Wolfen
Albert Finney, Gregory Hines

Warner Home Video, 2002

4.75 Stars. There is life that preys on us as we prey on the earth. A Horror film with a message.

+ Beasts or Shapeshifters?....

Wolfen is not a werewolf movie, don't go into this film expecting or wanting that, go into this film with an open mind. At the beginning of the film a real estate tycoon is killed, his wife, and there driver by something unknown. A New York City Detective Dewey Wilson is put on the case who is ...
  
  











  



  
The Boxer's Omen
Phillip Ko, Lung Wei Wang

Image Entertainment, 2006

GREAT FUN!

+ Fantastically nuts

Excellent DVD of a great cult film. And don't worry about the language the previous review mentions. Considering the reviewer is from France, it's unlikely they've even seen this release to make a judgement on the quality of the disc, which is the best this film has ever seen in any form. No ...

The Yoga of Snakes and Arrows: The Leela of Self-Knowledge
Harish Johari

Destiny Books, 2007

The coolest board game

I absolutely love this game. It is so awesome to be able to play a game that teaches me something so profound at the same time. I love the relationships that it gives insight into, the spontaneous meditation, and I am sure there are endless insights that will come as I play over longer periods of ...
  
  











  



  
Japanese Hell
Masato Tsujioka, Chiho Yoshida

Tokyo Shock, 2005

Watch It Only If You Are Desperate for a Horror Movie

I am a fan of horror movies and I consider myself to be somewhat of a horror movie snob. That is, I tend to like horror movies that are actually good movies, not just because there is a lot of killing and/or mayhem. I tend to turn up my nose at most of the current crop of today's American horror ...
  
  











  



  
Do You Like Hitchcock?
Elio Germano, Chiara Conti

Starz / Anchor Bay, 2006

One horror master pays homage to another.

+ Argento's best work in years
+ Not a return to grace for Argento, but a very solid flick

There is no denying that Dario Argento was at his peak in the late 70's to early 80's. The films he made between Deep Red and Opera are not just the best films of his career, but are some of the best horror films ever made. Unfortunately, after that he started putting his daughter, Asia Argento ...
