It’s been… What? A year and a half since that happened? I’ve been missing that, let me tell you! Anyway, here’s the new stuff:
Gawain and the Green Knight (1973), which you might alternately think of as the beta test for Sword of the Valiant, or as Monty Python and the Holy Grail without the jokes…
The Green Knight (2021), in which the same old story gets a much more thoughtful (and also much more engagingly odd) treatment…
Halloween H20 (1998), in which, incredibly, we finally get a really good Halloween sequel…
The Last Dinosaur (1977), in which the title refers more properly to Richard Boone than to his Tyrannosaur nemesis…
and…
Rolls Royce Baby (1975), in which Erwin C. Dietrich borrows Lina Romay from Jesus Franco, and then just has her ride around the middle of nowhere in an old-timey limousine, picking up hitchhikers to screw.
And here’s another up-from-the-studs rebuild:
The Journey: Absolution (1997), which was my first brush with David DeCoteau way back when.
El Santo rules the wasteland-- and also 1000 Misspent Hours and Counting.

I gather Jaime Pressly has quite a serious career now, but I first saw her in Piñata: Survival Island (later than The Journey but only by a few years)… being fair, she was the best thing in it, but that wasn’t all that difficult.

Just want to say that I’m glad you’re writing again. The world is as full of good, bad and ugly movies as ever, and it needs B-Masters to write smart and entertaining articles about them.
Finding and watching the movies you write about has never been a waste of time. Or maybe it has been, but in the best possible way.
