House on Haunted Hill
Boo and Boo again – Castle lives! While earlier this year Jan DeBont’s remake of The Haunting failed because it lacked the emotional connection to hold it’s marvelous f/x together, William Malone’s update of the 1958 William Castle camp classic succeeds … Continue reading

Mystery Men
All In Color for $5.25 (matinees) The Flaming Carrot is cartoonist Bob Burden’s most original and inspired creation, but that big carrot mask must’ve scared off facetime-loving Hollywood, so his second greatest creation gets the movie treatment instead.

The Haunting
Boo! The first half of Jan DeBont’s remake of Robert Wise’ The Haunting, based on Shirley Jackson’s novel, does a pretty righteous job of honoring its source. The characters are lively and colorful, with some cute and pertinent new twists. … Continue reading

The Dividing Hour VHS
Actually more like an hour and a half This independent feature is a little bit Reservoir Dogs, a little bit Carnival of Souls, and a little bit o’ soul thrown in. Four bickering slackers get together to rob a bank, … Continue reading
Mulan
Disney’s Animated Transvestite A few short years ago, Disney ripped off Japanese animation god Osamu Tezuka’s character Leo (Kimba) the White Lion for their biggest hit ever, The Lion King. For their new animated feature, they mine Tezuka territory again, … Continue reading

Event Horizon
An Event Picture – from Hell It’s got the necessary psychotronic bait: great f/x, oceans of blood and gore, spaceships, monsters, cult actors Sam Neill and Larry Fishbourne – even a bit of nudity. But director Paul Anderson’s follow-up to … Continue reading

The Crow: City of Angels
Tar & Feathers Why this unnecessary sequel is set in LA beats me. This poor retread looks the same as Detroit did in the great original. Good perfs by punk vets Iggy Pop and Ian Dury, but otherwise there’s really … Continue reading
