Blueghost I'm not a huge fan of this film, and I'll try and be as objective as possible here. I think it's an okay sort of run-in-the-mill movie that was striving for more, and probably hit a few chords with die-hard "watch anything" science fiction fanatics.It's reasonably shot, but has that 1980's Hollywood gloss to it that's somewhat reminiscent of the look for Spielberg's films; lots of light and colors. Which I think is okay, but for some reason the film doesn't hit me as being too interesting. It's interesting enough for what it is, but it's not a film I have in my collection.Quaid and Gosset make for an interesting duo, but Star Wars this movie isn't. The thing that strikes me about this movies is that Gosset isn't alien enough, and how the two characters develop strikes me as being Hollywood being Hollywood. Two different species probably wouldn't get along so well, much less be able to communicate so easily.The other thing is that the film has a very studio look to it. A few location shots out in the desert someplace would have helped this film a great deal, as well as perhaps tweaking the script some. That is to say the premise is interesting enough, but I don't think the film went far enough to make the social rift between two species alien to one another more apparent. I could geek out on it, but I'll refrain.All in all it's okay for what it is, but I think there's a better scifi film to be made.Take that for what it's worth.

Jordan the Defibrillator A very good and touching film which has obvious under currents of racism and hatred. Both actors are very good as they try to adapt and get on with each other, the look is good but a little obvious as sets, not great but good and you do feel for the Draconians as the films nears its climax. Its a nice idea that works well and does highlight how cruel and meaningless racism is, quite emotional and touching as the finale builds tension which gets you rooting for the hero.

washbks One of my favorite all time films. In Today's world of CGI it is probably consider dated by the special effects used.Like other films of its time it rates up there with Running Man with Arnold Schwarzenegger Definitely ahead of it's time with make up and costume design, but very 1980's in comparison with Today's films. But it's message is timeless.. so there goes the spoiler. It the classic story of two people who hate each other because they have been taught by society to do so. Both stranded on the same planet they learn to both Respect and later Honor the other. It is story of how when people talk and get to know each other, barriers dissolve. and worlds change. It could be compared to the social change that was going on in our society at the time it was created. This a story of Human versus Alien but it could be compared to many stories of Today. If you are a Fan of Dennis Quaid, and Louis Gossett Jr. You will love this film.

Zettelhead This movie was made in 1985 by a once great director but it looks like made in 1965 by some cretinous dilettante. Everything just feels badly made up and carried out. The set-design is awful, the sfx are poor, the script is clumsy, implausible and offers no believable development of characters, and the musical score is probably one of the worst ever made! The only thing that is amazing is the acting of L. Gossett Jr. which even works through the massive latex mask.The rest is just... oh, forget about it. It is just unbelievable that those who made it did not die of embarrassment, like I would do.
