The local video ezy is getting rid of a shitload of old vhs videos for $2 each (would have been less if the boss wasn’t there!) and what man can resist such bargains. There will be a slew of reviews when I find time to actually watch these babies (oh my aching liver) but here’s the list of treats I picked up.
Thunderground starring Jesse Ventura! Streetfighting men.
Hired To Kill simply because it was directed by Nico Mastorakis and Oliver Reed is in it. You know it will be bad.
Fat City – classic boxing movie with Stacy Keach. Maybe just about the best boxing movie ever made.
Semi Tough – Burt Reynolds, $2 why not?
Action Jackson – Oh yeah! Carl Weathers, Vanity – come on what more could you need?
Booby Trap – it’s 1998 and LA is a lawless quarantine zone!
Moonshine County Express – New World Pictures, John Saxon, moonshine, gals!!! Would have paid $3 for this
Circle Man – Vernon Wells. More street fightin’
Penitentiary – come on $2 I had to.
Cherry Hustlers – sure its cut down to R rating but its Vanessa Del Rio. I had to rescue her.
Shakes The Clown –Christ I nearly came in my pants when I saw this on the shelf.
Over the last few months I picked up a coupla other treats too – it seems no one wants their videos anymore. Well, that’s fine by me.
Death Ship – no not the wanky new flick this is the one with George Kennedy. Sleazy grimy and a dollar.
The Thing – John Carpenter’s greatest movie? Anyway, it’s a corker and again it was a lousy dollar.
Confessional Murders – directed by Pete Walker so its gonna be good.
Savage Streets – yeah I know its censored but hell it still kicks arse.
Young Warriors – some dumb 80s vigilante flick but hell it was three movies for ten bucks and I needed a third.
Boulevard Nights – classic and underrated gang movie that wasn’t as colorful as The Warriors or the Wanderers and so has been forgotten. There were three copies of this on the shelf. Does no one have any taste anymore?
