    Rec (as in “record”, because the entire film is seen through the eye of the cameraman) is a total thrill ride of a movie. Made in Barcelona, it’s a Spanish film, hopefully, you’ll find a copy with subtitles, that revolves around a local TV reporter named Angela Vidal and her cameraman Pablo as they…

  Originally released straight to video, this little gem of a movie was actually really good and was immediately taken off the shelves and released in theaters everywhere. A perfect Halloween movie with lots of horror, action, and even a good dose of comedy as well.        Angela, a total goth chick (who, by…

   This is the only movie that Cher ever made that she absolutely didn’t want anyone to see. Unfortunately for her (but fortunately for us) Sonny owned the rights to the movie, not Cher. So when Sonny died, his heirs decided to make some money by releasing it on DVD. But before the DVD release,…

     Salem’s Lot is a miniseries made from Stephen King’s second book. In my opinion, the miniseries was just as scary as the book, it did have some changes but the changes made were actually a lot scarier when seen on film. Salem’s Lot was made in the 1970s for people who were too…

   Session 9 is a complicated movie, but once you’ve figured out what has really happened, it becomes a puzzle well worth solving. An asbestos removal crew is hired for a job at an abandoned insane asylum. Crew leader Gordon seems unusually tired and complains that his infant daughter has an ear infection and cries…

     This is one of the more mainstream cult films out there (translation for mainstream-they had a little bit of money to spend on production and had a rising newcomer for the lead actress, Barbara Hershey). It became a little more well-known due to the DVD release.       I have to admit,…

   I’ll say it upfront… this is a really dumb movie. The overall concept isn’t that bad, but the execution is ridiculous. The tagline is funny though “Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water… you can’t get to it.” An obvious ripoff from “Jaws”.        Anyway, the…

    This is an incredibly erratic story, with a lot of unexplained content, but I’ll see if I can clean it up a little so that it can be somewhat understandable.        OK, the movie starts out with a couple screwing in an old abandoned house. The boyfriend goes missing (I guess he…

    This is a great little flick circa 1984, starring Daphne Zuniga when no one had any idea who the hell Daphne Zuniga was. Many may still not know because past the 90’s she kind of disappeared. This was her first feature film actually and it isn’t a bad one, all things considered. It’s got…

     This is a very in-your-face documentary on the topic of sex changes and transgenderism. And I mean that truly, it literally takes you from start to finish, into the nether regions that not so many of us wanted to see or know about (I can’t say “all of us” because there’s something for…
