  • The Man with the Golden Gun

    The one where Bond faces Scaramanga, the guy with three nipples and a dwarf servant.

  • Murder on the Orient Express

    Stratospheric cast does an adaptation while Agatha Christie was still alive! Goddamn brilliant.

  • The Conversation

    Just because you’re paranoid, doesn’t mean they aren’t out to get you. He’d kill us if he got the chance.

  • Zardoz

    The Wizard of Oz. 50 Shades of Matrix. There’s more flesh on display than all the abbatoir scenes in Rocky.

  • The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

    What the fuck is this, a lot of noise, screams, and darkness. Horrifying production values here. Clearly a video nasty, not many redeeming qualities here.

  • Blazing Saddles

    Whaddya know, it’s a Mel Brooks film. A kind of high brow Airplane!. It’s a bit intense, a lot of “niggers” and “chinks” thrown around, and enormous amounts of gay jokes.

  • Death Wish

    Ah, is this the more centrist response to Dirty Harry? This is as fascist and anti-hippie as that, but the hero is a just a regular architect, not a credentialed murderer. The cosmopolitrometer is off the charts, lower than The Town, this is the new benchmark.
