Bio: I'm going to fudge my rankings and uprank movies that are my actual favorites. My favorite movies are rarely the best in craft. And while one of my favorites may be the expertly crafted The Godfather, I'm not going to be using this unique opportunity to recommend you something you already know you should see. If you were waiting for me personally to convince you to watch Seven Samurai, you have put too much pressure on a guy that likes Michael Dudikoff films. I had previously given Ravenous an 86 when in reality it's a 75 tops. Now it's a 100. Welcome to my recommendations.

"Hair topped Hogan is jarring to see but he's trying. The locations are great, there's more extras shooting guns than you'd expect for a tv movie sequel. This is way more fun than expected. Picked in memoriam of Carl Weathers and he didn't disappoint. Probably the tamest Shannon Tweed movie I've seen but not the worst."

| 72 72% | The Hound of the Baskervilles (1959) - Rated 16 Apr 2024
"The filmmakers took one of the most famous stories of all time and added Cushing and Lee. The watchability of this couldn't have been finer tuned in a lab."

| 74 76% | The Hound of the Baskervilles (1939) - Rated 16 Apr 2024
"Basil Rathbone is more excited to play Sherlock Holmes in disguise than any other actor has been to just play Sherlock in general, and we're all the victors for it."

| 45 15% | First Love, Last Rites (1997) - Rated 15 Apr 2024
"A young couple in love get life all over the place as they screw around a dilapidated house both figuratively and literally. As with any good relationship the in-laws just about bury it under their own failures and misgivings. Meandering but not in the attractive Night Moves with Gene Hackman way."

| 32 5% | Last Rites (1980) - Rated 15 Apr 2024
"If you watched Dead and Buried and thought it needed the Phantom Menace treatment because of course the town politics must be just as fascinating as the murders, than have I got a movie for you! I am for some of the atmosphere here and would put this on without sound in the background of a spooky event but I would do that with a lot more than a normal functioning person. If you read enough of my reviews you'd think there's constantly horror playing in the background, and you'd be close to right."

"I'm going to posit my own theory on the circumstances of the execution that takes place in this film at the hands of a scorned wife. Hear me out now, while it is true that the husband is caught in the act of fornication, I truly believe that that is just circumstantial and that the actual reasoning behind the homicidal intrusion is because of what we see when he's caught, that of course being his miniscule endowment. He's small folks. Confidence boosting for the viewers small. small"

| 54 27% | Cold Heaven (1991) - Rated 12 Apr 2024
"I was very excited at the prospect of affair guilt manifesting into a supernatural experience but I got lost in the shuffle somewhere, the middle slogging to the point that the end didn't jolt me awake enough to reclaim any good will. A pity because I'd let Theresa Russell jolt me all night...if I wasn't married...and scared of supernatural affair guilt manifestations."
