Werewolf of London (1935)
“Werewolf of London” almost never gets mentioned when one talks of the classic Universal horror flicks of the 30s and 40s. Yet it is as good or better than most of them. The story involves a biologist (Henry Hull) who…
The 27th Day (1957)
Grossly undervalued, under-marketed and overlooked piece of Scifi. Intellectually right up there with THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL and presenting in some ways many of the inter-racial and socially irresponsible foibles that human-kind finds so entrenched. Made at a…
Westworld (1973)
“Westworld” is supposed to be set in the future (as visualized back in 1973 when the film was made, apparently the computers of the future are really, really big, and the monitors are really, really small, lol), where pampered rich…
The Sugarland Express (1974)
After the success of Duel (which was really a TV movie) Sugarland Express (Spielberg’s first feature film) flopped at the box office, though it received a reasonably warm critical response. In fact this is a great little movie for all…

The Cobra (1967)

Beneath the Valley of the Ultra-Vixens (1979)
Russ Meyer’s films may be silly and irreverent, but they’re also great fun, and while Beneath the Valley of the Ultravixens is not his best work, it’s still great fun to watch and certainly comes recommended to Meyer’s fans! In…

Barbed Wire Dolls (1976)
Women in Prison movies come in several styles, ranging from tongue-in-cheek camp to disturbingly sadistic shockfests. Barbed Wire Dolls is a Jess Franco flick, so, as expected, it doesn’t really fit into any pigeonhole. Overall, it feels like watching a…
