New Rose Hotel - Weirder than weird Cyberpunk story from the master, William Gibson. Nonexistant budget and plenty of sweet Asia A, along with some major names. However, not exactly a good movie.

Body Snatchers - Why am I the only one who realizes how good this movie is?

Bad Lieutenant 1/2 - The definitive Ferrara flick.

King of New York - Just doesn't do all that much for me.

Fear City - Don't remember it well enough.





They flutter behind you, your possible pasts.
Some bright-eyed and crazy, some frightened and lost.
