Tremors 4: The Legend Begins (2004)

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvnhcdheAEs

 

Direct-to-video prequel to the cult giant-worm saga takes place in the 1870s, with Michael Gross portraying Hiram Gummer, the great-grandaddy of his gun-nut 'Burt' character from the other three films. In a neat role reversal, Hiram's a tenderfoot from the city who comes out to investigate strange goings-on at the silver mine he owns. When the so-called "Dirt Dragons" are discovered it's up to Hiram and his fellow townspeople to saddle up and take back their valley.

 

Low budget fun with the series' usual goofy sense of humor.

Watched Beetlejuice with the kids last night and I forgot that this one is a bit over the top for my kids at least. I also forgot Mike Keaton drops the F bomb in this.

 

I still love it, the kids, not so much...

I haven't watched this with the kids yet 8 and 6, what do you think?

Mine are 7 and 12, my 7 year old son got about 15 minutes in where Gina Davis is holding Alec Baldwins head in hear hand as if she chopped it off and he was out. My daughter (12), watched the rest with me but she said later that she didn't like it, a) "it was a little scary Dad" (and I'd agree some of the special effects are pretty graphic with face pulling off and such) and B) "that B'juice was really crude, she did not care for how he kept hitting on Gina Davis. :)

 

Ultimately your call, if I could do it again, I would have previewed it as I did not recall it being that bad, but I have a different standard/threshold than my kids.

I'm loving this exchange. It's encouraging to witness responsible parenting. I deal with students that don't have the greatest parents/guardians, so much so that I sometimes think there aren't any decent folk around anymore.

My kids haven't seen "Beetlejuice," but they're watching Burton's "The Nightmare Before Christmas" right now and they're digging it...

"Cherry Bomb" (2010)

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BMjgSdhhkU

 

Remember the early 80s rash of "female vigilante" films like "Ms. .45," "Lipstick" and "Avenging Angel?" The makers of this uber-cheap shot on video "homage" obviously do. A stripper named "Cherry Bomb" is gang-raped by five scum bags and she spends the whole movie hunting them down and picking them off. Yep, that's the whole plot.

 

The gal playing "Cherry" is cute but everything else about this flick - acting, dialogue, and direction - is pure crapola. You know you're in trouble when the biggest name in a movie is porn star Nick Manning (known to Howard Stern fans as the "droppin' f**kin' loads!" guy) in his first "mainstream" role.

 

Avoid!

"2012: Ice Age" (2011)

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxbiNWSNPTk

 

Yet another zero budget disaster film from The Asylum that rips off both of Roland Emmerich's then-recent end of the world epics, "2012" and "The Day After Tomorrow" (neither of which are really deserving of a ripoff anyway).

 

Volcanic eruptions cause a giant rogue glacier to break loose and bear down on the continental U.S. (at 200 miles per hour!). As the East Coast slowly freezes solid, a family must race from Maine to New York in order to rescue their estranged daughter.

 

As usual for an Asylum film, "2012 Ice Age" features D-list stars (Patrick "Little House on the Prairie" Labyorteaux! Julie "Growing Pains" McCullough!), bad acting and hilariously cheap special effects.

 

That said, I still liked it better than either of Emmerich's bloated, pretentious epics!

Cloud Atlas. I enjoyed it, but you have to watch it all, or you will get confused because it jumps around a lot ;)

 

 

 

And probably more than once.

    • Never understood why Binary Music wasn't that popular (at least that was what I perceived). It's by far my favourite Palace album. Every songs have killer melodies and a good production.
    • I have bought a few that are decent, but the two that have impressed me most are Mick Mars and Judas Priest.
    • King Zebra , Gotus  , Saxon for me so far and the new Alicate disc is pretty decent. As you've said there are a few still to come(Black Diamonds,Nestor,Remedy,Seb Bach,Kissin Dynamite to name a few I'm waiting for) and another 3/4 of the year to go 
    • Have enjoyed all his output apart from Binary Music...so i'll give this a goo too  hoping for something in the vein of the debut mixed with a little R'n'R radio.
    • Solid song there. 3 for 3 so far. I hope there will be an album out soon. C.H.
    • I am looking forward to this, I was wondering just a few days ago if Palace was working on anything recently. The album art looks like it was done by the same guy that did the art for the Platinum Overdose albums. C.H.
    • So supposedly out but can't find it. Anybody listened to it? 
    • New album to be released July 12th. Press release: PRESENTING ’Reckless Heart,’ the brainchild of Lithuanian-born Swedish artist Michael Palace and the fifth spellbinding chapter in the PALACE saga. This explosive musical journey resurrects the essence of the 1980s, each track pulsating with the potential to score a classic action blockbuster or drive the adrenaline of a training montage. Inspired by genre-defining icons such as AVIATOR, FM and DARE alongside contemporaries CHEZ KANE and CRAZY LIXX, Michael Palace meticulously rebuilt the PALACE sound from the ground up, returning to the true origins and inspiration of the project. ’Reckless Heart’ is an essential cornerstone in any AOR and melodic rock aficionado’s collection. “It was time to go back to the roots, as they say, and finally make that true ’80s AOR album that I’ve dreamt of creating since I started PALACE. It’s the missing link between 1985 and 2024,” said Michael. Michael Palace embarked on his journey with Frontiers as a songwriter and guitarist for various projects such as FIRST SIGNAL, CRY OF DAWN, TOBY HITCHCOCK and KRYPTONITE. These successful collaborations paved the way for a deal with Frontiers, enabling Michael to deliver songs aligned with his vision under the name PALACE. ’Reckless Heart’ marks the fifth release, maintaining a bi-annual album release schedule since 2016. Recently, Michael has produced albums for KENT HILLI and NEVENA and done work across diverse genres while taking on various roles such as a songwriter, musician, producer, and engineer. Tracks: 1. Reckless Heart 2. The Widow’s Web 3. Back In Your Arms 4. Girl Is An Angel 5. You Give Me A Reason To Live 6. Back To ’85 7. For The Love 8. Turn This Car Around 9. Weightless 10. Move Me 11. Stronger By The Day
