Family Home Ent, 1995

charming
Perhaps 4.5 stars. It was a real sweet story. After being sold to the French king, the horse and the boy go through a lot of misfortunes and were handed over from one owner to another. Half of the time in the hands of kind people, half of the time at the mercy of evil hands. The boy is extremely passive and good-natured, and accepts his fate as it unfolds. He doesn't seem to hold grudges ...

Republic Pictures, 1998

What is this work your doing up at the castle?
A misunderstood classic from Hammer Films. I remember first seeing it inside a hotel room at the Sheraton at Clearwater Beach during the Summer holidays. It came on WTOG Channel 44's Creature Feature with local horror host Dr. Paul Bearer. I loved it when I first saw it. It takes an engaging movie to get your mind off staying at the beach and deciding to be inside for 2-hours during the ...

Poldark
I was 18 when this series first appeared on Masterpiece Theatre in 1977. We didn't have VCR's back then, but so many of the scenes from this program were so firmly etched in my mind I could never forget them. I also never forgot the name Demelza, and have used it as a screen name wherever I register, like on Amazon! I can't be objective writing a review for this show because I love it so ...

Say Goodbye to the President - Marilyn and the Kennedys [VHS]

John Miner, Dean Funk

Winstar, 1997

Haunting, informative
Though I believe Marilyn Monroe committed suicide, I found this video (which captures Marilyn's last days) very informative: it stands as a testament to how powerful men can take advantage of women (as JFK and RFK seem to have done with Marilyn). Sometimes angering, sometimes depressing, this video is essential to understanding the downfall of an American icon. Those critical to the premise ...

Ralph Bates, Barbara Jefford

Republic Pictures, 1998

An excellent atmospheric movie!
Even though so many people think poorly of this film, it really is an excellent film. The sets are excellent and, really, the acting is just fine. The music is some of the best music I've heard in a horror movie. Even some of the scenes are perfectly timed with this music. This is one of my favorite vampire films. I enjoy watching this one over and over. It's not scary, and it's not ...

Dr Jekyll and Sister Hyde
I had heard stories from people about the bad things that happened to them when they purchased things online. I was definitely surprised when I received the DVD and was definitely excellent quality.

You'll never forget this movie
If you've seen it once, you must see it again! Its like one of those stories you HAVE to read in literature class, the type thats in a collection. You weren't sure you'd be interested, but after you read it, you want to read it again because it is so good. The acting is superb, and the plot is tied together seamlessly. Each time I watch it, I see something new, or understand differently. The ...

I've long wanted to see this little thriller which was produced in the "twilight" period of Hammer Productions highly successful run with horror and mystery tales. While not the greatest of that famous studios efforts it nevertheless is an intriguing tale that on first viewing does keep you guessing with it's surprise twists and great atmosphere. Written and directed by Hammer's Jimmy Sangster, ...

A Fine Vintage
"Taste the Blood of Dracula" was Hammer's fourth Dracula film to feature Christopher Lee and was a noticeable improvement on their previous outing "Dracula has Risen from the Grave." The move from Bray Studios to Elstree Studios in 1966, whilst not initially having a major effect on the films, was by the turn of the decade leading to rather dour and unassuming spectacles that were not aided by a ...

MGM (Warner), 1998

this is Joan's Shining Hour
This is one of those rare pictures that Joan made from the thirties that aren't very glamorous. Even though Joan doesn't get dressed up (except when she's a "walking mannequin" she's still so beautiful in each and every scene that she's in. In this picture, Joan plays Jessie Cassidy, a girl who marries a crook that tries to use her to a cheat a shipping magnate (Spencer Tracy.) This is a ...
