Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade(1989) – 10/10. Another great Indy flick that never ceases to amaze me.
The Cat from Outer Space(1978) – 8/10. A fun and very cheesy B-movie from Disney that gets flack simply because it is taken too seriously. Give it a chance.
Hostel(2005) – 1/10. I tried to give it a second chance but it’s just as bad this tiime around. Eli Roth should quit.
Public Enemies(2009) – 8/10. A little overlong and shot pretty strange but pretty darn good. Depp and Bale are great and Michael Mann’s direction is fantastic.
Invaders from Mars(1953) – 9/10. A superb 50’s Sci-Fi classic. There isn’t much more to say.

Attack of the Puppet People(1958) – 7/10. This movie is usually considered one of the cheesy b-movies. While there were cheesy moments, it really was much better than I thought it would be. It doesn’t belong in the category of films like Plan 9 from Outer Space and Santa Claus Conquers the Martians.

The Brain that Wouldn’t Die(1962) – 4/10. It’s a campy and poorly done film. However, this little film was very enjoyable. I would recommend it but watch it with low expectations.

The Star Wars Holiday Special(1978) – 1/10. Perhaps you’re like me and you want to see this little film to see some of your favorite characters in different scenes. Trust me, you should rethink immediately. This is one of the worst films I’ve ever seen. It’s a complete mess and it has no right to have any connection to the original trilogy.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom(1984) – 10/10. Most people would say that this is their least favorite film of the trilogy. It’s the exact opposite for me. There is something very creepy and sinister about it and it remains my favorite Indiana Jones film to date.

The Amazing Screw-On Head(2006) – 9/10. A really fun and well done animation that blends comedy and horror perfectly. It also has a great voice cast including Paul Giamatti.

X: The Man With the X-Ray Eyes(1963) – 10/10. A classic sci-fi flick that doesn’t get the credit it deserves. The ending is nuts!

Dumpster Baby(2000) – 1/10. Troma has once again created one of the worst films I recall seeing. They really need to stop trying.
