Vegas Vacation

Mag Wheels '78 :thumbsup: (I went in expecting a light hearted 70's teen sexploitation like Malibu Beach, or vansploitation like The Van '77. And while it is both teen sexploitation, and vansploitation, it definitely had a dark edge to it.

From sexploitation director Bethel Buckalew responsible for such "classics" as Midnite Plowboy and The Pig Keeper's Daughter. And produced by custom car designer George Barris, who also makes a small appearance as himself.)

Go (1999) on DVD :thumbsup:

The film takes place over a 24-hour period surrounding three parties involved in a botched drug deal.

I watched Rambo III (1988 IVE Video version on VHS)

I could tell it was analog, because the Bill Medley version of "He Ain't Heavy, He's my Brother" during the end credits sounded nice and strong, not overly compressed, like on the Blu-Ray.

Alyce Kills '11 :thumbsup: (After accidentally knocking her best friend off a roof, Alyce is haunted by guilt and delves into a brutal nightmare wonderland of sex, drugs and violence, her mind tearing itself apart along with anyone else who gets in her way.)

He then gets a job at a toy making company and turns it into a success because he knows what kids want.


* Was the film debut of Debra Jo Rupp.

The Meateater '79 :thumbsup: (The film is bad, but extremely entertaining. A family reopens a movie theater and soon discover it's dark secrets as people are killed off.

From what I've read, the director ran out of money, and was then helped to finish the movie by the California Pork Board, which explains the hilariously obvious product placement plugs- one being the family singing the Oscar Mayer wiener song.

The director himself wrote a comment on IMDB saying that they supposedly made it bad on purpose and purposely hired the worst actors they could find. I have a feeling that's just the director trying to save face, then again other films he has made are actually good, including Purple Haze '82.)

Suspect Zero (2004) on DVD :thumbsdow

Beach Balls '88 :thumbsdow (Philip Paley, who played Cha-Ka on Land of The Lost in the 70's, plays the lead. This was his only film role, and seeing his performance in this it's understandable why he didn't make more.)

The Magnetic Video version?

http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTYwMFgxMjAw/z/l1EAAOxycmBSyk06/$_35.JPGYes you must have seen one of my messages elsewhere.. :)

Speaking of Magnetic Video, I would love to have the first release of Raging Bull. That was the only version of the film to keep the original United Artists logo. The Transamerica T flower (normally in blue) was specially colored in B&W to signify the fact that the movie was filmed that way. Same thing with Woody Allen's Stardust Memories.

Wishcraft (2002) on VHS :thumbsup:

A geeky high school senior receives a mysterious package one day in the mail. The item inside is a sacred totem, an ancient bull penis, with a note attached saying that the object will grant him three wishes.

* The film features brief appearances by Zelda Rubinstein and Michael Ray Bower (Donkey Lips from "Salute Your Shorts").

Meat Loaf plays the lead detective.

Night of the Iguana

Going Under (2004) on DVD :thumbsup:

A psychotherapist and his dominatrix develop a personal relationship during their sessions. She announces she is leaving "the business", but she wants to maintain a relationship w/ him "on the outside".

The relationship complicates their "real world" lives as the lines between fantasy and reality are crossed.

Just finished watching Pink Floyd The Wall (1983 MGM/UA Home Video version).

So great to hear that stereo analog sound. Nice and strong. Not weak and compressed, like digital is. I also noticed a lot of tape hiss, common in analog sound.

This was one of the first releases from MGM/UA Home Video, succeeding the former MGM/CBS and CBS Video labels. The early releases from those labels were cool-looking with the oversized boxes.

The way films are mastered to video have certainly changed. Back then, they would just take low quality copies, rather than the original camera negatives, or even anything close to that. Sometimes, you would even see a cue mark on the top-right corner of the screen, to signify the end of a reel.

Intruder '89 :thumbsup: (Unrated director's cut. The overnight stock crew of a local supermarket find themselves being stalked and slashed by a mysterious maniac.)

http://i1141.photobucket.com/albums/n599/smerdly/d6115c6a-e1be-46be-83a6-a46ee51b16fe_zpsa8f03622.jpg (http://s1141.photobucket.com/user/smerdly/media/d6115c6a-e1be-46be-83a6-a46ee51b16fe_zpsa8f03622.jpg.html)

Finally watched "Mr. Baseball" on VHS recently. It's a sweet movie, but there is a barrage of foul language in the movie, along with a number of locker room scenes that I didn't really care to see. (I'm sure some of the female viewers were titillated, of course though.)
I don't think I would ever watch it again, but it did spark an interest in Asian culture for me (well, I have an interest in all cultures in general), but for that night, I decided to continue with Japanese-themed depictions and so followed up with "Big Bird in Japan" (1989 Sesame Street special) and one of my favorite episodes of "Quantum Leap"- "The Americanization of Machiko".

Just finished watching Pink Floyd The Wall (1983 MGM/UA Home Video version).

So great to hear that stereo analog sound. Nice and strong. Not weak and compressed, like digital is. I also noticed a lot of tape hiss, common in analog sound.Hmmmm I dont notice any hiss on mine..... I wonder if ya got a bad copy buddy?? (Well you got it on BETA which is different than reg VHS maybe thats why)

Im glad ya enjoy it :)


I last watched REAL GENIUS (1985) on VHS :)

No, it was VHS. I don't have a Beta player. It was the original one, however (no mention of videophonic or even digital on the tape and box, just the fact that was dolby stereo and mono compatible). Maybe it was the VCR?

There was also no MGM/UA announcement at the end. Was there one on your copy?

That movie is based on a Jane Austen novel? Wow! Awesome!:) :cool: :lol:

No, it's a joke. The movie is as far from Jane Austen as you can get.

It parodies how films like The Godfather are known as "Mario Puzo's The Godfather".

Dead Alive (1992) on Blu-ray :thumbsup:
aka Braindead (Original Title)


I haven't seen this one in a while and I recently came across the Blu-ray.

Regarded as the film that inspired the more darker teen-comedies like Jawbreaker, Mean Girls and Juno.



* Winona Ryder has always expressed interest in a sequel and there was word in 2009 that the sequel was happening and that "everything looks great." Director Michael Lehmann have said that there were never any serious plans for a sequel.

There were also talks of a tv series (Fox in 2009, Bravo in 2012), but nothing ever materialized.

Now, 25 years later, the estranged friends are brought together for the show's DVD release. Yet as the reunion unfolds, the mystery they thought they solved begins to unravel.

Still no DVD/Blu Ray release. I think the only release the film has seen outside of festivals was it's airing on IFC. Too bad, it's a really good mystery.)

I never knew they made a movie about that disaster. I'd like to see it-I wonder if Netflix has it.

BYE BYE BIRDIE with Ann Margret, Dick van Dyke & Janet Leigh. It was on TCM on demand.

It was-on a score of 1 to 10, I'd give it a 6.

I never knew they made a movie about that disaster. I'd like to see it-I wonder if Netflix has it.

It is hard to find. I saw it on Ebay for $220.00! I got mine through a private seller on Ioffer.com for about $20.00.

I last saw THE LOST BOYS (1987) on VHS :)

Must have been an analog Cable TV broadcast, from either HBO, Cinemax, The Movie Channel, or Showtime.

Speaking of which, it also seems that commercial-free Cable TV broadcasts, and Network TV broadcasts from the 1970's and 1980's, are the best ways to find the original opening logos from movies that are nowhere else to be found. For example, here is a 1980 HBO airing of Rocky II, with the correct United Artists logo.

I last watched PINK FLOYD THE WALL - 1982 :)

EXCELLENT THING THEY MADE THAT CONTAINS ALMOST All the songs from thier record! (The wall)

If you watch the end credits, it says that there is a visual book version with lyrics from Avon Books.

I actually have read the book before, but I have never owned it, unfortunately The book features lyrics for the soon-to-be-cut-from-the-film Hey You, and photos of the scenes from the song (most of which were re-cut into Another Brick in the Wall Part 3). Roger Waters said that the reason he decided to cut Hey You, was because he felt it made the film too depressing.

However, there is no The Show Must Go On in the book, or the film. I'm guessing there never were plans to include it. But if it was included, it probably would have had the extra lyrics from the live versions (" Do I have to stand up, wild eyed in the spotlight...").

I last watched 9 to 5 - 1980 on VHS :)

The late Karen Black is also in this as well. I had known her from such films such as The Great Gatsby (1974) and Five Easy Pieces (1970). But I had no idea she was also a cult b-movie horror queen, until JamesG made an obituary thread on her last summer.

A sequel, World of the Dead: The Zombie Diaries, was released in 2011.

* Jamie Lee Curtis bashed the film in a 2007 IGN interview:

"That's a piece of **** movie. It's an unbelievably bad movie; just bad from the bottom. There's a scene where I'm running away from this alien and I actually hide under the stairs.

I come down some stairs and then duck up underneath them and I'm quivering and this big thing comes down the stairs and I'm freaking hiding under the stairs! This is something that can open walls of steel and I'm hiding under stairs!



It was maybe the only time I've known something was just bad and there was nothing I could do about it. I just do the best I can and there have been bad movies that have been wildly successful and great movies that have tanked, so you never know.

It was an independent precursor to all of these Marvel comics movies. I thought maybe that fan base would show up for it, but no."

I last watched THE GREAT ESCAPE (1963) on VHS :)

Voyage of Terror: The Achille Lauro Affair (1990) on VHS :thumbsup:

This was originally released as a 3-hour television miniseries, but they edited it into a 90-minute film for the VHS. It is not released on DVD so, as of now, this is the only official version available for home media.



Four armed members of the Palestine Liberation Front took over an Italian cruise line, Achille Lauro, on October 7, 1985 when it docked in Egypt. The purpose was to demand the release of fifty Palestinian prisoners being held in Israel.

The production was filmed on the actual Achille Lauro ship and the hostages were heavily involved with the making of it as they told the cast/crew what happened during the crisis.



Burt Lancaster plays the only casualty of the hijacking, a retired, wheel-chair bound elderly man, who was shot and then thrown overboard.

It also featured the final role of murdered actress Rebecca Schaeffer, released posthumously after her death in 1989.

EXCELLENT MOVIE!!

Factoid: On the original home video prints, it began with a United Artists logo, followed by the original Warner Bros. Pictures logo that started the picture. This is because at the time, United Artists Corporation had the rights to the pre-1950's catalog of Warner Bros. Pictures.

Yup thats what I see on my CBS/FOX copy (1984)
