A surreal erotic fantasy about a young woman who checks into a bizarre, labyrinthine hotel. As reality begins to blur with imagination, the film unfolds as a series of fragmented encounters that challenge conventional narrative structure. Rather than focusing on plot, it creates an oneiric atmosphere where desire, control, and voyeurism intertwine. While its pacing may feel disorienting, the film stands out as a curious example of early 1980s European erotic cinema, leaning more toward mood and visual suggestion than explicit storytelling.Read More »

The building of a railroad under tough conditions from searing heat to freezing cold in the Sonora desert provokes clashes of passion and struggles between the engineers and the workers at the campsite. The workers also contend with sudden dust storms that are called the ‘black wind’.

The film explores the dangerous adventures of its hero, a rough figure-of-circumstance trapped by conflicting devotion to his son and his own ambitions, and the hazards of the construction work. A cataclysmic sandstorm splendidly filmed and a spectacular rail crash provide memorable set-pieces in a gradual build-up of tension.Read More »

Terry O’Quinn plays The Stepfather in this intelligent, unsettling chiller. We’d tell you O’Quinn’s character name, but he has so many. You see, O’Quinn has been a stepfather many times over, romancing and marrying widowed women in several different states. After each wedding, everything is blissful — at least, until O’Quinn’s new wife and kids fail to measure up to his notions of perfection. Then he kills them en masse, and moves on to his next victims. Shelley Hack and Jill Schoelen co-star as O’Quinn’s latest wife and stepdaughter, who prove to be yet another disappointment to him. An adroit witches’ blend of Ozzie & Harriet and Psycho, The Stepfather was scripted by suspense veteran Donald E. Westlake. A lesser sequel, Stepfather 2, followed in 1989.Read More »

Great and very gory film about an organization trafficking in green egg-shaped alien life forms. But don’t be fooled cause these are no ordinary future martian omlets; quite the opposite, these eggs, once they get exposed to a certain amount of heat, explode as insanely volatile acid bombs. The fluids they secrete, when they come into contact with living beings, cause them to literally explode from the inside out after only moments of exposure.Read More »
