It’s one of the strangest films you’ll see. And it gets a high recommendation from us. Why? Ted Nicolaou directed more than […]
14. SUBJECT TO SURVEILLABILITY: Ever feel like you’re being watched? Decades before reality TV, live-streaming and The Truman Show, Paul Bartel’s surreal paranoia classic, The Secret Cinema, proved that someone is always watching. Before he gave us the glorious, dystopian carnage of Death Race 2000 or Eating Raoul, Bartel cobbled together $5,000, snagged leftover black-and-white […]

Terminal Island has been created as an offshore island prison after the abolition of the death penalty by the U.S. Supreme Court. Now, first-degree murderers are sent there to spend the rest of their lives battling to remain alive in what has become a lawless place. Kind of like Escape from New York, only eight […]
