Masters of Horror: Joe Dante - Homecoming [DVD]

Customer Rating

A Few Good Dead Men.

on May 1, 2016

Posted by: Tigon

from California

A great horror satire reflective of America of the wars of Vietnam and 2000, a presidential hopeful tries for re-election during an unpopular war for its continuity only to face dead soldiers rising from the grave set to elect anyone else to end the war. Insightful, low-budget, smart, honorific, and yet lack in scares over comedy and politics- well worth more than one viewing.

The Oranges [DVD] [2011]

Customer Rating

Bland Orange.

on May 1, 2016

Posted by: Tigon

from California

An unrealistic, dry, and unbelievable story that tries to lighten itself up as a comedy but could pass mostly for a tame, scandal oriented cable based drama on a tryst between a patriarch and his neighbor friends' twenty year old daughter. Catherine Keener is great, while most actors and sub-plots are pointless in chatter. The ending is modest, but this is a movie you could watch once if the pacing wasn't so dull. Rent it.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Iron Man 2 [DVD] [2010]

Customer Rating

Iron Man 2 is a bit rusty.

on March 11, 2016

Posted by: Tigon

from California

Saw the movie in theatres, bought it 2010, pawned it by 2013.
Iron Man/ Tony Stark reveals his identity publically to get some retributions on his actions by the government set to make a weapon of his technology. Sam Rockwell's Justin Hammer becomes a business level threat to Tony, Mickey Rourke's Whiplash sets to eliminate Tony for past revenges against his family. Too much talk and little action to a limp story. The Disneyland joke implemented at the moment of Marvel Comics buy up from Disney is clever, but the movie never holds weight as the first one. No real threat, minor conspiracy tale, and with a few good action scenes- there's little to impress until you've sold it off in another few years.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

'Clerks' Toon up.

on March 6, 2016

from California

If your a fan of the 1994 movie 'Clerks', this cartoon is a far cry from it with the exception that the original movie actors are tied with the 6 episode stint of this cartoon released in 2000. Dante, Randall, Jay and Silent Bob do plenty of lowbrow jokes, Star Wars references and dark humor that could pass for Family Guy, South Park or any other lowbrow cartoon of the day Some celebrity voices, old style humor, yet the series is outdated. Video stores? Fans of 'Clerks' could give it a shot. Animation tests, commentary, commercials, 2-disc partials, closed captions, and DVD rom compatible.

Batman [CD]

Customer Rating

Dark Knight Beats.

on March 4, 2016

Posted by: Tigon

from California

Prince cuts plenty of funk, techno, rock and synthesizers with tracks of the Batman movie of 1989 in an electrifying twist of 80's and early 90's grooves and hooks that gels well to Prince's earlier works. 'Electric Chair' is somber, the remainder is stand-out dance music but its both 'Party Man' and 'Bat Dance' that will stick out the best. Some of the music is repetitious but its a sound from Prince that can't be duplicated. Batman fans and Prince fans need to pick this up.

Beat Em Up [CD]

Sweet Beat Um Up

on December 1, 2015

from California

Probably the best rock album out of 2001. Not since Nirvana has an album been fun, cool, hardcore, and without apology to hit the music scene with no radio acknowledgement. Iggy Pop fans take heed and get this album.

Blah-Blah-Blah [CD]

Customer Rating

Pop Rocks.

on November 30, 2015

Posted by: Tigon

from California

Iggy Pop, who has been the forefront of punk in the 70's, correlates with David Bowie to this 1987 New Wave rock album with its radio safe 'Real Wild Child' sets up 80's rock with such gems as 'Shades', 'Fire Girl', ' Cry for Love' and 'Isolation' just as well with a cheesy sense of innovation that can appeal any 80's music fan or rock fan of Iggy Pop alone. A more savvier follow up of 'The Idiot', but not to be compared to Iggy's more harder albums- still a prominent album. The influential ballads underpinned by David Bowie are unmistakable.

Light Sleeper [DVD] [1992]

Paul Schrader's moody drama Light Sleeper comes to DVD with a standard full-frame transfer. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Stereo. There are neither subtitles nor closed-captions on this release. There are no supplemental materials of any consequence. This is a disappointingly thin disc from Artisan. Schrader's film deserves better than this.

Sleeper Strike

on November 11, 2015

Posted by: Tigon

from California

A crime drama of rehabilitation and reforming oneself, Williem Dafoe plays recovering addict then dealer John Letour set to leave the dealer life in New York. Susan Sarandon also owns her role as Letour's friend and distributor, but a murder mystery involving an old girlfriend- Dana Delaney- leads the law to his direction as he sets for the true killers. Slow-paced, unique, but a familiar ground from the screenwriter of 'Taxi Driver'.

Elastica [CD]

Customer Rating

Elastica: Brit pop stretch.

on October 1, 2015

Posted by: Tigon

from California

Not a bad album, but not amazing. Elastica had a hit with 'Connection' in the mid-nineties before being accused of ripping off the alternate rock group Wire from the '80's. Softer than the band Garbage, but blunter in sound than any frilly Spice Girls album. Hot band of its time, but I wouldn't pay over $8 on this. Cuts its teeth into electric grunge alt. rock fairly.

Best Of [CD]

Customer Rating

Cardigans: Best of the Best.

on May 30, 2015

Posted by: Tigon

from California

For the woman in heart, or the girlfriend in mind- The Cardigans made their mark with 'Lovefool' in the 1990's but don't write them off as one-hit wonders. This album of 46 songs well fits its value, pop-jazz-bluesy tunes to the indie scene. No obscenities, the smooth vocals of Nia Persson purrs off this album. This is not empty pop music, this is a band apart to its own brand.
