Zardoz by John Boorman (4/10)

Posted on Jul. 8, 2005 - 5:49 pmOct. 13, 2020 - 9:57 pm

Yeah that’s right, a novelization of Zardoz. It’s just as inexplicable as the movie.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince by J. K. Rowling (10/10)

Posted on Jul. 8, 2005 - 5:45 pmOct. 13, 2020 - 9:57 pm

It was a good read even though it’s about wizards and other nerdy things.

Burial Ground: The Nights of Terror (6/10)

Posted on Jul. 6, 2005 - 5:37 pmSep. 18, 2020 - 5:39 pm

This one is so bad it’s good. Another Italian zombie movie. This one has bad overly lit make-up, no plot, ridiculous situations (a bear trap in the middle of the estate grounds), and a 30-year-old playing an 11 year-old with an Oedipus complex to the extreme.

The Streetfighter (8/10)

Posted on Jul. 6, 2005 - 5:37 pmSep. 18, 2020 - 5:37 pm

A violent and gritty kung-fu movie starring Sonny Chiba. Terrisan is basically playing a kung-fu version of Tuco from the Good, The Bad and The Ugly.

Don’t Torture a Duckling (8/10)

Posted on Jul. 6, 2005 - 5:36 pmSep. 18, 2020 - 5:36 pm

Early thriller by Lucio Fulci. Moves along pretty well , but the story is predictable with some laughably misplaced moments of violence and a few squirmy kids and sex moments.

The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou (8/10)

Posted on Jul. 6, 2005 - 5:35 pmSep. 18, 2020 - 5:35 pm

Much better than the Royal Tanenbaums. Slow paced and unfunny at times, but worth viewing for the art direction alone.

The Diabolical Doctor Z (6/10)

Posted on Jul. 6, 2005 - 5:34 pmSep. 18, 2020 - 5:35 pm

Low Budget 60s exploitation by Jess Franco. Entertaining, but not quite as stylish as I expected. The soundtrack is excellent and there is one or two memorable scenes.

Spellbound (7/10)

Posted on Jul. 6, 2005 - 5:33 pmSep. 18, 2020 - 5:34 pm

Documentary about National Spelling Bee. Not a terribly deep movie, but entertaining nonetheless.

The Bird with the Crystal Plumage (10/10)

Posted on Jul. 6, 2005 - 5:31 pmSep. 18, 2020 - 5:33 pm

Dario Argento murder thriller. Fairly ridiculous plot, but makes up for it in style, pacing and music.

Blind Fury (7/10)

Posted on Jul. 5, 2005 - 9:31 pmSep. 18, 2020 - 3:28 pm

Surprisingly good drug cartel style 80’s actioner about a blind martial artist hero played very well by Rutger Hauer.
