LT Fish Likes Flicks: Old Men in New Cars - US DVD Review


My review for Lasse Spang Olsen's 2002 "prequel" to 1999's "In China They Eat Dogs".  Violent, funny, irreverent, disturbing - can't recommend this one highly enough.

LT Fish Likes Flicks: The Ugliest Woman in the World - UK DVD Review


This genre-mashup (SF, crime, horror, etc) flick is decent with a good pay-off, even if it plays it a little safe during most of the running time.  Worth a watch if you can track it down.

LT Fish Likes Flicks: Mind Game - Japanese Blu-Ray/DVD "Exclusive Edition" Review


As I've said elsewhere - this is quite possibly the best Anime feature film of the 21st century - but why take my word for it - check it out for yourself.  Available direct from the studio on region-free, subtitled blu-ray (link on my youtube page).  It could be coming to the US soon via gkids (h/t ganriki.org) - but I'm not holding my breath.


LT Fish Likes Flicks: Perfect Creature - Dutch DVD Review


A little behind on keeping this page updated - will work to remedy that in the future. 

In the meantime, check out a NZ/UK collaboration SF Vampire flick with a steampunk vibe.


LT Fish Likes Flicks: Lemonade Joe - Czech DVD Review

Overdue again, but I think this editing worked out fairly well overall - a little more ambitious, slow progress.  This classy, fun, retro-w...
