Joe Garcia III

Mostly, the story of a twisted love triangle between a band manager, a young dancer and a successful talent agent.

Not to be confused with The Boris Karloff Collection this Boris Karloff Collection is highly forgettable overall.

A ’70s cowboy movie with a good country soundtrack that doesn’t get overly sappy or corny in telling its tale.

Chariots of the Gods isn’t as kooky as one would think

You Talkin’ To Me is a great resource of many of Hollywood’s most memorable lines.

The Luis Valdez classic gets the full Criterion treatment.

Entertaining overall and provides a lively and intriguing look at what those legendary, sometimes deadly Hollywood parties of the 1920s may have been like.

Another silly excuse for Elvis to sing some songs, kiss a few girls and win that race.

A watchable teenage soap opera about love, choices, and consequences, loaded with great music.

Dubbing debacle aside, A Taste of Blood was easy to stomach.

I laughed and said “WTF?” many times

I was indeed amused for a bit and I’m just saying, Bigfoot, you deserve better, buddy.

Wes Craven’s Swamp Thing is a delightful beauty and the (bayou) beast tale filled with comic book action and is mostly kid friendly, at least it was for us 80s kids.

I simply expected more from Willie B and the Gent

Cimarron (1931) is melodramatic, slow in places, and a product of its time, both cinematically and in its politically incorrectness, but an enjoyable 124 minutes overall.

I let critical (over) thinking go and enjoyed the rest of this loony 91-minute-long ride.

Children of the Corn remains both fascinating and disturbing as it spins its terrible tale of a town overcome by frenzied youth

I’d say catch this Cage outing on cable or streaming somewhere for free.

Trapped Alive misses the mark by trying to be and do too much while somehow doing nearly nothing at all.

The Loveless opens like The Wild One, postures like Scorpio Rising and speaks like Brando’s Johnny while lacking the action of both but that’s okay as it all jibes together well

Hinges creak, shadows creep, candles flicker, and danger lurks in shadowy places throughout this instant horror classic.

Wild in the Country isn’t actually that thrilling but it is a damn good Elvis picture.

It isn’t terrible but I wasn’t afraid of The Dark.

The score is pretty good as well but Linnea is tops, or topless rather. Twice!

The truth is out there, in book and documentary film form.

An enjoyable movie with some solid kills, lots of creepy scenes, and some well-rounded nudity. Hubba hubba.

Edward D. Wood, Jr. would be proud.

It plays like an odd comic book mashup of Weekend At Bernie’s, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and an 8-bit Nintendo action/adventure game.

Walk Proud isn’t a bad movie, it just isn’t very good either.

A great “modern” take on the classic gothic vampire genre.

McGee puts us in the driver’s seat and behind the camera using first-hand sources and candid photos to illustrate how some gags were accomplished and how it felt to be watching it all go down for film’s sake.

Batman: The Long Halloween is a fine film noir-esque tale that sees Gotham transition from a city ruled by gangsters to one ruled by “freaks.”

One can clearly see how it was a major influence for 1988’s Heathers.

“Use an electric shaver.”

An enjoyable period piece that’s entertaining for its full 104 minutes.

Not as good as The Guns of Navarone but a fun way to spend just over two hours nonetheless.

Cagney plays Chaney well, in his own unique way.

Wild Rovers, a forgotten gem of a western with some solid action, although a bit somber at times but so is Lonesome Dove.

Visually stunning and sexually edgy, the movie has its moments of horror and also its unintentional moments of laughter.

Taza, Son of Cochise is 79 minutes of fast-paced western action.

The Frisco Kid is a good, wacky western and an enjoyable way to spend 119 minutes.

An interesting and fascinating read that explores themes of spirituality that may be found throughout Disney films.

Julian David Stone brings to life the world of 1930s Hollywood as it lumbers out of the silent era and into the universe of sound.

A history-filled, memory-packed box set for music fans to treasure for many years.

The pairing of two early flicks from legendary director Stanley Kubrick makes for great viewing pleasure.

A good set for anyone interested in B westerns, sci-fi, and classic spooky fun from the 1930s.

An entertaining film about the behind-the-camera life.

Director and star Mel Gibson delivers a fine performance in both roles telling the story of William Wallace.

Both movies are entertaining and well done.

From start to finish True Grit is much like the Duke’s own life: exciting, straightforward, and filled with humor.
