.Breakout City Travel Guides > VHS > Cult Movies starring: Charles Bronson, Robert Duvall, Jill Ireland, Randy Quaid, Sheree North directed by: Tom Gries March 21, 2000 Here we have a very talkative Charles Bronson in a sub-par prison escape film. It seemed like more of a comedy than anything else. A nice turn by Randy Quaid as Bronsons goofy mechanic and a small part for Duvall. I still can't figure out why on the theatrical poster it shows a helicopter flying with a man dangling from a rope!?! It never happened in this movie but it is fun nonetheless. Just make sure you've checked out The White Buffalo, Stone Killer and St. Ives before you bother with this. >>See More Reviews & Details on Breakout |

.Children of the Corn II: The Final Sacrifice City Travel Guides > VHS > Cult Movies starring: Terence Knox, Paul Scherrer, Ryan Bollman, Ned Romero, Christie Clark directed by: David Price Who can ever forget the gloomy classic "Children of the corn" with its dark, beautiful, and gloomy melody and of course...it WILL make you laugh...because it promises more guffaws then terror. Micah, the new leader which is a shame for the Isaac fans, is showing his world from his eyes...but with a demonic demon possessing him and trying to regain followers which loses the almost flawless purpose of the film. It takes a turn here, as all Stephen King films usualy do and it is actually a "Disease" that Micah and the children are being possessed by, and He who Walks Behind The Rows does play a small role...note, small role. Same point to the original as the novel where Stephen King gave out his rough draft to the masses. A few reviewers here say ...

.Yellow Submarine Cial Edition) City Travel Guides > VHS > Cult Movies starring: John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Ringo Starr, Paul Angelis directed by: George Dunning (II) April 01, 2003 In my case that was 1969. That's when I saw this in a double billing with Barbarella (1968) at West Point, NY. The music is great and it brings back a part of history. Can the Beatles save Pepperland? Remember we all live in a Yellow Submarine. Instead of just buying the soundtrack, buy the movie and you have them both. I guess I will have to buy it also to hear "Hey, Bulldog!" Of course as with most movies there will always be someone one that prefers the original and knows that it was cut that way on purpose. And now it is time for a whole new generation to enjoy. >>See More Reviews & Details on Yellow Submarine Cial Edition) |

.Somewhere in Time City Travel Guides > VHS > Cult Movies starring: Christopher Reeve, Jane Seymour, Christopher Plummer, Teresa Wright, Bill Erwin directed by: Jeannot Szwarc March 01, 1992 I've never been able to understand the appeal of this refuse. Time travel, by means of scientific theory is silly enough, but wishing it to happen? Please. Who needs Dr. Kevorkian? This thing will have you reaching for the melon ballers and carpenter awls to remove your eyes and puncture your eardrums for relief from this atrocity. >>See More Reviews & Details on Somewhere in Time |

.200 Motels City Travel Guides > VHS > Cult Movies starring: Frank Zappa, Theodore Bikel, Mark Volman, Howard Kaylan, Ian Underwood directed by: Tony Palmer, Frank Zappa March 17, 1993 First of all, the one thing that a lot of people miss about Zappa was that he was a master "resource" utilizer. - - He knew what he wanted his projects to look and sound like, and was great enough of an artist/producer to find/discipline people capable of delivering his vision - - So the big question : Despite his notorious reputation for his mixture of music and oddball stage antics, given a REAL big budget to make a real big motion picture, could he pull something off ? - - The answer... UNBELIEVABLY FRIGGIN' YES ! ! ! - - The film captures the MOTHERS in their prime circa the antics of FLO & EDDIE... the bizarre stage routines of his group are MELTED together by a great theme... that TOURING can make you crazy... though surreal, beyond the paranoia and psychadelic wierdness, ...

.American Pop City Travel Guides > VHS > Cult Movies starring: Beatrice Colen, Roz Kelly, Lynda Wiesmeier, Richard Singer, Vincent Schiavelli directed by: Ralph Bakshi May 01, 2001 Sure the animation is interesting for a few minutes (if you are interested in rotoscoping see Waking Life) but the story and writing are horrible and bordem sets in within ten minutes. You will hang in for a bit waiting for somthing to happen but it won't so don't bother with this movie, it's painful to sit through (and I love rotoscoping). >>See More Reviews & Details on American Pop |

.Heavy Metal City Travel Guides > VHS > Cult Movies starring: Glenis Wootton Gross, Douglas Kenney, Joseph Golland, Len Doncheff, Vlasta Vrana directed by: Gerald Potterton November 23, 1999 Some critics and film historians have labeled 1981's HEAVY METAL as the last film to genuinely reflect the mishmash sensibilities of the post-hippy 1970s counter-culture, and stylistically and thematically this appears to be true. Based on the adult counter-culture cult comic of the same name, HEAVY METAL definitely is a sort of spacey concatenation of disparate visual aesthetics and heterogeneous science-fiction/fantasy narratives. But despite being a hodgepodge as a whole, the film still manages to offer a very entertaining way to kill 90 minutes. As with the magazine, the film is basically aimed at horny male adolescents, offering plenty of nude, amply bosomed women running around in the midst of stylized violence and gore; lots of rock music (though these ditties from popular metal ...
