1.Escape to Athena starring: Roger Moore, Telly Savalas, David Niven, Claudia Cardinale, Stefanie Powers directed by: George P. Cosmatos May 19, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $3.24
I hadn't seen this movie in more than 20 years. It was one of my favorites back then. I'm so glad I got it through Amazon. Unfortunately, they only had it on VHS. But I don't mind, this is one of the best movies on nazi war affairs. A rare combination of funny stuff with more serious war related matters. It kind of reminds me of MASH, but much better. Telly Savalas and Roger Moore are great. It definitely brought back good memories from my youth.

2.Hairspray starring: Sonny Bono, Ruth Brown, Josh Charles, Divine, Jason Downs July 01, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $1.00
this is a fantastic movie. it's campy and fun and very positive. this movie is a well known and much loved classic. it's entertaining for adults and appropriate for kids (if you're familiar with john waters and have some reservations) my preteen daughter showed it to her friends at her birthday party, and all the girls got up to try out the dances and giggled their heads off. how anyone could even think of comparing it to the travolta crap is beyond me, let alone like the other one better. this is the movie that started the whole thing. the broadway play was ripped off from this movie, and that other version is ripped off from the broadway play. this version is better in every respect. better cast, better writing, better costumes, better music. ricki lake is awesome.

5.Troll starring: Charles Band, James Beck (II), Jenny Beck, Sonny Bono, Jesse Carfora January 01, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $4.99
Torok the Troll King wants to dominate the world and bring his dark kingdom forth by starting at an apartment where a former Witch bride turned nemesis, now resides. With his Magical ring, he takes the form of a little girl named Wendy Potter, who just came to live there with her family, and was placed into suspended animation. He thereby goes about causing mischief among the residents of the rooms: There's swinging playboy with the likely name of "Peter Dickinson" {played by Sonny Bono}, a fanatical Vet, diminuative Professor Malcolm Mallory {who gets a second chance at life, thanks to Torok}, a college student couple, and of course, Harry Potter Jr. and Sr. {much before J.K. Rowling's series, perhaps whence she lifted the name}. One by one, they are each engulfed into a pod which ... Read More

6.The John Waters Archives (Pink Flamingos/Polyester/Desperate Living/Hairspray) starring: Sonny Bono, Ruth Brown, Divine, David Lochary, Mary Vivian Pearce directed by: John Waters July 01, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $23.93
I bought this before the advent of DVDs, and I love every disgusting minute of it. Well, maybe not the birthday party scene in Pink Flamingos, but the rest of it is nothing short of brilliant. This is truly independent cinema. The kind you make with money borrowed from your parents, not from some studio that thinks they're on the edge. You will be offended by these films. Even Hairspray has it's edgy moments. Disgusting zit popping, puking, rats crawling through beautiful reflections of the moon in water. Polyester is Water's first near main-stream movie, with abortion, porn, foot fetishists, beheadings (the scene where a cop non-challantly throws a head into the woods after a car accident kills me). Desperate Living is a grand take on Fairy Tales gone wrong, sort of like Shrek on an adult ... Read More

7.Waco: The Rules of Engagement starring: Dan Gifford, Clive Doyle, Jack Harwell, Dick J. Reavis, James D. Tabor directed by: William Gazecki October 15, 2002

Please allow me to share my frank reaction and some random thoughts after viewing this film. The Waco/Branch Davidian matter has already became old news. I went into a viewing of this with entertainment in mind, expecting a revelation on the order of "there are Martian corpses at Area 51", or "9-11 was planned by George W Bush". What I came away with is the disgusting feeling that the federal government has committed a big crime, covered it up, and corporate media are a willing accomplice. BTW - the "Davidian" aspect of this group's name takes root in the King David of the Old Testament, NOT in personality David Koresh. I have heretofore always believed, as I had been taught via TV, that the Branch Davidians were an anti-government, religious cultic sect, and that David ... Read More
