So, in 1993, Steven Spielberg would unleash the definitive dinosaur film (at least to this day) into the cinemas. A film that would set the standard for CG effects, a good portion of which are still effective to this day. Something everyone anticipated to be so big, Roger Corman funded a Jurassic Park knockoff that … Continue reading Why Jurassic Park is the Greatest Film of All Time

Closet Land (1991), and regarding interrogation films.
Rated: 2.5 / 5 Introduction So this is what I call an interrogation film. Films primarily about one, maybe two people trying to get information out of someone, and spending most of the film trying to do that. It's primarily courtroom dramas that are composed of this, with two lawyers (the prosecution and the defense) … Continue reading Closet Land (1991), and regarding interrogation films.

Color out of Space (2019) in 5 seconds
It's been a long time since I've done one of these. It's meant to be a joke, but you'll probably find it too disturbing to be funny. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTJ-9jsZQIU And just in case YouTube takes it down: https://www.bitchute.com/video/ArDvhhIJBjKY/
The Color out of Space (2019) review
Rated: 3 / 5 (maybe 3.5 if I was feeling generous) "West of Arkham the hills rise wild, and there are valleys with deep woods that no axe has ever cut. There are dark narrow glens where the trees slope fantastically, and where thin brooklets trickle without ever having caught the glint of sunlight. When … Continue reading The Color out of Space (2019) review
Godzilla vs. Destroyah (1995)
Rated: 4 / 5 "I've a feeling this is going to be Godzilla's last fight." -- Miki This is it folks. The final film in the Heisei era Godzilla films. And it's currently my favorite Godzilla film ever.

Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II (1993) and Godzilla vs. Spacegodzilla (1994) dual review
Rated: 3 / 5 Ok, so this film grew on me after previous viewings. This is one of the few emotionally charged Godzilla films out there, though you wouldn't know it until the last quarter of the movie. And yes, the emotional factor of baby Godzilla with adult Godzilla got to me a bit on … Continue reading Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II (1993) and Godzilla vs. Spacegodzilla (1994) dual review
Godzilla vs. Mothra (1992)
Rated: 2.5 / 5 So first it starts off as a rip off of the run out of the temple at the beginning of Raiders of the Lost Ark, then as a rip off of the bridge scene from Temple of Doom. I was expecting an invisible bridge to come up at some point, but … Continue reading Godzilla vs. Mothra (1992)
