B-MOVIE OF THE MONTH - DEAD END (2003)

Made for less than a million dollars, the slightly obscure Dead End is a chilling little indie you don't want to miss. It might just be the best Christmas horror movie no one ever heard of and every dollar is up there on the screen. It's quirky, weird, funny, bizarre, and scary all at once. Black comedy for sure but much more, this would make a nice double feature with The Perfect Host, another movie we're big on around here. So, grab some eggnog and a snack or two and check out the inimitable Ray Wise with legendary Lin Shaye as they take their family down a wrong turn, what's up with this road? Why doesn't it end? After all, they're just trying to make it to Christmas Eve dessert at Frank's mother's house. Tubi, Plex, Freevee, enjoy! 2.75 stars/2.75

FIRST EIGHT QUENTIN TARANTINO MOVIES ARE PROFILED WITH INTERVIEWS IN THE ONLY OFFICIAL QT DOCUMENTARY KNOWN AS "QT8: THE FIRST EIGHT" (2019)

 

A bit of a puff piece to say the least, QT8: The First Eight nicely chronicles the career of Quentin Tarantino from video store counter geek to hottest filmmaker in the world. Interviews with regular collaborators like Samuel L Jackson and Tim Roth plus other above the line folk make for an interesting watch and both casual and hardcore QT fans should learn something new and interesting about his films. And, in case you didn't know, QT's movie theater the New Beverly Cinema has a blog included in our list. Viva La QT!  2.75 stars/5
