John Belushi, Kathryn Walker

Sony Pictures, 1996

John Belushi in a smart comedy
Forget Meet the Parents, Neighbors is where it's at. Why is this not on DVD? Tune into the Animal House 30th Anniversary on Biography until this movie starring Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi is released on DVD. Some special features would be a nice addition to this ...

Harold & Maude (Aniv)

Harvey Brumfield, Eric Christmas

Paramount, 1997

I haven't lived ... but I've died a few times ...
Hal Ashby's masterpiece Harold and Maude is so many people's favourite movie, that it's mind-boggling. When the film was released in 1971 it was panned by the bulk of the reviewers and was thought of as something that would be quickly forgotten as it was not easy for ...

Dr Strangelove

Peter Sellers, George C. Scott

Sony Pictures, 1994

what can you say!
I can only add my kudos to this cult timepiece. Title could have been "It's a mad, mad world"! Peter Sellers and George C Scott give masterful performances. No wonder that this film has a cult following all over the globe!

Xanadu

Olivia Newton-John, Gene Kelly

Universal Studios, 1994

Michael Beck KILLED "Xanadu"
The ONLY reason this movie bombed is because of the incredibly horrible casting of Michael Beck as "Sonny," Kira's (ONJ) love interest. Had an ironing board been given Beck's role, the movie would have had more charm. The movie is a fantasy, yet the very idea the ...

Creature From the Black Lagoon

Richard Carlson, Julie Adams

Universal Studios, 1992

MY FIRST MONSTER FILM.
This was my first "monster" film. I can remember the stir that it caused when it was first released and remember that my mother would not allow me to attend. Now telling an ten year old boy that there is "forbidden fruit" at the local cinema, and telling him that ...

Quatermass Xperiment

Brian Donlevy, Jack Warner

MGM (Video & DVD), 2000

A good movie to see
Only true fans of science fiction will appreciate the creeping unknown a.k.a.The Quatermass Xperiment. I happen to be one of them. I remember watching this fim at the age of eight and it scared me silly. Later on I understood better and it didn't bother me. ...

Cry-Baby

Johnny Depp, Amy Locane

Universal Studios, 1998

come on baby, make it hurt so good!
OMG I love this movie. It's one of my very favorite movies with one of my very favorite movie actors. Mr. Johnny Depp. Even though the movie has a stellar cast and even though it has a great story that's very funny and entertaining and even though Johnny Depp was the ...

What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?

Bette Davis, Joan Crawford

Warner Home Video, 2000

Clash Of The Movie Titans: The Famed Hudson Sisters
Robert Aldrich's 1962 Movie Masterpiece, "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?" is one of my all time favorite films and one of the visionary staples of my youth. I have long admired the "larger than life" glamour and cinematic greatness of Movie Legends Bette Davis b. ...

200 Motels

Dick Barber, Theodore Bikel

MGM (Video & DVD), 1993

I'm so commercial I could die!!!
Flo and Eddie. Ringo Starr. Theodore Bikel. Keith Moon. And a vacuum cleaner. This is a failure and a success at the same time. It was a total product of its times, and had very surreal moments that almost defy description. It's a Zappa fun fest. Too many good ...

Yellow Submarine

The Beatles, Paul Angelis

MGM (Video & DVD), 1999

Timeless Animation
Director George Dunning's "Yellow Submarine" (1968) represents a landmark achievement in the history of animation. Like the Beatles' music, the film has a timeless quality. Though the Fab Four's association with the project certainly helped, it was the endless ...

Better Off Dead

John Cusack, David Ogden Stiers

20th Century Fox, 2000

Da bomb
This classic is finally available for home viewing. My family bought 5 copies (4 siblings and Dad).

A Clockwork Orange

Warner Studios

Masterful Mind Control
Stanley Kubrick introduces us to a monster at the beginning of this great work. Alex De Large is a horror of a human being. He is violent, sadistic, ruthless, and cunning. He and his gang of youths steal, rape, destroy, and generally make war upon anyone they choose ...

Heavy Metal (Thx)

Don Francks, Caroline Semple

Sony Pictures, 1999

Heavy Metal - A Classic
This one classic animation at it's best by any definition of the term. Fond teenage memories of this movie brought me back to buy it, and the soundtrack, many years later.

The Lonely Lady

Pia Zadora, Lloyd Bochner

Universal Studios, 2000

THE CROWD PLEASER
What a bad bad movie THE LONELY LADY is. Yet this Harold Robbins adaptation deserves all the stops. The story centers around a busty blonde played by the legendary (yes, legendary) Pia Zadora, who wants to make it in Hollywood as a screenwriter. Her path to there is ...

Humanoids From Deep

Doug McClure, Ann Turkel

New Concorde, 2001

Water monsters horror!
Saw this movie back in the 80's on cable. I don't know want's more great about the film, the gore, or the nudity. I have to say this is Roger Corman's best film ever. Worth to pick-up!
