DVD Review THE DEVIL'S ROCK

Don't be fooled by the awesomeness of the cover-art-image-that-doesn't-appear-anywhere-in-the-movie, because The Devil's Rock is still a terrific under-the-radar horror film about Nazis and demons. You like horror? You should really love this.

Highly recommended.

DVD Review ATLAS SHRUGGED PART 1

You have demanded it and now here it is. The screen adaptation of Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand, or at least Part One on DVD. Yeah, I know you had good reason to avoid it in the theater, but now you can get your intellectual on in a big way. Well, maybe a little way. It's a good chance to get a "light on the sauce" taste of what the big meal is all about. Whether there is a there there is strictly a matter of taste.

DVD Review WOODENHEAD

Woodenhead is a dark, trippy alt-fairy tale shot in a very unorthodox manner, one that's comic, tragic, sexual and frightening. And then there's the music. The movie itself would be an easy recommendation for fans of the weird, but to make this a no-brainer this 2-disc set also includes a soundtrack CD.

Highly recommended, if you dare.
