Tears of the Sun (2003)

As the end credits rolled for one hot minute i thought the actor Chad Smith playing the character 'Flea' must have been from a parallel universe or some other freaky styley subway to venus.

By the way, if you have to ask, it was a different Chad Smith to the one i was thinking of. I could have lied but no doubt someone would have told me i was warped .

Concise, honest, and reminding me of a few that I loved back in the day. Just one question: How the FOOK do you find the time to watch so many movies? I watched half of The Gate last night, fell asleep & had to get up for work!

I salute you!

Thank you

I'm presently on furlough (hopefully not for much longer) I love movies and I live alone. TBH, I have films that I haven't seen in a while or not at all so the only advantage this furlough has is the fact I can catch up.

While some of the films are long, some of them are around 80-100 minutes so not as time consuming.

Films these days are way too long

Bloodfist II

Don Wilson is back using the same character name from the original but this appears to be completely unrelated as this a couple of actors also re-appear but under new roles. Anyway Wilson is a retired Kickboxer who is lured to Manilla where he and other Martial Artists are kidnapped and forced to fight the bad guy's henchmen who are under a new type of Steroid in order to demonstrate the new drug to potential customers. If you like these type of films then give it a go.

Gung Ho

Michael Keaton stars in this 1986 Ron Howard Comedy where he plays a liaison between his co-workers and the Japanese employers who re-opened a car manufacturing plant. American and Japanese culture clash in this very entertaining and what appears to be an unappreciated and/or forgotten gem from The 80's

The Punisher (2004)

Tom Jane is Frank Castle and John Travolta is the villain who ordered the massacre of his family. I really forgot what an entertaining movie this is and other than the premise, different from the Dolph Lundgren 1989 film.

Evil Dead II (1987)

We are what was, and shall rule again
Dead by dawn, chanting death thee ancient hymn
This is not real, I am not the chosen one
Trapped in a spell of the Necronomicon

Dead by dawn, dead by dawn, dead by dawn
Dead, By, Yawn

I'm afraid i don't have the same love for Evil Dead II as i have for The Evil Dead and follow up Army of Darkness. Although the effects are great the whole thing is just far too slapstick silly. It doesn't work (for me) as a horror film nor a comedy.

It is a film i've seen numerous times so it does draw me back every so often but i always leave with the same slightly disappointed feeling.

FLASH GORDON'S TRIP TO MARS (1938)
UNIVERSAL SERIAL 15 CHAPTERS

Ming The Merciless joins forces with planet Mars Queen Azura to use a powerful ray to destroy the Earth's atmosphere.
Flash, Dale, Zarkov and reporter Happy Hapgood head off to Mars to stop the threat..

Although not matching the highs of the first serial this is really good entertainment.
Much of the soundtrack used is from Universal's Bride Of Frankenstein and The Invisible Man.
