THE NORLISS TAPES ( 1974)

This is another pretty good Dan Curtis gem, from the 1970s era of Tele-films , though unfortunately, the film ends on a cliffhanger .

It was apparently meant as a pilot, with the Norliss character having further adventures, much like Kolcheck: The Night Stalker TV Series from around the same period.

However, nothing came of it , so , alas, the story is a one and done horror film.

Still, the film works as a stand alone , leaving the future to the imagination of the audience.

Playing our protagonist , is Roy Thinnes , who had previously starred in the Sci-Series The Invaders in the 1960s .

His costar is the always awesome Angie Dickinson of Police Woman, and of films such as Rio Bravo and Dressed To Kill.

The Norliss Tapes scared the **** out of me as a kid! Nick Dimitri (I believe) looked creepy as hell as the undead husband!

Ballerina

Takes a little while to get going, but once it gets in gear it's a blast. A great addition to the John Wick franchise - hope the sequel happens. 7.5/10

 

[Dave McFly]

Roofman while it was billed as a comedy in the trailers and there was a lot of humor in it, there is a lot of emotional drama in it, Tatum did a good job in this I was surprised how good he was in this.

 

[Joe Von Zombie]

Worth watching for Marlon Wayans' unhinged performance alone. It's not particularly subtle or original with its messaging but I had fun with it. 7/10

 

[BlackFox]

Possibly the worst script put to film, dumb, tone deaf and total lack of self awareness. Throw in some extra bad CGI and "jokes" and you have something truelly worthy of hate. The only thing this Predator was possibly killing is the franchise itself. Thank god for Trachtenberg for pulling it out of the fire.

SATAN'S TRIANGLE ( 1974)

This film of the week from 1974 stars Vertigo's Kim Novak , 15 years after that iconic Hitchcock classic.
Her costar is Doug McClure , who had been a tv and film actor throughout the 50s through at least the 1980s.

I remember him from my childhood from his role as the Human Dad of his teen alien daughter in the 1980s TV Sitcom , Out Of The World.

It also features Jim Davis who would become iconic in the role of The Ewing Patriarch ,Jock, in the TV series Dallas , just a few years after this aired.

Satan's Triangle is another slow burn , which ultimately pays off at the end , though, It does feel a bit too long for a story ,which could have been told in a 30 minute segment of a Night Gallery, style horror show , or a anthology special that Dan Curtis would have made.

Nevertheless there is a twist I didn't see coming so , in the end the film does pay off.
