This is a Japanese poster for an Italian film, Uomini e Squali (Men and Sharks). I think it's a documentary, so I'm pretty sure this is a somewhat deceptive poster. You can't argue it isn't a more effective ad, though. I wonder how ripped off people felt after they starting watching it though. But…

  After the third movie, the Daimajin series was flailing around for a new direction. However, the fourth film, which attempted to cash in on the recent massive success of Saturday Night Fever, effectively killed the series.

I know I've covered ol' Tartu here before, but this is in honor of buying (if not yet receiving) my copy of the amazing-looking He Came from the Swamp Blu Ray set from Arrow Video. It covers seven of Grefe's films, which isn't (sadly) all of them, but a good hunk. The most noticable…

Black gloves and caterpillars?!  Brrrrrrrrrrrrr! Also, in case you're wondering, that's castor oil. So it is pretty gross.

I know it probably seems like I natter on about my anime addition endlessly, but actually for my part I've really tried to tread lightly on that subject. However, Netflix just added the superlative Demon Slayer series to it's roster. (C'mon, you can't watch Cuties all the time.)  It's also on Hulu, so I…

It's been a long time since I saw a trailer for an American film that really excited me. Yesterday they dropped the first full trailer for Godzilla vs Kong and I have to admit, it looks pretty great. (Just keep it under two hours at the longest, please.) The trailer is posted all over…
