediocre

While a diagnosis seems appropriate, it does little to help illuminate the fact that the solution is equally perplexing in its fantasy space that is ridden with a calcified

The Story Line An unlucky bounty hunter is targeted by a furious madam and her goons when he eliminates her boss. A lot of people claimed that Shaft was the definition of a blaxploitation classic. I found it to be all sizzle and no steak after watching the movie. Sure, “Shaft” was cool, but he
The bigger they are, the harder they fall. At least, that’s what they say. And, Rudy Ray Moore was never very big, so it’s difficult to visualize the fall he took with Disco Godfather. Disco Godfather wasn’t just disappointing it singlehandedly sunk More’s career. In fact, it was a movie so bad, it seemed expertly
Lacking in credibility but highly energetic, “Line of Duty” features Aaron Eckhart as a cop from Birmingham, Alabama, whose day becomes drastically more complicated when he becomes embroiled in a kidnapping where the victim’s life is in immediate danger. This is the most recent work from Stephen C. Miller, who is the epitome of pro-police
Most Guys Are Losers sounds like a title with an unexpected twist, one where I would have been fine scoring a pseudo-feminist novel filled with angry diatribes about how men are trash. Who would want to date one until an Adonis with a six-pack and a bank balance of six figures shows up? I think
This is a very modest and limited production that throughout a single afternoon takes place almost in real time within the boundaries of a single location a cross-fit gym. Sam Athletes (Jerue) is primed for an attempt to see five world records set within 30 minutes accompanied by her trainer Shane (Grosse) who is also
