Read more: Wolf Hound (2022)Wolf Hound is a WW2 movie that showcases some of the “dirty fighting” of the Jew-hating Nazis in the latter stages of the world’s greatest war.

Read more: The Wet HouseThe Wet House -A Documentary by Penny Woolcock (2002) This is an incredibly hard to watch hour-long documentary on housing formerly homeless Drunks. I don’t use the word Drunks flippantly or judgmentally, that’s exactly what these people are. There is not the slightest hint of rehab here and no pretense at all about these down-and-out…

Normally I would not even be exposed to this movie, but I got a nice e-mail from Benjamin Kanes deploring the latest pile of shark shit from Asylum, in the form of one Sharknado 2. He threw it down and said that they had done better with their…
