1.Chorus Line starring: Michael Douglas, Terrence Mann, Michael Blevins, Yamil Borges, Jan Gan Boyd
directed by: Richard Attenborough
November 03, 1998
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

VHS : Chorus Line
A Chorus Line allows us to watch as a director (Michael Douglas) selects the men and women he wants in the chorus of a play he will direct. He asks the people who have come to try out to tell him something about themselves, since members of the chorus will have bit parts in the play. Among those trying out are a married couple, a woman who has acted for the Douglas character before, a young man involved in gay theater without his family's knowledge, and one of the great loves of the director's life.

While it's difficult to imagine an actual try-out being conducted along these lines, it does offer an opportunity for the audience to get to know the often-anonymous chorus and for each of the chorus members to have a moment (or more) to shine.

2.Scissors starring: Sharon Stone, Steve Railsback, Ronny Cox, Michelle Phillips, Vicki Frederick
directed by: Frank De Felitta

VHS : Scissors
Often in film when the main character has a troubled, painful past she is either portrayed as an "unattractive" cat lover or a raving psychotic man-hater--or both. This (thankfully) is not the case in the surprisingly sympathetic "Scissors."

While the plot is certainly not that original, the characterization just reached out and grabbed me. Sharon Stone, a victim of her own beauty since she seems to be valued more for her looks than her talent, is perfectly suited for the role she takes on here as a 26-year-old virgin desperate to feel normal and be happy.

I can definitely see why people might pan this film. On the surface, it is a pale imitation of one of Brian DePalma's better films ("Dressed to Kill," "Sisters"). Being a firm believer that everyone ... Read More

VHS : Virgin Witch
Yeah, there's this coven of witches, and a couple of cute girls are being lured into it, but that doesn't prevent this film from being only so-so at best. One of the girls becomes the plaything of the head female witch, but any potential eroticism is wasted as they never actually do anything together. Aside from a couple of brief moments when the girls are without their clothes, this film was just plain boring.
