Count Tsakona and His Draculettes (1989)

In this offering, Kostas Tsakonas (a champion of the SOV comedy of the era) as a wimpy poor guy & petty thief who lives with his nephew, is chosen by the arch-Dracula to rule Greece, since he's a long lost relative of the vampire family, and since the current Prime Minister has sucked the Greeks dry (yes, there's some awful not-so-subtle dated attempts at political satire in there as well). What follows is Tsakona's transformation and consequent attempts to adjust to his new vampiric lifestyle, while a clumsy exorcist and some of his fellow villagers are after him. The title says it a

Skullduggery (1983)

A nerdy fellow that enjoys playing a Dungeons and Dragons-like role playing game goes on a killing spree as the result of a family curse. Wow. What the hell did I just watch? That is all I can think after watching Skullduggery.  I have heard a lot of bad things about this movie over the years but never bothered to watch it until recently and almost immediately regretted my decision. It was just as bad (if not worse) as everyone said that it was and I think that I might have lost some IQ points-not that I had a lot to begin with-after watching it. I knew that I was in trouble after th

Alive or Preferably Dead/ Kiss Kiss Bang Bang

Wild East Productions presents another double feature highlighting specific Euro actors this time involving actor Giuliano Gemma aka Montgomery Wood and we also have a double dose of Director Duccio Tessari who together with Gemma gave fans the two Ringo films at the beginning of the Spaghetti Western genre. This time Gemma is presented by two light hearted farces which can only be appreciated if you have an acquired taste for Italian humor. Up first is 'ALIVE OR PREFERABLY DEAD'-1969 which is not a true Spaghetti Western and emerges as a period piece at the beginning of the Industrial Rev

Public Cowboy No. 1

Rustlers using modern technology (airplanes, shortwave radios, refrigerated trucks) are Gene's target. Deputy Gene Autry rides to the rescue when modern rustlers use airplanes, short wave radios, and refrigerator trucks to ply their trade.

The Comedy of Terrors / The Raven (Midnite Movies Double Feature)

Vincent Price and Peter Lorre star in a chilling double feature. Business is booming at a funeral parlor that employs a murderous undertaker in Comedy of Terrors (Basil Rathbone. 1964/84 min.), and three powerful magicians engage in a battle for supremacy in The Raven (Boris Karloff. 1963/86 min.). Color/NR. I love Vincent Price and Peter Lorre, not to mention Poe, so I was certainly looking forward to watching these. The first movie is The Comedy of Terrors and it really is quite funny. Since you've read the plot a million times on these reviews, I'll cut to the chase. Vincent Price and

Death Becomes Her (Collector's Edition) [Blu-ray]

Directed by the amazing Robert Zemeckis, "Death Becomes Her" features a clever script, an awesome cast, and mind-blowing special effects that most Hollywood films lack nowadays. The film centers on the eternal quest for beauty and youth by an aging Hollywood starlet, Madeline Ashton, (played by the brillant Meryl Streep). Her high school rival, Helen, (Goldie Hawn), brings her latest beau to meet Ashton after a campy performance in a musical based on "Sweet Bird of Youth" (get the theme already?). When Madeline runs off with Helen's fiance (Bruce Willis) Helen falls into a demented state a

At War with the Army (1950)

I love this movie for countless reasons. There's a lot of cross appeal for so many collectors; WWII war time, Rat Pack, comedy, family friendly, Jerry Lewis, Dean Martin, American Standards music and dancing, black & white film, Polly Bergen, etc. It really should be a staple in any movie buffs collection. Anybody that is critical of the Martin & Lewis schtick of pratfalls, slapstick, camp, jokes & gags, straight man -vs- monkey, just doesn't get it. Dean sings and Jerry goes nuts. It's Martin & Lewis! And this movie is truly a comedy classic. When originally released, it w

Sgt. Kabukiman N.Y.P.D. (1990)

If you like Troma's kind of silly, off beat, absurd humor then I'm quite sure you'll really enjoy a whole lot of scenes in this flick as well. There are lots of cartoonish, hilarious characters all of which have been acted out with confidence and conviction. The story... well there's this American cop in NY who finds out he can get supernatural powers by changing into the Kabukiman, a kind of Japanese Samurai dude with lots of makeup. Our hero uses his new found powers to beat the crap out of some local small time crooks in various entertaining ways, but it turns out he really owns his pow

An obscure Franco, apparently loosely based on Edgar Wallace's story 'Sanders of the River.', little-seen shoestring comedy/action/spy/thriller. A quintessential cast, Vernon goes characteristically and  gloriously over the top as the murdered - or is he? - missile inventor in full Mad Scientist key. Lina charms as a cabaret singer...or is she a spy? Or is she both? And Mayans is the most laid-back, unflappable tough guy you'll ever see.
