  Love at First Bite 1979

  ★★½ Watched 23 Mar 2025

  Sorta amusing, but feels like it'd have been better served with more star power. There are some Mel Brooks style beats but they never quite nail the funny Dracula in the same way Dead And Loving It does.

  Gamera: Super Monster 1980

  ★ Watched 15 Mar 2025

  So it's come to this: a Gamera clipshow.

  (The movie is just reused footage from the previous films with a flimsy framing device. Lots of giant fire breathing space turtle action for your buck, but nothing new).

  The less you know, the more you'll get on a first watch of this.

  The Fly 1986

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 17 Jan 2024

  "You only know society's straight line about the flesh."

  Cronenburg at the absolute apex of his powers, with a stellar cast and effects team to back him up.

  Mad folks think Stathis is the hero by the end - an odious wretch in spirit, if not the flesh.
