"Us loners got to stick together."

There's plenty of kicking. Some awesome Post Apocalypse imagery. Some neat cyborg effects. A great fight in the rain. A crazy scene involving barbed wire and a well. Plus a plot that feels like it could have partly inspired The Last of Us. I enjoy the heck out of Albert Pyun's Cyborg. Hell, I enjoy the whole Cyborg series.

Watched on Tuesday June 10, 2025.

Outland mixed with Total Recall, with some '90's ass kicking.

Watched on Friday June 6, 2025.

Asshole scientist experiments on himself and becomes bigger asshole. Also the last 5 to 10 minutes are wacky.

Fun follow up to Battle for the Lost Planet.

They didn't need to go all in on the crazy post earthquake LA Apocalypse, but they did. More dumb fun then it has any right to be. Robert Patrick low key hams it up and Alyssa Milano is insanely '90's. Also, holy crap those shorts!

PM always delivers with explosions,car wrecks and shootouts.

Kumite! Kumite! Kumite!

There's a real charming vibe to Laserblast, plus it's got Eddie Deezen.

Insanity and action from start to finish. JCVD plays a retired Ethan Hunt style super spy who sports a George Clooney hairdo and ends up at an Island for retired spies straight out of The Prisoner. Dennis Rodman is an arms dealer who runs his operation out of a sex club and is pals with a bunch of cyber monks. A very buff Mickey Rourke is the bad guy named Stavros. Every time someone mentioned his name, it made me laugh, I don't know why. Belloq (Ivan Ooze if your nasty) is the head of The Colony, The Prisoner style island. JCVD fights a tiger. There's a barefoot assassin with a switchblade between his toes. A bunch of Coke machines get blown up. And if glass getting smashed is your kink, this is the movie for you. I miss '90's action films.

A mix of The Thing and a Dr. Who episode from the '70's. Pure awesome.

Decent sci-fi action film with some solid word building and set design.

Jet Li in the Multiverse of Madness. I like to imagine somewhere in the multiverse I'm married to a version of Carla Gugino.

Hadn't seen this since it came out in the theater when I was still in high school. It's an enjoyable sci-fi action film that was greatly screwed over by the studio.

2nd time watching this, I enjoyed it more.

"I realize you must have gone through hell."
"Gone? Bitch, we're still here!"

Been ages since I saw this. I like The Abyss a lot, but this is more my jam.

Another slasher on blu that I hadn't seen in ages. A fun slasher involving Vikings and Buck Flower being Buck Flower.

Hadn't seen this in a few years. Watching the VS blu-ray greatly improved my enjoyment of the film over the old Mill Creek off VHS copy. A fun late '80's slasher with some amusing characters.

"What do you know about painting, anyway? Really, what do you know about paint? I'll tell you what you know about paint, man: you don't know nothing about paint, man. You know what you know about? You know about how to bitch and how to eat and how to bitch and how to shit and how to bitch! But you don't know nothing about paint, so don't tell me when it's going to be done. I'll tell you when it's going to be done."

Beautiful film. And those CinemaScope landscapes are amazing.

Cool thriller I seeing on cable when I was in high school. I used to get it mixed up with Funeral Home and The Unseen. Kind of had a thing for the actress that plays the sister back then.

Underrated gem from Empire's catalog and a classic VHS rental. Everything in this movie is totally '80's, just love how garish and bright it is. Hilarious how inappropriate the parents' paintings are with kids around. OD is the best. A gooey, campy blast.

I was going through a box of random comics in the closet, I came across the Marvel adaption of House II, so I figured it was time to revisit this odd, screwball movie. I love that the House franchise is just sort of all over the place as far as the films go. This one is just a fun romp that reminds me of something like a Three Stooges or Abbott and Costello film, if it was written on Scarface levels of cocaine with effects by Jim Henson.

The movie is OK. The Anthrax score is fantastic.

They don't make 'em like this anymore. Epic low budget sci-fi adventure. Mad Dog looks like a cross between Sylvester Stallone and Negan.

Watched on Friday May 16, 2025.

Cool revenge movie with a badass female ninja going against a drug cartel.

Peak Godfrey Ho brain melter.

The movie abruptly cuts to black.
Me jokingly: "The End"
The movie. Actually The End.
Me: "Fair enough."

It certainly is.

"Let me tell you something. If anybody else gets hurt on that plane... it's gonna take a hell of a lot more than a prison cell to keep me from ripping your fucking nuts off."

It takes a little while, but once this sucker gets to the action, it's mayhem and brutal violence all the time. Christy Chung as the thief and Elaine Lui as the cold-hearted bad girl were the standouts. They have a great battle towards the end that climaxes in a brutal finish.

And Everett McGill as Mike Pence!
The movie feels like the train level of a video game. Seagal is his usual lecherous thinks he's a badass but really ain't self. His stuntman does all the work. He just throws his arms around like he's the Flash catching bullets. There's a couple cute moments where he almost shows emotion. There's also a nice bunch of character actors in this one. I actually like this one over part one. Sure the first one had better villains and was slicker looking, but I prefer this one. It's got that DTV '90's action movie look, a leaner runtime and it's cheesy as fuck.

What the fuck was going on in this film? I have no clue but I loved every damn minute of it. The dude in charge of the lodge was like a mummified Neil Patrick Harris with the mannerisms and voice of John Wintergate from Boardinghouse.

The Big Noirvember 2024 List

*It's that time of year. Nights get longer. Shadows get darker. This is the Big Noirvember.

This year, the job's tougher: You need to watch 30 noirs in 30 days. This is no Long Noirvember, doll face. It's the Big Noirvember now. You'll need to be scrappier. Quicker. Smarter. And no cheating, wise guy! Watch these pictures between November 1, 2024, and November 30, 2024.

Pick one moving picture from each category below. Otherwise, pick your poisons. Mix it up with classics (released 1941 to 1958) and neo-noirs all you want. Watch something you never saw before, or revisit an old favorite. Use your own judgment on what counts as "film noir." Use the lists linked below for ideas—but follow your nose.

You've got 30 days, gumshoe. Better get to work.*

Film Noir started out as a genre I liked and over the years have grown to love. It's up there next to my other two favorite genres, Slasher films and Giallo.

This is what I'm watching for Scarecrow Video's annual October horror movie challenge.

Psychotronic:

-adjective

Denoting or relating to a genre of films that typically have a science fiction, horror, or fantasy theme and were made on a low budget.

-Oxford English Dictionary

We staff don’t necessarily subscribe to the low budget part of that definition since movies like A Quiet Place Part II and Terminator 2: Judgement Day are not exactly low budget affairs but are well within the above mentioned sub-genres. That being said, we do like an underdog more often than not and when you’re challenging the mean you might as well have a lot of fun pushing yourself to new lows.

The basic guidelines are:

Watch at least 1 movie per day during the month of October in whatever order suits you.
Must fall within the psychotronic definition.
Have fun and get weird.
