We'll see if the niece wants to make it to a third movie (after a dinner break), and if she does, what she makes of this. Frankly, if she bails and I can get her back home in time--it's a bit of a hike--I'll probably instead try to make that evening's showing of Sound!…

The G-Fest film I'm really excited about, of course, is Ghidorah the Three Headed Monster. (Ghidrah, back in my day.)

Looking for a Prime (get it?) hunk of cheese to watch this weekend. How about Terror on London Bridge. Remember when they bought the London Bridge and moved it to Arizona? Of course, the first thing EVERYBODY thought was "Let's make a movie where the soul of Jack the Ripper is trapped in the…

A lame Robocop rip-off fighting jumping Chinese vampires? Oh, Godfrey Ho, you magnificent bastard. Brought to you, of course, by Amazon Prime.
