Perry King

James Mason, Susan George

Paramount, 1998

Don't listen to the others - this is an excellent film & true historically
Do not REPEAT do not listen to the people who gave bad reviews to this film. The movie is very fine (though not without a few weaknesses - even Kubrick's movies had weaknesses), a true case of realistic historical filmmaking by a noted director. 1) To those who ...

Last of the Mobile Hot-Shots

Reggie King, James Coburn

Warner Home Video, 1998

Only in America
I loved this film. I loved the story and the stars and the way out way that it was staged. I have not read the original play but I felt that this film caught the spirit that is Tennesee Williams not like the mess made of some of his other plays including A Street Car ...

Three Musketeers (1939)

Don Ameche, The Ritz Brothers

20th Century Fox, 1998

Good Story. Good Songs. Realism & Fun.
Realistic-adventure and slapstick-comedy normally do not mix, but here they do, because there is a good story, and the film is carefully balanced so the realism brings you right back to the story after limited comedy. This film has a fitting hero, sword fights, a ...

Friday the 13th 2

Amy Steel, John Furey

Paramount, 1998

Jason takes the stage.
I like this one better than the original. Amy Steel is right up there with Jamie Lee Curtis as all time scream queen. This is the last Friday I'm giving five stars. The idea of Jason running around the woods as some crazed, hillbilly is brilliant. In later Fridays ...

Lovely to Look at

Kathryn Grayson, Red Skelton

MGM (Video & DVD), 1995

A wonderful and colorful musical!
I never thought I'd enjoy it as much as I did. Katheryn Grayson and Howard Keel, sing there way into love, and also this films has the lovely dancing couple Marge and Gower Champion along with the ever funny Red Skelton, and beautiful and talented dancer Ann Miller. ...

Richard Jordan, Perry King

Universal Studios, 2000

An absolutely superb miniseries!
I first saw this wonderful miniseries when it made its debut on NBC in the fall of 1976, and I recently bought and watched the video set of the series. After so many years, I thoroughly enjoyed watching the late Richard Jordan's portrayal of Joseph Armaugh. Armaugh, ...

The Choirboys

Charles Durning, Louis Gossett Jr.

Universal Home Video, 1996

The Choirboys is Great Fun
I first saw this movie as a kid, and as a grown up I'm now a cop. This movie looks at life as a cop with a sense of humor mingled with what really happens on the street. Some parts of the movie don't mix well but is still a lot of fun to watch and know some things ...

Greatest Adventure: Samson & Delilah

Perry King, Linda Purl

Turner Home Entertainment, 1997

Greatest Adventure Stories from the Bible
I bought the entire collection of this series, including the story of Samson and Delilah. I started with the David story and was arogantly going to return it as I wanted to give my then 2 year old only complete bible truth. So I went to my Bible and realized that I was ...

Sunshine State

Alex Lewis, Alan King

We loved this movie, and have bought many copies to give to FL friends and relatives. Scenes of FL as it used to be, as well as scenes from FL as it is now. Great fun!

Rocktober Blood

Tray Loren, Donna Scoggins

Jef Films/Mvd, 2003

theres a killer on the loose!
This film is pure b-movie entertainment. The plot is filled with holes, and the script leaves itself open to many improvized jokes. Billy, the lead singer for a metal band, takes his lyrics a little bit too seriously and out of nowhere kills 2 people after a recording ...
