The Woman in the Dunes movie

Movie Curse of the Devil 1972
Why would you make a werewolf movie with a title that evokes an Exorcist rip-off?
More Waldemar the Werewolf fun has Paul Naschy once again donning the furry costume to bring mayhem on the villagers. Only this time, it is a pretty tired exercise that misses the fun and wacky …

Spiderman The Motion Picture
With great power comes great responsibility. With great movies comes greater ones. This is how I feel about the first Spiderman. I believe this movie moved the caliber of comic book-to-movie projects up a notch.

Ice Age: The Meltdown
Watching Ice Age was fairly decent. Ice Age: The Meltdown wasn’t so great. It was somewhat humorous with Queen Latifah’s character, but it wasn’t that great of a movie. The plot lacked depth and the ending was simple. It was a decent children’s movie, but it certainly wasn’t that …
The Break-Up (movie)

Disney’s The Fox and the Hound (1981)
Just to prove that I really am over 50, I own Disney’s “The Fox and the Hound” on a VHS tape! I play it at least once a week because it’s so cute, but not more often than that because I don’t want to wear out the tape.
