Every year we seem to look at the horror genre and have something to complain about. Mostly it seems that the move towards PG-13 and its bigger audience weakens the impact the films have and lessens the actual horror factor. I’d rather look to the past to fill in some holes in my horror knowledge and forget all those worries. This is why I tend to review a lot of the classic horrors that are released, this week one being The Last Horror Film (aka Fanatic).
The Last Horror Film is the story of Vinny (Joe Spinell) a New York taxi driver with an obsession with actress Jana Bates (Caroline Munro). Following her...

Sandy Dennis tries to overcome her loneliness in That Cold Day in the Park.
Sandy Dennis (Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?) stars as a wealthy and mentally disturbed spinster who goes to extraordinary lengths to assuage her loneliness in the 1969 drama That Cold Day In The Park, a seldom-screened film directed by Robert Altman (3 Women) that is now seeing its first-ever release on DVD and Blu-ray.
On a cold, rainy Vancouver day, Frances (Dennis) encounters a shivering blond youth (Michael Burns) sitting alone on a park bench.

Frances eventually attempts to seduce him and the boy soon...

Cyrus: Instant Cult Classic - Ray Schillaci
Run to the theaters before this gem is lost in the summer shuffle. “Cyrus” is the best comedy of the year. It may be the best comedy of this decade, because we have not seen anything like it since the outrageousness of such underground subversive classics as “Harold and Maude” and “Where’s Poppa?” Now mind you, I know those movies are not for every taste, but my lord what a breath of fresh air “Cyrus” is. Both uncomfortable and downright hilarious at the same time, “Cyrus” soars to the heights of cult classic with the combination of talents; its three stars John C Reilly, Jonah Hill, Marisa Tomei and writers/directors Mark and Jay Duplass.
