Lure four young ladies to the house and perform some kind of ritual and the DeLorca pox may be lifted from their clan. This resembles an Andy Milligan film in many ways. A topless scene opens the movie. The seedy backwater Florida locations provide wonderful atmosphere slightly undone by dime-store fangs. This film bleeds 1972. BA

Jennifer Jones plays the invalid poetess Elizabeth Barret. Elizabeth falls for a man and her father is outraged, making her swear to never see the man again, and also unambiguously sending some creepy incest vibes about, and practically imprisoning Elizabeth.

The fatal charm of a honeymoon killer. Martin Kemp delivers a truly sinister performance. BA
AA161 City of the Dead (60) aka: Horror Hotel Essential Satanic Horror classic with a truly shocking first part followed by a wickedly satisfying tale of the macabre.

Directed by Ken Russell the film takes us into the realm of the pre-Raphaelite art movement of the late 1800's. Rossetti falls into derangement and despair, the film is bohemian and downbeat, taking us into an era of artists and the women they shared as they desperately strife for immortality through their works. Ken Russell was so impressed with Oliver Reed's commitment, he began planning 'The Devil's' with the intent of placing Oliver Reed in the lead role, which he did a few years later, a film so controversial it still offends many well into the 21st century.
AA154 Escape by Night (53) An abandoned theater in London is just the place to hide out for an Italian gangster (Sidney James).

AA421 Isadora: The Biggest Dancer in the World (66) Ken Russell directs this tribute piece to Isadora (Vivian Pickles) as she goes from one lover, school and cause to the next before embarking to communist Russia. Isadora browbeat all in her path, devouring men like a preying mantis, consuming herself from the inside out. This is a different interpretation than the Vanessa Redgrave version, and not nearly as long. Isadora Duncan died in 1927 when her scarf was caught in the axle of a car. Strangled at 50. She lived every day like it was her last.
AA358 Kisses at Fifty (73) Play for Today The story of working man of fifty years of age in a marriage that is past it's due date. Zero passion. He feels times winged chariot drawing near and falls in love with a woman who returns his affections.

Complex Thriller Noir loosely based on the Edgar Wallace novel. BA
AA143 Rebecca (79) A naive self-conscious young woman (Joanna David) marries a very wealthy aristocrat widower (Jeremy Brett).

The main suspect is a mentally challenged young man, whose hobby is collecting broken glass. A red herring? Other suspects provide more mystery. Then, another woman is viciously slain. The killer has a problem with women, an urge to kill them. Lots of actors here one notable being Yvonne Buckingham who played Christine Keeler in 1963's 'The Christine Keeler Story'. BA
AA318 Witness for the Prosecution (82) A good remake of a great story. Leonard Vole (Beau Bridges), married to Christine (Diana Rigg) is accused of seducing and murdering a wealthy woman to get some sort of an inheritance.

MISCELLANEOUS FILMS SPY, ACTION, WAR, DRAMA, COMEDY, MARTIAL ARTS ETC
AA311 Acid Delerium of the Senses (68) aka: Acid - Delirio dei sensi Hippies versus organized crime meets pseudo-documentary in one psychedelic LSD trip. The movie offers the scene as it existed in Italy at the time as people turn on and flip out, even getting naked and splashing around in a fountain. Stephen Forsyth (the mannequin maniac from 'Hatchet for a Honeymoon') is spotted along with John Bartha and Humphrey Osmond, the well-known at the time psychiatrist who used and advocated the use of mind-altering drugs and invented the word 'psychedelic' which he introduced to Aldous Huxley. Italian with English subtitles BA
AA296 Bimini Code (83) aka: Raiders of the Lost Code When a young boy disappears in the Bermuda Triangle.... this leads to pretty, fit and athletic women in bikinis swimming underwater. A lot! The movie taught me that people can speak underwater (which I'll try next time I go scuba diving). You can hear what the brunette Sheryl says before she is rescued by blonde Stacy. The boy had been kidnapped when he was found poking his nose into a drug operation. The evil Countess Magda von Cress, a viper blonde using the drug money in her search for the lost Mayan Power Stone! Ridiculous fun, but more entertaining than 'Raiders of the Lost Ark' which you have seen 100 times. BA
AA255 Bloody Brood, The (59) Shot in sixteen days for $80 grand and still more entertaining than the latest $250 million dollar Hollywood stinker. Peter Falk (in his first big role) is one of the hoodlum/beatniks named Nico. Cold. A sadist punk. He feeds a messenger boy a hamburger loaded with ground glass. Nico leads a group of Canadian beatniks, the same group the brother of the dead kid infiltrates, posing as a fellow beater. Beatnik. Whatever. Man, I'm bored with the scene man! Priceless hip talk, Falk is scary and unpredictable. BA
AA313 Blue Jeans and Dynamite (74) aka: Bloody Sun aka: La dynamite est bonne à boire Jonathan (Christopher Mitchum) signs a two year contract to work in a South American copper mine. The boss/owner is ruthless and the men are driven hard like slaves.

Dynamite is the drug in this brutal fight for survival. Widescreen BA
AA399 By Satan Possessed: The Search for the Devil (93) The Satanic Panic was still in full swing. See interviews with some very ugly women as they tell us all of the terrible things they endured in the name of Satan. Yea, sure. The only way anyone would ever talk to them is because they made up a pack of lies. Still, there is other footage, other revelations, other indications of the one true hell and Satan's influence in the world. Uh, no, this is simply a pandering to the simple-minded and the superstitious. A fascinating character study with lots of information, most either blatant lies, or just misguided, and no real facts or evidence of anything supernatural.
AA359 Dangerous Liaisons (59) aka: Les liaisons dangereuses Juliette (Jeanne Moreau) and Valmonte (Gerard Philipe) are jaded and sophisticated sexual swingers. Juliette is evil. They sleep with others and share their experiences with one another. They have one lock solid rule. Never fall in love. Valmonte falls madly in love with Marianne (Annette (Blood and Roses) Stryberg). How could he not? Juliette is cute, but Marianne.... holy ... whatever! The dangers of promiscuity and open-marriage shenanigans. Controversial at the time, and banned in England on it's original release. Gerard Philipe would die of liver cancer before the release of this film at age 36. Widescreen In French with English subtitles BA
AA222 Devil and Leroy Bassett, The (73) aka: Pistol-Packin' Leroy After daring to free their friend Keema (Codey Bearpaw) from jail, the three not very bright Basset brothers, seemingly led by one Leroy Basset (John F. Goff), go on the lam. Keema shot the sheriff and killed the deputy. A little twist. At a mountain cabin they rob the family 'Zornes’ of their camper, while the posse closes in. Also starring George 'Buck' Flower as one of the brothers. BA
AA400 Dirty, Dirty Jokes (84) Redd Foxx is the host of this raunchy joke collection featuring six of the funniest blue comics around including Andrew Dice Clay, Reynaldo Clay and more. Remember, this is 1984. Many young folks will not appreciate this brand of comedy. However, I suggest putting it on with a group of college kids and then sit back and watch them squirm. Dirty, Dirty Jokes? You betcha'!
AA416 Echoes of Paradise (87) aka: Shadows of the Peacock An Australian woman named Maria (Wendy Hughes) dumps her husband and three children after discovering her husband is having an affair, runs off and has sex with a Balinese dancer named Raka (John Lone) and doesn't want it to end. Of course it has to, doesn't it? What's good for the goose.....
AA153 Future Shock (72) Orson Welles is your narrator as he guides us through the notion that technology is moving too fast for us humans to catch up with. Pollution is going to kill us all, and gay marriage between two men, apparently comparable to the aforementioned and shocking to 1972 viewers. Awesome moody Moog-synth keyboard sounds a stylistic forerunner of 'Blade Runner' future aesthetic. Cloning is discussed as a possibility. Will we harness technology, will we control societal excess? Orson Welles in his very best harbinger-of-doom voice lays it out for 1972 listeners. Like a doomy mondo. All of it wrong except the main notion, technology is moving beyond humans. 42 minutes
AA317 Gang War: Bangin' in Little Rock (94) Degenerate youth in Little Rock, Arkansas. To simply call them degenerates is not fair. Hopelessness and despair transcend social barriers so there are gang members of all races.... white, black, latinos... Rites of passage, a typical day in the life of, death, murder, camaraderie and.... gang lingo/slang defined. Take notes in case you ever find yourself in Little Rock. This is the not talked about underbelly of the city. Around an hour.
AA319 Glass Cage, The (64) aka: Don't Touch My Sister aka: Bed of Fire Set in a smoggy LA neighborhood. The fragmented opening with the killing of a prowler shows us that this director is not playing by the rules. Off-kilter angles, Freudian dreams and point-of-view sequences, bizarre settings and jagged cutting, existential dialogue. Beatniks, a nightmare sequence, several psychologically disturbed characters..... John Hoyt, Henry Darrow, Arlene Martel, Elisha Cook Jr., King Moody and more. Not to be confused with the Hammer film from 1955. This is 'The Glass Cage' from 1964.

His wife is dead the next day, presumably by her own hand. Ross is not pleased. Sporting an eye-patch which adds depth to his badassness, Ross goes on a slow rampage. Revenge is His Destiny.

How can you be pregnant? This film was played in some states high school health class. As far as this type goes, I would call this very realistic to real life. It's a fucking tragedy. Literally.

AA299 Diabolical Axe, The (65) aka: Santo vs. the Diabolical Hatchet The filmmakers inspiration for this El Santo addition is clearly Italian horror films of the period, especially Mario Bava, although there is also a time travel technique possibly nicked from Roger Corman's 'The Undead'. Santo's origin and purpose explained! Santo not only has wrestling moves, but also magic tricks! The satanic villain has the ability to pop up anywhere, at any time. His demon lair where he worships some kind of Bat-God is a gaudy-kitsch-funhouse nightmare. Finally with English subtitles! BA
AA363 Dracula Mascafierro (02) Imagine if Jess Franco were in Mexico making a low-budget erotic horror/comedy film with cellulite-challenged babes and cool locations settings. He would have been right at home. Wait, now he has to tone down his natural perverted proclivities and Lina has to stay home. This is what you would get, butt close-ups (one time a male in a hilarious scene) dumpy (but earnest) broads, and low and behold, some sort of mixed up practically incoherent plot! Watch for the surprise twist in the final moments! In Spanish -no subtitles
