2019: The Year in Bedlam
What is there to say about 2019? A lot, albeit not on the movie screens
1988: The Year in Bedlam
I really hate to keep repeating myself in my year-end summations, but I just have to say it: 1988 was an abysmal year for movies
1989: The Year in Bedlam
Here, in the latest edition of my Year in Bedlam film listings, we leave the nineties behind and enter the eighties, which many claim was the worst decade in cinema history
CALAMITY OF SNAKES
This Hong Kong monstrosity may be the ultimate killer snake movie
NIGHTS WITH SASQUATCH
One of the more curious products of the horror boom, NIGHTS WITH SASQUATCH is a paperback original from 1977
NIGHT OF THE GRIZZLIES
This factual account of a double bear attack in the summer of 1967 was a groundbreaker in its day
GREMLINS 2: THE NEW BATCH
A novelization that replicates the unfettered spirit of its Joe Dante directed source
RED RANGE
This graphic novel, initially published in 1999, would appear to be the wild card among Joe Lansdale’s comic work
OLYMPUS
This is kinda fun, a whiz-bang graphic novel about a bunch of goofball college students on a research project in the Aegean Sea.
NIGHT OF THE CRABS
I can’t imagine how anyone could not get a kick out of this novel’s premise of giant flesh-eating crabs rampaging through a British seaside community.
