- DirectorPaul SchraderStarsMichael J. FoxGena RowlandsJoan JettA pair of siblings must choose whether to pursue their dream of touring with their rock band or support their family and stay in Cleveland, Ohio.I'm still surprised this Paul Schrader scripted/directed gem starring Michael J. Fox and Joan Jett isn't on DVD or Blu-ray yet. Must be something to do with the music rights. Anyways, Light of Day is a fine little film that takes a look at the life of some working-class folks trying to get by on family and music. Jett is terrific, and the titular song was written by Bruce Springsteen, and Jett still performs it live with the Blackhearts.
- DirectorAlbert PyunStarsJohn StockwellMichael DudikoffMichele LittleAfter a nuclear war, Phillip Hammer and Marlowe Chandler have spent fifteen years on their own in a bunker, stuffed with junk from the 40s and old detective novels. Now, nineteen-years-old, they leave their shelter to find a world full of mutants, freaks, and cannibals. They become famous detectives in the struggle for the two keys that could fire the last nuclear weapon.Have yet to watch this, but it looks bizarre and awesome. Two guys come out of a nuclear shelter having read only old detective novels? Super!
- DirectorDavid IrvingStarsBrian RobbinsBill CalvertTricia Leigh FisherA military experiment to create a race of super-warriors go awry, and legions of murderous zombies are unleased upon a surburan neighborhood.I've yet to watch this sequel to the masterful trash that is the original C.H.U.D., but everything I've read has led me to believe it's lesser in every way.
- DirectorHal SutherlandStarsEdward AsnerTom BosleyLana BeesonPinocchio and his friends, a glow worm and a marionette, search for a magic music box. However, so is the evil Scalawag and the Emperor of the Night.This just looks terrifying. I can't imagine showing this to a child unless I was intending to scare them for life.
- DirectorFumihiko TakayamaJohn DanylkiwStarsAileen QuinnLorne GreeneMari OkamotoAnimated version of the classic story of a young farmgirl who is transported to the magic land of Oz.This 1982 anime of The Wizard of Oz is light and fun, if nothing spectacular. The voice cast is pretty uninspired, but the film has it's moments.
- StarsBill BellamyPat BenatarStewart CopelandA collection of promos and station ID's from MTV's early years and the original Joe's Apartment short film.Vintage MTV commercials and shorts? I'm there!
- DirectorGeorge MihalkaStarsDavid WarnerMichael IronsideKate VernonA man takes three co-workers hostage while working overtime on Thanksgiving weekend. He has no demands.This looks lame, and I've yet to see it.
- DirectorBurt KennedyStarsStacy KeachSusan TyrrellTisha SterlingHaunted by visions from his abusive childhood, Montana deputy sheriff Lou Ford gradually exhibits the signs of a homicidal schizophrenic.I loooove Michael Winterbottom's 2010 version starring Casey Affleck. THough this version is technically available on DVD, it's OOP and looks like a very generic dollar-store disc. It's even full-frame, and I'm willing to best the picture quality is barely any better than my VHS copy.
