Re: 35 Shots of Rum

I guess trying to explain why I loved this movie is like trying to explain why Mozart is great to someone who doesn't listen to classical music. Opera bores me to death, but at least I accept some...

Re: Hendrix

Wood Harris is the best part of this film. His relaxed style makes you actually think he's the real McCoy. The story is entertaining, but not exceptional and we don't get to see enough into the...

Great classic stuff here. In my mind Lon Chaney Jr. was always my favorite Wolfman. You really feel sorry for Lawrence Stewart Talbot being cursed with lycanthropy. In this set you get:
