Lost and Found: Good Girls Don’t

Good Girls Don’t went straight to video in 1993, and has yet to make it to DVD or Blu-ray. I caught it streaming on our Lord and Savior, Tubi. I’m certain I also saw it back in the ‘90s on USA Up All Night. It sure as heck feels like the sort of movie Rhonda … Continue reading Lost and Found: Good Girls Don’t →

Lost and Found: Fair Game

The prolific Australian exploitation film era of the 1970s through the 1980s, often referred to as “Ozsploitation,” produced a startling streak of stone-cold classics, including Mad Max (1979), Thirst (1979), Road Games (1981), Next of Kin (1982), and so many more. One of these days I hope to feature a few of those lesser known … Continue reading Lost and Found: Fair Game →

From the Vault: Avenging Angel

This love letter to one of my favorite 1980s cult classics originally appeared at my old site, in slightly different form, many years ago, in a galaxy far, far away.

What I’ve Been Watching

I watch a lot of movies, but only write about a fraction of them. Plus I keep writing about Michelle Pfeiffer’s movies over and over again, so there’s only so much time for other stuff! So I thought it might be fun to do a bunch of short reviews for the movie I’ve been watching … Continue reading What I’ve Been Watching →

Lost and Found: Streetwalkin’

One of the more prevalent cult movie genres in the 1980s featured prostitutes navigating the dangerous streets of whatever big city in which they plied their trade (almost always New York or Los Angeles). Let’s name it the Streetwalkin’ genre, after the 1985 film that, in my humble opinion, best personifies this style: Streetwalkin’. A … Continue reading Lost and Found: Streetwalkin’ →

How Grease 2 Became a Cult Classic

Earlier this month, Entertainment Weekly published a double-ketchup sized oral history of one of the greatest movies ever made, Grease 2. You can read the full, lengthy piece here, comprised of interviews with nearly every important player in the film. This includes star Michelle Pfeiffer, who probably says more about the film here than she … Continue reading How Grease 2 Became a Cult Classic →

Bad Girls We Love: Helga from Tammy and the T-Rex

Tammy and the T-Rex (1994) is one of my favorite examples of a lost cult classic rediscovered decades later by B-movie aficionados thanks to a boutique label restoring it for a Blu-ray release. I do not remember this movie from the nineties, but that’s probably because it came and went in a flash and barely … Continue reading Bad Girls We Love: Helga from Tammy and the T-Rex →
