This movie is the perfect exemple of why I love those old unknown movies. This movie was made with no budget and its clearly visible, but if you remember I've already wrote that I ask only thing to a movie, I want to be entertaint by it.

This film is a lot of fun! The cast enjoy making it and we easilly see it. The story is simple (it's a super hero movie!). The music is great. Carolyn Brandt had never look more beautifull and she's always good looking now. No violence at all in this, just a good familly film (if your familly like my genre of film). A movie that I could watch with my five years old niece if she would talking in english.

Sure I recommand it, you got 2 super hero, a great sixties soundtrack, a party at the beach, a nice looking woman, a funny story, a cast who cares and, as a bonus, a man in a gorilla suit.

Taking the risk to shocking some of you : I have enjoyed this movie thousands time more than Spider Man

The Ghost Goes West, a review by Antares

The Ghost Goes West (1935) 3/5 - I'm a huge fan of Robert Donat, and I've yet to see him put in a less than stellar performance in any film. As usual, he makes it look effortless playing a modern day Scottish clan leader named Donald Glourie and his deceased ancestor Murdoch, who happens to haunt the castle Donald resides in. But that being said, the rest of the film is very lightweight fluff, with a pretty threadbare premise to its story. Eugene Pallette, another of my favorites, has very little to do, except look befuddled, which is a waste of his talents. One bright spot is Jean Parker, a cute, waifish slice of adorable who I couldn't take my eyes off of whenever she was onscreen. After I finished the film, I went straight to IMDB to see what kind of career she had, and unfortunately, this was her high water mark. The story meanders it way through very lightweight comedy and the resolution to the plot is predictable early on. If it came on TCM, I'd watch it again, just to catch another glimpse of Parker, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it.

Sliders Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd

1. GENESIS
Home isn't necessarily where the heart is when Quinn and Maggie discover the Earth Prime has been taken over by warrior Kromaggs in their absence.

My Thoughts:
While I normally don't care for the ongoing Kromagg storyline... this is a very good episode. Unfortunately we have to say goodbye to Wade in this season. One of my favorite characters.

My Rating:

2. PROPHETS AND LOSS
The Sliders jump to the scary side of organized religion when they land in an eerily peaceful Los Angeles ruled by an oracle the sends people to "the Other Side."

My Thoughts:
This is a pretty good episode. Though they used this "help the rebels" part of the storyline on more then one occasion before. So that took away from it a little for me. Though I did like the rest of the storyline.

My Rating:

3. COMMON GROUND
The Sliders land in a world where the Kromaggs conduct ruthless experiments on humans, but trusting a Kromagg commander may be their only way out.

My Thoughts:
This is one of the several Kromagg related episodes... and one of the several I didn't care much for. I found it pretty slow and boring actually.

My Rating:

4. VIRTUAL SLIDE
Maggie's sanity is a danger when she's captured by a greedy businessman who uses virtual reality scenarios to try to get her to reveal the secret to sliding.

My Thoughts:
Not a bad episode... but pretty much average. At least this one don't have any Kromaggs in it.

My Rating:
