Blood Car

This film will either go down as the most disturbing film I've ever seen. It will also go down as one the best and most original. Blood Car is a great satire on today's ecological and economical concerns.

Mike Brune plays Archie Andrews a teacher and vegan who's working on a wheat germ fueled car in order to circumvent the ever rising gas prices. Due to an accident Archie's blood mixes in with the wheat germ and proves a success. His car grabs the attention of Denise (Katie Rowlett) the crude, overtly sexual, owner of a meat stand. The two soon embark on a wild sexual relationship that depends entirely on his ability to drive him around.

Archie learns that the engine doesn't even need wheat germ and starts killing random people in order to keep the Blood Car running. Unbeknown to Archie CIA agents have been monitoring his every move.

The cast consists of mostly unknown but talented actors. Anna Chlumsky best known for her roles in the My Girl movies make a welcome return as Lorraine, Archie's wheat germ supplier who harbors an obvious crush on him.

The movie is quirky, original, offbeat with a lot of great dialogue. The film is very Troma-like, no glitzy Hollywood cinematography at all. The sex scenes are awkward and at times kind of unpleasant. And if you are looking for a shiny happy ending, don't look here.

If you have read the last paragraph and still are interested this movie is definitely for you.

Highway To Hell

Highway To Hell is not your typical B movie, it's actually a decent movie that entertains the viewer 'til the very end. Charlie (Chad Lowe) and Rachel (Kristy Swanson) are two young lovers eloping to Vegas. However the romantic adventure ends on a lonely road when Rachel is kidnapped by a hell cop and taken to Hell. Now Charlie must fight his fears and temptations in order to save her from becoming a bride of Satan.

This is simply a great movie, the main actors are top-notch with tons of wonderful cameos by Lita Ford, Gilbert Gottfried, and the entire Stiller family. There are a lot of hey it's that guy type of actors in the film as well including Patrick Bergin, Jarrett Lennon, Adam Storke, and Richard Farnsworth that round out the cast.

This movie is a lost classic that only a few who are lucky to stumble upon can experience it's '90s goodness. The true shame of how under appreciated this is that it has a great soundtrack but no way to find it. If you see this movie, watch it, it won't disappoint.
