Upgrade 2018

Back in 2018, an awesome film from Blumhouse just slipped out. Upgrade is a cyberpunk revenge thriller that is very violent and ultra-dark. The story is set in the near future, where humanity is getting into Ghost In The Shell territory with cybernetic upgrades, a Panopticon society, and enough to technology to make Ted KContinue reading “Upgrade 2018”

Ambush 2023

You all know I love a good war movie. I really love Vietnam war movies. I will give almost any of them a try. Always have. Going forward, from today I am changing this policy because I made the mistake of watching Ambush. Ambush is the newest ‘Nam flick that has just been released. IContinue reading “Ambush 2023”

STREET KINGS

David Ayer has made some pretty sweet flicks in my opinion. His crowning achievement being Fury. He has a real niche talent for gritty real-world crime films with shady cops. The best of these is our subject today. The 2008 effort Street Kings, starring Keanu Reeves. Reeves plays Tom Ludlow, a shady slob and heroContinue reading “STREET KINGS”

Savage Streets 1984

Do you like R-rated revenge flicks full of violence, tits, full-frontal nudity, gang rape, and  Linnea Quigley? I sure do. Come along with me on a journey into a movie with all of those wonderful, magical ingredients – Savage Streets. Savage Streets is a 1984 action-revenge film that is pure exploitation. There is no highContinue reading “Savage Streets 1984”

Death Wish 2018

Remember 2018? Boy… a lot has happened since then, huh? One of the small films that came out that year was Eli Roth’s remake of Death Wish, starring Bruce Willis. A huge action star and an (in)famous horror film maker teaming up. Was it any good? Well, let’s talk about that. The idea of aContinue reading “Death Wish 2018”

THE PALE BLUE EYE Review

From my friend Phil It was Saturday evening and there was nothing on regular TV to watch, so I had the choice of Glass Onion or The Pale Blue Eye. I wanted a well-crafted murder mystery, with an interesting story, well-directed, and made by a competent movie director, so of course, I put up TheContinue reading “THE PALE BLUE EYE Review”

WAY OF THE GUN

Way back in the year 2000 a little movie came out called Way Of The Gun that didn’t do that great at the box office. That was a shame. It’s since become something of a cult film and it’s pretty damn good. Way of The Gun is a neo-western mixed with an action/crime thriller. Jesus,Continue reading “WAY OF THE GUN”

Violent Night

A review of the new action Christmas film from my friend Phil at the LMO, I didn’t write this one but concur with it. Violent Night is a great Christmas movie and is now on my ‘must-watch’ list for each and every Christmas from here on. To make a great Christmas movie, here are theContinue reading “Violent Night”

Silent Night 2012

Silent Night is a 2012 remake of Silent Night, Deadly Night. Unlike most remakes, it’s pretty damned good. This is a remake done right. The concept of a killer maniac dressed as Santa running loose in a town is kept in place, as is a past trauma as his motive. For extra cool points, theContinue reading “Silent Night 2012”
