Review: The Punisher: It was Punishment alright...

This is what happens when you stray too far… It would be too easy for me to spout off how much I hated The Punisher and everyone involved in this steaming pile. Poorly made 80s action movie. Flat characters. Bad acting. Terrible one-liners.

NetfliXperiments: Ouch! My Head Hurts--Foreign Films

Once again, I've raided Netflix's vaults. This time in search of some artsy movies. I really enjoy foreign films. But once in a while I’ll go out on a limb and come back with my head spinning. There are tons of pointy-headed art movies out there, I’m sure everyone’s seen one. Here’s a short list of recent one’s I’ve seen and they remind me why I’ve never tried learning French.

A first look at Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks' summer dramedy, The Terminal, hit the web last night.  Packed with Spielberg essentials, a great cast and interesting story, the Terminal should be decent.  Check it.

NetfliXperiments: Highway Horror & Hillbilly Fishermen

Netflix has thousands of films to rent. I try to squeeze in as many films as I can since I pay a monthly fee. I skip the junk you can rent at Blockbuster and go straight to the sublime, irreverent and just plain weird you can’t find anywhere else. Consider me your trash man and treasure hunter as we experiment with movies we never knew existed.
