“Blood and Black Lace” (1964): Bava at His Best
Mario Bava is my favorite director. Second place (either Kurusawa or Kubrick) isn’t even close. I am not arguing that he is the greatest director. I am not saying that Baron Blood or any of his films are the equal of SEVEN SAMURAI or PATHS OF GLORY. But, if I were stranded on a desert […]

“Pray for Death” (1985): 80’s Ninja Flicks Reach Their Legendary Opus
You’re not supposed to root for ninjas. In most of the best Asian samurai flicks, the ninjas are little more than cannon fodder, probably wearing a Star Trek red shirt beneath their black unitards. Their proper role is to be cut to ribbons by a heroic samurai, for the simple reason that they cheat. They […]
