Have yet to see it...

Lair of the White Worm (1988). This was simply a delightful trinity of comedy, horror, and Christian blasphemy. Ken Russel's deviation from the norms of humanity are a treat as this almost campy flick only gets better with age. The actors are all in on the gag, making the humor that much more gut-wrenching. Production values are pretty weak, but this is somehow transmogrified into one of this flick's strengths. The story itself is pretty solid, with maybe a hole here and there, but the viewer can hardly be bothered with such things. Being horribly sexy and funny, this wonder will occasionally shock its audience with a poison-laden psychedelic journey to the land of death sex with nuns. As long as that is not too offensive then this flick is probably for you. Late.

Hansel and Gretel (2007).............pretty good film. Great visuals. The story falls short during the second half. Doesn't really make any sense. Still kept my interest. Recommended

A bit bizarre but chilling psychological tale from Altman.

Ken Russell is a wicked wicked man. Have seen most of his films. My fav is The Devils. The old nuns and sex scenario is there to. If you havent seen it consider taking a look. Its quite difficult to find. Also, try Crimes of Passion.
A lot of crazy shit with Kathleen Turner and Anthony Perkins. Not for the kiddies

Vilmos Zsigmond's camerawork is great in this one.

The Red Violin (1998). This was simply a masterpiece of storytelling married to a wickedly passionate score. The story of this incredible violin as it passes through the ages harbored an almost mythic secret, and the characters it encounters and transmogrifies are left in the dust of its inanimate passions. The acting was incredible, with standout performances by Jackson and Flemyng. This brave story made for an incredible journey through the souls of time. The direction was solid, with equally adept camera work. The cinematography during the spree of the gypsy was especially delightful. The score was simply spectacular, of course this was to be expected. The ending itself seemed to stray away from the essence of this flick, but then again maybe this was just in the cards. Ashe.

"Prophecy" (1979)

Plot: IMDB
A log company's waste mutates the environment, creating a giant killer bear-monster.

Phantom's Review: This film should have been great. It has a fine director (John Frankenheimer) Some good stars (Talia Shire. Robert Foxworth) and a good writer (Davis Seltzer) yet it still manages to suck royally. A loser from start to finish.
