Keep, the

Childrens Toy Shop > VHS > Drama
starring: Scott Glenn, Alberta Watson, Jürgen Prochnow, Robert Prosky, Gabriel Byrne
directed by: Michael Mann

The Keep is one of those lesser known horror movies that is quite successful in creating a supernatural atmosphere and virtually mesmerizes the viewer. The acting is superb, the music is haunting, and the visuals are exciting to watch. The scenes involving Gabriel Byrne and Jorgen Prochnow are the best that either actor has ever done in film. I strongly agree with others that this film should be released on dvd with extra footage. Even if Paramount charged double the normal price for such a product, I am certain that they would make more than enough profit from all the horror fans out there. Let's keep on bugging Paramount, people, then maybe they will get the hint sooner rather than later!

For those being so critical of the American movie producers let me say that the blame for the fictional version of Jeannine Deckers life lies directly on Fichermont convent. The only way the film could be made was if it bore no resemblance to the real life of Sr. Luc Gabriel. The true story of Jeannine Deckers' life will be out this year, which includes the tale of how this movie was produced. Watch my web site for a release date.

Collision Course

Childrens Toy Shop > VHS > Drama
starring: Pat Morita, Jay Leno, Chris Sarandon, Tom Noonan, Ernie Hudson
directed by: Lewis Teague

April 04, 2000
This movie was shown to ex-POW's by our congenial government. It was supposed to be a kind of deprogramming, a "welcome-back-to-USA-pop-culture" sort of thing. The ex-POW's were fed some psychedelic mushrooms, strapped to an arm chair with tattered upholstery, and made to watch this Jay Leno movie from the eighties. I know what you're thinking: "but heh, I thought most of the POW's came back in the late seventies, at the latest!" Well, it seems that you've caught me in a horrible, horrible lie; and I must own up to my mendacity. Would it appease you if I were to contribute dough to some charitable cause? Here ...(sounds of scribbling on a blank check), I'll give something to that American Indian College Fund thang.

Apocalypse - DVD

Childrens Toy Shop > VHS > Drama
starring: Luis Palau, Leigh Lewis, Marlin Maddoux, Richard Nester, Rexella Van Impe
directed by: Peter Gerretsen

April 29, 2008
I had to watch this film in a university class called the Apocalyptic Consciousness. It is possibly the worst movie I have ever seen. It exploits the tragedies in the stock footage it uses, the acting is terrible, it inspires xenophobia, and contains several shameless plugs for Jack van Impe, a self-proclaimed Ph.d. Don't waste your time watching this movie, and certainly don't waste your money to buy it.

Unfortuneately these "collectors" would not be complaining if they only new half of when ,why and where this movie was produced and released.........it was NEVER supposed to be released as The Sound of Music was being released in the same week. Also Florence Hendersons 1st ever singing review. Rhis movie ONLY a collector...for real collect buffs, its never been graded or even edited. Be happy with this original that you have as there are soooo many copies of that out there and even then they are VERY few and far between......... For us OLD folks these types of movies are all we have left of our good memories...... Please dont spoil it for others..... Respectfully Submitted.

Robin & Marian

Childrens Toy Shop > VHS > Drama
starring: Sean Connery, Audrey Hepburn, Robert Shaw, Richard Harris, Nicol Williamson
directed by: Richard Lester

April 14, 1998
This movie is an undiscovered gem. It is not only a beautiful love story, but it is also attempts to present a realistic picture of the age of the Crusades.

The acting is wonderful. The scenery is gorgeous. The audience is treated with respect. The writing is wonderful. You can stop reading now, as this should be enough to make you buy the movie.

Two additional points: the movie contains the best once sentence describtion of the middle age mind set: "he was my king" and watch this movie and you will get Eddie Izzard's joke in his HBO stand up routine.

I can't understand how this transfer slipped thru. Terrible sound and the picture is the worst I've ever seen, totally out-of-focus, almost impossible to watch without getting a headache. My question to MGM..WHY ??
