The November Men (1993)
Great Movie for a Low Budget
The Troma team has put out another great low budget, interesting movie. I have learned to respect these guys. Just check out the ending credits; William Grillo's name comes up many times. The plot is very interesting and keeps you guessing until the very end. The story unfolded the way The Game (with Michael Douglas) did with plotline within plotline.
Oh, and Leslie Bevis can pop out of my shower anytime she wants to!!!
The Town That Dreaded Sundown (1976)
Not a Great Movie, But It Brings Back Memories
The first time I saw this movie was in a drive-in theater in the summer of 1976. I was 8 years old and I went with my cousin. We were staying at a cabin at a lake which is open for camping every summer. I don't think I was mature enough to watch a horror movie like this, but I believe this movie planted a seed in me for a love of horror movies. I remember having a very hard time falling asleep that night thinking that there was a killer lurking outside the cabin. The thing that stuck in my mind was that it was based on a true story and the commentary in the film made it feel like a documentary.
I watched this movie again for the second time just weeks ago, and I can see how a young mind could be captivated with this film. The hackles still raised on the back of my neck during some of the suspenseful scenes. The acting is second rate and by today's standards in filmmaking, the movie is not very good. The comedy elements in the movie just don't mesh with the realism portrayed in the commentary and the dramatic scenes with the killer. Although, in watching the movie again, it brought back memories of the good old days.
