Hulk STILL Rules!
"Those guys aren't U.N."
This movie is Hogan's best, and dare I say one of the best "Commando"-esque movies out there! It's a funny movie- it just works. Check it out if you can find it. Good job Hulkster!!

best acting ever !
This is quite possibly the most entertaining movie ever made. The terrible acting, hot babes and IRA villains make this a great movie for those nights when you're wasted and hanging out with all of your buddies. Even though Hogan may be an awful actor, he is still funny as hell.

Hulk Hogan should just stick to wrestling
Man, someone needs to break the news to Hogan that he just cannot act. Aparently someone out there thinks that big guys with big muscles = big movie success (I.E. Arnold Schwarzenegger). The formula worked in Arnold's case. Well, Hulk is no Arnold by any means. Don't waste your time or money renting and please don't even consider buying this, or any Hogan movie for that matter. Now I know alot of people who have meet Hogan (He lives across the bay from Tampa in Clearwater) and they say he is nothing but a class act. Perfect father, husband and gentleman in general. Which is cool. He hasn't let his money go to his head, but he obviously hasn't spent any on acting lessons either.

Just Like Pro Wrestling
This movie is like professional wrestling - bad acting, lots of action, mindless and also entertaining. Plus it stars the wonderul Cyndy Preston. Check it out if you want a guilty pleasure.

All I can say is LAME
This has got to be one of the worst movies I have ever seen. It should be regulated to only be allowed to be played on public access channels. I think I became even dumber just from watching this. I guess I should expect that from any movie that Hulk Hogan is in :) ... Read more

For Sci Fi Lovers Only
Yep! It's me again. You must think all I do is sit around and watch movies. You're right. In a stressful job this is the best therapy. At work I earn every penny of my salary. At play (home) I indulge in my love for film.

So what did I think of the Science Fiction thriller "Habitat"? It's definitely for Sci Fi folks...only. It is a bizzarre tale of what happens when the ozone layer is destroyed and mankind must shield itself from the microwave effect of sunlight.

So why is it called "Habitat"? An obsessed scientist and his beautiful and sexy wife, create their own environment inside the confines of their home...a vegetation filled fantasyland of plants and flowers that literally ooze with life.

This one plays out like an expanded episode of "The Outer Limits"...but it is definitely "R" rated for the seductive passions of mom and girlfriend. Quite bizzarre. A definite 8 on my 10-scale for Sci Fi. Many people did not like this flick. I was intrigued and thoroughly entertained. A great Friday Night flick...in early November...alone in my own HABITAT. Paul

Be Careful of Growing Things Indoors
I had a pleasant surprise after seeing the video Habitat. The surprise was that it was quite well done (no pun intended) and rather uplifting. I have since had to add the DVD to my collection.

The Earth's ozone layer has been completely destroyed. People stay indoors and only dare to venture out at night. But one scientist is looking to bring back the greenery, but indoors. Combining fungi and various plants, the scientist hopes to create a new ecosystem. Runaway failures have forced him and his family to be on the run. At his latest location an underground pocket of water causes a disaster in the basement lab and the organisms mutate and spread through the house. The scientist becomes infected with the new organisms and dies (or so it seems).

As the new ecosystem gains more control of the house, it is learned that the scientist is not dead, but has been transformed into an energy-like state. In this state he is able to attack people and make them immune to the sun's burning rays. But eventually the authorities catch up and try to stop the ecosystem. While they manage to destroy quite a bit, they are unsuccessful at stopping this new hope for the world. Man will no longer have to huddle in the dark and rely on artificial foods.

I really enjoyed this one. I was expecting some fun schlock but found higher quality lurking in the cheesy box. The necessity of camera angles and visibility make the sun shades look rather inefficient but all in all quite well done.

Intelligent Sci-Fi
Okay, here's my theory of why so many people don't like this movie: Perhaps someone hears about the three nude scenes (don't forget the science lady who's clothes get ripped up just right)plus some nice see-through outfits. So they're thinking, Hey! there's no good T&A flicks on Cinemax tonight, so let's go get that movie! They go rent it, and lo and behold, it actually has this really deep story that lays on the science pretty heavily, where you have to be very alert and somewhat intelligent to understand everything the characters are talking about. Well, if you're just watching it for a few nude scenes, then you're going to be really upset and disappointed with the rest of it!
This movie is very well thought out, the special effects are very convincing (the house really does give you the creeps), the script is beautifully written,and the actors pull it off splendidly. I love some of the lines in this movie, such as when Clarissa (Alice Krige) tells the bully that comes into the plant-infested house, "Young man, you don't go barging into the animal den. You may end up on the wrong side of the food chain." Another favorite line is "Through the bonds of matrimony, copulation is no longer fornification. It's procreation." These aren't direct quotes-I'm going from memory. Anyway, this is indeed one of those forgotten gems in which a small budget was used to make a great piece of work, much like The Wraith or Sleepwalkers (another with Alice Klige at her best). Give this movie a try when you're in the movie for some serious, yet highly entertaining sci-fi that really makes you think.

Redeemed only by the nudity
Yup, Alice Krige and Laura Harris showing their gorgeous bods is the "best" thing about this film.
There's really not a whole lot to say about a film that seems like it was probably originally an exciting-sounding concept to its creators, but ended up being somewhat....blah. I'm not sure how they could have pulled off a film in which a family's house turns into a living jungle, and the Dad turns into some sort of weird creature which can break down into little green molecules and fly around because of his science experiments. The neighbors who dislike them get killed trying to put a stop to the house's growth. Okay. BUT...
Laura goes for a nice skinny-dip, which makes this essential viewing for any Celeb skin collector.

I want the two hours I wasted on this back
My first impression of Habitat was that this was gonna be a really underrated and overlooked sci-fi gem, but the end results are one of the worst movies I have ever seen. The storyline is intriguing and interesting, but the screenplay and direction are overly sloppy, not to mention that Balthazar Getty and Tcheky Karyo are wasted in their roles, if they're acting talents were better used, this movie might have been not so bad. One good quality though, there is some nice T&A, and I never realized how hot Alice Krige was until I saw this, but other than that this movie is a waste. ... Read more

Suspenseful & Excellent Plot
How to get a murderer behind bars even though he has already been acquitted? This is a great movie about the triumph of justice in the case of two murderers who are going to jail for each other's crimes. This movie will keep you at the edge of your seats, for you won't know until the very end how it's all going to end up.

Great Sunday afternoon movie!
I watched this movie this afternoon, & loved it. Its titlewas "Twist of Fate," & thinking it was the annoyingSteve Martin movie, I almost flipped the channel. I'm glad I didn't!

The star of the movie, actress Maedchen Amick, was honestly what kept me watching. However, the villain in the movie looked to me like a mixture of Bill Maher & David Caruso. Apparently, it was filmed in British Columbia. Overall, I'd say the movie was pretty decent... ... Read more

Funny!
Great movie. Funny. This teenage boy lives with his 'rents and a little bro, puts up with a teacher from the oppisite of heaven, and has this major obsession with monsters. He has daydreams sometimes of monster movies with him and his brothe rin them, and sometimes his best friend. The kid's dad dies early in the movie, and (a couple months?) later his friends take him to a carnival to get his mind off of it. At the carnivel, the kid sees the "real" Frankienstien's monster. Later, the carnival packs up and moves out, but accidently leaves behind the frankienstien. The kid statches it, and decides he has to try and make it come alive as a kinda rememberance to his father. Does the monster come to life in the end? you gotta see it to believe it.

Still not quite interested? It's got RYAN GOSLING in it! A shot of him in black & white! If he was the main charecter, I'd give it 5 stars, but anything with Ryan has to have at least 4 stars :)

Clever, touching &entertaining; a treat for monster lovers
For those of us who grew up with cinematic monsters, Frankenstein and Me is not only a poignant trip down memory lane, but a validation of secret childhood wonder-feelings that monsters do exist and, if one believes strongly enough, anything is possible. Director Bob Tinnell and his crew (filming exteriors on the very edge of the Mojave desert in Victorville, California while shooting the interiors in Montreal, Canada) have put their heart and soul into this production, creating beautiful, finely detailed sets and scenarios that stand as loving homages to such films as Frankenstein, The Wolf Man, Brides of Dracula and Night of the Living Dead. Though the main character is 12 years old, don't be fooled into thinking Frankenstein and Me is just a "children's film." As Tinnell put it, this is not so much a kid's movie as a fan's movie. Clever, touching and entertaining, Frankenstein and Me is tailor-made for every monster-lover whose heart has remained true to his or her childhood dreams. ... Read more

Great thriller for kids over 8!
I saw this movie previewed before an audience of over a hundred school kids. By the middle of the movie they were cheering the heroine and totally engrossed in the action. Parents and kids will both enjoy the suspense, and the girl who plays the lead is great.

"It's not good or bad, it just is."
Well, if you are looking for a good movie to make fun of, this is certainly it. The plot is rather ridiculous, and lacks realism to the max. Somehow a plane is struck by lighting, and this destroys several control components, and injurs the pilots. Somehow, the lights and radio are still functional, but a hole has been ripped in the side of the plane. But it's a good thing that the hole only sucks things out at oppoutune moments, but allows the girl to walk by without flying out of the plane on several occasions. And it's a good thing she has a cell-phone on board, for when the radio mysteriously explodes. And since there was no "do not attempt these stunts at home" disclaimer, I think I'll try jumping off the back of a refueling plane onto the landing gear of a nearby plane, hopefully suffering no personal injury, despite the high velocity at which I would be traveling.

Yes, a bad movie, but definitely worth seeing, it's a good laugh.

Oh yeah, and the box looks a whole lot like the box for Turbulence, another awesomely bad movie.

Not Just Any Airplane Movie!!!!!
Okay, yes you have people flying in a plane and all of a sudden something happens, but this in not your ordinary airplane movie nor is it your ordinary DVD. Elisha Cuthbert (Are You Afraid Of The Dark) stars as Nicole, a 13-year-old spoiled daughter of parents who own a software company. On her way to her parent's convention, the plane she is traveling in with two of her relatives gets hit by lightning, knocking the pilots and everyone on the plane oncouncious except for her, and not to mention, making a hull-breach in the plane. Now it is up to Nicole to, of course, take matters into her own hands. She has many helpful tools and air-tower support to survive. Will she make it? You will never know unless you buy this DVD now from Amazon.com! This unique DVD comes in a very unique jewel case which is thinner than any case I have seen and saves space on the shelve. Upon inserting the DVD, the main menu has tons of action immediately. All the scene selections are displayed in full movie motion so you can easily see what you need to jump to without the hassle of guessing. Excellent movie score. Great acting Elisha!

AIR(port 1975) + Speed (2) = Airspeed
Not much new here. It's all been done before. The title says it all. Same plots, for the most part. You're better off getting Airport 1975 and, if you must, Speed 2. Good for an afternoon popcorn movie though. Just make sure you have enough to keep you occupied.

Are you all joking?
they should put this movie on mystery science theatre. must have been the funniest movie to make comment at i've ever seen. it had the most ridiculous plot. how come they didn't bring any profesionals in to help out. instead the air traffic controler guides her in. yeah, this is a keeper. be lookin for it on next year's oscars. ...

Forbidden Love-A quirkish must view
If you are gay or lesbian, young or old, this is a must see movie. If You are older than 45 than you may remember some of the stylin going on. If you are younger than you should be able to appreciate a stroll down memory lane of lesbian and gay culture. A MUST SEE. I enjoyed it very much.

Chapeau!
A must see movie for all gay people and others....

This is an 'excellent' documentary about how it was to be lesbian in the 50's and 60's. These women are facinating and they sure got my attention all the way. It really makes you realise how easy we have it these days...

All the ladies in the movie are great and all have quite different and interesting stories to tell. The minie movie is a good addition, but the magic would still be there without it.

In my opinion, this is on top of my list of Gay movies, however, it would be great if they would get it out on DVD!

Cheers
Isabelle

Your best buy this year.....
This is a wonderful, insightful, creative documentary that is without equal. It's a must see for all young lesbians! And anyone interested in 'The love that dare not speak it's name'.

Comprised of a series of interviews with lesbians who came out in the 50's and 60's, linked together by a 'dime store novel' style drama that ends the right way. The women interviewed speak with candour, humour and sometimes sadness about their lives in a world that could barely tolerate the independent woman let alone lesbians. Buy it you won't regret it.

Don't Let the Cover Fool You
I was very disappointed in this film. I did not realize when I purchased it that it was a documentary. The whole film revolved around aging lesbians and what they went through in the 50's and 60's. Would of been much more entertaining if most of the women interviewed weren't mostly butch. Actual footage of that by-gone era with a broader range of women would have been welcomed and preferred. The mini scenes with the two young women were the only interesting part of this film and probably comprised 5 minutes total. I applaud all of the women that have paved the way and made life easier for todays lesbians. However, the movie portrayed these older women with a lot of hard past relationsips, which was a bit depressing for my taste.

Movie magic
The people are magical, and the way it's put together adds another layer of magic. Sure, you learn a little something about one of the long-ago Lesbian subcultures, but more to the point, you get a new picture of what it means to be an Earthling. A must see. ... Read more
