Last House on the Left, a review by addicted2dvd

Last House on the Left


My Thoughts:
I blind bought this movie several years ago and just now getting around to watching it. After watching this one... I still not 100% sure what I think of it. I am far less then impressed though... I don't know if it is something I would ever watch again. That being said... I think the premise of the movie is a good one... I just don't particularly like the way it was carried out. I do think that if this movie was remade it would have the potential of being something really good.

Jesus Christ Superstar, a review by Jimmy

Rating: G
Length: 1h47
Video: Widescreen

Plot:I agree I cheat a little, since this isn't an unknown movie at all but it's been a long time since I've reviewed a film here. I've appreciated this one a lot more than anticipated, I was "traumatized" as a young child with the broadcasting of another version of the Christ story every year here. The music is really good, in fact I listen the movie again while I write this. All the performers had great voices, but Carl Anderson who plays Judas and Yvonne Elliman who plays Mary Magdalene (she's quite beautifull also) are above the rest. The idea of filming the movie in the Israel desert is a real good one since the scenery is astounding. Love the fact that the story is tell from the point of view of Judas since we are able to understand his reasonning for the treason he will do later (hope that I haven't spoil the end of the story for anyone ). An interesting fact, at least for me, this movie is the first one of Paul Thomas who will became a couple of years later one of the best actor in the adult movies I love so much. One thing that was puzzling me while watching is the fact that we don't see Mary at all, but finally I've understand at the end... Tim Rice who had written the opera is British and they don't believe in the Immaculate Conception like us the Roman Catholics

Really there isn't a part of this movie that I haven't like. A sure recommandation for everyone except Pete

Tom's Random Star Trek Reviews, a review by Tom

Star Trek
2.26 Assignment: Earth
Writer: Art Wallace (Screenwriter), Gene Roddenberry (Original Material By), Art Wallace (Original Material By), Gene Roddenberry (Original Characters By)
Director: Marc Daniels
Cast: William Shatner (Kirk), Leonard Nimoy (Mr. Spock), DeForest Kelley (Dr. McCoy), Robert Lansing (Mister Seven), Terri Garr (Roberta Lincoln), James Doohan (Scott), George Takei (Sulu), Nichelle Nichols (Uhura), Walter Koenig (Chekov), Don Keefer (Cromwell), Lincoln Demyan (Sergeant), Morgan Jones (Col. Nesvig), Bruce Mars (First Policeman), Ted Gehring (Second Policeman), Paul Baxley (Security Chief)

This is an interesting case. It's a back-door pilot for a series which was never picked up. It's strange that Star Trek serves for introducing/spinning of a series, which is set in the present day (1968). Even though the Enterprise and crew play a minor role in this episode, I enjoyed it. I am a little curious how this series would have turned out. But I am not really surprised that it was not picked up.
This is also the first (and I think the only time), that the Enterprise travels through time just for fun (or as they say, for historical research).
