Review of Barb Wire (1996) by George B — 04 Jan 2005

[b]The Last Horror Movie[/b] - Quirky low budget film...but gets the job done. No real scares, more like an American Psycho/Funny Games kind of horror film, but I recommend you check it out. But avoid the making of...those Brits sure can be pompous asses when they want to.

[b]Six String Samurai[/b] - Now this flick was a lot of fun. Weird...kinda Road Warrior meets Kill Bill meets The Wizard of Oz. Shot on a smaller budget as well, but you can see how done correctly, they made full use of what they had.

[b]Barb Wire[/b] - Why did I buy this? Oh yeah, it was cheap. Why the two out of ten? Well, there's a left reason, and a right reason. That is all.

[b]Go[/b] - I liked this much more the second time around. Still think it could have been edited down a bit, and nothing would have been lost. Love the music video feel though. When they bust into Steppenwolf's Magic Carpet ride...oh man...wooooo-hooooo!

Sorry I ain't been around lately folks. Our town has gotten hit with a massive ice storm, and power has been out for almost two weeks. And with work, family holiday stuff, and girlfriend, I've been busy. Unfortunately, they are predicting another ice snow storm for tonight, so it may be a repeat of a few weeks ago...and this one is supposed to be bigger than the last. Fun, fun. Welcome to Ohio winter...45 and raining last three days, and tomorrow its supposed to be ice and sleet and snow and freezing rain for the next four days.

Break out the generator, my ass needs to watch some movies.
