Mutant Hunt - 1987 - Some Federation bounty hunters learn of super-powerful evil cyborg mutants. The good guys fight mostly with kicks and the bad guys by picking up and squeezing. Many disjointed sequences and things that don't make much sense. The acting and plotting is like a way toned-down Troma flick.  Action sequences have lots of shadows and close-ups. I think they spent about $200 on effects, and less on locations and sets (although some shots are rather impressive.) There is a very interesting depiction of 'futuristic' technology like portable phones and location tracking, and there's a lot of talk about a typical sci-fi drug. The story gets a lot better in the second half. Wardrobe and location is a New York City time capsule in this strong example of the style that inspired Kung Fury. Really cheese. It could be an amazing Nintendo game. This-TV, 2/5

This sounds like another flick perfect for the Theater.

/\ Yes, I think it would be good here.


Deep Space - 1987 - The military loses track of a satellite that contains a "living weapon" and it crashes in LA. Two wiseguy city detectives decide to track it down, despite being told to shove off by territorial feds, who disappear from the story halfway through. How the government would have created this (they refer to it as "the project") or why they put it in space is also never explained. The "weapon" looks like a spikier Alien, and its preferred method of attack is shooting tentacles across the room in close-ups. I can't recommend this at all. Every single thing about it has been done much better in other movies and while there are a couple of cool setpieces and laughable moments, there really isn't any fun to be had here. This-TV, 2/5

Disney's Robin Hood

An epic telling of a classic tale. Wolfgang Reitherman made some very good films during his time at Walt Disney Animation.

5 stars.

Paddington (2014)

A surprisingly well done children's movie with some tidbits thrown in for adults to liven it up. It was pleasantly better than expected, and I recommend it. Paddington himself is lovably awkward in London, but without coming off as an annoying pest. A bit predictable and cliche, but good nonetheless.
3.75/5

I think he was referring to the "Troma" motion picture outfit.
