Started to watch Beyond the Hills last night. Made it about 20 minutes in... I don't think a 2 hour plus Romanian drama about religious belief was the best pick for 11:45pm last night I'll try it again later today . . .

The Collector Really enjoyed this. Some of the death sequences were excellent and totally original. Some were reminiscent of the Saw movies. A good way to spend eighty five minutes. The Soundtrack was massive on Bluray. One of the better "Torture/Porn" flicks IMO |

Dirty Mary Crazy Larry Peter Fonda plays an indie-car racer naked Larry who along with his alcoholic mechanic rob Roddy Mcdowell's supermarket to fund their passion. Mary played by Susan George, is the blonde Fonda's character hooked up with the night before and decides to tag along for the ride. The film follows their attempts to escape, there's plenty of supurb car stunts and humour in store. I'd never seen this one before (shame on me) but it came double billed with RACE WITH THE DEVIL (one of my favourite films) so I gave it a whirl and really enjoyed it. Didn't realise it was directed by the always awesome John Hough (legend of hell house and incubus, two more films I really enjoy) who directs the car chases better than anyone I've seen. (I would argue their better than Bullitt) The Blu-ray release looks and sounds incredible and the extras are all from a previous Anchor bay release. Race With the Devil Warren Oates and Peter Fonda head across country with their missuses and run into a powerful cult of Satanists. I absolutely adore this film. Its Flawed, the satanic conspiracy is too big to be plausible, but the film throws in horror influences from casting the runes, Devils rain and The Wicker man and mixes it in with a kick-ass car chase/stunt movie. The final scenes with the extended chase between the Satanists and the RV always leave me breathless. Fantastic stuff. THE DOUBLE BILL FROM SCREAM FACTORY IS REGION FREE BTW!!! Decided to keep the petrolhead theme with.. Gumball Rally. Another one i'd not seen before. Has an early Gary Busey appearance. The humour dosent always work but its damnned entertaining. Certainly worth watching... Vanishing Point. The 70's car movie as an allegory about Jesus, as Kowalski makes his way through the desert encountering many temptations. Chock full of religious imagery and motifs (is the DJ judas escariot) and Kowalskis seeming willing self-sacrifice for the benefit of all. or perhaps i'm reading too much into it.. |
