12/31/2006 - 10, 9, 8, 7,6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1......

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

12/28/2006 - The end of the week is drawing near, and a whole new year is about to rear it's ugly head. I look back and find it hard to believe that Lethal Death has been around as long as it has, and that I've been writing for it going on 4 years. Time sure flies. Let's see just how many reviews I can post between today and New Year's Eve!
Criss Angel Mindfreak: Season 2
Gene Simmons Family Jewels: Season 1
Hogan's Heroes: Season 5
Pathogen
The Wicker Man (2006)

12/27/2006 - You'd think I'd learn by now. Having family is a wonderful, beautiful thing and I wouldn't trade them for anything in the world. But I have a better shot at winnng the lottery than having time to get any writing done. Still, I can't complain... I love the little rascals.

I meant to have a bunch of reviews ready for you over the last couple of days, but I'm just now taking the opportunity to drag myself back in front of the computer. For now, I'd like to give you the first official

LETHAL DEATH Top Ten DVD list... circa 2006.

12/23/2006 - This is it.... the night before the night before Christmas. Tomorrow I'm going to have a houseful of people... family, if the rumors are true. I'm not sure how many there'll be, but as I'm not a crowd kinda guy... anything over 5 will be way too many.

Still, I expect I'll have some fun... won't get any writing done, but with any luck we'll all have the chance to watch my favorite traditional Christmas movie, Shaun of the Dead.

I'll be back on Monday with a whole bunch of reviews for all of the DVDs you should have bought as Christmas presents. I might even give in and post a year end Ten Best DVDs of 2006 review. For now, enjoy these little gems:
Animaniacs: Volume 2 / Pinky and the Brain: Volume 2
The Simpsons: Season 9

12/17/2006 - Geez, I can't believe Christmas is going to be here in just a few days. I guess I really need to get my butt out there and shop. Here's a couple of suggestions for the DVD fanatic (there'll be a lot more every day this week):
Lady in the Water
Masters of Horror: Fair-Haired Child
World Trade Center

12/12/2006 - Would you believe it's already just a little under TWO weeks until Christmas... and I have yet to do any shopping?!?!? Usually I have it all done by mid-November. So now I have to brave all the corwds doing their last minute shopping. I'm going to be in hell...

Wait! I've got it! I can send my wife. She LOVES shopping. I'll just stay home and watch a few more DVDS:
Air Buddies
Mission Impossible: Season 1
Roseanne: Season 6
Talladega Nights: The Legend of Ricky Bobby
The Chronicles of Narnia: Extended Edition

12/7/2006 - Thank God the weekend is coming up! Having a day job where most of the people you work for and around wouldn't know humor from a hole in the ground can make a guy mighty crazy. My warning to you... NEVER work in the corporate world. If you read Dilbert, you know the truth.
Tonight I have a couple more reviews for ya:
A Fish Called Wanda: 2-Disc Collector's Edition
Black Christmas
How I Met Your Mother: Season 1
How to Eat Fried Worms

12/5/2006 - This was a good week for DVDs. Tonight I have a handful for you, plus an extra, special added attraction. My first ever BOOK review!! But not any book mind you, but one written especially with me in mind. Well, at least for those like me who share a certain kind of reading habit. But first, the DVDs:
24: Season 5
Bones: Season 1
High School Musical Remix
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest

And for my first book review:
Uncle John's Curiously Compelling Bathroom Reader

12/4/2006 - Tonight I'm back with a little something special... a little different. CD reviews for a guy named Stephen Lynch. You'll love these.

12/2/2006 - So begins my final week of catch-up. My plan is to post a few reviews every night this week (except perhaps Sunday) until I have no more left to give... until next week. First up:

Six Feet Under: The Complete Series

11/28/2006 - Having survived the onslaught of Turkey Day, with the way too many people gathered for the feast (I'm kind if a loner guy... anything over 4 is way too many) and the veritable feast of delicious food that yanked me out of my self-imposed diet... I'm back to hit you up with a few reviews. But these aren't any reviews.. they are all about Superman... so without further ado:
Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut
Superman Returns
Superman: The Movie Serial Collection
The Adventures of Superman: Seasons 5 & 6

11/22/2006 - So the list of this week's catch-ups grows as I am back once again with a handful of reviews. And though tomorrow may be Turkey Day, I promise to sacrifice the time to give you even more:
CSI: Season 6
Family Guy: Volume 4
JAG: Season 2
NCIS: Season 2
Stephen Lynch: Live at the El Rey
Tales From the Crypt: Season 5
Texas Chainsaw Massacre: 2-Disc Ultimate Edition

Boffo! Tinseltown's Bombs and Blockbusters
Feed
Harvey Birdman: Volume 2
Mongolian Ping Pong
The Adventures of the Gummi Bears: Seasons 1-3

11/17/2006 - So much for the perfect health issue... Some nigglings of virus popped back up again... BUT I gave the computer a healthy dose of Codeine and after it woke back up it seems that it is FINALLY back amongst the living. Today I only have one more review for you, but over the weekend be prepared for an onslaught of reading:
49 Up

11/14/2006 - I guess Halloween night had more of an adverse affect on me than I thought. Besides having the entire family come down with strep (which lasted more than a week), it seems our computers picked up some kind of virus of another kind. After a week and a half of around the clock vigils, both the family and the computers have new returned to full health.

Now comes the hard part, getting all of the reviews posted that need posting. A few are late, some are on time, and others are readying themselves for your perusal. For today I give you:
Battle of the Brave
Freak Out
Home Improvement: Season 5
King Kong: Deluxe Extended Edition
MASH: Season 11
The Da Vinci Code

10/31/2006 - What the hey?? It's Halloween night... my favorite night of the year and I don't have a single HORROR review for ya?? Why, that's blasphemy! I oughta be strung up! But I digress. I'm actually getting ready to enjoy the festivities in my own inimitable fashion so I'll be back in a day or so with a list of reviews that WILL include acouple of horror titles. But for now, check these out:
CSI Miami: Season 4
Ghost Whisperer: Season 1
Greg the Bunny: Best of Film Parodies
Kids in the Hall: Season 5
MacGyver: Season 7
The Making of Miss Saigon

10/30/2006 - One more night until the goblins and ghosties crawl out from under your bed... and one more day until Fox Atomic launches “Carnival of Lost Souls” on their website. It will include exclusive clips of their newest movie, TURISTAS and contests where you can WIN a private screening, DVDs and posters. Be sure to check it out here:

10/29/2006 - I thought I'd catch back up with you before the weekend ends with a couple more DVD reviews. But beware, I'll definitely be back Halloween night (ooooohhh... spooooky) with more than just a couple:
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Season 2, Volume 1

10/28/2006 - Halloween is almost upon us and if you haven't yet had the chance to see the Dallas Children't Theatre production of "The Night of the Living Dead", you only have until November 4th. If you missed my review last week, check it out here.

In the meantime, some of you might have guessed from earlier reviews that I'm an unabashed fan of the cancelled series "Firefly", and the subsequent film "Serenity." But my fan level pales in comparison to the group of people who put together the DVD called "Done the Impossible." I strongly recommend the DVD and I'll tell you why. Well, I'll tell you why IF you click on the Poster below:

10/24/2006 - I certainly didn't want you to think the only thing I had on my mind this week was zombies, so I'm back to give you the skinny on a few new DVDs hitting store shelves this month. I should be back tomorrow with a couple more... I'm typing as fast as my little fingers will let me:
Batman Beyond: Season 2
Bewitched: Season 4
Big Love: Season 1
Feast
Justice League Unlimited: Season 1
Numb3rs: Season 2
That's My Bush: The Complete Series
Wings: Season 3

10/21/2006 - What better way to get into the Halloween Spirit than by taking in George Romero's "The Night of the Living Dead?" Normally I'd just put in the movie and relax, but thanks to the folks out at The Dallas Children's Theater, I actually settled in to watch a LIVE performance of the story onstage... or would that be 'Dead' performance? You can read my opinion by clicking on the poster:

10/17/2006 - I gotta be honest. This week I'm a little disapointed. I mentioned last week that I went to get the outlining done on my new tattoo. I was SUPPOSED to get the rest of it done last Saturday. Unfortunately the tattoo artist got sick soooooo I have to wait til next weekend to finish it up.
Now, I can't fault the guy. I'm glad he called instead of working on it while sick. I would have caught his cold, or worse he would have sneezed right in the middle of drawing and made a permanent line across my arm.
So instead of getting my arm worked on, I watched more than a few DVDs and I'm here to tell you what I thought:
Charmed: Season 6
CSI NY: Season 2
Hard Candy
La Femme Nikita: Season 5
Planet of the Apes: The Complete TV Series
Starsky & Hutch: Season 4
Supernatural: Season 1
That 70's Show: Season 5
Three's Company: Season 8
Whose Line is it Anyway: Season 1, Volume 1

10/10/2006 - Only a couple of more weeks til' Halloween and I'm celebrating by getting a new scary tattoo. That's right, last Saturday I made it through the first of three sittings of mind-numbing pain... all in the name of art. My wife was incredibly impressed that I could sit there without so much as making a face. (The only clue was the sweat forming on my upper lip...).
It did give me a little time to reflect on a few DVDs I'd seen though:
Alf: Season 4
Bad Santa: Director's Cut
Curious George
Moonlighting: Season 4
Scrubs: Season 4
The Book of Daniel: Complete Series

10/3/2006 - This the season to be scary, Fa La La La La... La La.. La La. Yep, October is always my favorite month of the year because I can scare people and get away with it. Halloween is the only holiday I really get into, despite the fact that it has gotten as commercial as the rest.
This week, curl up in a dark room and check out these DVDs:
Backdraft: 15th Anniversary Edition
Digging fo the Truth: Season 1
Forever Knight: Season 3
I Am a Sex Addict

Medium: Season 2

The Little Mermaid: Platinum Edition
The Notorious Bettie Page
The Unit: Season 1
X-Men: The Last Stand

9/26/2006 - I'm finally running my fingers ragged this week in order to play catch up on the tons of reviews for DVDs that have been flying across my desk. I'm bleary eyed, but I still know a good DVD from a bad one. Here's some more of this week's thoughts:

9/23/2006 - Another week begins, I only wish it could be one of unbridled happiness and joy. Today has been pretty much a day of mowing, driving and trying to get a 3 year old to take a nap. Some days are easier than others. You know its bad when the wife gives you the 'glare of death'.
Think I'll stay outta the way for a bit and tell you about a few DVDs:
Black. White.
Bob Newhart: Button Down Concert
Masters of Horror: Dance of the Dead
Stephen King's Desperation
Unknown White Male
Winchell

9/21/2006 - Hey, I think I'm startin' to like this posting every few days thing. Can't swear that time will allow me to keep doing it, but we'll see. Today I've got two older titles from 20th Century Fox:
Frankenstein Unbound
Shock Treatment: 25th Anniversary Edition

9/19/2006 - Told ya I'd be back. and yes... I know it took me a couple more days than I said it would. But you try to get a 3-year old off the ceiling. It's not as easy as it sounds! Anyhow, here's today's grab bag:
Edgar Allan Poe: Tales of Mystery and Imagination
Galaxina: 25th Anniversary Edition
Go For Zucker
Hart to Hart: Season 2
Let's Get Frank
My Name is Earl: Season 1
Stay Alive
Stick It
Stupidity
The Chris Rock Show: Seasons 1 & 2

9/16/2006 - It's an awfully rare time that I get to post reviews over the weekend, but as I am trying to catch up on a glut of DVDs that have come in over the past couple of weeks I'm getting my butt in gear.
My plan is to post a couple of reviews every day or the next week until I'm all caught up. Whether or not I pull it off remains to be seen. With our 3-year old floating around the house it's hard to get to the computer sometimes. And yes, I mean literally floating (note to self... call exorcist).
Anyhow, while my wife is busying herself trying to get our daughter off the ceiling, here's what I have for today:
Red vs. Blue: Seasons 1 - 4
Smallville: Season 5
Teen Titans: Season 2
The Batman: Season 2

9/12/2006 - Today I have to rush through introductions, but tomrrow I'll fill you in on how the week has been, aside from being horribly ill. Here's a couple of reviews for now:

The Bob Newhart Show: Season 4
Dead Man's Shoes
Diagnosis Murder: Season 1
Spongebob Squarepants: Season 4, Volume 1
Taps: 25th Anniversary
United 93

9/8/2006 - Thought I'd drop in one more time before the weekend and tell you about a couple of independent films. The first one is available on DVD, the second isn't... yet.
Cyxork 7
Daddy's Home

9/6/2006 - See, told ya I'd be back this week. I barely made it and my fingers are pretty much bleedin' from too much typing, but here goes:
American Gun
Broken Trail
Family: Seasons 1 & 2
Fraggle Rock: Season 2
Gerald McBoing Boing: Volumes 1 & 2
Gojira
House: Season 2
Looking For Comedy in a Muslim World

9/5/2006 - Well, I enjoyed quite a long holiday from my day job, 10 days in a row mind you. Just went back today. I got to get in a lot of DVd watching in between bouts of sleep, garage cleaning and more sleep. Today I only have three reviews for you, but over the next two days, be prepared for an onslaught:
3rd Rock from the Sun: Season 5
Lost: Season 2
Savage Sinema

8/29/2006 - Once again I have had quite the eventful weekend. My wife and I have taken time of from our dull day jobs and are enjoying peace and quiet in the comfort of our own home... sort of. Over the weekend we opted to take the kids on a 6-hour drive to Lubbock to visit some of my wife's family. Overall it was actually a perfect trip, except for the few moments that our 3 year old woke up and was visibly.. or rather audibly... uncomfortable.
I also learned something very important on the trip. Dramamine works. You see, I get really, really nauseous when I read or write in a moving car. But I thought (as my wife loves to drive) that the 12 total hours in the car might... just might allow me a lot of time to write reviews. I picked up some Dramamine, took it about an hour before we started out and wrote my little fingers off with nary a nauseous moment. Here are the results:
Arrested Development: Season 3
Brother Bear 2
Chaos
Conviction: The Complete Series
Criss Angel Mindfreak: Halloween
Double Indemnity
L.A. Story: 15th Anniversary Edition
Magilla Gorilla / Hong Kong Phooey: The Complete Series Sets
Some Kind of Wonderful
South Park: Season 8
The Andy Griffith Show: Season 7
The Lord of the Rings: Limited Editions
The Lost City
The Tick vs. Season 1
The Up Series
Trilogy of Terror
Veronica Mars: Season 2

8/22/2006 - When last I left you, I mentioned that I was taking my kids to 6 Flags in the middle of this ridiculous Texas Heat Wave. I thought I was nuts, but you know... we couldn't have picked a better time. Most of the kids were back in school (our son doesn't go back til Sept 1st) so the park was nearly deserted. We never waited to get on any ride, and even though it was hot there were plenty of places to cool off.

It was our 3-year old daughter's first trip to 6 Flags and she had the best time. She rode every single ride that her 37" high body was allowed to and feared nothing. We followed that up with two birthday celebrations over the weekend and bascially spoiled the heck out of her. But while she was sleeping off all the excitement, I got a little DVD watching in:
Blue Thunder: The Complete Series
Invasion: The Complete Series
Poseidon
Remington Steele: Seasons 4 & 5
Rome: Season 1
Silent Hill
Surface: The Complete Series
The Dead Zone: Season 4
Threshold: The Complete Series

8/15/2006 - So here we are, in the middle of Texas, and we're on our 254th day off triple digit temperatures. I know Texas was one of the worst States to live in, but I thought it was because of the people... not the weather, too!
So what's the best thing to do when the weather is this bad (aside from move to a better State)? Sit inside and watch a few DVDs. Of course, tomorrow I'm going to brave the weather (and the people) by taking my kids to 6 Flags. Am I nuts? Probably... after all I live in Texas:
Apocalypse Now: Dossier
Blackbeard
Hogan's Heroes: Season 4
Hoot
I Know What You Did Last Summer Box Set Collection
Masters of Horror: Jenifer
Scary Movie 4
Sealab 2021: Season4
The Brak Show: Season 2
The Simpsons: Season 8

8/8/2006 - So two weeks have slipped by, though it is not on account of any laziness on my part, oh no... You may remember my mentioning a few computer problems the last time. Well they reared their ugly heads again and made writing and posting a little difficult.
I think I have everything back under control now so with a little luck (hot glue and duct tape) Things should be getting back to normal around here. This week I'm here to fill you in on these new DVDs:
Alice In Wonderland
Beavis & Butt-Head: Volume 3
Broken Saints
Don't Come Knocking
Final Destination 3
La Femme Nikita: Season 4
Prison Break: Season 1
Tales from the Crypt: Season 4
Three's Company: Season 7

7/25/2006 - Well, so much for the best laid plans of mice and men. I had intended to add a few more reviews last week, but everything that could go wrong... did go wrong. Everything from a broken garage door to an air conditioner that decided to quit air conditioning. We had to spend 2 days without air conditioning with temperatures hitting the triple digits outside.
Then the laptop I do most of my writing on decided to crash and the screen said something about a memory dump...which made me think I had lost all the reviews I had written last week. Fortunately it was the laptop unit and not the hard drive so I was saved from days of re-writing the following reviews:
Amazing Stories: Season 1
Animaniacs: Volume 1 / Pinky & The Brain: Volume 1
Broken
Carnivale: Season 2
Charlies Angels: Season 3
I Dream of Jeannie: Season 2
Jag: Season 1
Rawhide: Season 1
The Ellen Show: Complete Series
The Incredible Hulk: Season 1
The Prisoner: 40th Anniversary Megaset

7/18/2006 - Since making it past my birthday last week, I've caught up on several more DVDs to tell you about. I'm only giving you a look at 5 today, but I'll have more as the week progresses. For now:
Avatar: Book 1, Volume 4
Pirates: The R-rated Version
Ren & Stimpy: The Lost Episodes
The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr: The Complete Series
The Pretender: Season 4

7/11/2006 - As promised, after recuperating from the 4th of July weekend and in preparation for my birthday tomorrow (though at my age I'd rather forget those), I got together a ton of reviews. I'm pretty sure these'll keep ya busy for a while:
30 Days: Season 1
Basic Instinct 2: Risk Addiction
Find Me Guilty
Koko: A Talking Gorilla - Criterion Collection
Masters of Horror: Homecoming
Perry Mason: Season 1, Volume 1
Reno 911: Season 3
The Libertine
The Matador
The World's Fastest Indian
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Season 1, Volume 2

And to sweeten the pot, I have an additional movie review for a disturbing little flick that isn't available on DVD yet:
Amateur Porn Star Killer

7/7/2006 - I can't believe I made it through another 4th of July Holiday without blowing up anything. Well, at least anything I wasn't supposed to blow up. What also didn't happen over the holiday weekend was I watched very few DVDs. This isn't to say that I don't have a lot to watch, I just spent a little more family time... something I should be doing.

So this week I only have 2 DVD reviews and one movie review. However I have been doing a little catching up so by next week... be prepared for an onslaught of
