This month’s VideoVista…

… is now up, with four – count them, four – reviews by Yours Truly. There’s well-played cosmological drama Dark Matter (review here), Russian historical epic Iron & Blood: The Legend of Taras Bulba (review here), Austrian WWII caper movie My Best Enemy (review here), and low-budget low-quality 1930s martial arts film Twin Daggers (review here).

June’s VideoVista is now up…

… containing, among many excellent reviews, my reviews of brilliant Norwegian actioner pastiche Norwegian Ninja (review here), a true story based on the life of Norway’s very own quisling, Arne Treholt; terrible spoof country-house murder-mystery Dark and Stormy Night (review here), about which the less said the better; and low-budget fantasy film Journey to Promethea (review here), which is a possible candidate for the worst film ever made…

It’s all about movies…

This month’s VideoVista is now up, with my reviews of excellent Israeli thriller Ajami (review here), heavy-handed noir The Racket (review here), and sub-standard low-budget thriller Choose (review here).

Also up today is SF Signal’s Mind Meld: Movie Novelizations That Are Actually Good, in which I explain why I don’t think novelizations are a very good idea, and lots of other people actually address the topic.
