A Double Dose of Joy

Severin has released two films from the 80's JOY and JOY & JOAN. The first, superior film has Joy played by the exquisite Claudia Udy. Just by listening to the interview with Claudia you knew that this was an exceptional young woman who was in tune with her surroundings and her own sumptuous figure. To be blunt, she is gorgeous.

Based on the autobiography of French-American super model Joy Laurey, Claudia embraces the unleashed sexual passion of Joy and enters into some scenes that are steamy even by softcore standards.

The print is magnificent and the interview with lead actress Claudia is very informative.

Joy was truly a joy to watch.

In the sequel Claudia is replaced by renowned Brigitte Lahaie. While very easy on the eyes, Ms. Lahaie comes across as a different charcater. In the sequel Joy has had it with the world of men and coiuples with tour guide Joan, played by the extremely beautiful Isabelle Solar. There is lots of skin on display like in the first one, but it seems less of a picture than the original.

Also, there are no extras on the sequel which seems bizarre as Severin tends to pride itself on its extras.

JOY and JOY & JOAN are the newest twosome of soft core magnificence from the people at Severin.

Be sure not to miss them.

LOOSE SCREWS: SCREWBALLS II

Severin Films does it again with the release of LOOSE SCREWS: SCREWBALLS 2, After their release of the classic teen comedy, SCREWBALLS, they had to give us the sequel.
This time out the boys, four of them this time, are being sent to a special school since they are unable to graduate from a normal high school because they are too busy chasing girls. After four years as a senior they are sent to Coxwell Academy as a last resort. Since there are girls at Coxwell their chances are pretty slim. Add to that the hot French teacher, Mona Lott and the boys have a new goal.
Sleep with Mona Lott.
With LOOSE SCREWS, the stakes are raised from the original film. The nudity is abundant and in the first one they are just trying to expose a girl's boobs, this time it's all about sex. There are madcap schemes to peek at girls. Everything from a liquid that dissolves bathing suits to some playful cross dressing to get into the girls dorm.
Alan Deveau and Jason warren are back playing basically the same characters with different names. Mike MacDonald who has previous 'balls' experience with the summer camp comedy ODD BALLS is the principal of Coxwell who also has an eye on Mona Lott.
This is noithing more than a madcap teen sex comedy and it delivers on all levels. Severin gives us a magnificent print of the film along with interviews with people involved with the film, an international, longer version of the film and a great commentary with director Rafal Zielinski. A great package for a fun flick.
Now Severin needs to complete the trifecta with SCREWBALL HOTEL, also by Zielinski and then they can make a box set of them all.
Oh, and we need a soundtrack release for this film Severin. The soundtrack embodies the time period and has some great tunes. When you have a movie that has a song about the impression a condom makes on a guy's wallet, you know you have a winner.

NEVER TOO YOUNG TO DIE (1986)

  Being such a huge fan of the show Gene Simmons Family Jewels I decided to rewatch all of his film efforts.
I started with the one that is the most fun.
How can you go wrong with John Stamos, Vanity and Gene Simmons in a film. Gene plays Ragnar a hermaphroditic super villain bent on extorting a city by threatening to poison its water supply. With his/her endless supply of goons that look like they stepped from The Road Warrior, Gene manages to chew the scenery with relish.
This is the best, mindless action movie of its time. The villain is over the top. Vanity looks amazing in clothes and out of them. I didn't even mind John Stamos. With short appearances by Robert Englund and George Lazenby this is the cult flick that everyone should be watching.
And the scene where Stamos has to beat Simmons by biting one of his boobs. EPIC!
And to finish this out with a bang, here are the lyrics of the song 'Stargrove' which is about Stamos because that's his characters last name.

"Are ya feeling like breaking out?

Looking for danger

Feeling adventurous

Then you must

Put your trust

Not in a stranger



Playin' your own game

Do it your own way

Keepin' your own sound

That you found

Goin' down

Playin' like you play



Who knows what you'll find

You might like it, or not

But all that you find, boy

Is all that you got



(Stargrove!) Flying like you've never flown

(Stargrove!) Runnin' through a danger zone

(Stargrove!) Are you gonna stand alone?

Stargrove! Stargrove!



You feel like takin'

The world on your shoulders

You're just a Robin Hood

Makin' good

Where you could

You're one of the soldiers



Faster than lightning

Nothing can strike you

You got the good stuff

Tough enough

Stayin' rough

There's no one like you



Who knows what you'll find

You might like it, or not

But all that you find, boy

Is all that you got



(Stargrove!) Flying like you've never flown

(Stargrove!) Runnin' through a danger zone

(Stargrove!) Are you gonna stand alone?

Stargrove! Stargrove!"

It just keeps getting better and better, doesn't it?





Never Too Young to Die [VHS]

DRAWING FLIES (1996)

Right After CLERKS comes this bizarre little flick that has Jason Mewes, Jason Lee, Kevin Smith (in a teeny tiny role) Joey Lauren Adams and the one girl from Mallrats that is doing the scientific research on having sex with guys. I forget her name. Oh yeah, and Scott Mosier in a diaper.
Basically there is a group of five friends that have reached the end of their welfare run and have no prospects. Jason Lee is visited by a vision of Sasquatch and tricks his friends to make the journey into the wilderness to find the fabled beast.
Shot in black and white and about as rough as CLERKS was, DRAWING FLIES has an extremely dry sense of humor. While there are a few funny moments the film is just...well, there. It's interesting to see these actors when they were young doing this, but the flick is not all that great.
For curiosity seekers only, DRAWING FLIES is good for a single viewing.

From The Jackwagons over at Ain't It Cool News

So, I have no idea why I still check out their site. They irritate me on a daily basis.

Watch this video;



They try using this to say that Romero zombies run. Gee, the dead guy here only really moved fast in two instances;
One, going downhill. Yeah, I can see dead weight moving a little faster when affected by gravity.
Two, Romero zombies always move a little quicker when they get near warm, yummy human flesh. In EVERY MOVIE THIS HAPPENS.
Must be a slow news day over there.
And let me finish with;
RUNNING ZOMBIES SUCK!
We now return you to your regularly scheduled lives.
Enjoy!
