Movie Reviews of Magic

Movie Review: Very Nice DVD Picture Quality
Summary: 4 Stars

Magic looks very nice on DVD. Solid clean picture quality with original basic mono soundtrack. A pleasant suprise from Dark Sky Films.

Movie Review: IDn't he?
Summary: 1 Stars

This was before Hannibal embarked on a reign of terror, rife with Vintners Quarterly chatter and soap opera stare-downs. Back when he was a shy lad on the stage, slathering his porcine frame with ectoplasm and whipped butter. He couldn't get a date unless he was standing under a palm tree and one hit him on the head.

Could he?

Of course he could. The 1970s were a very dull decade: shoehorns, wood pannelling, corduroy sleeves and teddy bear-skinned chairs that blocked the ceiling. A greasy guy traipsing about with a goofy-faced doll that's always talking through YOUR CREEPY DIFFERENT VOICE! to Miss Pennybottoms is at least not boring, she presumes as she kisses his wooden lips.

What is Jason Voorhees if not a violent, sex-crazed manifestation of Christian guilt? The romantic, ritualistic spilling of blood. Think "The Passion of the Christ" (does he need a "the"?) in the guise of a dishwater clown. There's not a lot of blood here, but we DO find out why Rocky's coach Mickey Goldmill suffered that fatal heart attack in Rocky III.

Movie Review: "The Silence of the Dummies"
Summary: 1 Stars

This is overall a real hoot! Anthony Hopkins is superb! "Fats" the dummy steals lots of the scenes.

The question that crosses my mind is which is more frightening the Dummy or Ann Margarett trying to act!

Burgess Meredith is great as the manager. One point of interest is the horrible score by Jerry Goldsmith. He throws in a great harmonica riff when we see "Fats", but during some of the more "romantic " scenes the music is so cloying it would make Yanni blush.

Don,t miss the extras where they talk with the real "vent" that worked with them on the movie.

If you like movies that are a bit "outside" this is a must have for any collection.
