Soundtrack English; Soundtrack French; English Subtitles; DVD Included Dutch director Paul Verhoeven (TOTAL RECALL, ROBOCOP) mixes big budget bug bashing with twisted satire of old Hollywood movies in this adaptation of Robert Heinlein's classic sci-fi novel. It's the future, Earth is at war, and the kids are all going off to fight giant killer bugs on the remote planet of Klendathu. Casper Van Diem, Denise Richards, Dina Meyer, and Patrick Muldoon play some of the blandly attractive young recruits who engage in soap-opera style love triangles as they toughen up and learn to fight (and die) like soldiers. Michael Ironside is their gung-ho, one-armed leader. The real stars though, are the superbly animated bugs. Packed to the rafters with jaw-dropping special effects and insane violence, the film managed to be a box office hit though it undoubtedly left some audiences confused at Verhoeven's slyly deadpan humor. By the time Neil Patrick Harris (TV's Doogie Howser) starts marching around in a Gestapo-style uniform, for example, it will be apparent this isn't STAR WARS. What it is however, is a rousing experience for mature viewers in the properly ironic frame of mind. Starship Troopers Quotes/Excerpts: "Would you like to know more?"--a slogan that appears frequently in newreel clips
"Violence has resolved more conflicts than anything else. The contrary opinion that violence doesn't solve anything is mearly wishful thinking at its worst!"--Rasczak (Michael Ironside) to his students
"Everyone fights, no one quits. If you don't do your job, I'll shoot you myself."--Rasczak to his troops
"You see a bug hole, you nuke it!"--Rasczak to his troops
"M.I. does the dying. Fleet just does the flying."--Rico (Casper Van Dien) referring to the downside of being in the mobile infantry Starship Troopers Reviews: "...The film's main events are its wild bugfights, with hordes of extraordinarily dynamic special-effects creatures....These bizarre marauders are really something to see..."
-- Janet Maslin, New York Times "...Entertaining, engaging, exciting....With game, energetic, winsome performances...and effects that live up to the hype..."
-- Christine James, Box Office "...Fascinating....Featuring astonishing effects and some of the most harrowing battle scenes in movie history..."
-- Andrew O'Hehir, Sight and Sound "...Director Paul Verhoeven is back in his subversively nimble ROBOCOP groove with the uproariously cheeky STARSHIP TROOPERS" -- 4 out of 4 stars
-- Mike Clark, USA Today "...A letter grade would do a disservice to a movie that sees relentless entertainment and brilliant pop-culture fraud as two sides of the same media coin....The Most Ironic Hollywood Blockbuster Ever Made. See it for yourself and decide..."

Starship Troopers Movie Review  Bloody fun!
Okay, I know...the science was AWFUL. So call it "fiction", not "science fiction". But consider that the movie was not trying to be scientifically accurate. It was trying to be a good action flick...and it succeeded royally! And if coed showers are in the future, sign me up! By the way, the book was AWESOME. The movie only maintained 2 or 3 major points from the book (asteroid attacks, service required for citizenship, etc). But the rest was creative license. The soldiers in the book wore battle armor with automated weapons attached at the shoulders. There were more species of aliens than just bugs. Still, the movie held it's own as an in your face (and VERY gory) action flick. A must-have for the the "guy" collection.

AWESOME SCI-FI
ABSOLUTELY ONE OF THE BEST SCI-FI IF NOT THE BEST SCI-FI MOVIE OF THE 90'S. VAN DIEN AND THE REST OF THE CAST WERE EXCELLENT. I AGREE WITH ANOTHER REVIEWER HERE THAT THE MOVIE SHOULD HAVE HAD A LITTLE MORE NUDITY BUT HEY THIS MOVIE ROCKED ANYWAY. NOT TO BE MISSED. IF YOU ARE A FAN OF SCIENCE FICTION THIS MOVIE NEEDS AND HAS TO BE IN YOUR COLLECTION. ENJOY.

A group of none-too-bright fraternity jocks packs it up and heads out into the grand American wilderness. Once there, they fool with Mother Nature in the worst way when they stumble across the eggs of a rare, vicious (and GIANT) crocodile. Soon, the killer croc is on a bloody rampage of carnage and destruction, and it's up to the locals, led by the sheriff, to stop the bustling beasty. Big animal horror from genre master Hooper, who covered similar evil amphibian territory in EATEN ALIVE.

| | Book Of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 DVD (2000) Widescreen; With CD
Starship Troopers review
$7.09 
BOOK OF SHADOWS: BLAIR WITCH 2 is the sequel to the 1999 thriller THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT. The first film's famously effective horror was created in large part with its faux authenticity. Shot on handheld video, the film presented itself as the genuine footage of three students' fatal search for the mysterious Blair Witch. BOOK OF SHADOWS: BLAIR WITCH 2, which purports to be a "fictional reenactment of real events," complicates the original's illusion of reality. Tourists have flocked to Burkittsville, Maryland to see evidence of the original film and its underlying mythology. Four of these visitors--Tristan and Stephan, a couple researching a book; Erica, a Wiccan; and Kim, a Goth--join up with town troublemaker Jeff for his inaugural Blair Witch Hunt tour. When they wake up after a night of partying, most of their possessions have been destroyed and they are unable to account for a ...

Starship Troopers DVD
$7.95 
In the midst of a 1962 pleasure cruise, the passengers and crew of Italian luxury liner the Antonia Graza are systematically slaughtered and left in pieces by a gang of terrorists. Forty years later, the ship is spotted drifting in the Bering sea. Fresh off a six-month journey, an Alaska-based seafaring salvage team lead by Murphy (Gabriel Byrne) and Epps (Julianna Margulies) are approached by a Canadian weather spotter (Desmond Harrington) who noticed the derelict vessel on a flyover. Tempted by the possibility of untold riches, the crew takes on the job of tracking down the ship. Once aboard though, strange things start to happen, beginning with Epps's sighting of the ghost of a little girl. After the team finds a cache of gold, all hell breaks loose, and the angry ghosts make themselves known--and begin destroying the intruders one by one.
Purely and simply a floating haunted house tale, GHOST SHIP is a creepy thrill ride that compensates for its lack of originality with some creepy art direction and a number of very grisly special effects. Director Steve Beck (13 GHOSTS) keeps things appropriately dark, and coaxes suitably world-weary performances from ...

Starship Troopers movie DVD

The Dominican Republic has beautiful beaches, beautiful people, and a little something called "Sanky Panky," which female tourists might want to stay away from. In this musical comedy starring the charismatic Fausto Mata, his attempts at getting foreign woman to fall in love with him in order to procure a visa to the United States have hilarious results. A huge hit in both the Dominican Republic and the Dominican communities abroad, SANKY PANKY is a humorous look at the little-known phenomena of seducing travelers for personal gain. Popular Dominican music, such as Big Family and Aventura, accompany many of Mata's ridiculous exploits in his quest for a little "Sanky Panky."
This DVD/CD set includes the film directed by Jose 'Pinky' Pintor featuring stellar performance by Dominican comedians-extraordinaire Fausto Mata, Tony Pascual, and Aquiles Correa. A Sanky Panky is a gigolo who hangs out at vacation spots with the ...
