When this brilliantly acted, viscerally ferocious, bloody, mid-evil
epic gets relegated to one art-house movie theatre in New York City,
there is something SERIOUSLY wrong in the American Film Business! It is
BEYOND criminal that this film didn't get better backing and better
marketing as it is FAR superior to its other
'mid-evil-witches-during-the-black plague' ...

This film was made for UK TV, but its a lot better than the majority of
Hollywood pap out there. Admittedly it will not be to everyones taste,
but that goes without saying. It a simple tale really, but the film
gives it a depth i was not expecting.For me, it was the acting that really makes it stand out - Ray Winstone
and David Warner are outstanding.Ray shows Sweeney to be a kind ...

Converting anything of Terry Pratchett's to film was always going to be
difficult. Getting it right for everyone, impossible. However I was
pleased to give this, made for TV, movie 8 of 10 for a sterling effort.
The effects were a little crummy at times, Death's face was just a mask
and the monster under the bed was just a bloke. Some liberties were
taken with the plot,...

I recently saw a special screening of "Straight Into Darkness" at the
Italian Institute of Culture as part of the "Best of the Milan Film
Festival" series. The title is very appropriate -- disturbing and thought
provoking, the film takes the audience straight into the darkness,
violence
and brutality of war. The actors are terrific, most notably Scott
MacDonald

If one wants to remake a movie, the best option is probably to choose
and original that was good, but not a great classic. Clearly, any
attempt to remake a concept that failed first time around is fraught
with danger, but an attempt to remake a classic runs the risk that
one's film will be unfavourably compared with the original. The
original 1968 film of 'Planet of the Apes' i...

cartoons do, and the animation and voice acting are top quality. It's

The first segment "The Gas Station" is the only frightening story in this
trilogy. Set at night, apparently in the middle of nowhere, it has a
plausibilty that the others lack (similarly to Hitchcock's "Psycho", it is
scary because it's not completely beyond the realms of possibility). Plenty
of atmosphere, a little gore and enough sudden shocks and suspense to make
it worthw...

Due to its title and the period it was released, this movie has gotten
lumped together with about 10 million "erotic thrillers" that were
clogging video stores all during the 90's and are still clogging late
night cable stations today. Technically, this could be called an erotic
thriller I guess, but it was made early in the genre (pre-"Basic
Instinct" even) when these movi...

I've never figured out why ST V gets so much criticism. It's really not
that bad, if you're a true trekkie. First off, sure the effects are a
little low-fi...but so were the TOS episodes. I don't know about you,
but I care more about story than effects. The main reason that I like
this film because it's very episodic in nature. If you are a fan of the
original Star Trek series,...

Ah, our precious 80's, a time of great music, interesting taste in
fashion, action movies and goofy teen horror films. During this time we

would happen if a teenager was a werewolf, zombie, or even a vampire.

It IS a wavelength thing. Terry Gilliam's films are ALL Terry Gilliam
films. They all have that certain something, some kind of feeling about

not work for everybody. For the people that just can't get into Gilliam

I was never really crazy about the Hitchcock version of this story. Hitch
too often "fiddled" with an original story, and although so often made a
great movie, it was seldom true to the story as it was first written. The
later remake with Kenneth Moore, was a little more glossy, but flat. But
with this version, we finally get the story as it was written. Superior
