Sharky’s Machine (1981)
Man, when I was a kid, the only movie that I think HBO had — besides The Car — seemed to be Sharky’s Machine. I never watched it back then and I totally should have, because it would have changed my life. Based on the book by William Diehl, which was sent to the film’s director and […]
Of Unknown Origin (1983)

In the book The Raven, […]
Lillith (2019)
Lilith — called Lillith in this movie — may have gotten a friendly makeover of sorts in the 90s, but there’s such a dividing line in the thought as to who she is. Is she Adam’s first wife, created at the same time and from the same clay? Did she leave Adam after she refused […]
