This independent Serbian animated film is a very entertaining flick in an excellent budget package. I cannot recommend it highly enough - particularly since it's available streaming on amazon prime at this time.

LT Fish Likes Flicks: The Man Who Stole the Sun - Japanese DVD Review
A truly excellent nuclear terrorism satire from Japan released in .....1979? Good grief? Why did it take me till 2013 to track it down...oh yeah, because it's only on Region 2 Japanese DVD and hasn't been released anywhere else. If you can watch this - definitely worth it.
LT Fish Likes Flicks: The Sword Bearer - Russian DVD Review
The Russians do "Logan" 10 years before "Logan" actually came out. Dark, disturbing, violent, somewhat fantastic - but extremely well filmed and truly Russian to the core. Highly recommended.
LT Fish Likes Flicks: Atomik Circus - Thai DVD Review
Nifty little French horror sci-fi, alien invasion flick....for some reason only available with English subtitles from on DVD from Thailand.
DVD Review - "Crying Freeman" - French Region 2 DVD
Good Lord I'm behind on posting updates here - not that I think anyone watches the reviews here and not at yotube, etc...but heck, if this is the only place you check them out, please let me know with a comment.
Great manga adaptation to live-action by Christophe Gans a few years before he hit the big-time with "Le Pacte des Loupes" (also starring Mark Dacascos).

DVD Review - "In China They Eat Dogs" - US Region 1 DVD
This Danish flick is a hilariously black-crime comedy by the excellent director and writer team-up of Lasse Spang Olsen and Anders Thomas Jensen. Highly recommended - although the metaphysical book-end plot is probably an unnecessarily odd take. I definitely plan on reviewing the follow-up "prequel" film "Old Men in New Cars" in the future.
DVD Review - "The Piano Tuner of Earthquakes" - US Region 1 DVD
A unique, operatic, dream-like film. Haunting with shades of melancholy, dread...and stop-motion animation.
Worth checking out as a rental - but a little of a slow-burn.

DVD Review - "Evil Aliens" - German Region 2 DVD
A little belated updating this site, but posted on youtube on schedule.
An entertaining, gory little alien invasion flick: Jake West's "Evil Aliens".

DVD Review - "Jade Warrior" - UK Region 2 DVD
Sooo, some of my technical glitches with youtube appear to have been cleared up a little. We'll see if things hold.
This is a pretty unique entry - a Finnish/Chinese hybrid fantasy Wuxia flick. Pretty entertaining and definitely worth a rental, but not as solid in the fight scenes as a more traditional Chinese flick. Huge points for originality though.

DVD Review - "Before the Devil Knows You're Dead" - US Region 1 DVD
Had a few editing issues this week - slowly getting more comfortable with the software, etc.
Sidney Lumet's final film gets my highest recommendation!

Since the first capsule review, I've watched another 4 films in the programming series. All recommended.

Panique (first time view)
Eyes Without a Face (own BR)
Alphaville (own DVD)
Links to all flicks on the YT video page.
DVD Review - "Tears For Sale" - Australian Region 4/2 DVD
A little behind on keeping this blog up to date. Stand by for a few posts in short order.
Great movie - lousy DVD presentation (my version or identical UK R2/R4 DVD), and sadly no better presentation available with English subtitles right now. Available via Amazon UK.

Blu-Ray Review: "I Am A Hero" - Korean "A" release
My first review on the channel - a discussion and review of the Japanese zombie movie "I Am A Hero" - based on the Korean special edition blu-ray (Region A coded - viewable on a US player).
Highly recommended! Why hasn't it come out here?
Intro Video
This was a long time in the works, but it feels great to finally get this project off the ground.
