~A BUCKET OF BLOOD (1959)~
A Bucket of Blood is an American comedy horror film produced and directed by Roger Corman. It stars Dick Miller, Barboura Morris, Antony Carbone, Ed Nelson and Bert Convy, and is set in the West Coast beatnik culture of the late 1950s. Poet Maxwell H. Brock regularly performs at The Yellow Door café. The dimwitted, impressionable busboy Walter Paisley hears him with admiration. Paisley is in love with the hostess Clara and returns home one night to attempt to create a sculpture of her face. He stops when he hears the meowing of Frankie, the cat owned by his inquisitive landlady, Mrs. Surchart. The cat has gotten itself stuck in Walter's wall. Walter attempts to get Frankie out using a knife, but accidentally kills the cat when he sticks the knife into his wall. Instead of giving Frankie a proper burial, Walter covers the cat in clay, leaving the knife stuck in it. What other shenanigans are in store?

Unexpected Visit - Don't Mess with Chickens!

During today's stream on Rumble while wrapping up, I had an unexpected visitor knock on the door....

Could this be the end? 😵
The rumors of my demise are most likely exaggerated.

Dune 2 Review

Howdy all!

Just wanted to share my thoughts on Dune 2. To give a brief background: I have never read the books and had seen only the David Lynch movie cut and the Alan Smithee cut that someone posted on YouTube (a longer cut using unused footage upgraded as best as the fans behind it could piece it together than many fans of the 1984 herald as the much better version). Alan Smithee is a pseudonym that directors use when they do not want to be associated with a project, and David Lynch had such a terrible experience making the 1984 film, he wants have nothing to do with any other cuts of the film and move away from it, despite it still having his name as director in the original cut.

I truly enjoyed the Dune movie made by Canadian director Denis Villeneuve which came out in 2021. I thought the acting was solid, visually stunning, and a great world full of intriguing politics almost similar to what Game of Thrones had introduced along with interesting ideas how that world operated. Comparing it ...

John Wick Series Review

As every man (and doge) has to do in their lifetime, I watched the John Wick movie series recently. I had never seen any of the movies before somehow, and just watched them since the first 3 were available on Netflix recently.

CHAPTER 1:
This was a great start to the series, and kept to mostly realistic elements compared to the other movies. It's a great tale of vengeance and demonstrates how John Wick (Keanu Reeves) uses anger and pain to his advantage. I enjoyed each character introduced, and glad to see Ian McShane in the series. After watching the Deadwood series on HBO, I can never get enough Ian McShane on screen, no matter what role he's in. The movie ends on a good note where Wick has to decide if he wants to try to live or not.

CHAPTER 2

If the first movie was good, this one was great. The stakes get higher as Wick travels to Rome to fulfill a marker (some blood bond between two people that the other person must fulfill for the marker to be completed) and explains the workings of how the network ...

Godzilla Minus One REVIEW!

Howdy to all you doges and dogs out there!

Just went to see Godzilla Minus One after hearing many people I follow said they enjoyed it. And I must say, it STILL exceeded my expectations! In short, it was phenomenal!

I am not familiar with the recent Godzilla movies (whether made in Japan or America), but this was coming from Japan's Toho movie company who own the rights to Godzilla and distribute the movies within Japan.

The movie is set in 1940s post World War II Japan, and shows the devastation of the war without dwelling too much on the particulars, just enough to get a taste of the disillusionment and confusion after the war. Godzilla seems to have been awakened during WWII. Thankefully, the movie doesn't necessarily define exactly how Godzilla came about, but cleverly implies how he grows in strength to become a threat to Japan.

Unlike the old movies where, to this doge, the best part of the movies is the fellow in rubber suit Godzilla destroying miniature sets, perhaps to hilarity but always a joy to ...
