Buzzfeed presents 66 Things You Probably Don’t Know About the Beatles.
My guess is you’ll know many but not all.
“I Married a Monster From Outer Space”
I was recently thinking about the cult classic I Married a Monster From Outer Space and wondering why it seldom comes up when folks are talking about monster movies from the 50’s.
As a kid, I Married a Monster From Outer Space was one of my many favorites. It still holds up pretty well.
Maybe I Married a Monster From Outer Space just needs more people talking about it. So to that end… here’s the original trailer!

Frank Miller & Robert Rodriguez on Sin City: A Dame to Kill For
I thought that Sin City: A Dame to Kill For was better than the original Sin City movie, and I liked the original a lot. The fact that A Dame to Kill For isn’t tearing it up at the box office doesn’t surprise, but it sure disappoints me.
My hope is that overseas dollars and dvd purchases make it possible for more Sin City yarns from Miller and Rodriguez. Scott Huver at CBR. interviewed Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez and it’s obvious they feel the same,

Z-View: “Westworld”
Ed Neumeier recently introduced Westworld at the Trailers from Hell site and it reminded me how much I love that movie.
Spoilers lurk below…
Man, I was the right age to love Westworld when I saw it in a theater when it premiered in 1973. I loved the concept of a Disney-like park where adults could vacation and live out their fantasies. Heck, who wouldn’t? Maybe any age is the right age for that.
Yul Brynner was on-point as the Cowboy killing machine. James Brolin was the perfect movie-star-leading-man who would save his nerdy buddy [played by Richard Benajmin] and the day. So when Brolin was gunned down by the gunslinging Brynner and Benjamin was left to make it out on his own, I was shocked. And hooked.
Westworld Rating: 4 out of 5
