The Thing With Two Heads
Have you ever wondered why there aren't any movies that have gorillas with two heads escaping from labs, running sideways down the street and invading corner markets just to eat bananas with both mouths? Maybe you've been looking for a movie about a bigoted doctor that's contracted "terminal chest cancer" and needed to figure out a way that he could prolong his life, but you don't even know if one existed. Well, my friends, search no further - your prayers have been answered and your movie has been delivered - it's been here since 1972! The title of which you seek is The Thing with Two Heads, directed by Lee Frost, and starring Ray Milland and Rosey Grier as the titular character.
Future Hunters
From all the movies I've seen that take place at least 20 years in the future, things are going to be pretty bleak for us, with the post-apocalyptic world and all. We visit another one of these era's in Cirio H. Santiago's 1986 film Future Hunters, where everything is all Mad Max, and people chase each other around in cars looking to get a leg up on the competition. In this case, Matthew (Richard Norton) is being chased and in order to save the world, he has to get his hands on the spear that pierced Jesus' chest, the spear of destiny. He manages to grab it seconds before he's about to be blown up, and his contact with the spearhead transports him 39 years to the past - from 2025 all the way back to 1986, and in proximity to our main subjects, Michelle and Slade (Robert Patrick). After Matthew is shot and on his way to death's door, he fills in Michelle and Slade on what the spearhead is, and that they need to contact a "Hightower" in order to learn how to save the future... Wow... heavy, man.
Angel of Fury (aka Triple Cross)
Here at IB.net we seem to be finding and watching a lot of movies from Indonesian cinema. They really love action flicks with a lot of karate, gun fights, and explosions. We’ve also reviewed a few Cynthia Rothrock movies in the last few months. So it was a treat to find her in an Indonesian movie… and if that wasn’t good enough, we found one with the god of action faces, Peter O'Brian! These 3 are a staple of cheesy low budget action films. Needless to say we had very high hopes for Angel of Fury, the 1991 film by Rambu (aka The Intruder) and The Stabilizer writer Deddy Armand. Wait a minute it’s called Angel of Fury… didn’t we just review a movie called Angel of Fury with Cynthia Rothrock? Yes we did, but that is a different one if you can believe that!
She-Wolves of the Wasteland
She-Wolves of the Wasteland (aka Phoenix the Warrior) begins in the future, where a biological war breaks out that somehow kills every man on earth, and only a handful of women survive. It's the old post apocalyptic tale with a twist. This time an evil woman known as the Reverend Mother (Sheila Howard) decides to repopulate the earth in a sick and corrupt way. In what corrupt way, I'm not sure, I just know that this Rev. Mom has a big deformed head with surgical tubing coming out of it. Anyhow, A woman escapes Rev. Mom and runs off into the desert, and has a gaggle of bounty hunters after her. One lone warrior steps out of the wasteland to protect her, and that woman is PHOENIX!
