Although 1978’s Sex World is a porno variation on the premise of Westworld, it’s not exactly a parody. The movie makes explicit what the earlier, PG-rated movie heavily implied – that, if a futuristic fantasy vacation like the one in the film existed, its main appeal would be for tourists to live out their wildest…
TENET UHD 4K REVIEW
Tenet is a science-fiction action movie in which director Christopher Nolan has gone out of his way to confuse you. You thought Memento was confusing at first? Try Tenet. Tenet is an organization who has recruited a CIA operative, known as The Protagonist (John David Washington, Devil in a Blue Dress) to assist them in…
UHD Review – Deadly Games – Dial Code Santa Claus (Vinegar Syndrome)
I’ll just straight out admit that I did not anticipate what I got with Deadly Games – Dial Code Santa Claus (36.15 Code Pere Noel). I thought I had the killer Santa movie thing down at this point and had seen them all. I was wrong, very very wrong, and what I got here was…
SHERLOCK HOLMES: A GAME OF SHADOWS UHD REVIEW
Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows is the sequel to the 2009 blockbuster Sherlock Holmes. The film brings back the several key actors, Robert Downey, Jr. Jude Law, Eddie Marsan and Kelly Reilly.

UHD Review – Ghost in the Shell (Anime, 1995, Lionsgate)
Ghost in the Shell is a film I’ve lived with for a long time. The film was released originally in 1995, and SOMETIME in the late 1990’s I saw it for the very first time on VHS. I immediately fell for it’s hyperactive, cyber-sci-fi charms, and amazing action, coupled with a style of animation that…
Maniac UHD Review
The movie title “Maniac” has been used a few times throughout our cinematic history. Dwain Esper’s 1934 shocker, entitled Maniac, which featured Phyllis Diller, was strong stuff for its time especially when a cat’s eyeball is squeezed out of its head. The 1963 Hammer film starring Kerwin Mathews also titled Maniac was decent but nothing…
ZOMBIE UHD REVIEW
Whether the film is called Zombie, Zombi, Zombi 2 or Zombie Flesh Eaters, this movie, which I’ll be referring to as ‘Zombie’ is one of the most beloved walking dead films by legions of horror fans. Directed by Lucio Fulci, known by horror cinephiles for his utterly brutal and nauseatingly gross horror flicks. Arguably, Zombie…
