VHS : Red Dawn
You have to admit, it's a great premise. What would America look like and do if war was conducted on our own soil instead of across an ocean? But instead of going the conventional way of showing you anything and everything about it, director John Milius decided to give this depressing scenario a view from a bunch of high school kids. We don't even know the full extent of the attack until the middle of the movie. Interesting concept sure, but what looks good on paper almost never works when fully attempted.

First off, with the exception of a young Charlie Sheen, the acting is bad... as in pathetic. Patrick Swayze is a guy you wouldn't expect this from, but he's one of the worst offenders. Then there's the plausibility of the Wolverine story. Sure, it's possible that a band of high ... Read More

VHS : Conan the Barbarian
I have always been a big fan of Robert E. Howard's Conan series (I have them all), and have had a VCR copy of "Conan the Barbarian" since first seeing it in the theatres in 1982. I was disappointed in the only attempted "sequel" ( "Conan the Destroyer"), and have always been even more disappointed that other attempts haven't been made to tell more of Howard's imaginative Conan series....especially in the age of CGI movies, which would seem to create endless possibilities in translating more of the Conan saga to the big screen. When I first saw the original "Conan" in 1982, I thought that there must have been a lot of film that wound up on the editing room floor: the movie clearly had a rich atmosphere, and Arnold was and always will be the perfect embodiment of Howard's fictional hero- but the movie also had a very ...

5.Big Wednesday starring: Jan-Michael Vincent, William Katt, Gary Busey, Patti D'Arbanville, Lee Purcell

VHS : Big Wednesday
Nostalgia aside, you gotta admit: it was a '70s ultra-cheese fest, starring future burn-outs Jan-Michael Vincent and Gary Busey, and William Katt, who would go on to star in one of the most lame TV shows of all time "The Greatest American Zero".

VHS : Dillinger
Dillinger, made back in 1973 here, is the Best dang Warren Oates movie of all time. Bless his heart, Oates never got the recognition he so deserved. "Dillinger"...a true, fast-paced superb depiction of infamous John Dillinger & his Gang. Do purchase.
