Angel Heart (1987)
Jun 8, 1999Film Noir/Pact with The Devil
Dazzling mash-up of 1940s film noir and the horror genre. One of the most beautifully filmed of all horror films, Alan Parker creates a bygone world with a visual sensuality that constantly edges over into the fantastic
Medicine Man (1992)
Jul 8, 2000Cancer Cure in the Amazon Rainforest
John McTiernan was one of the great action directors of the 1980s but this drama with Sean Connery as a scientist in the Amazonian rainforest and his bickering relationship with Lorraine Bracco failed to come off
Color of Night (1994)
Jun 11, 2004Psycho-Sexual Thriller
A blatant copy of Basic instinct with psychologist Bruce Willis getting involved with Jane March as his patients start being murdered. Much bare flesh but the film is killed by ludicrous plot twists
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003)
Jul 22, 2003Time-Travelling Killer Androids

Basic Instinct 2 (2006)
Apr 2, 2006Psycho-Sexual Thriller
Sequel to Basic Instinct made fourteen years later. Sharon Stone vamps her way across the screen but the heated sexuality of the original has been watered down to a lukewarm whimper
