Category Horror DVDs, Military Movies, Black Comedy Videos, Period Piece
Starring Guy Pearce, Robert Carlyle, Neal McDonough, Jeffrey Jones, David Arquette, Jeremy Davies, Stephen Spinella
Director Antonia Bird
Composer Michael Nyman, Damon Albarn
Director of Photography Anthony Richmond
Screenwriter Ted Griffin

A cowardly soldier (Pearce) is stationed at an isolated military outpost with a bunch of misfits in Sierra Nevada following the Mexican-American War in 1847. When a dazed survivor (Carlyle) of an unfortunate expedition shows up at the outpost, it isn't long before he reveals himself to be a murderous madman with a taste for human flesh. An offbeat, blackly comic and extremely bloody effort from English director Bird (PRIEST).

4 stars A Classic Dark Movie
Part time Comedy part time drama. This movie is an unsung classic. Guy Pierce and Robert Carslyle are great. The whole scene in the tent when the Knox's screams "He Licked me!!!" is a classic. A must have if you are Guy Pierce fan.

DVD $10.25  4 stars Top 100
Jubal Troop (Glenn Ford) is an honest, well-intentioned cowhand who has come into town looking for work. When he is injured in a riding accident, rancher Shep Horgan (Ernest Borgnine) offers him a job tending horses, but before long trouble is brewing and Morgan's coquettish wife, Mae (Valerie French) falls for Jubal. The dubious cowhand Pinky (Rod Steiger) won't stand for Jubal stealing Mae's attention away from him. He slyly convinces Shep that the well-behaved Jubal is sleeping with Mae and sends the whole Horgan ranch into an uproar. In spite of its heavy storyline, JUBAL is actually quite a funny film. The pairing of Glenn and Borgnine makes for several amusing scenes. The plot gradually morphs from psychodrama to black comedy to comedy (similar to films like THE SWIMMER and WILD THINGS) evoking mirth and laughter, fear and loathing. Director Delmer Daves welds all of the unsuspecting chaos together, making JUBAL a non-traditional but very memorable Western. A jealous ranch hand stirs up trouble when his ex-lover, the boss' amoral wife, makes unwanted advances to the new foreman. Glenn Ford, Ernest Borgnine, and Rod Steiger star.

DVD $10.29  4.5 stars Top 100
Picking up where NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD left off, and still offering no explanation of why the dead are walking the earth, DAWN OF THE DEAD plunges headlong into one of the most violent and original horror films ever made. After securing an apartment building overcome with flesh-eating zombies, two Philadelphia area SWAT team members, Peter (Ken Foree) and Roger (Scott Reiniger), flee to a television station, where they escape in the station's helicopter with Francine (Gaylen Ross) and Stephen (David Emge), two station employees. Seeking refuge from the zombies and the ensuing hysteria, they land on top of a Pittsburgh area shopping mall, despite the fact that the undead seem to be flocking there. What begins as a stop for supplies becomes a longer stay as the four become embroiled in a futile war within the mall to keep their flesh to themselves and remain alive. The film's relentlessly disturbing and innovative gore effects are one reason to see DAWN OF THE DEAD, but those who can stomach the endless barrage of blood and gnarled zombie faces will be rewarded--and possibly surprised--by what the film says about human nature and life within a consumer-based culture. Any aficionado of horror is likely to place the film high on their list of revered cinema. The original 1968 horror film from director George A. Romero in an all-new hi-def Divimax transfer with new bonus features, including audio commentary with director Romero and Special Effects creator Tom Savini,.
