Now, the hunter becomes the hunted as Jake will stop at nothing to track him down to finish the job. Extras:
My Thoughts: What do I think of this one? Hmmmm... ever watch a movie and afterwards not really know what you thought of it? Well that is how this one is for me. Not great... but not bad either. The problem is I can't pinpoint what I liked and what I didn't like about this film. But as a whole I found it to be an entertaining waste of time. But I don't see myself going back to this one all that often. My Rating: (From Unwatched DVDs/Blu-rays on May 7th, 2014) A Lawless Street, a review by RogmeisterA Lawless Street (1956) 77 minutes Cast: Randolph Scott, Angela Lansbury, Warner Anderson, Jean Parker, Wallace Ford Director: Joseph H. Lewis Music: Paul Sawtell Yes, it's time for yet another Randolph Scott western! In this one, he is a lawman who moves from town to town in the Colorado territory, ridding them of outlaws. He is married to a lovely singer (Lansbury) but she leaves him and won't return as long as he is involved in this dangerous duty but he has one last town he wants to clean up. This was a good western with some dynamite stuntwork (especially in one big fight scene between Scott and a large extremely strong foe) and is quickly paced. The DVD has a good quality print but no real extras...apart for some trailers of other westerns. (From Roger's Ongoing Westerns Marathon on July 14th, 2009) Sliders Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd9. THE PRINCE OF SLIDES Remmy is mistaken for the husband of a pregnant princess on a world where a monarchy rules... and where husbands are required to carry babies through gestation. My Thoughts: This is a decent episode... though not what I would call a favorite. It was pretty fun seeing a pregnant Remmy though. My Rating: 10. DEAD MAN SLIDING Quinn is arrested and tried on a world where justice is meted out not in a courtroom, but on the set of a game show. My Thoughts: This is a fun episode... and has a couple blasts from the past. It has guest stars from a couple old TV Sitcoms... Don Most (Ralph Mouth on Happy Days) and Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs (Fredyy "Boom Boom" Washington on Welcome Back, Kotter). My Rating: 11. STATE OF THE A.R.T. The Sliders find themselves on a world where the only human being is Father, a man who created a race of androids to replace humans in the workforce. My Thoughts: This is another decent episode... but not a favorite. I think the whole last person on Earth type thing had to be told in this series. But I think my favorite thing about this show is that it has Robert Englund (Freddy Krueger) as a guest star. My Rating: 12. SEASON'S GREEDINGS On a world where some people live in shopping malls, Wade finds a parallel sister and father, just in time for Christmas. My Thoughts: A good episode... I really enjoyed it. It shows just how commercialized Christmas has become... in an extreme example of course. It also tries to show what is important when it comes to Christmas... family.
