Werewolf of London (1935), a review by addicted2dvd

Werewolf of London (1935)


My Thoughts:
I have a bit of mixed feelings on this one. Even though I enjoyed the story very much... there was a few things here that I didn't care for. The first thing I noticed was while the werewolf makeup was pretty cool looking... it wasn't as good as the makeup in The Wolf Man. Of course this movie is 6 years earlier then the more famous The Wolf Man. Another thing that just rubbed me the wrong way is after the first time of become the werewolf... he goes to leave on the hunt.... but before leaving takes the time to stop and put on his hat, jacket and scarf. That just didn't make any sense to me at all. The quality on this movie is very good especially for how old the movie is. There was however one minor problem with the audio. Throughout the first half of the movie we had nice loud, crisp and clear sound. Then at about the half way point the sound level dropped... even though still crisp and clear it was only about half the volume. Like I said... minor problem and it didn't stop me from enjoying the movie. There is 2 extras attached with this movie. A featurette for the classic universal werewolf movies and the trailer for this movie. So far I only watched the trailer.

Plot:
From writer/director John Hughes (Sixteen Candles, Weird Science), The Breakfast Club is an iconic portrait of 1980s American high shcool life. When Saturday detention started, they were simply the Jock, the Princess, the Brain, the Criminal and the Basket Case, but by that afternoon they had become closer than any of them could have imagined. Featuring an all-star '80s cast including Emilio Estevez, Anthony Michael Hall, Judd Nelson, Molly Ringwald, and Ally Sheedy, this warmhearted coming-of-age comedy helped define an entire generation!

Extras:

• Scene Access
• Audio Commentary
• Feature Trailers
• Featurettes
• BD-Live

I just finished watching this one. It is one of the few well known '80s films that I never seen. And this one is really filled with well known stars. The one that surprised me... I would have never recognized him if they didn't say it in the trailer... is Anthony Michael Hall. I loved him in the TV series The Dead Zone. Anyway... I enjoyed every minute of this one. If you never seen this movie I haighly recommend it! I got this one from the library... so I am hoping I will be able to add it to my collection before too long!

The 2013 Pilot Review, a review by DJ Doena

Masters of Sex

Masters of Sex @ IMDb
Masters of Sex @ Wikipedia

Synopsis: The series tells the history of a doctor, an OB/GYN and his assistant who for the first time examine the biology of human sexuality.

My Opinion: It's based on real people and I assume is supposed to be a period piece but I found it to be rather boring. I guess it tries to draw its appeal to an American audience with nude bodies and sex scenes.
