I remember seeing this waaaay back when it appeared on (VHS) video in the late eighties (early nineties) and was eager to see how it stood up twenty-odd years after its release. And it still kinda works. The plot is basic, to say the least, but sufficient. A killer cop is roaming the streets...

Trashy movies were on the agenda for me this weekend, but I kept getting sucked into actual quality films like this 2007 Korean offering from the Jung brothers.

Ahh… more monster mayhem! After watching the goodness that is Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack, I couldn’t help but want more of ‘Big G’. Godzilla vs. Biollante is definitely more of a dark, proper storyline, Godzilla movie. After Godzilla’s last attack, scientists have managed to obtain some of Godzilla’s cells...
