My Thoughts:
Looking at other reviews for this one surprises me a bit. This one is really an under-appreciated film. One that I enjoyed very much. It is my favorite since the first two. It is one that my brother and I disagree on... as this is his least favorite of the series. not that he didn't like it... he said he did very much... it is just his least favorite. I really liked how this one brings us back to where it all started. I also liked that they took the final fight out of the ring for this one... making it a street fight. Once again I want to say how I am disappointed in the extras for this set. No real extras included.

My Rating:
Out of a Possible 5

Creepy Clips: Girls Night Out, a review by addicted2dvd



Title: Creepy Clips: Girls Night Out
Movie Count:  7
TV Ep. Count:  1
Other Count:  1
Time Started:  11:40

Plot:
Creepy Clips : Girls Night Out is the first anthology of the erotic horror trilogy. It countains two tales of erotic terror.

My Thoughts:
Another one from the Mortuary of Madness 50 movie boxset. Naturally I am going into this one expecting much of nothing. This one didn't impress me much at all. It is another Anthology horror... though it seems hardly worth it to have one with only 2 stories... and no wraparound story. And the stories worried more about having half naked women dancing around then to create a decent story. Though the audio and video quality was better then I expected. There just wasn't enough to the stories themselves.

My Thoughts:
It has now been five years since I bought this set and I finally came around watching it.
When the series was to be cancelled after the fourth season, most relevant storylines were already wrapped up. So this season came off with a weak start. I never cared for the telepath storyline in this season. Mostly because I didn't like how Byron and his people were portrayed.
I also missed Ivanova. But I must admit, that Lockley filled the void well. I liked Tracy Scoggins much better here than as Cat in Lois & Clark's first season.
As the most storylines were already wrapped up, JMS could take a slower pace to wrap up some loose ends and to give each character a proper farewell. This is the strength of the second half of this season. I also liked that they slowly introduced their replacements on the station. It gives a feeling that there could be another series with a new set of characters.
This series is still one of the best TV shows, with season three being my personal favourite. It showed that a series can contain a planned out continuous storyline instead of doing standalone episodes. And what I find amazing is, that most of the episodes were written by JMS himself (92 out of 110 episodes). Except for one episode in season 5 he wrote all of season 3 to 5 and most of the episodes of the first two seasons!
