John Carter is a wee treat alright.
Shark! (1969, Samuel Fuller)
Where
do I start with this one?
Fuller's penultimate film. He wasn't party to the editing to it (wildly chequered production history aside), so do not come expecting his usual standard visually. Regardless, it's business as usual; what with the amorality a gogo that you
do expect from his characters
. Burt's so
rugged etc
.
Did I mention Barry Sullivan playing a drunken doctor (in a fez!!!)?? And also the child character calld Runt, who is seen smoking a cigar at one point (and NO, it's nae Peter Bark ahahaha). The print of this Prism dvd was like mud in milk, so I will be getting the Troma BD
sharpish.
Did I mention it was a Troma film?
Distrubuted by them anyhow cough. A real death that occured during the filming is ruthlessly exploited, which does make for a queasy scene or two. Crivvens etc.
