Tin
Cup- A washed up golf pro working at a driving range tries to qualify
for the US Open in order to win the heart of his successful rival's girlfriend. I have been waiting a long time for this
sports comedy to come out on blu so thanks Warner Archive. This is one of Costner’s best movies and Rene
Russo is great too. If you are not into golf
do not let that stop you from watching this, highly recommended.
Eye
See You- A lead detective being stalked by a serial killer is asked to
check into a clinic treating law enforcement officials who can't face their
jobs. Sly made this flick as part of a 3-picture
deal with Universal. Daylight was first,
then this, and then the third one never happened. Eye See You was know as Detox
at the time and sat on the shelf a long time before it came out at a handful of
theaters and then was a Blockbuster Video exclusive release with its new
title. This is not a bad mystery flick,
something new for Sly and it is almost a horror movie with a Seven kind of vibe
to it. It gets a little messy in the
final act but it is still worth a watch and has a killer supporting cast in it. The gold on this disc is it also features the
director’s cut of the movie although it’s in VHS quality. It may
be good considering all the infighting this movie seemed to have had going on and
being shelfed for so long. I am interested
in checking this out.
Destry
Rides Again- When a tough western town needs taming, the mild-mannered
son of a hard-nosed sheriff gets the job.
I love this old western and was really glad Criterion announced this
classic title. This movie was a first of
it kind back in the day as the female is the tough guy of the movie and Jimmy Stewart
is just kind of himself here. This is a
great watch if you like really old westerns.
Gutter
Balls- A bowling night will turn into a bloody death match for a team of
teenagers, as a deranged serial killer is taking them down one by one. I have never seen this but this horror flick has
quite to cult status.
Captain
Kronos- A master swordsman and former soldier and his hunchbacked
assistant hunt vampires. This is one of
those movies that has been getting a lot of love this last few years so I may
jump on the bandwagon and finally watch it.
