Leviathan (1989)

This was a movie that was so bad that it was good. I was really entertained by Leviathan. Sure it’s an amalgamation of other (better) creature feature movies, but it has enough cheese and corniness to redeem itself. The creature was scary enough. The underwater scenes are convincing even if they were filmed dry for wet.

Rated 6 out of 10.

Streamed on Kanopy.

Outland (1981)

A space western detective story with a badass Space Marshall, O'Neil (Sean Connery) and a snarky Space Doctor (Frances Sternhagen). Peter Boyle is unrecognizable.

The production design reminded me of Alien.

The way people die in this movie is rather explosive. The countdown clock was unnecessary. The special effects did not age well. And sniper shotguns?

I enjoyed this seemingly underrated Connery film, it was really entertaining.

Rated 7 out of 10.
