Julie Adams

Bob Barker, Frances Bay

Universal Studios, 1997

You Mean This Is Not An Instructional Video For Golf?
I actually went to a driving range and tried the running swing...I think the club went farther than the ball. O yeah, the DVD review. This is one of the classics you can pull out and watch once or twice a year, and it doesn't get stale. The humor is never ending ...

Creature From the Black Lagoon

Richard Carlson, Julie Adams

Universal Studios, 1992

MY FIRST MONSTER FILM.
This was my first "monster" film. I can remember the stir that it caused when it was first released and remember that my mother would not allow me to attend. Now telling an ten year old boy that there is "forbidden fruit" at the local cinema, and telling him that ...

Seekers (2pc)

Randolph Mantooth, Edie Adams

Universal Studios, 1998

1970s Historical Mini-Series don't get better than this one!
Okay, I bought this mini-series on VHS to add to my very extensive collection of all-things Randolph Mantooth. I was pleasantly surprised by the depth of the story. (But Randy still looks great and acts great through the entire thing!). It's too bad they just don't ...

The Heidi Chronicles

Jamie Lee Curtis, Tom Hulce

Turner Home Entertainment, 1997

"I don't have a life. I'm expendable."
Heidi Holland, with her degrees from Vassar and Yale and a Fulbright in England under her belt, opens this film lecturing on art history, showing fine portraits of women, painted by women artists who are virtually unknown, though their work is as good as that of the ...

Francis Joins the Wacs

Donald O'Connor, Julie Adams

Universal Studios, 1995

Stargazer
When i watched this, I was pleasantly surprised to find it was still as funny as I remembered it to be. When I was younger, I was a fan of the Francis films, and watched whenever they came on TV back in the Fifties.When I found this one,it was like discovering an old ...

Commando

Arnold Schwarzenegger, Rae Dawn Chong

20th Century Fox, 1997

Arnold at his best
This is the ultimate action movie that defines the genre. If you are looking for explosions, gunfire, and hilarious one-liners, then this is the right movie for you. Commando came before Predator, and many elements of Predator probably derived from the success of ...

Westward the Women

Robert Taylor, Denise Darcel

MGM/UA Home Video, 1994

Westward the Women and the pioneer spirit
I first saw this movie a long time ago, before cable. I was a young girl then. This movie FINALLY gives women a place in the movement west. Most history books and movies make women of that era look like a bunch of pansies! Westward the Women depict women in a true ...

Cory Everson's Total Body Workout

Richard Devon, Betsy Duncan

Atlantic / Wea, 1994

The best workout video ever.
I am a jogger from Minnesota and I needed an exercise tape for inside when the weather prevents me from jogging. I have just placed an order for my second Cory Everson's Total Body Workout as I am fearful that my first one will wear out. If inside exercise generally ...

Private War of Major Benson

Charlton Heston, Julie Adams

Universal Studios, 1997

Great Comedy classic with Sal Mineo
One of the brightest comedies of the 1950's,"The Private War of Major Benson", features brilliant performances by Charlton Heston, Julie Adams, and "scene stealer", SAL MINEO, in one of his first featured roles.Heston is "Major "Bernard Benson. A tough battle-scarred ...

The Haunting

Julie Harris, Claire Bloom

Warner Home Video, 2001

A True Classic
A True Classic When you look at 1963's THE HAUNTING directed by Robert Wise you can see the intellect, craftsmanship and most importantly the subtle emotionally thought provoking energy that went into the making of this film. Director Robert Wise was always the ...

Not for Ourselves Alone - The Story of Elizabeth Cady Stanton & Susan B. Anthony

Sally Kellerman, Ronnie Gilbert

Pbs Home Video, 1999

One of the top 5 best video documentaries I've ever seen...
And I've seen a LOT of video documentaries! I always thought of myself as somewhat well-informed on the topic of American History, but I knew virtually nothing about these two incredible women. Their friendship, the beautiful blending of their unique gifts to create ...

Lover's Knot

Bill Campbell, Jennifer Grey

Cabin Fever, 1997

Cute- but predictable
A very cute film (think first or second date). This was after Jennifer Grey's nose job, so if you are looking for "Baby" from Dirty Dancing you will be disappointed. The very beginning of the film (the first 5 minutes or so) are extemely cheesy, but if you can get ...

Pauly Shore Is Dead

Ashley L. Anderson, Camille Anderson

Fox Home Entertainment, 2005

Please read this Pauly Shore
You might want to reconsider titles like this when you ever get the chance to do another film. In this case, it seems too much like prophecy.

Requiem for a Heavyweight (1962)

Anthony Quinn, Jackie Gleason

Sony Pictures, 1998

Brutalization of innocence
"Requiem for a Heavyweight" is a number one contender for the best movie concerning the "sweet science" that I have ever seen, along with Scorsese's "Raging Bull". Trademark Rod Serling, this powerful little film (originally made for TV) is a remorseless and scathing ...

Six Characters in Search of an Author (Broadway Theatre Archive)

Wil Albert, Laurence Hugo

Kultur Video, 2002

Exploring the various levels of illusion and reality
Luigi Pirandello's 1921 play "Six Characters in Search of an Author" ("Sei personaggi in cerca d'autore") has the deserved reputation of being the first existentialist drama and having a profound effect on later playwrights, especially those practitioners of the ...
