“Wall to wall action!” they said. “A real story with quality fight scenes worth seeing again and again!”

Thank you, anonymous front cover quote hype man!

A few notes on DEADLY DIAMONDS (1991), the supposed runt of producer Raj Mehrotra’s action litter.

“Worth a cursory look for fans of Tim Thomerson and the late, great Brion James… Michael G. Kehoe’s cut n’ paste direction only intensifies the unshakeable feeling that the film is going through the motions.“

Some words on survival thriller DOMINION (1995):

Squeal Like a Sheep: Dominion (1995)
If you go down to the woods today… You’ll find Matty shrugging his shoulders at a just about passable Deliverance knock-off.

A credit to us all 👏 A legendary achievement! 👏
My @letterboxd.social 2025 review illustrates pretty clearly how I was (juuuuust barely) able to maintain my sanity last year: by watching over 100 David DeCoteau movies, a big chunk of which starred Vivica A. Fox. (Also kind of funny to know you can break the "Hours Watched" thing if you break 1k.)

RIP rockabilly hero and all-round B-movie renaissance man Johnny Legend.

A surname wholly befitting of his status!

Here’s Johnny meeting a sticky end in Schlock Pit fav CHILDREN OF THE CORN III: URBAN HARVEST (1995) — but one of many flicks that benefitted from his quirky cameo appearances.

Maria, You Gotta Shea — Stripped to Kill II: Live Girls (1989)
Matty finds some worth in an eccentric but underwhelming follow-up to a solid gold classic.

Joanna Lumley and the late, great Chris Rea in Michael Winner’s brilliant inept black comedy, PARTING SHOTS (1998).

Absolutely devastating. Him, Bob Mortimer and Chris Kamara are my holy trinity of Boro lads done good.

What incredible tunes he leaves behind though.
