If you enjoy a slow burn horror flick, check this one out. An exercise in tension that leads to an explosive payoff, this found footage film is definitely a cut above the rest of the low budget horror so popular these days. If you missed out on last year’s low budget sci-fi thriller, Area 51, it’s well worth 90 minutes of your time. It’s pure eighties goodness from beginning to end.
Courtney Cox is also there doing an unconvincing impression of someone capable of sympathy. Masters of the Universe is the straight shit, not least because the casting director somehow tricked Frank Langella into playing Skeletor. If you grew up in the eighties, you need no motivation to watch Dolph Lundgren swing a sword in his underpants. For Those With a Taste For the Otherworldly Richard Chamberlain’s inspired performance as iconic fortune hunter Allan Quartermaine makes King Solomon’s Mines well worth a watch, even if you’re one of those Raiders was better naysayers. This 1985 remake of the silver screen classic never really got the respect it deserved. How is it possible that Michael Dudikoff never won an Oscar? I mean, what’s not relatable about *American Ninja’s storyline? A martial arts-trained fella working against his will on an army base in the Philippines runs up against a drug peddler with an army of ninjas who’s hell bent on picking a fight with the American government? I mean, that’s Best Screenplay fodder, at least, right?
While it may be light on political relevance, Missing in Action rollicking adventure is still good fun when you just want to watch men being men while shooting other men. However, if you’re the type of viewer who’s willing to forego a little bit of “oh, I’ve seen that before,” then this gangster thriller starring Cuba Gooding Jr and Harvey Keitel may be just what you’re looking for.Ĭhuck Norris in mid-eighties prime heads up this gun-battling ode to our soldiers in Vietnam (and how we really should have just thrown Chuck Norris and his machine gun at them the whole time). The odds are good that unless you frequent the Action section of Netflix, you’ve likely never heard of Wrong Turn at Tahoe. So, sit back, keep reading, and get ready to stream your face off. From sophomoric comedies to real, live art, the Paramount Vault has you covered. Not to worry, though, the beautiful thing about the Paramount Vault is that the studio really has included something for every kind of film fan. Some of these films are thankfully resurrected gems from the past … others should probably have stayed buried.
