I'm still going to rank the films out of 5 stars, and every title will be in bold; not just titles I have seen for the first time. Depending on their running time, I may or may not include documentaries. I will also include television shows, by season. No need to reserve more than one spot, apparently there is no text limit on this forum. I beat my 2003 total by a substantial amount, a final count at years end. Hopefully we get more people involved in this!

MODERATOR NOTE: In order to cut down on clutter, only one spot will be allowed for each member. Additional spots have been removed.

August 2005

~08/02~ The Last Man on Earth (1964) *** - Somewhat boring at times, and Price's performance wasn't his greatest, but the film's influence on movies like Night of the Living Dead and even Suspiria is quite obvious. I dug it.
~08/05~ Don't Torture a Duckling (1972) ***** - My favorite Fulci film. Virtually no gore, but it's proof that Fulci doesn't need gore to tell a good story.
~08/09~ The Devil's Rejects (2005) **** - I really liked this one. It was a lot better than House of 1000 Corpses, had a great soundtrack, and it was nice to see some familiar faces from the genre.
~08/10~ Pink Flamingos (1972) ***** - One of my favorite comedies of all time. Some will like it, some will hate it, but I love it.
~08/12~ Pet Sematary (1989) ****1/2 - Creepy and faithful adaption of the Stephen King novel, although it seems rather condensed in comparison.
~08/14~ Mondo Cane (1962) *** - Not as good nor as shocking as I was hoping, it mostly consisted of animal violence (some fake, some real). Pretty entertaining as an exploration of different cultures, however, and the film is just gorgeous to look at.
~08/16~ Bad Girls Go to Hell (1965) ***1/2 - Great cheesefest; the film is inept in every way yet highly enjoyable.
~08/16~ Another Day, Another Man (1966) **1/2 - Not near as good as Bad Girls Go to Hell, Another Day, Another Man is actually kind of boring in comparison. Some good cheese, but not quite enough to become a camp classic.
~08/18~ Flying Saucers Over Hollywood: The Plan 9 Companion (1992) ***1/2 - Interesting and entertaining documentary on Ed Wood and his work, focusing primarily on Plan 9 From Outer Space. Though it was 2 hours long (longer than the Plan 9 itself), it never overstayed its welcome, making this a must-see for any fans of Wood.
~08/18~ Polyester (1981) ***** - Classic Waters; less rude than his previous films, but still funny as hell. This is the film I'd recommend to people just starting to get into his movies.
~08/24~ Lisa and the Devil (1973) **** - Doesn't make a lot of sense, but I really dug the stylish visuals and the creepiness of it all. There are certain sequences in this film that make up for all the slow-moving parts, and that really shows what a great filmmaker Bava really was. It's definitely easy to see how others have been influenced by it.
~08/24~ Glen or Glenda (1953) **1/2 - Campy, but far too preachy and boring. Wood seems to have lost his grip on the material right from the beginning, not quite knowing what the film should be about. Is it an "educational" film to spread tolerance throughout the U.S.? Or is it a sleazy B-movie that doesn't make any sense whatsoever?
~08/24~ A Lizard in a Woman's Skin (Schizoid cut) (1971) ***1/2 - I really liked the atmosphere of this film, even though it can't come close to Fulci's next giallo, Don't Torture a Duckling. The story was great, and you can tell Fulci really had fun with this film. The bat sequence is probably one of my favorite scenes in a Fulci film, second only to the chain whipping in Duckling. Recommended to anyone interested in Fulci's contributions to the genre.
~08/27~ The Dead Next Door (1985) *** - Fun zombie romp with great gore and a good story. It's quite obvious that the director is a fan himself what with all the homages to other horror flicks. I found this one highly enjoyable and worth a look if you're a zombie fan.
~08/27~ I Drink Your Blood (1970) ****1/2 - A rabies-infected satanic hippie cult goes on a murderous rampage in a small town. Need I say more? This is one of the best exploitation films ever made.
~08/29~ Witchboard (1986) ***1/2 - Not as fun as Night of the Demons, but still good. Witchboard is a much more serious production, but there are quite a few cheesy scenes that one cannot help laughing at. The characters were solid and although the acting was somewhat stilted (but not all that bad), one can't help but care about them. Definitely a film to hold your interest.
~08/31~ Les Raisins de la Mort (The Grapes of Death) (1978) ****1/2 - Amazing French film; can't believe I waited so long to see it. Directed by Jean Rollin, this may just be his best film besides The Living Dead Girl. A must-see if you love French horror or Rollin's work or both.

September 2005

~09/03~ Touch of Death (1988) ***1/2 - Considered by many to be crap, but I liked the dark humor Fulci incorporated throughout the film. The ending made no sense whatsoever, though. Still, worth seeing.
~09/03~ The Psycho Lover (aka The Loving Touch) (1969) **** - Boring at times, but I really loved the feel of this sleazy psycho-killer flick from the late 60's. The ending is actually quite depressing and reminded me a lot of the ending to DePalma's Blow Out... very effective even if not true to the tone of the film.
~09/03~ Doctor Gore (aka The Body Shop) (1973) ***** - I used to absolutely hate this film but it has really grown on me after a couple of viewings. It's a shame that the director (who also played the creepy doc of the title) died so soon after this film was completed and that he didn't make more movies of this ilk.
~09/04~ Heat of Madness (1966) **1/2 - Not bad, but then again this just wasn't sleazy enough for me. The characters, with a couple of exceptions, were pretty unlikeable and the main character got on my nerves after a while. The Psycho Lover, which was paired with this film on the SWV DVD, is much much better.
~09/04~ A Lizard in a Woman's Skin (uncut version) ****1/2 - Despite Shriek Show's crappy presentation of this cut of the film, the uncut version is a lot better than the Schizoid cut, pan and scan or not. The scenes that were cut from the Schizoid version, while not crucial to the plot developments, are very effective and it is nice to have them back in the film. My rating this time around reflects not only how these additions help the film, but also how much I liked the film after watching it a second time around... it grew on me quite a bit more than before. I now regard it as one of Fulci's best, right behind Don't Torture a Duckling and Zombi 2.
~09/05~ The Curious Dr. Humpp (1967) ** - I was rather disappointed in this one. I'm glad I own it because it's a Something Weird disc, but the film itself is rather boring.
~09/11~ A Dirty Shame (2004) **** - A great return to the offensiveness that makes John Waters movies (particularly his early efforts) so damn funny. Kinda falls apart near the end, but the first half of the film is as good as anything the man has ever done. Tracey Ullman is comic gold. Highly recommended!
~09/14~ The Card Player (2004) **** - A modern thriller that is entertaining despite being a far cry from Argento's earlier works. The pace drags a little bit towards the middle, but the viewer is really pulled into the story right from the beginning. Good acting (despite the horrendous dubbing; Anchor Bay would have done well to include the Italian dub with subtitles), great direction (though much different from Argento's other films), and a fine electronic score from Claudio Simonetti. Not much gore, but the autopsy scenes are nice and icky. Well worth watching.
~09/17~ Shock Treatment (1981) **1/2 - A few great scenes and musical numbers, but for some reason it just doesn't gel together as well as it could have. This could be because the movie makes no sense whatsoever, but that's just my opinion. While watching Shock Treatment, it got to the point where I couldn't wait for it to be over, even though I'm a big fan of Jessica Harper and enjoyed some of the references to The Rocky Horror Picture Show. I'd been wanting to see this movie for years, so in the end it was a big disappointment. I dug a lot of the songs, though.
~09/17~ Critters (1986) ***1/2 - Fun movie! Not a lot of substance, but then again not many films of this ilk have any to begin with. I particularly enjoyed it because I'm a big fan of Dee Wallace Stone. Great special effects, music, and acting; any fan of sci-fi comedies should see this one!
~09/20~ Dolores Claiborne (1994) ***** - What can I say besides this movie other than it was outstanding? This film has good performances all-around (although Jennifer Jason Leigh had a tendency to overact) and amazing direction. It moved me more than any film I can remember watching in a long while. Not sure if I consider the movie to be better than the book because they're both pretty equal in terms of greatness. If you're a fan of the novel or of Stephen King in general, I highly recommend that you check this one out.
~09/21~ High Tension (2003) ***1/2 - I really liked High Tension despite the terrible ending and the nonsensical "twist" that is supposed to make the movie "original". For one thing, this flick is a direct rip-off of Dean Koontz's book Intensity... and is pretty faithful up until the last half hour. It's surprising Koontz didn't sue. The "twist" was actually spoiled for me, so I could see it coming, but let's put it this way: I'm glad it was spoiled; if I hadn't known about the ending beforehand, my intelligence would have been insulted. I won't spoil it for anyone, but it completely ruins my love for the rest of the film (seeing it in its native language might have helped as well, as the dubbing is terrible and for some reason switches back and forth from English to French... for how much French is spoken in the dubbed version, they could have just released the damned thing in that language instead). This could have been so much better if they hadn't tried to make it different from other films of its ilk.
~09/25~ Forbidden Zone (1980) **** - Bizarre musical from composer Danny Elfman and his band The Mystic Knights of Oingo Boingo, with amazing, mind-boggling performances by Susan Tyrrell as the evil Queen Doris of the 6th Dimension and Hervé Villechaize as her King. This one certainly was... different... but the music was awesome, as were the visuals. It was never boring, and since it's barely an hour long, wasn't a chore to get through. I imagine its charm would have worn off had this been a longer movie, so it's just perfect the way it is. I liked some of the songs more than others, but "Witch's Egg", performed by Susan Tyrrell, is by far my favorite. Any cult movie fan should see this movie.
~09/28~ Single White Female (1992) ***1/2 - Better-than-average thriller with great performances from Bridget Fonda and Jennifer Jason Leigh. Fell apart somewhat near the end, where it materialized into the predictable battle between good and evil, but I like the fact that the movie doesn't exactly end on an uplifting note. Definitely worth a look.
~09/30~ Flesh For Frankenstein (1973) ***** - When I first saw Flesh For Frankenstein, I was about 10 or 11; not old enough to truly appreciate how good this film really is. Back then, the humor flew way over my head and I thought the main point was sex and violence, so I disliked it through and through. Now, however, I finally realize what a fantastic movie this is. The photography is amazing and Udo Kier's performance is so over-the-top that it becomes brilliant. I appreciate the humor this time around and think it is remarkably funny. This is one movie that will be in constant rotation in my household.

October 2005

~10/01~ Blood For Dracula (1974) ****1/2 - I was around 10 or 11 when I saw Flesh For Frankenstein for the first time; it wasn't until three years ago that I finally got a chance to see its companion piece, Blood For Dracula. It isn't as overtly gory as the other movie (at least not until the last few minutes), but director Paul Morrisey has upped the amount of sex, making it a very erotic film. Udo Kier once again delivers a deliciously campy performance, but Joe Dallesandro is stiff and wooden (no pun intended, hehe), not to mention how unlikable his character is this time around. He's the hero, but you can't exactly root for him, so you are left to root for Dracula in his quest for "wergins". The photography is sloppier than Flesh For Frankenstein, the accents of the foreign actors make dialogue somewhat difficult to understand, and the humor isn't nearly as potent, but it is still very effective and enjoyable to watch. There is a LOT to like about Blood For Dracula, so I highly recommend it.
~10/01~ The Making of 'The Fly': Fear of the Flesh (2005) **** - Great documentary on the making of Cronenberg's The Fly, with interviews by many of the cast and crew. It's lengthy-- longer than the film itself!-- and very informative (even with the noticeable absense of David Cronenberg; the commentary on the DVD more than makes up for that), giving you a better understanding of what went on behind-the-scenes. Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis (who were in a real relationship at the time) tell about how they got involved with the film and how they prepared for it, praising Cronenberg's directorial abilities to no end. Required viewing for any fan of the film or for anyone interested in the filmmaking process.
~10/02~ Flesh For Frankenstein (1973) (w/ commentary) ***** - Fantastic commentary with director Paul Morrissey and Udo Kier, along with film historian Maurice Yacowar. If you love the film, definitely give this track a listen.
~10/02~ The Fly (1986) (w/ commentary) ***** - Any commentary that David Cronenberg does is gold, and this is no exception. He is never boring and keeps you entertained throughout, constantly bombarding the viewer with facts about the film and how it was made, including his thoughts on how it holds up today. Consider this a must-listen.
~10/03~ A History of Violence (2005) **** - Much more straightforward than a lot of Cronenberg's work, but still quite potent indeed, with particularly strong character development and a great sense of ingenuity throughout the plot (even if the "man with a secret" plot device has been done to death). Viggo Mortenson delivers a very real and sympathetic performance, as does Maria Bello as his wife and Ashton Holmes as his son. The whole family dynamic is well-established right from the beginning, and we find as the movie progresses that we care about these people, which is very important in such a character-driven film. Of course, Cronenberg doesn't skimp on the violence and the film is very gory indeed, although not to the extent that his earlier films have been. Very entertaining, even if the ending leaves a lot to be desired... perhaps there will be a sequel?
~10/08~ The Thing (1982) (w/ commentary) ***1/2 - The Thing isn't as great as I used to think (mostly because the first half of the movie is so damn sloooowww), but it's still a lot of fun and the special effects and acting are outstanding. The commentary with John Carpenter and Kurt Russell is priceless.
~10/09~ Don't Look Now (1975) ***** - Classic thriller with a fantastic Pino Donaggio score and marvelous acting from Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie. This movie BLEEDS atmosphere and the ending is one of the most shocking and depressing finales to a movie that I have ever seen. Love it all around, even the lengthy 5 minute sex scene that is both erotic and touching, especially when you consider what happens at the end. One of my all-time favorites.
~10/14~ Phantasm (1979) **** - Great scary horror film that is just as entertaining as I remembered.
~10/15~ Psycho II (1983) **** - A favorite of mine from when I was younger; I think Psycho II is in many ways better than the original film.
~10/15~ Opera (1987) ****1/2 - A fantastic Dario Argento film. It's not perfect, but Opera is certainly up there among his best.
~10/15~ Blood and Black Lace (1964) ****
~10/22~ The Wicker Man (1972) *****
~10/23~ Polyester (1981) *****
~10/29~ Strangers on a Train (1951) ****
~10/29~ He Knows You're Alone (1980) ***** - A guilty pleasure and one of my favorite slashers.
~10/30~ Dawn of the Dead (1978) *****
~10/30~ Land of the Dead (2005) ****1/2
~10/31~ Suspiria (1977) *****

November 2005

~11/01~ Halloween II (1981) ****1/2
~11/01~ The Prowler (1981) *** - This movie is pretty dull, but the awesome kills and spooky atmosphere make it totally worth watching.
~11/03~ Cannibal Holocaust (1979) *****
~11/06~ Jackie Brown (1997) ***** - My favorite Tarantino film and one of my all-time favorite movies.
~11/10~ Nail Gun Massacre (1985) *1/2 - This movie was utterly awful... words can't describe it. It was amusing at first; the woman at the counter in the convenience store reading her lines from a visible script had me in hysterics, but the music, bad acting and pacing, and lack of a plot really got on my nerves after a while.
~11/10~ Season of the Witch (1973) ****1/2 - One of Romero's most underrated films.
~11/12~ Lust in the Dust (1985) ***1/2 - Lighthearted and fun western parody. I mostly rented this to see Divine, and ended up enjoying it quite a bit.
~11/13~ Naked Lunch (1991) *** - Didn't make a whole lot of sense, and I consider it one of my least favorite Cronenberg films, but there was something about it that I did enjoy somewhat.
~11/13~ Elizabeth (1999) ***
~11/13~ The Changeling (1980) **** - I can't believe I waited so long to see this one. I'd heard a long time ago about how scary it was, and I rented it once but never had the chance to sit down and watch it. Very creepy, and definitely worth a look.
~11/15~ The Bird With the Crystal Plumage (1970) *****
~11/15~ Happy Birthday to Me (1981) ****1/2
~11/16~ Howling II: Your Sister Is a Werewolf (1985) **** - Don't ask me why I love this movie, because I certainly couldn't tell ya. The cheesy end credits with Sybil Danning ripping her top off 20 million times is worth the price of the DVD alone. The awful recreation of the ending to the original The Howling also never fails to get a laugh, and I love the 80's new wave song that plays throughout the movie. One film review book called this an "alternative classic" and I'm inclined to agree!
~11/19~ Cannibal Man (1974) **** - Great Spanish horror oddity that has a unique plot that really drags you into the movie. Not a whole lot of gore by today's standards, but for its time I'm sure it was considered very shocking and was probably cut. Dubbing isn't too bad either, and the acting is pretty good as well. I mostly got AB's double feature DVD because of Mountain of the Cannibal God, but Cannibal Man was a nice surprise, even if the title is misleading because the main character is not a cannibal at all. The ending is almost quaint and a nice change of pace. Highly recommended.
~11/20~ Strip Nude For Your Killer (1975) *** - I kinda liked this one, but overall it was somewhat disappointing and not near as fun or as wild as I thought it was going to be. Glad I finally got the chance to watch it, but I can't see myself wanting to watch it more than once. Great musical score, though. It really sets the tone for the film, which overall could have been better if it were more violent and sleazy. Thankfully I rented this before buying or I would have been even more disappointed!
~11/20~ Scream Bloody Murder (1973) ****1/2 - Great, cheesy fun! The killer was so pathetic that I kept cracking up every time he opened his mouth. This one is a real gem that is not to be missed if you like movies of the SWV variety.
~11/20~ Mountain of the Cannibal God (1978) ***1/2 - I'd seen this before until the title of Slave of the Cannibal God and enjoyed it, even though it wasn't one of my favorite cannibal films. It still isn't a favorite, but it's fun and a worthy addition to anyone's cannibal collection. The featurette on the AB DVD is interesting, but creepy because it makes Sergio Martino seem almost shady (watch it and you'll see why).
~11/23~ Maniac (1980) ***** - A huge favorite of mine and one of the best slasher films ever made. Joe Spinell's performance is amazing; you must see it to believe it.
~11/24~ Maniac (1980) (w/ commentary) ***** - One of the best commentaries I have ever heard. Lustig and crew speak almost nonstop about the movie, and it never gets boring as most commentaries usually do.
~11/25~ There's Always Vanilla (1971) *** - Not as bad I was expecting it to be. I actually think Ray Laine and Judith Ridley had great chemistry and gave some pretty decent performances. Worth a look.
~11/25~ Sisters of Death (1978) *** - Not bad, but I much prefer its co-feature, Scream Bloody Murder.
~11/25~ 30 Days in Hell: The Making of "The Devil's Rejects" (2005) ****1/2 - Fantastic documentary covering each day of shooting The Devil's Rejects. It's funny, because this feels a bit overly long, yet it still feels condensed because they cram all 30 days into the documentary. I wish they would have covered some of the post-production aspects of making a movie, though, such as editing and CGI.
~11/25~ Tombs of the Blind Dead (Spanish version) (1971) **** - I really like Tombs, but it's not as good as I remembered it. The pace really drags and it is a tad too talky in parts. Still, the Templars themselves make up for it.
~11/26~ Return of the Evil Dead (Spanish version) ****1/2 - I've seen the English version of ROTED, but the Spanish version is a first for me. It is better than Tombs of the Blind Dead and The Ghost Galleon, but can't quite measure up to Night of the Seagulls (even though I gave them the same rating). Great, gory fun.
~11/26~ Pecker (1998) (w/ commentary) ****1/2 - While unable to measure up to the masterpiece that is Serial Mom, Pecker is better than both Cecil B. Demented and A Dirty Shame, making it the best of John Waters' most recent work. Aside from the fact that both Edward Furlong and Brendan Sexton III are dead sexy, this has Christina Ricci, Mink Stole, and Patty Hearst in the same movie. If that is not the makings of a great cast, I dunno what is.
~11/26~ The Devil's Rejects (2005) (w/ commentary) ***** - This has to be the best movie of the last ten years, and Rob Zombie's commentary is fantastic, giving great insight into the making of the movie (and without much overlap from the 2 1/2 hour documentary!). A highly recommended listen.
~11/27~ The Candy Snatchers (1973) **** - This is a great undiscovered gem that you will surely love if you enjoy movies in the vein of Last House on the Left. It's slightly more sophisticated than Last House, but the plot is all over the place, so it isn't as good in my eyes. Definitely worth a look.
~11/27~ The Ghost Galleon (1974) ***1/2 - The Ghost Galleon is only enjoyable because of some great setpieces and an abundance of cheese throughout. This should have been great, as the ghost ship is easily the best idea (but most poorly executed) of the whole Blind Dead series. Overall, a disappointment when compared to the other films, but on its own it is enjoyable as a cheesefest.
~11/27~ Night of the Seagulls (1975) ****1/2 - My personal favorite of the Blind Dead films, Night of the Seagulls is surprisingly well made and, like Return of the Evil Dead, is never boring. Certainly merits comparison to The Wicker Man in terms of overall style, which is why I decided to watch that film next. In a way, it makes a nice double feature.
~11/28~ The Wicker Man (1973) *****
~11/28~ Breeders (1986) ***** - It is often said that Ed Wood's Plan 9 From Outer Space is the best bad movie ever made; I beg to differ. Breeders, a direct-to-video flick released on VHS by Wizard Video in the 1980's and written/directed by gay porn expert Tim Kincaid, is my cheddar of choice, and I'm not afraid to say it's a favorite of mine. The plot (if you could call it that) is a delirious and almost sexy--the key word here is almost--send-up of the bad 50's sci-fi epics from which Plan 9 originated, and I think it's safe to say that the filmmakers weren't taking themselves too seriously with their story of New York "virgins" being stalked and raped by a hideous, slimy alien. I say "virgins" with quotation marks because these girls give streetwalkers a run for their money in the hair and makeup department. The alien, complete with glowing green eyes and visible zipper, is unscary (as is to be expected), even though the gore effects are impressive. However, the real charm of this film lies in the hilariously bad performances--particularly Lance Newman as clueless detective Dale Andriotti and big-haired Teresa Farley as Dr. Gamble Pace--and the marvelous, over-the-top, Carrie-inspired ending, which is worth the price of the DVD alone. And speaking of the DVD, kudos to MGM for the sparkling 16x9 anamorphic transfer (!) and for including the original Wizard Video Breeders preview that used to play before such titles as Dreamaniac, Robot Holocaust, and Headless Eyes. Ahh, those were the days.
~11/28~ Poltergeist (1982) ***** - This movie used to scare the shit out of me as a kid, and for that it will always hold a place in my heart. However, it is also a film full of characterization and one where you genuinely care about the characters. Definitely a personal favorite.
~11/28~ Small Change (1976) ****1/2 - Adorable French film that presents vignettes from the lives of several children. Normally I would avoid films of this ilk, but I had to watch it in French class and was surprised to find myself enjoying it. Small Change is honest and it is a film that everyone can relate to, because everyone was a kid at one time or another.

December 2005

~12/04~ Sleepaway Camp (1983) ***** - My favorite cheesy movie right next to Breeders, and my favorite slasher film besides He Knows You're Alone. One of the best things about Sleepaway Camp is that, campy performances aside, everything feels authentic; the kids act like real kids, and the camp feels like a real camp where you would go to spend the summer. But possibly the very best thing about Sleepaway Camp is that it has me in hysterics the entire time, only to shock and disturb me with the outrageous and unpredictable ending. Well, at least it was unpredictable the first time around.
~12/11~ Phantom of the Paradise (1974) ***** - One of my favorite movies of all-time. As much as I love Rocky Horror, I still think Phantom is 1000 times better.
~12/14~ Prison A Go-Go! (2003) **** - Much of the humor was juvenile, but I think this is one of the funniest spoofs made in a long time. You can tell the guys who made this are fans of the WIP genre and really took the time to make this feel authentic. Prison A Go-Go! has the feel of a Troma film (Lloyd Kaufman even has a small role!), but is much better than that. Mary Woronov was wasted in a small role, but Rhonda Shear was great in this. I'm going to have to check out more of her stuff. The "Mamie Bundy" scene was also pretty amazing and funny. Highly recommended.
~12/17~ I Drink Your Blood (1970) ****1/2 - Great drive-in classic. Must see for exploitation fans!

1/13 - Videodrome (1983) (with Cronenberg commentary) 9.5/10
1/13 - Fast Company (1979) 7.5/10 - Hard to believe that Cronenberg actually directed this as it's unlike any of his other films. As it stands though it's an enjoyable B movie with a pretty good cast but don't go in expecting much else.
1/14 - Sex and the City - The Complete 6th Season, Part 2 (2004) - Overall it was a fantastic series. I was engaged with it the whole way through. It was funny, smart, sexy and sometimes sad. Sarah Jessica Parker was pretty annoying at times but the supporting cast made up for that especially Chris Noth and Kyle MacLachlan. I highly enjoyed it.

8/24 - Swords of Vengeance (1978) 8/10 - Solid version of the story of the 47 loyal samurai with good direction and acting especially Chiba who is always a plus but i prefer Hiroshi Inagaki's 1962 version (Chushingura) more.
8/25 - Ringu (1998) 8/10
8/25 - Rasen (1998) 7.5/10 - Interesting direction to take but kinda falls apart near the end. Still a much better direction for the series to take as opposed to Ringu 2.
8/26 - Ringu 2 (1999) 6.5/10 - Not a very good follow up, only has a few good scenes plus the story is weak.
8/26 - Ringu 0 (2000) 7.5/10 - Enjoyable even if it still doesn't explain a lot, the end in the forest was great though.

10/14 - Old Boy (2003) 9/10 - Fucking brilliant film.
10/15 - High Tension (2003) 8/10 - Well directed, great gore and the twist actually made the film for me as up until that point I didn't find it THAT impressive.
10/16 - Versus (2000) 6/10 - Non-stop action isn't always a good thing...
10/16 - Fando and Lis (1967) 7/10
10/17 - Weekend (1967) 7/10
10/18 - Touching the Void (2003) 8/10
10/22 - Land of the Dead (2005) 8/10 - Loved the evolution of the zombies, John Leguizamo didn't bug me as much as I thought he would, the actors were decent, Romero's first movie in 2:35.1 and he made good use of it, the gore was great for the most part and it was extremely entertaining. On the other hand the story did feel rushed and choppy, the dwarf shootout was laughablly bad, the CGI blood was annoying, and as much as i liked the gore i felt there was too much focus on it. I know, i know but I just thought the film focused too much on action and gore and not enough on story or characters (I was just rolling my eyes at the part near the end when the driver of Dead Reckoning backed up to shoot the zombies, completely unnesessary!). Bottom line, it was great to see Romero back doing a zombie movie and even though the story needed to be fleshed out more it was a fun ride and a great zombie flick. I mean compared to any other recent horror films this is top notch but compared to Romero's other films theres room for improvement.
10/23 - Game of Death (1978) 6/10
10/23 - Land of the Dead (2005)8.5/10
10/25 - Alone in the Dark (1982) 8/10 - An overlooked horror gem.
10/25 - The Fly (1986) 9/10 - Been awhile since i've watched this and i forgot just how good it really is, especially the make-up effects.
10/26 - Salesman (1969)
10/27 - The Candy Snatchers (1973) 7.5/10 - More on the lighter side compared to other 70's exploitation flicks but the crime thriller story was interesting, seeing James Whitworth (Jupiter from The Hills Have Eyes) in a small role was very cool and the ending was simply fantastic.
10/28 - The Big Boss (1971) 7.5/10
10/28 - The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane (1976) 9/10 - Such an underrated little thriller, Jodie Foster is fantastic and Martin Sheen is just a little TOO good at playing a sick perv.
10/29 - The Mummy's Shroud (1967) 7/10
10/29 - Enter the Dragon (1973) 9/10 - The quintessential Bruce Lee film.
10/30 - Helter Skelter (1976) 7.5/10 - Steve Railsback is great as Manson.

November

11/3 - Crimes and Misdemeanors (1989) 7.5/10
11/4 - Your Vice is a Locked Room and Only I Have the Key (1972) 7.5/10 - Pretty good gialli with a nice touch of Poe's The Black Cat, Luigi Pistilli and Ivan Rassimov are always fun to watch and Edwige Fenech is the definition of beauty.
11/4 - Tiger on the Beat (1988) 8/10 - great mix of action and comedy with Chow Yun Fat kicking ass all the way. The chainsaw fight was outstanding.
11/6 - Hard Boiled (1992) 9/10
11/6 - The Hunger (1983) 8/10

11/9 - From Dusk Till Dawn (1996) 9/10 - Such a fantastic film with an amazing cast (Fred Williamson, Tom Savini, Danny Trejo, Harvey Keitel etc...).
11/12 - House of 1000 Corpses (2003) 7/10 - Good but definitely flawed.
11/13 - The Devil's Rejects (2005) 8.5/10 - The casting (William Forsythe and Geoffrey Lewis especially) along with the 70's atmosphere totally makes the movie. The ending was my favorite part.

11/25 - Magnolia (1999) 6/10
11/26 - Race with the Devil (1975) 8/10 - Warren Oates and Peter Fonda make a great team.
11/26 - Fear No Evil (1981) 6.5/10 - Some interesting ideas but an uneven balance between cheesy and serious scenes.
11/28 - Long Weekend (1978) 8/10 - A low key Aussie horror flick.

12/18 - Firefox (1982) 7.5/10
12/20 - Pink Cadillac (1989) 8/10 - A nice change of pace for Eastwood and the cast had so many familiar faces (Geoffrey Lewis, Bill Moseley, Bryan Adams, Jim Carrey, John Dennis Johnston etc...).
12/21 - Adiós, Sabata (1971) 7.5/10 - Yul Brynner is good but Van Cleef is the true Sabata!

12/28 - The Hidden (1987) 8/10 - A great 80's action/sci-fi/buddy cop flick!
12/28 - The Hidden II (1994) 4/10 - A crappy 90's direct-to-video sequel that nobody wanted.
12/31 - Homicide: Life on the Street - The Complete 7th Season (1998-1999)
12/31 - Homicide: The Movie (2000)

JANUARY

• 1/1 Killing Zoe, ****
  I love this film, and always have. Probably watched it 10 times or more. Got home from a New Years Eve party and just put it in to rock out to the opening titles, and ended up watching the whole thing again. The only reason it doesn't get five stars is that there are maybe two or three very minor stutters in the acting (Zed delivering a line badly to Zoe about not speaking French, him again looking away before firing a gun, etc.), but overall, this is an independant tour de force directorial debut.
• 1/9 Freaks, *****
  A masterpiece. The climactic end scenes are nothing less than harrowing.
• 1/13 A Very Long Engagement, *****
  Superb job. The film is a technical ace, and the story is very well crafted. It's an excellent showcase of contrasts; brutal graphic violence and sensuous sexual moments, panoramic views of both the idyllic French countryside and of the horrific trench battlefields. Expert photography abounds. I had a sustained interest in the characters as well, their lives so meticulously intertwined, and of course, our heroine Mathilde's hope and perseverance holding fast throughout the film. And even in the midst of war, there are finely placed, subtle humors which might seem out of place under another director's hands but instead come off very naturally here. Director Jeunet does recycle a few of the devices used in Amelie, but they work here just as well as they did in that movie (mainly, a narrator breaking in briefly to announce certain nuances about various characters' personas, and to reveal timeline juxtapositions). Highly recommended.
• 1/16 The Key, ***
  Good looking film. Although the story/dialogue left a little to be desired, the general subject matter was enough to keep me in this one. Production value is high and I'm a sucker for women in garters and backseams, thus the three stars.
• 1/19 The Dead Next Door, ***
  In the first five minutes of this movie, I had pegged it as a shoo-in for a 2 star, or less. However, while the acting is pretty fuckin' bad, as are the production values, well, and the script - ahem - while these things may leave a lot to be desired, the technical aspects of editing and plot aren't too shabby. The story moves along coherently, and there are enough decent plot devices to add dimension to it. This movie was obviously made by genre fans rather than career minded 'filmmakers', so I give them a pass on the acting and cornball production values. They did a great job of telling a good story with minimal production dinero, and they must have had a great time making the movie. It's actually pretty funny, in that bad movie way, and there are constant references to genre icons (the characters being named Raimi, Carpenter, etc.). The crew even had fun with the credits, condemning video pirates to duplication hell, etc. Bruce Campbell is even credited with post-production sound. And hell, any production that thanks Entenmann's Bakery is alright in my book. Recommended for zombie genre fans with a sense of humor and/or a love of shoe-string budget filmmaking.
• 1/21 Kind Hearts and Coronets, ***1/2 Dry, witty black comedy. Although included in the Anchor Bay set commemorating him, and even though he plays eight roles, Alec Guinness doesn't really get to do much here but die... over and over. While Guinness pulled off a crafty coup with his portrayal of so many characters, it seems slightly misplaced in the set due to the fact that he's not the focus of the film (understandable since this was his first Ealing comedy, which I suppose is reason enough itself to include it in the set). Nonetheless, Dennis Price is right on the mark in the lead, delivering his morbidly humorous lines with a deftness worthy of Guinness himself. So, Given Price's performance, and regardless Guinness' back seat role(s), if you're into early British comedies, especially those on the dark side, definitely check it out.
• 1/21 Miranda, **1/2 Boring as hell, and tedious. As with The Key, this second film in the Tinto Brass collection is filmed very well, but the story is even less intriguing than The Key. Tinto really knows how to film women, this is a certainty, but he falls off in the plot department.
• 1/29 Kung Pow!, *** Pretty freakin' funny.
• 1/29 Thumb Wars, **1/2 Has it's moments, but the whole thumb thing just goes over my head.
• 1/31 Ray, **** Great movie. I was expecting a little more coverage of the latter day Ray, but I guess the 50s-60s were the heyday, so there ya go. Fucking beautiful film, what with the immaculate old cars and era buildings and period fashions and swank furnishings and all of it... it just looked great. As for the acting, it was right on as well, and not just Foxx. But, speaking of Foxx, I never saw him here, which I thought I would; the guy really is believable as Charles. Damn good job. So, what about the music? Well, what can you say? It speaks for itself, so if you're judging the movie on that, it should get all five stars. The soundtrack just flat out kicks ass, but then, I wouldn't expect any less in that department.

FEBRUARY

• 2/3 Switchblade Sisters, ***1/2 Great, mildly sleazy flick! It moves along at a good pace and has a good, workable storyline that it sticks to. Fun grungy action and dialogue. Funny as hell to see a young Don Stark too (Donna's dad, Bob, from That 70's Show).
• 2/12 Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle Unrated Edition, *** Got trapped over at a friends and was forced to watch this movie, which looked horrible to me from the ads for it. Lo and behold, it was actually pretty damned funny. Plus, it was paced and edited well, so not only is it funny, but there's a good flow to it as well. Comparisons to Office Space and Half Baked are inevitable, as the movie certainly does borrow from these and others, but if you're into stoner humor, don't just write this one off because of that; I think it stands up on it's own very well.
• 2/14 Mark of the Devil, *** Fairly captivating witch trial vehicle which touches on the excesses and desperation to hold onto power of the church and corrupt local authority more than you would expect from a strictly exploitive film. It never delves very deeply into any real inspection of these themes, but I was surprised at how many angles it glanced at them from. The film moves along at a pretty good pace, and although it doesn't quite live up to the legendary billing, the amount of torture and gore is ample. On the negative side, the acting ranges from passable to uninspired, and the soundtrack is pretty damned hideous which took me out of the movie a few times (there is one recurring, creepy string cue though which did work very well).
• 2/19 Killer Nun, *** Kind of slow but well paced, and the plot is a bit minimal but it does play out like a better giallo. Not the best photography composition, but I did like the look of the movie and it had some interesting scenes.
• 2/20 Marquis de Sade's Justine, ***1/2 Excellent production, probably the most polished of Franco's works I've seen to date. This is the film I've always wanted from him. Unlike the previous films I've seen of his, this one is edited well, the sets and props are right on, and the photography is beautiful - the movie looks great, moves along quite coherently, and just seems "finished". The supporting cast is terrific, but that brings me to the one drawback in my mind, which was the lead's effort. Romina Power looks perfect for the part (she looks quite delectable), but she's a dead fish when it comes to acting. I didn't hold a lot of sympathy for the character as Power played her. She had all of the innocence down pat but absolutely none of the awakening lust, and as that is a central theme of the source material, Justine's battle between desire and virtue, the part must exhibit both aspects. Had Power done this, the movie would easily have got a 4 star rating from me. A word about the supplements on the Blue Underground dvd; be sure and check out the short interview piece with Franco and producer Harry Alan Towers, "The Perils and Pleasures of Justine", as it was illuminating, and very funny.
• 2/21 Night Train Murders, *** It took a lonnnng 40 minutes for this one to get kicking. It was plodding dreadfully along until then, but then it started getting all psychosexual and downright brutal. The last half of the movie makes up for the first with lots of in your face, unapologetic action and brutality which, quite frankly, one is more than ready for after the borfest leading up to it. Macha Méril, from Argento's 'Deep Red', puts on a wicked performance, first as a willing rape victim and then as an active instigator of further violence. It's a fairly good looking movie with some very striking imagery.
• 2/26 THX 1138, ***1/2 This was my first time to see this, and on first run, I felt that the plot and script seemed a bit disjointed, unconnected. Aside from this, I still liked it a lot as the photography, music and sound effects alone are curious and hypnotic. Very interesting, visually captivating movie. As for the updated treatment a la Lucas-Tinkering Inc., there were only two CGI scenes which were so obviously fake as to take me out of it. Fortunately, they're very quick cutaway scenes and don't interrupt the movie too greatly.
• 2/28 Napoleon Dynamite, *** It seems most people either love or hate this movie. I'm kind of in between. I liked it, but it's not as completely awesome as some wax on about. I thought the ending was extremely unclimactic. It seemed to end in the middle of it all. Still, some pretty funny situations are exhibited. It's at least worth a rental.
• 2/28 Casshern, *** Beautiful, dark sci-fi fantasy film which I couldn't finish because it was so damned long and it was late and well, the story just went on and on and on and on.... but the visuals are very kickass, hence the three stars.
• 2/29 Elf, **1/2 It made me laugh. A few times even.
• 2/29 Shaun of the Dead, *** Just as good the second time around.
• 2/29 Lady Death, ** Pretty standard Saturday morning cartoon fare, but with some pretty cool backgrounds and graphic violence during the climatic war scenes near the end. Horrible dialogue and voice acting though.

MARCH

• 3/5 All the Ladies Do It, ***1/2 The third and final film in the Tinto Brass collection is a powerhouse of eroticism. It's a much more lively picture than The Key or Miranda, both in the story and the sexual situations. Best film in the set, and probably the best Brass film I've seen so far.
• 3/12 Premutos: Lord of the Living Dead, *** Pretty entertaining piece of crap no-budget film. Some decently played period sets (medeival, WWII close combat, etc.). This is really not a 'good film', but it's great for a laugh and gets high marks for the gore factor, hence the three stars. The climactic ending is fucking ridiculous, in a good way.
• 3/18 Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, **** One of the best buddy flicks from the '70s. Character driven and introspective.
• 3/19 The Great Escape, ****1/2 Great ensemble cast, great flow, great sets, great photography... simply a great movie.
• 3/21 Who Done It?, ***1/2 Abbott and Costello murder mystery. Many funny skits, a well designed plot and script, good acting all around and a good pace.
• 3/25 Pardon My Sarong, *** Some obviously rehashed skits yet Abbott and Costello pull it off naturally and convincingly. Good adventure plot, but it's pretty weird watching honkey island natives and a doo wop band called The Inkspots.
• 3/27 The Last Temptation of Christ, **** Great casting, excellent production. The soundtrack of course brings it to yet another level altogether. The film is simply mesmerizing.

APRIL

• 4/3 Freeway (1996), ***1/2 At the same time brutal and funny as hell.
• 4/6 Sin City, **** Expertly crafted film with a jaw-dropping cast and a whole damned lotta heart.
• 4/9 The Child, *1/2 A little bitta creepy, a whole lotta crappy. The only reason this doesn't get a one star, vomit-stew rating is because it actually does have a passable pace and the shots are decently framed/composed... for the most part. But the plot is minimal, the action is minimal, and the kills and effects are minimal. Good lookin' Laurel Barnett is wasted on a horrible 'hysteric, can't-do woman' role. I think she just screams and covers her eyes pretty much the second half of the movie. Almost as annoying as the horrible vaudevillian, non-stop crescendo piano score. Crap.
• 4/10 Grizzly, *** Classic '70s man-against-nature cheese. WARNING; DVD is crap pan & scan. I love these kind of movies, and this one's pretty entertaining, but as with Day of the Animals (watched last year), this poor movie is damned to a pan and scan fate.
• 4/12 Kagemusha, **** Beautiful film with an engaging story. The production values here really come off vibrantly like a living Japanese scroll painting, with ample military pageantry, vivid colors, and frenzied action.
• 4/16 Ecstasy (1933), **1/2 Rather boring but technically well shot film. This early German talky suffers from the standard-of-the-day lack of much dialogue but some of the shots are really impressive for 1933. The camera moves quite a bit, especially in one indulgent exterior crane shot. A historical film curiosity in that we get to see a few minutes or so of Hedy Lamarr nekkid swimming in a lake and then running through the woods, as well as her performance of what may be cinema's first orgasm - but all of that can't really make up for the other 85 minutes of tedium in regards to plot. Still, the movie is shot well enough and what story there is comes off coherently enough to be spared a 'bad film' rating.
• 4/19 Tales of Terror, ***1/2 Nice to see Rathbone here, but this is really Price and Lorres' baby - the middle segment with them is great. Screenplay by Matheson helps the three stories along very nicely.
• 4/25 Maria Full of Grace, ***1/2 Very well done. Good camerawork and a fine cast tell a wrenching story.

MAY

• 5/1 The Dreamers, ***1/2 Great looking film and a rather twisted story about siblings and sexual awakening. It moved along well enough, but I think they could have done a little more in the character development department. That said, the story was interesting enough that it still held my attention. And first time actress Eva Green was most luscious indeed.
• 5/10 Kingdom of Heaven, **** Great looking spectacle, and a well told story too, if only a bit surface deep. The acting was fine, except that I think Orlando played it all too subdued - not sure if he was right for the part. And it was great to see Eva Green (from The Dreamers) again, even though her character was reduced to bystander status after the first half. As with Gladiator, the only real problem I have with Kingdom of Heaven is the MTV style editing during the battle scenes closeups. Sure, there is quite a lot of gore and carnage showing the brutality of war, but Scott's camera is too frenzied to really catch the determination and desperation during the middle of it all. I understand that he's trying to display the frantic pace of battle, and I don't think we should hold on every single shot, but I think there could be a little more balance between the two styles. Anyway, that's what I would do if I were Ridley Scott. Nevertheless, very recommended.
• 5/14 Kung Pow! ('Book on Tape' audio version), *** Still funny the second time around. All the dialogue and narration in this version is done by one guy in an exagerated monotone voice, which came off pretty damned funny.
• 5/15 Ed Gein, **1/2 This was not quite as bad as I'd heard it was. I'd say they got most of the, ahem, meat of the story right (although I'd have to do some refresher research to be sure, as it's been several years since I read about Gein). The production value is that of a decent made for tv movie, and the acting and dialogue was believable enough. The editing was fine in that the story was presented in mostly a linear fashion with a few flashbacks that worked well to flesh out Gein's backstory. I think they also did a good job of capturing the feel and look of 1950s rural Wisconsin. The brief archival news footage used for the credit sequences is certainly of interest to Gein-ophiles, and lastly, and maybe most importantly visually speaking anyway, the movie got the gruesome details down correctly. I'd give you examples, but I don't want to possibly spoil anything for you. A word of warning if indeed you are unfamiliar with the case... Eddy Gein was one sick mofo, so don't eat a big meal before watching. Recommended rental.
• 5/17 House of 1000 Corpses, *** Overall a pretty fun movie with good brutal action and imagery. Twisted folks and twisted humor... works for me.
• 5/17 The Devil's Rejects, **** This is the feelgood movie of the year - for ruthless outlaws, that is. It's gritty, grimy, ugly, relentless, and just plumb raw as fuck. It indulges greedily in exhibiting brutality for brutality's sake, not for some cheap thrills; there are no 'GOTCHA!' moments here - just a whole lot of blood, guts, and anarchistic abandon. Some of the humor is retained from 'HOTC', but it's not as overt, and this is a much more serious movie.
• 5/18 Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events, **** Great looking, sinister little story with biting (literally ), dark humor. I was afraid this was going to be another 'Jim Carey Show!', but he did fine and didn't suck up the whole movie. In fact, the kids are very strong characters, and they do very well portraying them. The supporting characters are strong as well, so I was happily surprised by this one.
• 5/19 Star Wars; Revenge of the Sith, *** This is by far the best movie of the 2nd trilogy, both visually and plot-wise, but Hayden Christensen still just kills it for me; every single line he has takes me right out of the movie, he sucks so bad. The story actually made sense, and each plot point had a purpose, as opposed to the previous two movies, which took meaningless, meandering, aimless steps to get from point A to B. I thought imagery was great, far better than the previous two movies. Palpatine was a right good rat bastard, and Yoda kicked butt. Grievous' fight with Kenobi was pretty cool too. And wookies! RAARRGGHH!!!
• 5/22 Dreamscape, *** Never saw this 80s gem back in the day. Sure, it's dated, but it's got an interesting premise and it's played out fairly well. And hell, it's got genre workhorse Max Von Sydow going for it... can't go wrong there. It's also good to see Sully from Commando here, being his usual bad self.
• 5/24 Million Dollar Baby, **** Fucking damn... didn't see that one coming. Great performance from Swank, and Eastwood and Freeman live up to their names. Great direction, solid story, hardcore pull no punches ending.
• 5/26 High Tension, **** Great job of re-establishing the killer genre. Hard, gritty movie that stands right up there with the hardest from the 70s/80s. In an age of Screams, Valentines, and IKWYDLSs, it's real refreshing to see movies like this being made again. Seeing both this and Devil's Rejects just ten days apart gives me some much needed hope for horror film in general.
• 5/27 The Last Man on Earth, *** The narration in the first section just about kills this for me. I think it would have played much better had they not tried telling us everything that was happening before our eyes; it would have been much creepier had there been the natural silence that would occur in such a scenario. And the acting in the flashback sequence was just bad. Nonetheless, there is a great visual story here, and Price saves the film, hence the three stars. I think I'll pull a Scorcese and give this one a second spin sometime without the sound.
• 5/28 The Stendhal Syndrome, **** One of Argento's deepest, most developed movies I've ever seen. An interesting, dynamic plot with a compelling vehicle (the main character's affliction) to move it along. The movie benefits greatly from a very effective Ennio Morricone score.
• 5/31 Daughter of Dr. Jekyll **1/2 Standard 50s spookum fare, but with decent plot and editing in general. Story is predictable by today's standards, but it still works technically. My main problem with the movie is that it doesn't really know exactly what it wants to be, jumbling several monster lores together; here we have thrown together in one case everything from vampires to werewolves, as well as a little of Jekyll and Hyde to justify the title. Disregard for traditional monster lore aside, the movie did hold my interest throughout. A recommended rental for those into 50s frights.

JUNE

• 6/4 Alice Cooper - The Nightmare, **** So good to see this TV special again. Great showmanship by the two masters, Cooper and Vincent Price. The sets are pretty lo-tech, but they're still cool as hell, and of course, the music is classic. Price's Black Widow intro is gold.
• 6/9 Zatoichi 5 - On the Road, ***1/2
• 6/9 Svengali (1931), ***1/2 John Barrymore is wicked in this, and the rest of the cast are good too. The story moves along nicely and the sets and camerawork are intriguing.
• 6/11 Pink Floyd Live at Pompeii (original concert), ***** Perfect.
• 6/11 Pink Floyd Live at Pompeii (Director's Cut), **** I don't mind the new fangled CGI and stock footage so much, but the band interviews cut into the flow. They're great to have, no doubt about it, but it makes the movie come off more as a 'making of' film rather than a feature film. The Dark Side of the Moon session footage is priceless though.
• 6/12 The Invisible Ghost, **1/2 Lugosi is in good form, and the rest of the cast do quite good as well, but a preposterous script really holds this one back.
• 6/12 Sunrise, ***** A captivating story with dark forebodings, dismal dread, and renewed hope only to be threatened by precarious turns of fate. Also, there are a few moments of delightful humor throughout. Great camerawork and incredible pace. An amazingly sophisticated example of cinema for 1927.
• 6/12 Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1920), *** A little stagey and overly dramatic at times, but that was the way things were done back then. As the movie progresses, John Barrymore's perfomance as Hyde gets better and better. The murder scene truly is brutal and stunning.
• 6/13 The Taking of Pelham One Two Three, **** Walter Matthau and Robert Shaw and the rest are just great in this 70s New York City thriller. Some great period humor (the characters are truely 70s New Yorker personas) and lots of tense action. One of my favorite movies.
• 6/14 Amityville Horror (2005), ***1/2 Tight flick. I don't understand the hate, other than that it's a remake. I think on it's own it plays pretty damned well. The story flows well, the characterization is good, and the acting is believable.
• 6/15 Batman Begins, **** Thought this was great. The acting by all was good, and was more realistic than in the previous movies. The story was complex and the scenes were great.
• 6/16 Bill Hicks Live; One Night Stand ****
• 6/17 Bill Hicks Live; Relentless, ****
• 6/18 The Human Monster a.k.a. The Dark Eyes of London, *** Pretty fun little slice of depravity. Not the best movie technically, but the acting is fine and the plot situations are gruesome. Must have been pretty shocking back in '39.
• 6/19 Night of the Living Dead (1990), *** Pretty good effort, but it just doesn't capture the eeriness of the original. Still, some good scenes and some good laughs.
• 6/19 Dawn of the Dead (1978), ****
• 6/19 Day of the Dead, ***1/2
• 6/20 Night of the Living Dead (1968), ****
• 6/21 Land of the Dead, **** Great return! My only complaint at all was that it was too short - the end really came up fast, and I was all 'noooo, don't stop now!' The acting was mostly believable by all the cast, and the gore, while not overly abundant, was very satisfying. Much munchings and crunchings, and head blasts and such make Hyde a happy zombie-boy, and Land of the Dead delivers.
• 6/25 Return of the Living Dead 3, ***1/2 Brian Yuzna and Mindy Clarke... nuff said.
• 6/26 Return of the Living Dead 2, ***
• 6/28 House of Wax (2005), ***1/2 Not too shabby. Moves along much better than I expected, and the ending is pretty intense.
• 6/28 To Hell and Back, **** True story of Texas farmboy making good by storming through Italy, France and Germany during WWII to become the nation's most decorated war hero. Slightly sentimental autobio-pic is well done, showing the camaraderie of war, if not exactly the explicit brutality of it (to be sure, there are plenty of 'bang, you're dead!' moments, but they're not as excessively graphic as something like 'Saving Private Ryan' or 'A Very Long Engagement'). Reminds you how even heroes can have humble beginnings. At only one awkward point did seeing Audie playing himself onscreen feel odd to me, and even then I was alright with it. Good show.
• 6/29 Hell's Highway: The True Story of Highway Safety Films, ***1/2 Far ranging history of the people who made the films, including some of the more dubious non-traffic related material they were involved with. Very wild seeing archival cameos by Dick York, Sammy Davis, Jr. (pics only), Sonny Bono, and Ronald Reagan among others doing their part to help save us from ourselves.
• 6/30 Signal 30, *** First short from the Highway Safety Films folks (1959). Gruesome as is to be expected; gets good marks for editing, staying focused on the message, and for the sheer impact of the material. Included on the 'Hell's Highway' DVD.
• 6/30 Highways Of Agony, ***1/2 Same quality of editing and quantity/level of gore and shock value as 'Signal 30', but with an increase in quality of script, soundtrack and production values in general. Included on the 'Hell's Highway' DVD.
• 6/30 Option to Live, *** Half of this one is a compilation of scenes from previous Highway Safety Films productions, the narrator summarizing what the producers had attempted to accomplish over the years. The latter half is new material, in the same vein as the two previous entries here. Included on the 'Hell's Highway' DVD.

JULY

• 7/1 Bill Hicks Live; Revelations, ***1/2
• 7/4 Comic Book Confidential, **** A true joy to watch for damn near any comic book fan. EC and other old school veterans (William M. Gaines, Al Feldstein, Will Eisner, Harvey Kurtzman, Jack Kirby, etc.), underground icons (Robert Crumb, Gilbert Shelton, Harvey Pekar, Bill Griffith, etc.), and modern day trailblazers (Frank Miller, Jaime Hernandez, Charles Burns, Art Spiegelman, etc.) speak candidly about their craft and it's beginnings, transformations, and future. Any fan of the old horror comics, MAD magazine, Marvel's history, and/or the '80s independent wave should certainly watch this one.
• 7/5 American Splendor, **** Excellent film; terrific editing, script, directing... crazy yet deftly handled mix of auto-biographical and sometimes on-screen narration by Harvey Pekar himself, and good acting by Paul Giamatti and the rest. Reading or hearing how the film is structured, it may seem that it just wouldn't work, but they pulled it off exceptionally well.
• 7/6 The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp, ****
• 7/7 Ossessione, ***** Perfect. Rootless wanderer meets unhappily married babe in this gripping erotic crime noir; the desire and sinister conspiring saturates the screen like so much passion-sweat... and then the plotting begins. Tense, lusty and yet dismally hopeless, this is an exceptionally crafted film with superb photography, pace and direction; highly recommended for fans of film noir. Italian, 1943.
• 7/8 It's Just a Ride, ***1/2 Informative documentary about Bill Hicks includes spots with his childhood friends, his parents and brother, Jay Leno, David Letterman, Brett Butler, Richard Belzer and other fellow comedians.
• 7/9 Fitzcarraldo, *****
• 7/11 Open City, **** Tense drama about a Nazi man-hunt in occupied Rome. Filmed in Rome within weeks of the allied liberation, the movie is a fine example of stark realism. It is full of striking images (Nazis flooding the streets, merciless torture, on the spot unceremonious execution...) and themes (constant surveillance, willing informants, immoral materialism, drug addiction, lesbian seduction...), yet it could be considered tame by today's standards as they are not excessive; the movie is illustrative, not exploitative. Note; Forget the copy on the back of Image's dvd - the print isn't exactly pristine. And worse, the subtitles are very sparse, often condensing dialogue and even leaving you completely hanging during multiple conversation exchanges. Sure, you can get the gist of the movie, but I seriously guesstimate that about half the dialogue is left untranslated. Also, it looks like the torture scene has been edited; there are suspect scene transitions, and there's even an image on the back of the dvd case that isn't to be seen in the film. Very shoddy. I've read online that the VHS doesn't have these problems, so that may be a decent little nugget to hunt down.
• 7/15 Once Upon a Time in China, ***1/2 Pretty slow going at first, but the story is good and things really pick up in the second half. It is talky, very plot-driven, and even a little preachy so it actually plays more like a straight historical drama than an all out martial arts actioner. Still, there are some fine action sequences here amidst the drama, so it's a fairly well balanced flick. Jet Li fans and fans of martial arts films in general, check it out.
• 7/17 Layer Cake, **** Very well done crime epic.
• 7/19 Jeremiah Johnson, ****1/2 Visually stunning film with a liberating central theme. Great therapy for the disaffected city dweller.
• 7/20 One Day in September, **** Gut-wrenching, blood-chilling documentary about the terrorist hostage crisis and massacre at the '72 Munich Olympics. “If we give in, no Israeli in the world can feel safe. It is blackmail of the worst kind.” - Golda Meir, Israeli Prime Minister '69-'74
• 7/21 Blind Shaft, **** Gritty, grungy movie about scheming coalminers who subject other miners to fatal accidents. They then pass off these miners as relatives in order to extort under the table insurance payouts from mine bosses who want to keep the accidents secret from the government, for fear of the mine being shut down. Very well done, character driven killer-for-profit scheme movie. Chinese, 2003.
• 7/27 The Caine Mutiny, **** Great production values and a good story.
• 7/28 Metropolis (animated, 2001), **** Great attention to visual detail and the story moves along well, unlike many animes.
• 7/28 Dirty Harry, ***** A real classic - one of the all time best tough cop movies, possibly the best.
• 7/28 The Taking of Pelham 1-2-3, **** See 6/13 entry above. I never tire of this movie.
• 7/31 Shane, ***1/2 Pretty good story and action, but a little heavy handed in the sentimentality department; would have got 4 stars had Alan Ladd and the kid not creeped me out so much. Seeing an extremely young and extremely mean Jack Palance makes up for that though.
• 7/31 The Asphalt Jungle, **** Great John Huston crime noir. The movie really clicks along and the ensemble cast is very impressive.

AUGUST

• 8/2 Land of the Dead, **** See comments above, 6/21. I think it holds up to the same rating and comments on a second viewing.
• 8/2 Unleashed, **** Realllly enjoyed this one. Great mix of action (Jet Li RULES) and a dramatic story. Things like this usually get real disjointed, and seem to be two different movies, but it works seemlessly here and the cast is great. I'll be watching this one again.
• 8/3 DerailRoaded - Inside the Mind of Wild Man Fischer, **** Intimate, often funny, often uncomfortable documentary about unconventional vocalist, Larry Wild Man Fischer. Original interviews with Mark Mothersbaugh (of Devo), Frank Zappa's wife Gail, Barnes and Barnes ('Fishheads'), radio's Dr. Demento, and Fischer himself among others offer great insight into Fischer's erratic history. Various Fischer family members show up as well. Archival footage abounds of Fischer, Frank Zappa, Weird Al Yankovic, and Barnes and Barnes. Caught this at the Dallas Video Festival, and it was a real treat. Highly recommended for fans of the weird..
• 8/6 The Maltese Falcon, ****1/2 An uncomfortably claustrophobic plot with all characters scheming to outdo the others. Not only John Huston's directorial debut, but film noir's debut as well. Great cast, fine acting by all, perfect pace, excellent photography.
• 8/7 Lord of the Flies (1963), ****1/2 Microcosm of a slice of society wondefully realized. Tropical island locale provides for excellent, aesthetic contrast in photography.
• 8/10 Mephisto, ****1/2 Good job of portraying the unsteady motivations of an artist deciding whether to work under Hitler in familiar surroundings or branching out to new environments under unknown conditions. Excellent cast, production and direction.
• 8/11 Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956), ****1/2 Don Siegel (Coogan's Bluff, The Beguiled, Dirty Harry), nuff' said... except maybe for a fine cast of worthy character actors, exceptional photographic composition, timing/pace and plot devices. Terrific, captivating film.
• 8/12 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, ****
• 8/13 Kung Fu Hustle, ****
• 8/14 War of the Worlds (2005), ***1/2 Good marks for bunches of dead people and lots of raining blood. F/X are a mixed bag though, with good looking alien machines but poor job on impact gore from the incinerator beams. Pretty good brainless action flick if you don't mind some uninspired character and plot development (which isn't really needed here anyway, what with all the people, buildings, cars and alien ships blowin' up).
• 8/14 Time After Time, ***1/2 Malcom McDowell and David Warner in 'Jack the Ripper comes to the 20th century' time travel story? I'm there! Nothing exceptionally spectacular here but just a good, tight story well played out.
• 8/16 Body Heat, ****
• 8/21 Godzilla; Final Wars, ***1/2 It's great to see the big guy in action again (especially on the big screen) and the monster scenes rock, but the CGI unfortunately looks horrible at times. Furthermore, the soundtrack is pretty weak, which just simply should not be the case in a Godzilla film. Still, it was action packed and had a pretty far reaching plot that didn't fall to pieces. An all out monster bash, worthy of any kaiju fan's time.
• 8/21 The Girl Next Door, ***1/2 Pretty funny, well plotted, and nice eye candy to boot.
• 8/23 All Quiet on the Western Front, ****
• 8/23 Of Mice and Men (1939), ****1/2 Lon Chaney Jr.'s finest moment, and Burgess Meredith shines as well.
• 8/24 Strangers on a Train, ***** Hitchcock at his best.
• 8/28 I Confess, **** Was not very impressed with the first half of this one, but Hitchcock eventually pulls it off well in the second half.
• 8/28 Grizzly Man, **** Werner Herzog's documentary about wildlife activist Tim Treadwell who met his fate at the hands of the bears he swore to protect. Herzog extensively uses Treadwell's own footage which, the viewer knowing up front Treadwell's fate, lends a deep eeriness to the film. Herzog also interviews several of Treadwell's family and friends as well as others who had contact with him. Treadwell was certainly an eccentric character, and it's only natural that the eccentric Herzog would take an interest in his story. An interesting and captivating film.
• 8/30 The Man Who Wasn't There, ****
• 8/31 Burden of Dreams, ****1/2 Fascinating glimpse into the making of Werner Herzog's 'Fitzcarraldo'. It is simply incredible that the film was ever made.
• 8/31 Rock & Rule, ***1/2 The story is fairly simple and the animation is good, but the real good stuff here is the characterization and the music. Included is a gem of a 'making of' featurette, which includes vintage interviews with Lou Reed, Iggy Pop, Debbie Harry and Chris Stein of 'Blondie', Maurice White of 'Earth Wind & Fire', and original soundtrack composer Patricia Cullen. While it is unfortunate that no one from Cheap Trick is present, with everyone else here it's still a great, very welcome look into the music of Rock & Rule.

SEPTEMBER

• 9/4 Seed of Chucky, ***1/2 Pretty funny, some good kills and... Jennifer Tilly.
• 9/7 Dirty Pretty Things, **** Very well done, macabre little drama/thriller... and it's always nice to see Audrey Tautou as well.
• 9/15 Raging Bull, ****1/2
• 9/16 Harold and Maude, ****
• 9/17 Notorious, ****1/2
• 9/20 Black and White in Color, ****
• 9/21 The Sky Above, The Mud Below, ***1/2
• 9/24 12 Angry Men, *** Technically sound film with excellent photography and direction, and superb acting from some of the finest character actors of the day. Unfortunately, the story is utter crap.
• 9/26 Requiem for a Dream, *****
• 9/28 The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, *****
• 9/28 Casablanca, *****
• 9/29 All The King's Men, ****
• 9/30 We Were Soldiers, ****

OCTOBER

• 10/3 Sword of Doom, ***1/2
• 10/4 Black Angel, ***1/2 Quaint little crime noir. A bit sappy at times, but it works here. If for nothing else, check it out for Peter Lorre, but the two leads, Dan Duryea and June Vincent, are good as well.
• 10/7 The Apartment, ****
• 10/19 The Fearless Freaks, **** Documentary covering the history of Oklahoma punk/garage band turned alternative darlings, The Flaming Lips. Vintage, essential footage plus intimate interviews makes this a must have for fans.
• 10/20 WIZARDS, (Ralph Bakshi's) *****
• 10/28 Airplane! **** Pure genius. An absolute classic.
• 10/29 Night of the Hunter, **** Great, sinister little flick. Robert Mitchum is terrific as the serial rapist/murderer/con-man in preacher's clothing. The rest of the cast do good as well, from a young Shelley Winters to elderly cinema legend, Lillian Gish, to the children who play the young brother and sister that Robert preys upon. Good to see a young Peter Graves here as well, if only briefly. Fine direction by Charles Laughton as well as cinematogrphy by Stanley Cortez (The Naked Kiss, Shock Corridor).
• 10/30 Cutie Honey (live action), ***1/2 Full of some pretty cool action sequences and goofy humor. Does a great job of bringing several aspects of anime to live action. I was pleasantly surprised.
• 10/31 Dead and Breakfast, ***

NOVEMBER

• 11/2 Twelve O'Clock High, ****
• 11/3 Constantine, ***1/2 Really not that horrible. No, Reaves is not the real John Constantine of Hellblazer comics, but the movie around him is very good looking, and the story is coherent and captivating enough.
• 11/4 The Big Clock, ***1/2 Nice murder mystery noir from '48. Elsa Lanchester and Charles Laughton serve up good supporting roles to Ray Milland's excellent lead. Also, nice to briefly see Noel Neill here, Lois Lane from the 'Adventures of Superman' TV series.
• 11/6 Unpublished Story, ***1/2 Wartime espionage film (1942) about a pair of London journalists uncovering a group of influencial pacifists who've been infiltrated by Nazis. Very interesting in that the film portrays events that were occurring at the time in which it was made (London bombings, Nazi fifth columnists, etc.). Obviously a bit of British propaganda in it's own right, the film regardlessly stands on it's own as a good example of British film. The movie is ably directed and well shot (minus a few bad f/x moments), and both traditional British humor and Churchillian resolve in the midst of daunting circumstances are on ample display here.
• 11/8 The Black Pirate, **** Insane filmmaking. Great action flick from 1926, and in Technicolor no less. Douglas Fairbanks' physical antics alone are worth watching, but then there is also the exceptional physical direction of numerous scenes simultaneously involving several cast members at once. A fine accomplishment.
• 11/13 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005), ***1/2
• 11/21 White Heat, ***1/2 Classic James Cagney crime flick, with Jimmy returning in fine form to his staple genre after a bit of a hiatus.
• 11/22 High Noon, **** Excellent pace and direction. Although there is no action until the last two minutes or so of the film, the time spent leading up to it is a tense pot-poiler.
• 11/22 My Darling Clementine, *** Cinematically, technically sound film, but most of the time is spent on Doc Holiday's problematic love triangle and his self-loathing rather than Wyatt Earp's quest for vengeance against his brother's killers. I have no problem with 'nothing happening' until the end (case in point, 'High Noon'), but the central theme of the vengeance story is treated more like a side-plot here. The dvd case has an Ebert quote that this is John Ford's greatest western? I call bullshit on that one.
• 11/22 Gunga Din, ***1/2 Great buddy adventure story/comedy. I loved this as a kid, and it holds up very well today.
• 11/25 A Special Day, *** A bit too claustrophobic for me, taking place in one setting between two depressing characters in Nazi occupied Italy, but we do get two good performances out of foreign screen legends Sophia Loren and Marcello Mastroianni. Also nice to see Animal House's John Vernon in a small part (it was high cinematic crime though that his highly distinctive voice was dubbed). Viewer beware; the Jet Films dvd is a pretty bad VHS port, with horrible audio and even a tracking glitch at one point where a wide bar of white noise briefly washes over the screen.
• 11/30 Tokyo Godfathers, ***1/2 Excellent backgrounds and character animation. Story was well done too, with all the main characters having more depth and dimension than in your standard anime fare.
• 11/30 Get Out Your Handkerchiefs, ***

DECEMBER

• 12/3 Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, ****
• 12/3 Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, ***1/2
• 12/6 The Manchurian Candidate (1962), ****
• 12/14 Heartbreak Ridge, ***
• 12/23 The Life of Emile Zola, **** Fiercely independant writer fights censorship and exposes institutional corruption and conspiracy in pre-WWI France at the risk of his own freedom. The acting and script are very well done, even if the movie does get a little sentimental and preachy near the end.
• 12/26 The Man Who Would Be King, ****
• 12/27 The Last Picture Show, **** This is one wicked little film about some Texans in the '50s with too damned much time on their hands. Wanna talk Desperate Housewives? ABC ain't got nothin' on this 'cept maybe for that murder business. This is high-brow sleaze noir, with excellent pacing and photography which perfectly complements the daunting monotony of the endless, flat, west Texas landscape; cast is full of unknown folks and Hollywood greenhorns who would later go on to lead notable careers in film - lots of fun picking them out along the way.

T.V. sets completed in 2005
The Outer Limits, Original Series Season One; Excellent.
SCTV; 1st season, vol. 2... so good.
Prime Suspect, 1; Very well done.
Prime Suspect, 2; As above, well done again.
