Village of the Giants is sort of your typical fantasy-comedy from the 1960s and easy to see why it was mocked on Mystery Science Theater 3000, but without them, watching on its own is kind of a chore as for the most part it’s fairly dull.
Clifford the Big Red Dog is a safe movie for the entire family, but especially the young ones with clean humor and wholesome message. Nothing great but still harmless.
The F/X movies are by no means great but they are good, old-fashioned fun with Bryan Brown making for a charismatic lead along with Brian Dennehy who is great in every scene.
Murphy’s Law isn’t Charles Bronson at his best and is more memorable for the young Kathleen Wilhoite and her plethora of lovely insults which makes this so hilarious and the story at least is serviceable with a great and utterly scary villainous.
The Skulls franchise isn’t great by any means and while none of them are awful, they never really tapped into what could’ve been a fun, over-the-top thriller and instead each was rather forgettable.
Apex is just another poorly made direct-to-video flick with Bruce Willis likely showing up for a day or two, though I will say he at least attempts to give some semblance of a performance instead of the blank expression he often shows in these types of movies.
Fortress is nothing that I haven’t seen before from these direct-to-video films with an uninspiring story and another mundane performance from Bruce Willis with his now usual blank, expressionless face.
Wayne’s World is an all-around funny music-comedy showcasing both Mike Myers’s and Dana Carvey’s talents and the movie still holds up all these years later.
Impasse is an adventure comedy starring a young Burt Reynolds along with Anne Francis, arrived on Blu-ray courtesy of Kino Lorber on January 11th.
I can respect the talent of Edgar Wright as he is a visually great filmmaker and while I wasn’t totally engrossed with his latest outing, I will say Last Night in Soho is well worth checking out.
Superhost is a passably entertaining horror-thriller thanks to Gracie Gillum’s performance as an imbalanced crazy person while the social commentary on vlogging is pretty fun to watch.
Halloween Kills is an ill-conceived follow-up to 2018’s Halloween which itself was an ill-conceived sequel to the 1978 original. There’s not much here to admire outside a couple technical aspects, and it doesn’t give me much hope for Halloween Ends.
