Q – The Winged Serpent [Q] **** (1982, Michael Moriarty, Candy Clark, David Carradine, Richard Roundtree) – Classic Movie Review 8071
Writer-director Larry Cohen’s 1982 Q – The Winged Serpent [or just plain Q] is a hugely enjoyable, if raggedly made, cult horror thriller, often imaginatively written and directed. It is by turns scary, funny and […]

Jack the Giant Killer *** (1961, Kerwin Mathews, Judi Meredith, Roger Mobley, Torin Thatcher, Don Beddoe) – Classic Movie Review 3725

The 3 Worlds of Gulliver *** (1960, Kerwin Mathews, Jo Morrow, June Thorburn) – Classic Movie Review 3721
Kerwin Mathews makes a dashing, handsome but rather bland hero as Lemuel Gulliver in co-writer/director Jack Sher’s swift 1960 run-through of Jonathan Swift’s 1726 satirical novel Gulliver’s Travels, with the emphasis on the familiar Brobdingnagian […]
