SpecialsTarget Disturbing yet enthralling

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

dedeurs Thank the Lord of Darkness; no eyliens from outer space and no munsters from the underworld! At least, that's my interpretation. I find comparisons with 'Invasion of the Body Snatchers' and the Zombie franchise way over the line. In 1984, Meg Tilly still played pretty, vulnerable girls. Eventually she would excel in eccentric or batshit crazy characters. That's when I began to notice her and became a fan. She's one of the greatest 'B' actresses around, and till this day scandalously underrated.A bit flawed movie (scripting & pacing) but it's worth the watch. There's good (and even modestly hot) action, it does well without special effects, it's by far not as predictable as other films in the genre. And it has a young and radiant Meg Tilly.

idontneedyourjunk A very small earthquake in a very small town appears to be the cause of everyone becoming increasingly crazy. The heroine's mother attempts suicide, which brings her back to her home town with her boyfriend. Some crazy stuff happens, such as;-old people play kickball in the street-an old guy urinates on the boyfriend's car-old people suddenly try to rob a bank that they're in-the old sheriff shoots a shoplifter in the back with an M16. Okay, it's America, so that one isn't so far-fetched. But old people are crazy.Bill is the heroine's brother, he and his father run a very small dairy farm that doesn't have any cows, but somehow produces enough milk for the town. No sterilization, no pasteurization, hell, it's not even covered, it just sits in a big open vat before being poured into bottles.While the boyfriend starts to go crazy, he discovers old pictures that the brother has of her sister, and kills him.She then drives away while the whole town is now burning after everyone starts a riot.A quick cut to the end (because many scenes make no sense), the boyfriend discovers the earthquake broke open a sealed pit that is leaking something into the water that is being used in the local milk (she didn't drink any). He then discovers the "government" are spraying the town, and they shoot him. The heroine sees him getting gunned down, and rams the shooter, killing him. She then walks away, the end.End credits reveal the entire town mysteriously die (from the government spraying, presumably).Starring: Anne Haney, an old woman who steals from the bank, goes on to play Judge Travelini in LA LawJohn Karlen, he's been playing cops for 30 years, but here ends up as a dairy farmerMeg Tilly (whom I often mistake for her sister, Jennifer), most famous for The Big Chill, recast in 3 movies after receiving injuries, took a 15 year hiatus to raise her children, came back to starring in Bomb Girls, 6-part miniseries that turned into 2 seasons and a movieTim Matheson, did a lot of kid's cartoons in the 60s (Jonny Quest, Sinbad Jr, Young Samson & Goliath, Space Ghost (and recently Scooby-Doo in 2013)), most famous as Vice-President on West Wing and Dr Breeland on Hart Of Dixie. He also appears in the latest Jumanji movie.

moonspinner55 City girl Meg Tilly receives a horrifying phone call from her mother and, understandably shaken, returns home to her family's rural digs, only to be faced with a mystery: why are all the homespun residents acting out in bizarre and unsettling ways? Radiation thriller, with barely a nod to ecology, has small town residents going berserk, which (laughably) includes two women gazing at each other with desire in a public place and Tim Matheson receiving oral attention from a girl on an office bench. The picture is too silly for words, wasting Tilly's wistfulness and quiet intensity on trash while forcing itself into a corner it can't possibly hope to get out of. Some of the cinematography by Thomas Del Ruth is good (particularly a fire sequence set inside a garage), though he is let down by the scrappy editing--and a fairly bathetic finale. Simplistic screenplay has nary a surprise nor a shred of originality up its sleeve. *1/2 from ****

bladeofwar I saw this movie on SciFi the other day and must say it was like no other. A lot of cool scenes with people doing crazy s**t, cause they're acting on their first impulse and giving no second thoughts to their actions AKA some funny s**t. It didn't seem like it was that old a movie until the dude puts on a sleeveless jacket. Well this is my first attempt at writing a review for a movie so whatever. I'm gonna write more so hopefully they'll get better and if they don't then go cry to your mother!
