Bio: I like to think I have a very wide interest in film but I have a particular soft spot for: horror, samurai/jidaigeki, spaghetti westerns and 70's kung fu flicks.

Platoon Leader
Platoon Leader (1988) - Rated 24 Sep 2014
Surprisingly good! The Dudikoff does a good job, the production qualities were better than expected and the action is all well done.

Wolf Devil Woman
Wolf Devil Woman (1982) - Rated 28 Aug 2014
Abandoned at birth! Raised and trained by wolves (actually German Shepherds)! She is Wolf Girl! In this early 80's piece of insanity she fights The Devil who is some sort of sorcerer Klan member who is freezing people to death and murdered her parents. She also graphically mutilates live rabbits and chickens. She also wears a stuffed animal (again, a German Shepherd) as a hat. The strangest part though, is that she's also the writer/director. Who in their right mind thinks this stuff up??

Nightmare Sisters
Nightmare Sisters (1988) - Rated 10 Oct 2012
One of the crown gems of 80's b-horror! Three of the genre's greatest scream queens have an extended bathtub scene in the midst of 15 minutes of nude time capped off by Linnea Quigley performing a strip-tease rock song. The dialogue is an unending string of corny sexual innuendo ("Give me your throbbing python of love!") and cheeseball college cliches ("You booger head!") and the sound effects are clearly done by a ten year old. This is must-see stuff for fans of the genre!

U.S. Catman: Lethal Track
U.S. Catman: Lethal Track (1990) - Rated 06 Aug 2014
Jesus wow! This first Catman flick is quite possibly the greatest thing Godfrey Ho has ever given us! Catman's posing is hilarious, his fight scenes are hilarious, the evil cult is utterly ridiculous (and hilarious) and the action is wonderful and non-stop! And, just like the summary says, the rest of the movie is just random asian dudes beating the crap out of eachother!

Resident Evil: Degeneration
Resident Evil: Degeneration (2008) - Rated 17 Dec 2008
Like watching an idiot play a resident evil game, which means it's still better than both of the Jovovich sequels.

Godzilla vs. Megalon
Godzilla vs. Megalon (1973) - Rated 05 Jan 2009
I never thought I'd see a cross between a buddy cop movie, pro-wrestling and brokeback mountain but, well, here it is. In fact it's a lot of fun!

Pedicab Driver
Pedicab Driver (1989) - Rated 23 Jul 2008
Great fights! (Sammo vs. Chia-Liang Liu), Great action! (Long pedicab/car chase), Nicely done humor, romance and drama. Lots of big names. I can't recommend this movie enough, one of Sammo's best!

Adam Chaplin
Adam Chaplin (2011) - Rated 17 Jan 2014
Great return-to-form for Italian splatter! I cracked up before the boss fight when Adam shows up parading around with the bad guy's son impaled on a pole.

The Italian Connection
The Italian Connection (1972) - Rated 31 May 2011
Classic influential Italian crime flick from the 70's that features one of the greatest car chases ever put to film. Woody Strode and Henry Silva's killer characters were the basis for Tarantino's Jules and Vincent in Pulp Fiction.
