The Black Scorpion, a review by GSyren
(From Reviews and ramblings by Gunnar on February 17th, 2015) Gunman From Bodie, a review by RogmeisterGunman From Bodie (1941) 62m Directed by Spencer G. Bennet Cast: Buck Jones, Tim McCoy, Tim McCoy, Raymond Hatton, Robert Frazer, Christine McIntyre, Frank LaRue This is the second film in the "B" western series of the Rough Riders which starred Buck Jones, Tim McCoy and Raymond Hatton and is considered the best of the series. It is a slightly confusing plot (as was the the first of the series, Arizona Bound). In it, Buck Jones is apparently an outlaw while Tim McCoy is a marshal and Hatton is a cook on a ranch. Unbeknownst to the other characters, the three are really friends working secretly together. The story actually begins one rainy stormy night where Buck (as Bodie) comes across a couple who have been murdered by rustlers and he finds them dead but their baby is still alive and he find the woman still holding a note naming their killers. It's okay...not great...and the picture quality is just so-so. (From DCO third annual November Alphabet Marathon - discussion/review/banter thread on November 30th, 2009) Pete's Pilots, a review by addicted2dvdC.S.I. It's all here. All the cases. All the evidence. All the solutions. All 23 episodes of the Golden Globe nominated first season of CSI. Now available in this special edition DVD set, containing special features and behind-the-scenes extras. Pilot Gil Grissom is the supervisor of the graveyard shift of Las Vegas' elite crime scene investigators. Holly Gribbs, fresh out of the academy, joins the team. Jim Brass is head of the unit and is trying to scare Gribbs from CSI. Catherine Willows, mother of a young daughter, is the number two CSI on this shift. Warrick Brown and Nick Stokes are competing to solve their 100th case to earn a promotion to CSI 3. Grissom investigates a murder staged to look like a suicide with precious little evidence. Warrick and Catherine take the case of a drunk who breaks into the house where he had been staying and is shot to death. Nick talks to a man who picked up a woman who drugged and robbed him. My Thoughts: This is an excellent series. The whole cast is great and the stories are very engrossing. I was glued to the set from the opening to the ending of the episode... and still wanted more. If you never checked out this series I highly recommend it. I really don't think you will be sorry. My Rating: (From Pete's Pilots on November 16th, 2009) |
