"Jeff Gelb, Michael Garrett. Get a grip. She shouldn't do so much. But she couldn't
help herself. Ben was there. She'd never seen him. They'd never really spoken.
He was a man reduced to shared brain waves, distilled to sensation. But that didn
't matter, because when her pager went off, she ran for her rig — and because
she was a doctor, she always had an excuse to leave ... If she sat herself down
the way she would a patient, she'd ..."
"Deranged: Ezra's good at making friends... into home furnishings! Based on the same terrifying story that inspired Psycho, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and The Silence of the Lambs, this hauntingly scary film chronicles the grisly exploits of a rural necrophiliac and murderer! Brace yourself for a "solid horror story" (Variety) that's guaranteed to make you bite your nails... because if you don't, Ezra will! Motel Hell: You really ar ..."

Die Geschichte ist einer chinesischen Fabel entnommen und erzählt von einem Mädchen, das sich als Mann verkleidet, um ihrer Familie und ihrem Land zu helfen.

"Remake d'un classique du film fantastique de Jacques Tourneur, avec Simone Simon dans le rôle-titre, La Féline aurait pu n'être qu'une bonne série B sans la personnalité de son réalisateur, Paul Schrader. Scénariste de Martin Scorsese – Taxi Driver, À tombeau ouvert – ou Brian de Palma – Obsession – ce cinéphile invétéré – auteur d'une thèse sur Dreyer, Bresson et Ozu – passe à la réalisation en 1978 avec une comédie sociale, Blue Colla ..."
"A mercenary with a chip on his shoulder, Karl Thomasson (Treat Williams) poses as a teacher at an inner-city school to exact revenge on the gang members who murdered his brother. As Thomasson investigates the killing and tries to keep his estranged niece, Anya (Susan Pratt), safe, he begins to realize how dysfunctional and violent the urban school environment has become. Even with support from fellow soldier Joey Six (Angel David), Thom ..."
"The delicate issue of student discipline becomes dangerously pointed when a vengeance-seeking mercenary (the perennially underrated Treat Williams) sews a couple of tweed patches onto the elbows of his flack jacket and proceeds to add a few chalk outlines to the blackboard jungle. Although the premise of this intermittently entertaining sequel can't match the goofy novelty of the 1996 original, it does sport a couple of effective action ..."

"Solid entertainment from a new group of Disney animators. The story source is a Chinese fable about a young girl who disguises herself as a man to help her family and her country. When the Huns attack China, a call to arms goes out to every village, and Mulan's father, being the only man in the family, accepts the call. Mulan (voiced by Ming-Na Wen, sung by Lea Salonga) has just made a disastrous appearance at the Matchmaker and decide ..."

"Paul Schrader, the director of American Gigolo, brought a similar kind of sexual chic to this explicit horror movie. A remake of the beautiful, haunting 1942 Cat People, this version takes off from the same idea: that a woman (Nastassja Kinski), a member of a race of feline humans, will revert to her animalistic self when she has sex. Arriving to meet her brother (Malcolm McDowell) in New Orleans, she finds herself disturbed by his sexu ..."
"Though Bob (Benjamin) Clark made his mark on Hollywood with films as diverse as Porky's and A Christmas Story, he began his career with this imaginative zombie tale. Alan Ormsby (who also wrote Paul Schrader's remake of Cat People and directed the cult horror film Deranged) penned the script and stars as Alan, a flamboyant theater director who brings his company--whom he condescendingly refers to as his "children"--to a rotting graveyar ..."
"A war buddy's daughter is savagely attacked by some drug-dealing football team members. It's up to the Substitute (Treat Williams) to enter the halls of ivy and clean up the campus his own way."
