...Dantes Inferno film festival. Dante has long been one of my favorite directors, an unrepentant appreciator of the camp qualities and the genuine wit and scrappy creativity to be found among the many titles to have filled the B-movie bucket over the past 50 years or so. His encyclopedic knowledge of seemingly every movie ever released, his...

...Dantes best films comes in his continuous casting of the wonderfully warm character actor Belinda Balaski.

2007-12-28 17:43:00 by Jeremy Richey in Moon In The Gutter
...Dantes best films are positively drunk on the idea of cinema, and it is this addiction to film that makes his work so damn timeless and so infectiously fun GREMLINS is a celebration of cinema and chaos, or perhaps more appropriately a celebration of chaos in cinema.

MATINEE has been unfortunately made difficult to see in recent years, with the DVD out of print and even that was a bare-bones job which came without the complete MANT, a feature that had...
