Pete’s Dragon
PETE’S DRAGON (1977) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076538/ Directed by Don Chaffey I was a mere eight year old when PETE’S DRAGON first came out in 1977. I remember going to see it with my mother not really knowing what the heck I was about to see. I hear the songs now and I get misty eyed. It really was a huge hit for me when I was a kid. My parents really helped to foster my love of films by taking … Read entire article »

The Machine Girl and Machine Girl Lite
Machine Girl (2008) -Kataude mashin gâru- http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1050160/ Machine Girl Lite (2009) -The Hajirai Machine Girl- http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1319567/ Remember The Road Runner cartoon? Of course you do. Well, MACHINE GIRL and MACHINE GIRL LITE are the live action, Japanese action, deadly schoolgirl versions of the same. These films are candy for the fans of over the top, cartoon style gore and violence.

Bay Watch Restaurant

I’m not sure what it is exactly, but it bores me. I find it to be a waste of time more often than not. That’s why it’s amazing when I find a spot I want to eat in once a week, creating some kind of new tradition or somewhere I want to take out of town guest or the Pope if he were ever in town for a visit and gave me a ring. “Hey, Malco, want to go out for breakfast?” he’d say. I’d say, “Sure, Pope. I know the perfect place!” He’d love BAY WATCH RESTAURANT, a little … Read entire article »

Spiral
SPIRAL (2007) Directed by Adam Green and Joel Moore http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0491162/ I heard a lot of buzz about SPIRAL. So much that I avoided it like the plague for a while. I had heard that the less you know about it, the better it is and I wanted to hold to that just to be safe. I have spent too many sad times watching films that I had too much knowledge about. The height of this being the film … Read entire article »
