Spacehunter: Adventures in the Forbidden Zone

Peter Strauss, Molly Ringwald

Sony Pictures, 2001

THE MAZE OF DEATH..... AWAITS YOU
The 1980's gave us plenty of Sci-Fi adventures with the likes of Flash Gordon, Krull, The Last Starfighter, Buckaroo Banzai and Spacehunter: Adventures in the Forbidden Zone. "Spacehunter" ranks right up their with the others I've mentioned as being one of my ...

Airport Terminal Pack (Airport/Airport '75/Airport '77/Airport '79 - The Concord)

Alain Delon, Susan Blakely

Universal Studios, 2004

3 out of 4 - Classics.
They shouldn't have made the 1979 one; the other 3 are staples of the 70's disaster film era, all of which are fabulously cast, scored, and executed.

Jack the Bear

Danny DeVito, Robert J. Steinmiller Jr.

Twentieth Century-Fox Film Corporation, 2004

Delightful, touching, fun, halloweeny movie
This movie is in my top 5 all-time movies. I'm sure it wasn't a block buster. It has no stunning special fx. It has a great cast and is wonderfully acted and it hits me in my heart every time I see it. I don't watch many movies more than once, but I watch this movie ...

Paramount, 2006

Who Is Henry Jaglom?

Candice Bergen, Orson Welles

FIRST RUN FEATURES, 2008

No hagiography
It's been a few years since I've seen this -- I even saw a little of it being shot. I enjoyed it quite a lot, but I am familiar with Jaglom's body of work without being a fan. (I'm a bit more objective than the people who love to despise him.) I particularly ...

The Stuff

Michael Moriarty, Andrea Marcovicci

Starz / Anchor Bay, 2000

The goo is coming....
Truly an 80s classic. Not to be taken too serious, but watch it for a laugh and some chilling moments. A good combination of both really.
