"Striking Distance" - Very underrated. Nothing mind blasting, but a solid action thriller none the less.

And the great support cast is what really lifts it. Tom Sizemore in great form, nice turns from Tom Atkins, Brion James and John Mahony and some excellent barnstorming by the GREAT Dennis Farina.

Maniac- No, not the 80's slasher...a very, very bizare little film from the mid-30's. Elements of Frankenstien and The Black Cat, combined with some clips from some "classic" silent movies made this a very odd film. Not very good acting, info describing different types of phycosis inbetween scenes....Im really not sure what to think about this movie.

It is.


THE RETURN:
Ahhhhhhh.....1934's "Maniac"!!!
A complete blueprint for the Exploitation avalanche that would start to roll big time in the late 60's!

Nudity, poor abused animals, violence, psychotic scientists, feline eyeball munching, battling clothes ripping women, fantastically mad dialogue, snarling homicidal loons who think they're Orang-utan's…and tips for successful cat fur farming!

Utter madness on celluloid!

Did you like it? I think I'm going to see it a second time...as kooky as Tom Cruise is, I thought it was still a damn good movie. :)
