Director George Pan Cosmatos’s game, high-spirited 1979 British war caper is endearingly daft hokum from Lord Grade just before Raise the Titanic sank his company, ITC, with an all-star cast in a World War Two […]
Horror Island ** (1941, Dick Foran, Leo Carrillo, Peggy Moran, Fuzzy Knight, John Eldredge, Walter Catlett) – Classic Movie Review 6139
Director George Waggner’s run-of-the-mill 1941 Universal comedy chiller is set in a fog-swathed, spooky castle where B-movie actors are cast as daffy adventurers who are bumped off as they search for treasure. There are some […]

Director Jon Turteltaub’s 2007 is more of the same as the 2004 original National Treasure, except considerably slacker, far less enjoyable and much worse quality-wise, though it’s still full of fast-paced, escapist action. Nicolas Cage is back […]
