Though it wasn’t Hammer Studios’ final film, Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell can be considered its swan song, an intelligent, inventive, stylized reworking of the themes that had sustained the series for almost two decades. Dr. Frankenstein has buried his old identity and reigns over an insane asylum as Dr. Victor (Peter Cushing under a flamboyant blond wig in his sixth and final turn as the mad scientist) as if it were a live-parts yard for his continuing experiments. With the help of an ambitious acolyte he builds his latest creature, a hirsute apelike brute stitched together from the asylum’s most promising inhabitants and turned into a sad, tortured slave. The film was shot at the end of Hammer’s glory days, and the budgetary constraints can be seen in unconvincing miniatures and the rather bulky and stiff ogre suit, but the dark, claustrophobic sets create an effectively gloomy atmosphere. Director Terence Fisher effectively pulls out all stops for a marvelous sequence of the creature digging through the asylum graveyard in the middle of a flashing electrical storm, a demonic twist on the iconic gravedigging images that go all the way back to the 1931 Frankenstein. This was the last reunion for Cushing and Fisher, who together gave birth to Hammer’s gothic reign with The Curse of Frankenstein and Horror of Dracula. Fisher retired after finishing the film. –Sean Axmaker

Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning book - this is the story of one of America’s greatest presidents and the First Lady who devoted herself to public service. Winner of 11 Emmy Awards.
First, the movie is about When global warming triggers the onset of a new Ice Age, tornadoes flatten Los Angeles, a tidal wave engulfs New York City and the entire Northern Hemisphere begins to freeze solid. Now, climatologist Jack Hall (Dennis Quaid), his son Sam (Jake Gyllenhaal) and a small band of survivors must ride out the growing superstorm and stay alive in the face of an enemy more powerful and relentless than any they’ve ever encountered: Mother Nature!.

They Were Expendable is the greatest American film of the Second World War, made by America’s greatest director, John Ford, who himself saw action from the Battle of Midway through D-day. Yet it’s been oddly neglected. Or perhaps not so oddly: for as the matter-of-fact title implies, the film commemorates a period, from the eve of Pearl Harbor up to the impending fall of Bataan, when the Japanese conquest of the Pacific was in full cry and U.S. forces were fighting a desperate holding action. Although stirring movies had been made about these early days (Wake Island, Bataan, Air Force), they were gung ho in their resolve to see the tables turned. They Were Expendable, however, which was made when Allied victory was all but assured, is profoundly elegiac, with the patient grandeur of a tragic poem.
“They” are the officers and men of the Navy’s PT boat service, an experimental motor-torpedo force relegated to courier duty on Manila Bay but eventually proven effective in combat. Their commander is played by Robert Montgomery, who actually served on a PT and later commanded a destroyer at Normandy; James Agee called his “the one unimprovable performance” of 1945. In addition to giving it, Montgomery codirected the breathtaking second-unit action sequences (and took over the first unit for a week when Ford broke his leg). John Wayne’s costarring role as Montgomery’s volatile second-in-command initially looks stereotypically blustery, but as the drama unfolds–the death of comrades, a friendship-that-never-gets-to-be-a-romance with an Army nurse (Donna Reed)–Wayne sounds notes of tenderness and vulnerability that will take Duke-bashers by surprise.
They Were Expendable is a heartbreakingly beautiful film, full of astonishing images of warfare, grief, courage, and dignity: the artificial “rainfall” that lashes the beached Wayne as his PT boat explodes in the surf; the glow around a communally improvised dinner for nurse Reed; an old ship-repairer (Russell Simpson, The Grapes of Wrath’s Pa Joad) settling in grimly to wait for the Japanese, with “Red River Valley” as benediction; the propeller spray that hangs over a jungle inlet, like the dust from one of Ford’s cavalry pictures, as the PTs round a bend and disappear into history. This is a masterpiece. –Richard T. Jameson
Personally, I thought Murray Alper was incredible, but wasn’t too impressed with Leon Ames.

Personally, I thought Steve White was incredible, but wasn’t too impressed with Debra Wilson.
First, the movie is about An anonymous note sets off a romantic chain-mail reaction with hilarious results in this letter-perfect comedy with “something for everybody” (The Washington Post). Flirty and hilarious, Secret Admirer is a fast and funny farce where the laughs are unsigned, sealed and delivered. When high school heartthrob Michael (C. Thomas Howell, Red Dawn) receives an unsigned love letter, he assumes it’s from knockout prom queen Deborah-Anne (Kelly Preston, Jerry Maguire) instead of pretty honor student Toni (Lori Loughlin, “Full House”). And when Michael accidentally misplaces the letter, the juicy jottings soon make their way into the hands of the whole neighborhood, touching off a scandalously sexy soap opera of mixed-up motives, mistaken identities and merrily misfired emotions!.
I really enjoyed the performace of Kelly Preston and Kelly Preston. The rest of the cast was solid as well. The cast includes C. Thomas Howell, Kelly Preston, Lori Loughlin, Fred Ward, Dee Wallace (II).
