Shinobi: Heart Under Blade movie review

Based on the novel by Futaro Yamada, Shinobi: Heart Under Blade (aka: Shinobi 2005, nothing to do with the SEGA game) is a classic tale of star crossed lovers in Tokugawa era Japan.

[TRAILER] . Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning

Thoughts on the proposed Gay Marriage Ban

Female Prisoner 701 Scorpion: Grudge Song // movie review

The last Scorpion entry starring Meiko Kaji is certainly the least of the films. Moving forward sans director Shunya Ito, this installment finds Sasori on the run from yet another gung-ho police inspector, facing threat of execution, and falling in love. That’s right, Sasori in love. When the film starts the police are hot [...]
