This weeks watching and reading has been...


Invaders from Mars (1986) - Directed by Tobe Hooper
Lifeforce (1985) - Directed by Tobe Hooper
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 (1986) - Directed by Tobe Hooper

Stanley Kubrick - The Complete Films by Paul Duncan

One of the guys I worked with at Qurios Entertainment said he'd structure his movie watching into mini film festivals, so this week I thought I'd have a Tobe Hooper festival. Now the 3 films of his I chose I chose for a reason, they were 3 films he shot back to back for the Canon Group run by Menahem Golan and Yoram Globus, a few years after these films were made the Canon group went bust. The Cannon Group's library of films is now part of MGM.
