It was perhaps inevitable that Empire Pictures would fold with efforts like Eliminators, having a high concept but pretty poor execution for the most part.
AMITYVILLE DEATH HOUSE (2015)
…in which it seems that even the name guest-star would rather be watching a different film…
But, hey! – eye-windows!
[NB: NSFW: a little blood, and some very silly nudity.]
I have also transferred over:
– Dr Jekyll And Mr Hyde (1931)
– The Lodger (1927)
– The Lodger (1932)

This isn’t an official Roundtable entry – given that it was my entry for a different Roundtable – but the time seemed ripe for a Resurrected Review…
…in which the only thing that sucks more than being an unappreciated middle-school teacher is being one of that teacher’s students…
[NB: NSFW: blood and dead bodies; lots]

The most deserving game
May 1
So apparently there are people in the world whose idea of a good time is to go out and kill something. Guns, knives, crossbows, spears, hooks, traps—it’s all good, as long as an animal ends up dead.

…in which double engine-failure over the Atlantic Ocean threatens the lives of a small mongrel dog and two dozen budgies.

I have also copied over Jet Storm (1959) (apologies for the tasteless timing on that one) and Jet Over The Atlantic (1959).

.
Enjoy!
