Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984)
Like most film lovers I have a batch of Christmas movies I watch to get me in the mood. These include the classics like; „It‘s a Wonderful Life“ (1946), „A Christmas Story“ (1983), „Christmas Vacation“ (1989) and such. But November has evolved into the month where the dark side of Christmas is explored with a few Cult-Christmas flicks. They‘re not all good but they are pretty much unmissable this time of year in my household.
Man from Atlantis episodes
It was short and sweet; 4 films and 13 episodes and the Man from Atlantis vanished. Patrick Duffy hit it big in „Dallas“ but his interest with the character persisted and the actor published a novel in 2016 where he covered his origins. Duffy explained that if the novel would sell in large numbers he would be interested in doing a trilogy about this aquatic man who‘s possibly from Atlantis.
Ian Ogilvy Q&A
My second interview with Ian. He was up for another Q&A a year from my first interview. More of his movies had been released on Blu-ray and a “new” Saint film had been released on Netflix.
A Saint becomes a Sinner : Q&A‘s with Ian Ogilvy
British actor Ian Ogilvy has starred in numerous cult films that are getting a new lease on life on Blu-ray. The charismatic actor has acted alongside genre greats such as Barbara Steele, Vincent Price, Boris Karloff, Herbert Lom and Peter Cushing to name a few. Throughout the years he‘s kept busy with steady work in features and on television and, most notably, he stepped into Roger Moore‘s shoes as Simon Templar in „Return of the Saint“ (1978-1979). For a single season he portrayed The Saint and during this period Ian was mentioned along with other actors as a possible successor to Moore as 007 himself.

Halloween 2018
Michael Myers is back! After all; it‘s the 40th anniversary of the most influential slasher film and there hasn‘t been a sequel since Rob Zombie‘s „Halloween II“ (2009) nine years ago. But the Michael Myers who‘s back may surprise those who have little to no knowledge of the franchise‘s complicated history of reboots, alternete universes and the like.
The Greatest American Hero
Superhero movies soar like never before. In fact; the last film I reviewed professionally was „Venom“ and it‘s another kind of superhero flick in the „Deadpool“ vein. It kinda‘ takes itself seriously yet it let‘s loose a good dose of humor and has an anti-hero with more than a few shades of grey.
