LEAGUE OF FORGOTTEN HEROES: Tex and the Lords of the Deep (1985)
“They say he came from the north, like the ice wins that sweep the prairies during the great winter. Tex Willer. From the furthest reaches of the Silver Mountains to the birth of the Blue River of the long canoes, his name was spoken with respect. Death rode at his side, ready to strike anyone. […]
Even more self-promotion
April Ghouls Drive-In Monster Rama wrapup
We had a blast at this year’s April Ghouls! Between the taco pizza, the fries with bacon and cheese and the Chilly Dilly (the personality pickle!), the food was superb. And it was a blast to run into Bill Van Ryn and Ryan Clark! Thanks to everyone who puts this event together, from George Reis […]
LEAGUE OF FORGOTTEN HEROES: Blankman (1994)
Daryl and Kevin Walker (Damon Wayans and David Alan Grier) are brothers who grew up idolizing Batman, watching the 1960’s show and dressing up and playacting crime fighting. As their neighborhood deteriorated around them, Kevin became a cameraman. Daryl may be a simple man-child, but he excels at repairing and inventing things. And he may […]
The Deadly Spawn (1983)
This was the last movie of a long weekend of drive-in fun. But eight movies in two days can be a test for your endurance and Becca just wanted to hear home. Luckily, I watched the beginning and finished via video in the days following! Also known as Return of the Aliens: The Deadly Spawn […]
Critters (1986)
We start in an asteroid prison, where the Krites hijack a spaceship and escape to Earth. The warden hires Ug (Terrence Mann) and another shapeshifting bounty hunter to follow them. As they study Earth transmissions, Ug takes the form of rock star Johnny Steele and the second remains blank. You will hear the song “Power […]
LEAGUE OF FORGOTTEN HEROES: Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins (1985)
It’s the same story we told about The Shadow. After Burton’s Batman, Hollywood wanted tentpole movies that could make sequel after sequel. So why not turn to men’s paperbacks, like The Destroyer, a series of 152 books written by the team of Warren Murphy and Richard Sapir (as well as some ghostwriters) that have 30 million books in […]
Alligator (1980)
There are moments in horror movies where even the most jaded of us can be upset at a visual or idea. In Alligator, there’s plenty to be disgusted by, but for me, the dead dogs being floated down a sewer were the closest I’ve come to being grossed out by a film in some time! Somewhere in […]
The Boogens (1981)
If an old man tells you to not open the old mine, you should just leave the old mine closed. No one tells you these sorts of things without a reason. After all, there could be turtle creatures lurking in there, ready to kill everyone. Our friends at Jensen Farley Productions took a break from In […]
