THE LAST CIRCUS

One of the very best films from Spain’s Alex de la Iglesia, and one of the finest-ever clown movies

THE TENANT

This Roman Polanski thriller approaches greatness and, but for some questionable artistic choices, nearly achieves it

TEETH

Solid (if minor) comedy-horror that takes the myth of the Vagina dentata (toothed vagina) and creates something unique and enjoyable

DUMPLINGS

You probably know this film in truncated form as part one of the THREE…EXTREMES anthology. At its full 90-minute length the film has a real sense of style, not to mention a fair amount of gut-level grotesquerie

DEAD AGAIN

Another movie that seemed quite cool upon its initial release in the early 1990s but has lost much of its luster in the ensuing decades
