Most of the time the poundshop is filled with tatty knock offs imported cheaply from Turkmenistan, but everyone once in a while you find a gem. This is not one of those times.

Expect No Mercy (1996)

August 12, 2005

I own at least three copies of this movie. There is no good reason for that.

Memory Run (1996)

July 27, 2005

Memory Run, or Synapse as it seems to be called in America, is in fact not a low budget sequel to Johnny Mnemonic (oh how good that could have been), but instead tells the story of body crime, in a future time.

The Revenger

June 7, 2005

No, I said Sex On The Toilet before Frank Zagarino.

Final Impact

May 22, 2005

Lorenzo Lamas isn't totally incapable of acting, as he has shown in various other projects, but Final Impact tries to be a drama and a kickboxing movie and is entirely unsatisfactory as both.

Nightmaster

April 26, 2005

Amazon are trying to sell this with the description "The boundaries between real life and fantasy becomes blurred when Robbie and Amy play night games...", which may give you the wrong impression about the kind of action this movie contains.

Playing God

March 6, 2005

I warn you, this film features a laconic performance by David Duchovny. Unlike most of double d's roles, which are energy packed.

The Maker

February 25, 2005

Top quality crime/coming of age drama from the pound shop? Who'd have thunk it.

All The Queen's Men

February 16, 2005

One of the more interesting artistic choices that the opening indicates, and is repeated throughout the movie, is the lack of subtitles on the sections conducted in german.

Cover-Up

January 30, 2005

In the end, unlike one of Dolph's later thrillers, Silent Trigger, Cover-Up doesn't even give us a ludicrously huge gun to provide amusement through the more tepid sections of the film.
