It Was Great But Bombed Because
Belushi was just in Animal House and all the promotion for this focused on him. Then you go see it and he's a small part of a PG comedy and you sorta feel like it wasn't what you were expecting. Word got around quick amongst every kid that it was nothing cool like Animal House. Watching it years down the road made it much better. The cast is phenomenal all the way around. I believe the marketing for the movie doomed it to box office failure.
Iron Fist (2017)
Season 2 is Great
Season 2 is as good as Daredevil. Much better in every way than season 1. My only wish is that it was 13 episodes. Great fights, actors, villains and plot. Bring on season 3!
Luke Cage (2016)
Iron Fist Makes It A Little Better Than The First
Pretty good, about identical to the first. The Iron Fist episode is the best one and I felt the team up should have lasted much longer than just one episode.
Beyond Loch Ness (2008)
Exact Same Movie As Sea Beast With Different Monster
I love cheezy horror movies and thought Beyond Loch Ness (my DVD was titled The Loch Ness Terror) was really fun and a slight cut above the average SCI-FI original. The monster looked fake but cool and most of the actors in it were bearable. Then tonight I caught another flick called Sea Beast and felt like I was re-watching Loch Ness all over again. Both had water monsters that could come on shore. Both featured female monsters that had laid a nest worth of eggs. Both took place in similar locales - a bay fishing community. Both had islands nearby where teenagers became trapped and the finale took place. Both movies even had a main character who smoked cigars. I became curious about how they could be so similar and did an IMDb search - Surprise! Turns out the same director, Paul Ziller directed and wrote both of them. They even both came out in 2008. To top it all off, I noticed Ziller also made The Snakehead Terror in 2004 - another (hilarious) movie about water monsters coming on land and trapping teenagers on an island. Dude is milking that idea for all it is worth. Of the three, I'd say Loch Ness was the one with the coolest monster, best gore and most fun.
