Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)
So I finally figured out why this movie is called Wonder Woman 1984. That’s because it takes its inspiration from the pre-Marvel Cinematic Universe superhero movies that are adaptions of the comics in name only. I’m looking at you, Supergirl, which came out in 1984*. Yes, before superhero movies took over the world, we got movies like Superman […]
Cocaine: One Man’s Seduction (1983)
Man, if I love one thing, it’s movies where Dennis Weaver fights with his son over college and life choices.

It’s based on Velda Johnson’s novel of the same name. I’ve often said, when it comes to horror movies, that no one should ever […]
Killjoy (1981)

Either way, it’s a very early role for Kim Basinger, who plays Laury Medford, a woman caught between two men, pursued by a driven older detective (Robert Culp) and way more than she appears. Dr. Max Heller (Stephen Macht, The Monster Squad) and […]
Desperate for Love (1989)
Based on a true story? You know it. Alex Cutler (Brian Bloom, who would goon to write Call of Duty: Modern Warfare) and Cliff Petrie (Christian Slater, who would go on to skateboard, be a pirate DJ and blow up a high school) have been friends since, well, forever, but darn it if cheerleader Lily Becker […]
