    Born Of Fire – Movie Review:

    Lumped in with the wave of horror films that emerged in the 1980s, Jamil Dehlavi’s Born Of Fire has more in common with The Holy Mountain or I Will Walk Like A Crazy Horse than it does Friday The 13th or any other eighties horror picture you’d care     ...

    Catman In Lethal Track/Catman In Boxer’s Blow – Movie Review:

    Godfrey Ho is a name most often associated with classic Ninja cinema, usually in the form of a Richard Harrison vehicle, or a name most often associated with a couple of Men Behind The Sun rip offs that really didn’t have anything to do with the first film at all. But what many people don’t recognize Mr. Ho for are his two Catman films: Catman In Lethal Track and Catman In The Boxer’s Blow. These two important works of filmic art have yet to really get their due in the halls of the cinematic     ...

    The Executioner 1 & 2 – Movie Review:

    A double dose of the bad man from Japan!

    The Executioner:

    Sonny Chiba (The Street Fighter, Kill Bill) stars with Yasuaki Kurata (Fist of Legend) in this classic Japanese action movie directed by Teruo Ishii (Street Fighter's Last Revenge, Female Yakuza Tale).
