Seeking new work, Boris Karloff tries his luck in Italy, and plays Don Gaetano in writer-director Roberto Montero’s scrappy and pretty awful 1954 Italian crime thriller. In the unsurprising original story by Carlo Lombardo, an […]

Co-writer/ director Ben Wheatley’s 2016 black comedy action movie is an often funny but disreputable and not very fresh feeling Tarantino-style crime thriller, with a script (by Wheatley and Amy Jump) that looks like they were making […]
Assault on Precinct 13 ***** (1976, Austin Stoker, Darwin Joston, Laurie Zimmer) – Classic Movie Review 4354
A film buff’s delight, this nailbiting, non-stop 1976 action thriller about a gang of delinquents besieging a strangely empty Los Angeles police station deservedly helped to catapault its writer-director John Carpenter into the big time, […]
