GUARDIAN-(2000)-This movie sucks! It starts during the Gulf War and has to do with a demon and a child "chosen by God" to stop him. Pink cocaine like power (called "Chaos") makes everyone who snorts it go crazy. Mario Van Peebles and James Remar are cops trying to figure it all out. If they can't how can the audience?? Rapper Ice-T shoots a woman in the head and gets beat up.
Director John Terlesky helmed other "classics" like CHOPPING MALL, CRAZY PEOPLE and VAMPIRELLA.
THE STRANGLER-1963-This black & white thriller stars Victor Buono as a lab technican driven to strangling young nurses by his nagging, domineering wheelchair bound mother (future Grandma Walton Ellen Corby). A milk drinking detective trys to catch him while Russ Bender portrays a psychiatrist who explains what a fetish is. Buono (an underrated actor) gives an intense performance as the cool headed killer. Also with Wally Campos & James B. Sikking. Director Burt Topper later made SOUL HUSTER with Nai Bonet & Fabian.
SAMURAI SPY-(1965)-I saw this Japanese period piece on IFC recently. It's a pretty cool sword drama involving two clans who constantly betray each other. Samurai Sarutobi tracks down a spy named Nojiri while the mysterious Sakon has his own agenda. A bit talky but it doesn't take away from the overall plot.
