Air Collision is a delicious slice of pure, disaster movie schlock…and I’m talking about the good kind. From frame one, when we first hear about the new A.C.A.T system, which is designed to eliminate human error in the world of air traffic control, we know that the nice, stock characters aboard Americana Blue 23 are as screwed as David Duchovny at an abstinence convention.
No sooner can you say “Urkel”, and Reginald VelJohnson, the dad from Family Matters, is dealing with some awfully serious stuff! A solar storm wipes out the air traffic control system and Air Force One and the passenger jet airliner are locked on a collision course…thus, the ominously accurate title, Collision Course. Damn! Suddenly, old Carl Winslow’s dealings with that pesky Urkel are starting to feel awfully petty. Sheesh!
Air Collision wastes no time in ramping up this pot boiler to a peak tension. it takes your traditional, disaster-themed thriller and breaks it down to it’s most basic elements. The box art touts it as “an action-packed rollercoaster ride of destruction in the tradition of Executive Action and Die Hard 2“, but with probably one-twentieth of the budget, Air Collision barrels forward like a punch-drunk sailor, wasting no time with Hollywood trappings and quickly makes those big-budget movies it’s bitches. Bam! That’s right, Executive Action, you just got served! How you like me now?
Written and directed by Liz Adams, Air Collision crashes on to dvd March 27th. Snag up a copy or two from The Asylum, or regret it for the rest of your life! -Scotch
Hey! I’m still here despite the lack of updates recently. I know for a fact that Play-Mate of the Apes has been sent to the printers so it’s just a matter of time until it’s in your hands, ya’ bunch of monkeys. Last I heard, the comic will be coming out in a couple of different versions. This is very exciting to me, seeing as I’m such a huge fan of the Alternative/Seduction Cinema movies. It is going to be coming out as a regular, nationally-distributed, comic book so you should be able to find it at your local comic dealership. Also, it’s going to be released in the new dvd package that will include a movie poster as well. Keep checking back for more updates as well as the 
THREE Snow White movies? Really?! In all honesty, I am not the type of guy you would generally catch watching films with a classic fairy tale theme, with the exception of The Princess Bride, of course…and who doesn’t like that one, right? I mean, Andre the Giant alone is worth the price of admission. So naturally, I’m not all that excited about the various Snow White movies that are coming to theaters. While Mirror Mirror featuring Julia Roberts boasts a romantic-comedy take, Snow White and the Huntsman featuring Kristen Stewart appears to be a darker, more action-filled version. Imagine my surprise when I caught Grimm’s Snow White on dvd, only to find a story that’s filled with awesome, giant, monsters and a wicked queen who is so deliciously evil she makes Elizabeth Bathory look like Mother Theresa.
This is a great, creepy, twist on a childhood classic that gives the old Disney version a brutal, well-deserved, pummeling. Think of it as your favorite fairy tale as told by the creative effects team at the SyFy channel. The story starts out with the king getting killed by these ferocious, dinosaur-sized, reptile beasts. The queen, played by Jane March of Clash of the Titans, takes over the kingdom and tries to kill her stepdaughter, Snow White. All of the benchmarks of the original tale are still in tact but now we have kick-ass reptilian creatures, and numerous dwarves that are worthy of Lord of the Rings.
