Luana Anders

Luana Anders, Ed Begley Jr.

Paramount, 2002

If you like Jack, you'll love this...
As an obviously biased fan, I find this somewhat obscure movie ( I actually saw it when it was originally released) to be an extention of Nicholson's offbeat sense of humor. Add in a supporting cast of unknowns like DeVito, Belushi, et al and you have a recipe for a ...

Evil Roy Slade

Edie Adams, John Astin

Timeless Media Group, 2008

Evil Roy Slade
The ordered product arrived very quickly. It was exactly what I ordered. It got here in perfect condition.

Shampoo

Warren Beatty, Julie Christie

Sony Pictures, 2003

Blow-dry
The time is the eve of the 1968 election --actual TV footage of Nixon and Agnew is interspersed with the fictional account of one womanizing straight hair dresser (Yes, Virginia, there really is a straight hair dresser), George Roundy (Warren Beatty of "Bonnie and ...

The Missouri Breaks

Daniel Ades, Luana Anders

MGM (Video & DVD), 2005

underrated and sublime
saw this film the other night on cable, pan & scan sadly, and was utterly blown away. forget anything anyone has said about pacing, brando's over the top perf., the ending, just bask in the glow of one of the most literate and sophisticated scripts ever. the ...

The Pit and the Pendulum

Vincent Price, Barbara Steele

American International Pictures (AIP), 2001

Am I not the spawn of depraved blood?
True!--nervous--very, very dreadfully nervous I had been and am; but why will you say that I am mad? Deeper, deeper the pit holds secrets preserved for the wretched and silent of heart The price is steep the steel is all but borrowed Torture, oh the torture ...

One From The Heart

Frederic Forrest, Teri Garr

Fantoma / American Zoetrope, 2004

a mood piece more than a movie
Like the real city of Las Vegas, you have to be in the right mood to allow yourself to sink beneath the flashy, dazzling, and artificial veneer that made up this dream-like cinematic mood piece. You have to let go. Stop thinking about why the hell would Francis Coppola ...

The Last Detail

Nancy Allen, Luana Anders

Sony Pictures, 1999

Buddhist Ideology in a unlikely film
The film, which on it's surface is rife with foul language, sex, and all sorts of treachery is actually about being selfless and caring for someone else just a bit more than for yourself. Jack Nicholson and Otis Young are to take Randy Quaid to prison for stealing 40 ...

What a great movie! Easy Rider brought back some good memories of days gone by. I first saw this with my dad at a drive in theater.Easy Rider

The Fall of the House of Usher /The Pit and the Pendulum

Vincent Price, Mark Damon

American International Pictures (AIP), 2005

From the king of classic horror...
This double-feature is amazing! Both movies feature fan-favorite Vincent Price as the star, whether he is playing a menacing widower gone mad, or a menacing older brother attempting to bring justice to his fallen sister. You'll be lured in by the great acting skills ...

Dementia 13

William Campbell, Luana Anders

Good Times Video, 2005

Even great directors have to be born
A rather simple and short film by a young director. In black and white of course because it is cheaper, but also because it is very classic in that kind of psychological thriller. Hitchcock did it with Psycho, why not Coppola then? Basically it is the guilt that ...

Horror Classics V.3

Boris Karloff, Lon Chaney Jr.

Echo Bridge Home Entertainment, 2003

THERE ARE BETTER BUT NOT FOR THE MONEY
This is a Platinum Disc that has 4 movies on one side. What is surprising here is that compression is extremely good for such a crowded early issue disc. All of these movies have fallen into public domain and there are tons from various distributors on the market but ...

Hearts on Fire

Ray Baker, Lisa Blount

Direct Source Label, 2006

Hearts on Fire
Leslie Ann Warren, Tom Skarret and Marg Helgenberger all did an excellent job in this movie; especially, Leslie Ann Warren (playing a paraplegic). I would recommend this movie.

Taxi Driver / Easy Rider

Luana Anders, Luke Askew

Sony Pictures, 2004

Two For The Road...Stand The Test Of Time
Why these two films are packaged together, I'm not really sure. I do know that these are two of the great films that define fine filmmaking, and that will forever stand the test of time.But why look a gift horse in the mouth, right? A package of classics that should be ...
