Review of Subway (1985)

By Leia C (75) on 22 Jan 2008

Why the hell was Isabelle Adjani in this? She was by far the best aspect of this painfully '80s Eurotrash ripoff of The Warriors…

Review of Le Samouraï (1967)

By Leia C (75) on 26 Dec 2007

A somnambulistic sort of movie: extended sequences in which the protagonist says little to nothing, walking around Paris (sometimes while being…

Review of Camille Claudel (1988)

By Leia C (75) on 23 Dec 2007

It has long been the kind of love-and-hate film story that could well be too devastating and demanding to watch for more than once…

Review of Factotum (2005)

By Leia C (75) on 19 Dec 2007

Anyone with any conception of what it is to be a hunger artist in this world ought to watch this. And read Hamsun, Celine, Fante, Miller and Hamilton…

Review of The Blue Angel (1930)

By Leia C (75) on 22 Oct 2007

Bitter in the way only Germans can be. A great early movie by von Sternberg…

Review of Cobra Verde (1987)

By Leia C (75) on 21 Sep 2007

Probably the weakest of the Herzog-Kinski collaborations, it nonetheless showcases Kinski's characteristic intensity (with some worthwhile…

Review of Santa Claus Conquers the Martians (1964)

By Leia C (75) on 11 Sep 2007

A wonderfully educational look into the lives of our Martian cousins and probably the most frightening polar bear sequence ever filmed…

Review of Hellraiser: Inferno (2000)

By Leia C (75) on 04 Sep 2007

Pinhead reaches the noughties and a rather strange movie it is to, following the story of a cop and the puzzle box, needs more pinhead and…

Well I spose it had to happen, pinhead in space lol, plus back in the days of yore…

Review of Woyzeck (1979)

By Leia C (75) on 02 Sep 2007

It seems one of Herzog's recurring themes is that of a man who is somehow mentally off being demeaned, humiliated, and generally ground down…

Review of Phantasm (1979)

By Leia C (75) on 27 Aug 2007

Obviously very low-budget, but with tricks of editing and cinematography combined with general weirdness (flying brain-drilling spheres…

Review of Jesse James Meets Frankenstein's Daughter (1966)

By Leia C (75) on 27 Aug 2007

C'mon, Jesse, Frankenstein's daughter is clearly a much better catch than that younger, more submissive chick with the bad Spanish accent…

Review of The Devil's Nightmare (1971)

Those crazy Italians. This movie starts off with a WWII German army officer ordering his newborn child killed upon finding out it's a girl…

Review of Hellraiser: Hellseeker (2002)

By Leia C (75) on 27 Aug 2007

Somehow it feels like Hellraiser fanfic, and I don't mean the repressed-14-year-old girl kind in which two characters non-canonically hook…

Review of Train of Life (1998)

By Leia C (75) on 26 Aug 2007

A funny look at the Holocaust, but not in the purposefully overdone vein of The Producers. One of the best endings out there…

Review of Fata Morgana (1972)

By Leia C (75) on 22 Aug 2007

Sometimes reminded me of the much-later Baraka, but full of Herzog's own artistry and weirdness…
