‘Lolly-Madonna XXX’ (1973): Atmospheric, violent & senseless Southern cult classic

Strange, hypnotic doom and gloom Southern cult classic, a modern-day Hatfield and McCoy feud underpinned by a violent, fatalistic melancholy.

Trying to post more to my fledgling YouTube channel. I don't really know what I'm doing yet, but check out my recent haul video & sub if you like. Much appreciated! (Link is up there in the description.)

Didn't know if I'd enjoy it, but ABRAKADABRA (2018) does a good job at what it sets out to do - mimic a '70s giallo. Nice, short runtime and a nice Blu-ray package from newcomer @cauldron_films

My first homebrew ColecoVision cartridge: MEAN SANTA, by Chris Derrig & Tim Duarte of 2600 Connection. A nice package with a case & instruction booklet. Looking forward to digging out the console & giving it a play.

I never thought movies like MARTIAL LAW 1 & 2 (1990-1991) would *ever* get a Blu-ray release, let alone the deluxe treatment. But here we are - Cynthia Rothrock in all her HD kung fu glory, thanks to @vinegarsyndrome's Archive line (VSA).

Charlize Theron battles wits with a sadistic Kevin Bacon in TRAPPED (2002), released on Blu-ray by @millcreekent. Review up at MoviesandDrinks.com

First-time watch of this obscurity, THE ELEVENTH COMMANDMENT (1987). Surprise appearance by James Avery (Family Matters, Die Hard)! Released to disc by @vinegarsyndrome

One of my oldest Blu-rays (from 2007), & it still plays fine :) BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID (1969). Good old days of moviemaking with Newman & Redford.

More George Lucas this morning, going back to the beginning: THX 1138. This director's cut version looks like it was shot this morning!

Gave RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK a spin last night. Still rocking the DVD version via the 2008 'Complete Adventure Collection' set. With the new film announced, I'll wait to upgrade at this point. The movie itself? Great fun, & that ending will always be crazy to me!

Enjoyed watching Rutger Hauer in 1989's BLIND FURY for the first time in HD via the new Blu-ray from @millcreekent . My review up at MoviesandDrinks.com

One of my favorite disc releases of 2020, 1989's AMERICAN RICKSHAW is a lost videostore classic! New distributor @cauldron_films knocked it out of the park with this release, directed by Sergio Martino in Miami.
