Movies for sleepless nights. Thursday, December 31, 2009. Icons of Sci-Fi: Toho Collection / Columbia DVD. Kudos to Columbia for putting out these "Icons of." sets on DVD.

Movies for sleepless nights. Wednesday, March 31, 2010. Hell In The Pacific (1968). Even though this is my third entry on the films of John Boorman, I've watched 6 so far and the main thing I can say about his early films is that they are about genre deconstruction. Every film is technically a genre film; Zardoz. Is sci-fi, Point Blank. A thriller, and Hell in the Pacific. Links to this post. Tuesday, March 30, 2010. 20TH Century Fox DVD. It seems that Zardoz.

Wednesday, August 13, 2014. Sally Go 'Round the Chainsaw: Marilyn Burns (1949 - 2014). Whenever I hear actors talk about how hard their job can be, I usually roll my eyes.
