Hope you have as good a time. Haven't laughed as much since The 3 Stooges film.

Trancers 2 My favourite of the trancers films. Six years after the first film Jack deth has settled into his life with his wife Lena but trouble is around the corner as the trancers return this time lead by dr wardo( the underrated and creepy looking Richard lynch). Things getting even more complicated when it's is found out another trancer agent has been sent "down the line" who turns out to be jacks dead wife, Alice Stilwell (Megan ward). We have small roles for barbara crampton and Jeffrey combs. 9.5/10 Day of the doctor Absolutely fantastic on the edge of you're seat entertainment from beginning to end. Would love to see more of john hurts doctor. Would of liked to have had some sort of cameo for the rest of the surviving doctor actors. gallifrey falls no more. 10/10 Next up living dead of the Manchester morgue Last edited by trebor8273; 28th May 2014 at 08:57 PM. |

SHADOW OF THE CAT A Hammer Film in everything but name, this oddity is a fun watch, thanks to great performances and some neat touches from one of my favourite Hammer directors John Gilling. Lovely picture quality , the dvd includes an enjoyable 'talking heads' feature on the movie and also comes with a ( much better ! ) reverse sleeve. Recommended. |

Despite watching a lot of films, I don't often 'talk' about them (yes, boo shame on me). However, I whipped up a few thoughts on The Massage Parlor Murders which I watched recently... Massage Parlor Murders (1973) What do you get if you cross Herschell Gordon Lewis and Michael and Roberta Findlay? The answer is quite possibly this film. Massage Parlor Murders is a curious scuzzy gem dug up for mass consumption thanks to the fine folks at Vinegar Syndrome. The film trundles along to the tune of a mixture of funk and synth as our resident madman carves his way through the staff of the local massage parlor. Whilst the film does drag a little earlier on, patience is rewarded with some of the more unnecessary 'filler' scenes (and mild car porn) making way for more of blood 'n' breasts type fare, along with a 'peephole' topless classical dance routine; accompanied (of course) by a purple spandex wearing chubby man... add to this Brother Theodore from The 'burbs making plain his intentions of a "bouquet of broccoli" to replace his head at the time of his death and you know that you've stumbled across something a little special. The bizarro slow-mo flashback murder montage conclusion is just the icing on this very odd, but ultimately satisfying cake. |

It was indeed nowhere near poisoned spunk territory, yet certainly swayed more towards the sexual side of things than HGL's work tends to be. It conjured up thoughts of the infamous 'flesh trilogy' for me - that may be more to do with production values than overall content though!

Thirteen Days (2000) Michael Bay must wake up in a cold sweat when thinking about this film. Big boys with even bigger toys, their fingers poised on the triggers, yet shit DOESN'T get blown up. Thirteen Days is an engrossing, dramatic and gripping depiction of one of the pivotal events in twentieth century history as seen solely from the American point of view. Excellent performances from Kevin Costner, Dylan Baker, Steven Culp and chiefly Bruce Greenwood as John F Kennedy ensure two and a half hours fly by without the viewer noticing barely a shot was fired in anger during the Cuban Missile Crisis of October 1962.
