UHD Review – Tremors – Arrow Video

There were actually quite a decent number of creature-features in the 90’s everything from Deep Rising to Mimic and beyond, but if we are going to rate them all, only one truly comes out on top and that would be 1990’s Tremors, directed by Ron Underwood and starring Kevin Bacon and Fred Ward. This film…

Blu-ray Review – Sins of the Flesh (Mondo Macabro)

I had zero idea what I was getting into with Sins of the Flesh when I put into my player, and the reason being is the first 5 minutes of the film tell a tale that can go either way. The opening of the film follows a group of women who are trying to have…


Blu-ray Review – 7 Seeds Part 1 (Sentai Filmworks)

7 Seeds is being qualified in the U.S. As a Netflix Original in the U.S. Despite having been created in Japan and released overseas first. Oh well, it’s a label, and I’m not watching it on Netflix, but the new Blu-ray from the always reliable Sentai Filmworks. I never got around to watching Lost when…


Tabletop Review – Alien RPG – Core Rulebook/Destroyer of Worlds (Free League)

I will admit being a little behind, but I just heard about 2 months ago about Free League Publishing’s recent Alien RPG, and as soon as I heard about it I knew I had to get my hands on it. The thing about Alien is, as good as the movies (some of them) are. The…


Drifting / White Tiger Blu-ray review

I must admit that I really enjoy the silent films that Kino Lorber has released over the years having found some amazing discoveries for me. The label recently released a silent film double-feature on Blu-ray-Drifting and White Tiger. Both films have a lot in common; they are from 1923, directed by Tod Browning and feature…


Play Misty for Me Blu-ray review ( Kino Lorber release)

Play Misty for Me is one of my favorite Clint Eastwood films mainly because I am a lifelong fan of suspenseful thrillers and horror movies, which this movie is. The movie not only stars Clint Eastwood, but it is also directed by him, and is noteworthy of being the first film that he directed. In…


Two Mules for Sister Sara Blu-ray review (Kino Lorber)

Two Mules for Sister Sara is another Western starring the great Clint Eastwood. This movie also stars another screen great in Shirley MacLaine (The Children’s Hour).  The film was co-written by Budd Boetticher, who was synonymous with Westerns, having directed plenty of them in the mid to late fifties.  At the helm for this film…
