Review of East of Eden (1955)

By Jeffrey P (309) on 24 Jun 2009

By Jeffrey P (309) on 10 Jun 2009

Lobsters as space aliens? Ray guys that turn their hapless victims into plastic human anatomy lecture skeletons…

Review of A Very Long Engagement (2004)

By Jeffrey P (309) on 16 May 2009

Review of Repulsion (1965)

By Jeffrey P (309) on 14 May 2009

Review of Fearless (2006)

Review of Tetro (2009)

By Jeffrey P (309) on 06 May 2009

Review of A Thousand Clowns (1965)

By Jeffrey P (309) on 03 Feb 2009
