Billy Wilder's "Stalag 17" is cinematic simplicity at its best. It is a good old fashioned piece of entertainment that effectively establishes a simple and specific situation and then spins an absorbing yarn around it. Throw in several great William Holden moments and you have got yourself a winner of a film.

After a failed escape from the prison camp designated Stalag 17, the imprisoned soldiers start to suspect Sergeant J.J. Sefton (William Holden) of being a snitch. Sefton's reputation as an antisocial cynic certainly has not endeared him to his barrack-mates and they have no qualms over dishing out their own brand of justice on him. Sefton's guilt or innocence is eventually determined shortly before a crucial attempt to smuggle ... Read More:

The tagline for the 1973 western "Cahill U.S. Marshal" declares: "Break the law and he's the last man you want to see. And the last you ever will." But we know that because the title character is played by John Wayne, so it really goes without saying that he is as good as it gets. But this is the Duke near the end of his career and while he made a pretty good western the year before with "The Cowboys," he was now just coasting (e.g., "The Train Robbers," "Brannigan") before he actually had some fun making a movie with Katharine Hepburn ("Rooster Cogburn") and found an excellent coda to his legendary acting career with "The Shootist."

Wayne is J.D. Cahill, a tough U.S. marshal who is always on the trail of someone and never at home, which ... Read More:

DVD : Death Trap [1976]
Directed by Tobe Hooper ('The Texas Chain Saw Massacre 1 and 2') I found this film to be quite entertaining. There was a time when this was banned but now it is released uncut, and very cheap!

The cast is made up of plenty of horror movie veterans, including Robert 'Freddy Krueger' England, Marilyn Chambers of the above mentioned 'Chain Saw' film and Janus Blythe from 'The Hills Have Eyes'.

The film mainly takes place at a small motel in the middle of nowhere, where the motel owner doesn't seem to like any of his guests! He kills them and feeds them to his pet Alligator who lives in the lake by his property!

If you're a fan of violent gory horror movies you should give this film a try, I'm glad I did, I was pleasantly surprised.
