Master of the World (1961)

20,000 leagues OVER the sea!

With exception to Vincent Price, this film was horribly miscast, and where it needed the budget, they made the weird decision to NOT use it. The visual FX could use a LOT of work. The Albatross itself looks pretty good, but the terrible blue screen and stock footage just throws you out of the world.

Charles Bronson was never accused of over empting, and that is no different here. Fun to see him so young, but is he excited? Angry? In love? Who’s to say?!

Worth watching as a Price vehicle, but outside of that, it is an easy skippable film.

(And what is with the song at the end?!)

984: Prisoner of the Future (TV Movie 1982)

This little known Canadian made for tv thriller is available on TUBI.

I’ve seen it a few times now. I find it to be really well done and interesting.

Very reminiscent of the ITV show THE PRISONER but turned up a few notches.

Curious if anyone else has seen it and what you think of it.

We are going to be discussing it on the show soon. Should be an interesting discussion!

Scream (1981) Yes, 1981!

Awful film! LOL Script wasn’t even finished when they started filming and the it feels like everyone is waiting around to find out happens. The set up is somewhat promising, but the execution and the cast inclusion is absolute nonsense.

Terrible score, written by award winning TV score writer, Joseph Conlan. You’re just waiting for Simon & Simon to pull up in the Power Wagon to save the day.

Cast is filled with several old retired western stars, and Woody Strode shows up. (Likely on set for a day)

The Lost Room (TV Mini Series 2006)

I remember watching this when it first aired, and I remember liking it.

I recently stumbled on it again on TUBI. I have not started it yet, and I’m a little nervous about what I’ll think of it now.

Hoping it holds up.

Anyone given this a go recently?
