Dig It!
Unfortunately, most people in the US only know of the main stage events of Glastonbury, which are comprised of the most popular bands. But the main stage events make up only a fraction of what the Glastonbury festival is and personally, I can see all of those bands on ...

Look, Up in the Sky - The Amazing Story of Superman

Chris Lee (VI), Noel Neill

Warner Home Video, 2006

A Must Own For Any Superman Fan
This is the perfect documentary for Superman fans about the last 70 years of our favorite hero. Yes, not every little thing was mentioned in this movie, but way enough to make any fan happy. If you are one of the ones that have seen this on TV, I'd still recommend that ...

In Which We Serve

Ballard Berkeley, Chimmo Branson

Tgg Direct, 2003

In Which We Serve
With Britain in the pit of the Second War, playwright Coward was desperate to do a morale-boosting film, and "Serve" was the inspired result. The normally effete Coward is appropriately "stiff upper lip" as Kinross, and a young Mills stands out in a first rate ensemble ...

Frightmare

Kim Butcher, Deborah Fairfax

Shriek Show, 2006

Under-appreciated Masterpiece
The most famous and disturbing image of Pete Walker's 1974 exploitation horror film "Frightmare," is when psychopathic matriarch Dorothy (Sheila Keith) gleefully and with lip-smacking relish, uses a Black and Decker cordless drill on a poor chaps head. The disgust and ...

Under Heavy Fire

Casper Van Dien, Jaimz Woolvett

Universal Studios, 2002

Excellent!
This movie suprised me. I was saw it for just $6 bucks here and there and just past it by. Finally bought it and it was really nearly 5 stars. It tears at the heart with the brotherhood of arms and Marines being called in to question. This is not some courtroom trail ...

Hoover Street Revival
Bishop Noel Jones, Patrick Bolton (II)

Come Dance With Me

Brigitte Bardot, Henri Vidal

Starz / Anchor Bay, 2000

retro fun!
The storyline almost does not matter: it is all a pretext to showcase Brigitte Bardot's (stunning) curves. She can't act, but she is so cute! And she is also surrounded by a wonderful cast of character actors well known to the French cinema afficionado of the 50s: ...

The Curse of Frankenstein

Peter Cushing, Hazel Court

Warner Home Video, 2002

Five stars for horror fans
This is the 1957 Hammer Film which launched the super team of Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee, albeit, since Lee plays the monster in this one we have to wait for a subsequent film to see his handsome face. This flick turned the genre in a positive direction with ...

Frightmare

Kim Butcher, Fiona Curzon

Image Entertainment, 2001

Under-appreciated Masterpiece
The most famous and disturbing image of Pete Walker's 1974 exploitation horror film "Frightmare," is when psychopathic matriarch Dorothy (Sheila Keith) gleefully and with lip-smacking relish, uses a Black and Decker cordless drill on a poor chaps head. The disgust and ...

Frenzy

Michael Bates, John Boxer (II)

Universal Studios, 2001

Unique Morbidity and Neckties
From the opening shot and Ron Goodwin's very British score, 1972's FRENZY is a thriller that harkens back to the type of films he was directing in the 40's that combine his unique morbidity with incongruous humor and the element of the wrong man being accused of ...
