Fantastic Biography Of A Fantastic Man.
As a long-time reader of H.G.Wells, I have often wondered about the person himself. "The Infinite Worlds Of H.G.Wells", although dramatically treated for entertainment purposes, certainly illustrated the intrinsic genius of the man as well as his ability, in spite of his far-out writings, to be a total human being. From the point of view of the production itself, I found it excellent in every ...

The Long Ships
The Long Ships This was one of my favourite Saturday afternoon at the movies adventure movie that I was adicted to as a kid. It is very easy to enjoying this DVD for its high spirited adventure the pure nostalgic factor without having to lament that it is basically a B movie - a pretty good B movie. Besides it is a great popcorn with the kids movie and will likely be just as well received by ...

A Hammer Gem
Fete of Death I had never heard of "Nightmare" till I rented it, and now, having seen it, I don't know why I never came across it. It's an undiscovered gem by Hammer Studios. Juiced up by director Freddie Francis with eerie, foreboding scenes in a house full of noirish black-and-white looming shadows and imminent menace, "Nightmare" seems more or less predictable at first, like it might be ...

How Do You Like What You See?
Class Of 1984 has always been marketed as as a B exploitation film. Hell, I remember when I was a kid finding it in the "horror" section of the local video store! Though the film does have it's exploitation elements for sure, Class Of 1984 is a damn good movie. It could have been promoted as a more serious film(it actually was intended to be a more serious drama) and win over more critics, but ...

Move is a true classic from Hammer Films
Love love these movies! Have a pretty good collection myself. Have a few on VHS, but when you find these awesome Hammer films on DVD best to grab them. This movie has all the great actors and storyline that Hammer Films are known for. If you enjoy any of the Hammer Films, you'll enjoy this movie immensely. The vampire is nothing like the great Christopher Lee, but he provides a well convinced ...

Dry, Droll, And Unspeakably Funny--In The Most Polite Way Possible
The English seem to have a gift for "black comedy"--and nowhere is that gift on better display than in the 1949 KIND HEARTS AND CORONETS, a film that finds Alec Guiness playing eight members of the D'Ascoyne family and Dennis Price as the black sheep of the family who is determined to kill his way through them to both avenge his mother and obtain the title Duke of Chalfont. The film is often ...
