  This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

  Nympho psycho old lady wants to be loved! What an idea for a film. Kinda like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, except the killers ain’t eating people, they out for the poon and the D.  

  I thought this was pretty good. Ti West clearly knows what he’s doing in the director’s chair. The most interesting stuff I feel are his commentary on the portrayal of sexuality in media, and West’s dedication to showing this commentary through both dialogue, plot and…

  Streets of Fire 1984

  ★★★★ Watched 20 Nov 2022 4

  A Rock and Roll Fable ✨ 🎸 ✨ 
  Watched on Blu-ray (thanks Shout Factory)

  Streets of Fire, Cool lil’ cult film. Gritty AF, Rad AF, and Stylish Noir Action all set to a fun rock soundtrack.

  The acting is pretty over the top on this one, filled to the brim with characters that don’t take shit from anyone. Yeah, not sure, there are moments where I can’t tell if the acting is good or just some over the top cheese. But…

  Big Trouble in Little China 1986

  ★★★★ Watched 26 Jan 2023

  "All I know is this 'Lo Pan' character comes out of thin air in the middle of a goddamn alley while his buddies are flying around on wires cutting everybody to shreds, and he just stands there waiting for me to drive my truck straight through him, with light coming out of his mouth!"

  Wow! I think I need to watch more John Carpenter flicks. Every time I sit down and watch one of the lesser-known Carpenter flicks (The Halloweens…

  Eaten Alive 1976

  ★★ Watched 24 Jan 2023

  ‘Meet the Maniac… and his friend’
  That’s the tagline, and that’s basically it. That’s the movie. You don’t need to watch this lol

  But in case you’re curious…
  Swampy Spoilers for a movie from 1976

  Eaten Alive is an interesting lil’ horror film from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre director, Tobe Hooper. Has a similar premise to that movie with the whole ‘the victims go to the rural horror’, but it lacks the gritty and unrelenting nature of that classic. This one……

  Thief 1981

  ★★★★ Watched 22 Jan 2023

  Finally sat down to watch Michael Mann’s Thief today on Tubi. As a fan of Mann’s other films, Heat in particular, this was a highly anticipated watch for me.

  Sleek Spoilers from the Streets for a movie from ‘81

  Mann drops us into the dark yet beautifully lit streets of Chicago. Thief is filled with hard nose criminals amongst these dark streets. Our protagonist is the no-nonsense badass, James Cann’s Frank. His character has a commanding and unhinged presence throughout.…

  Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla 1974

  ★★★½ Rewatched 23 Jan 2023

  Giant Sized Kaiju Spoilers for a movie from 1974

  Something is very wrong in Japan friends! Godzilla is acting very strange. He shouldn’t attack his friend Anguirus. Wait… is that Godzilla or a… a Mechagodzilla?!?!

  Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla is my personal favourite of the later Godzilla films from the first series of films, the Showa era. I’m lucky enough to own the out of print Sony DVD. And this is fun one! Filled with crazy explosions, an alien invasion plot…
