Yeah, I don't know about you, but I tried to sell stuff on eBay for "big money" and only succeeded in melting my credit cards. Those commercials on the radio, that claim you can make "tens or hundreds of thousands." Uh, no. As usual they lie. I have no doubt an extremely small number of people made out like bandits on the old eBay site, but all of the rest of us are still stuck in the corner of the sandbox trying to just make it day-to-day.

So here I am going it solo. My own privately operated "eeebay like" sale site. Enjoy.

Oh yeah, if this stuff doesn't sell after a time, I'm boxing it all up and heading for Amoeba Records. So first-come first-served. Get it while you can cause Amoeba will eventually get it and they will definitely mark it up.

ANGER MANAGEMENT

Jack NICHOLSON
Adam SANDLER
VHS

Adam Sandler and Jack Nicholson face off in this bizarre comedy about a timid businessman (Sandler) who is ordered by the court to undergo anger management. Unfortunately, his specialist, Dr. Buddy (Nicholson), is a rather unorthodox in-your-face kind of therapist.

battle of the worlds

BATTLE OF THE WORLDS
Claude Rains
 Italian Sci-fi
VHS


Those whacky Italians. Science fiction gets yet another quirky treatment with the addition of grumbling scientist Claude Rains in "Battle of the Worlds." It seems that Mars station is getting a new planet on their radar (radar?) but investigating spaceships get slaughtered by flying saucers. Rains and his team of dysfunctional scientists come to the rescue. Rains is hilarious as an outspoken scientist who refuses to take any crap from anyone.

VHS VIDEO, COLOR, Approx. 84 minutes, Released thru GoodTimes Home Video. Not rated. Tape is a previously screened rental.

jabberwocky

JABBERWOCKY
Terry Gilliam
Michael Palin
VHS

Monty Python alumnus Terry Gilliam directs with fellow pythoner Michael Palin stepping into the lead role as a country bumpkin who meets a beautiful princess during the very Dark Ages in what can only be described as a very dark comedy. As with any Python influenced film, NOTHING is sacred. But everything is funny...

VHS VIDEO, COLOR, Approx. 101 minutes, Released thru RCA COLUMBIA PICTURES HOME VIDEO. Rated PG. Tape has been previously screened.
mean streets

MEAN STREETS
Robert DeNero
Martin Scorsese
VHS

The movie that put Martin Scorsese's name into the filmmaker's lexicon as a unique style of filmmaking. A small-time hood (Harvey Keitel) struggles to succeed on the "mean streets" of Little Italy. His girlfriend (Amy Robinson) is declared unsuitable by "the family" because of her epilepsy. And then we have the amazing Robert DeNero playing Johnny Boy, a desperate gambler living on the edge. This movie is the cinematic birth of the "Scorsese style." Much of what you will see in this film has been translated into other Scorsese pictures. Scorsese's singular style helps this low budget movie captivate audiences with originality and a great story.

MEAN STREETS, VHS VIDEO, 1973, COLOR, 112 MINUTES, RATED R, RELEASED THROUGH Warner Home Video, Previously Viewed.

phantom from space

PHANTOM FROM SPACE
CLASSIC 50s SCI-FI
VHS

Classic Sci-fi movie stuff from 1953 about a strange space creature that goes about murdering people. I remember it as one of those midnight TV movies -- back when TV still ran movies at night. Ah, the good old days...

VHS VIDEO, B&W, Approx. 73 minutes, Released thru Goodtimes Home Video Corp. Not Rated. Tape has been previously screened (rental).

re-animator

RE-ANIMATOR
HORROR CLASSIC
VHS

Actor Jeffrey Combs is brilliant. He recently tore it up on "Star Trek: Enterprise" doing more impressive acting in what few scenes he had then most of the rest of the cast did in two seasons. But his claim to fame is the "Re-Animator" series of horror films where he plays a new kind of mad scientist: Doctor Herbert West. The doc has dreams of bringing dead people and animals back to life, and he succeeds all too well. RE-ANIMATOR is based on a story by H. P. Lovecraft.

VHS VIDEO, COLOR, Approx. 86 minutes, Released thru Vestron Video. Not Rated - This is the UN-rated edition. Tape has been previously screened (rental).
stranger

THE STRANGER
ORSON WELLES
CLASSIC
VHS

This film has such an amazing history -- much of it the making of Orson Welles -- whose career was hanging by a shoestring when Producer Sam Spiegel (note: he used the acronym S. P. Eagle in the credits!) offered him the director's chair. While Welles crashed and burned career-wise (but not because of this film), THE STRANGER remains a fine example of Welles' genius -- both in front of and behind the cameras.

Under-budgeted Noir film, "THE STRANGER" is a post-war horror story of an evil nazi (Welles) who escapes to small town America under a new identity -- and who eventually marries the daughter (Loretta Young) of a U.S. Supreme Court Justice! (Yikes!). Nazihunter Edward G. Robinson is tracking down the naughty fellow.

VHS VIDEO, B&W, Approx. 95 minutes, Released thru Diamond Entertainment Corp. 1946, RKO Radio PIctures, Not Rated. Tape has been previously screened (rental).
they call me trinity

THEY CALL ME TRINITY
ITALIAN WESTERN COMEDY
VHS

Old blue eyes, Terrance Hill (the skinny guy) and surly bearded Bud Spencer (the heavy set guy) -- the rakes of the old West -- turn the Italian Spaghetti western further onto its ear with the classic, "THEY CALL ME TRINITY."  A drifter (Hill) comes to town where his brother (Spencer) is sheriff. His brother is actually a robber who broke the real sheriff's leg and left him for dead. Then the plot thickens...

VHS VIDEO, COLOR, Approx. 110 minutes, 1971, Released thru Video Galleria. Rated G (!). Dubbed into English, of course. Tape has been previously screened (rental).

VANISHING POINT

1971
Barry Newman
Cleavon Little
Dean Jagger

It's a generational thing, I guess.

"Vanishing Point" made a star of actor Barry Newman and launched the career of Cleavon Little, but many people say the real star of the movie is a 1970 white Dodge Challenger.

Released theatrically during the turn of the 1970s, "Vanishing Point" became a cult classic but got little attention in the main stream. It was completed just when 20th Century Fox was changing hands. The older executives didn't understand it -- the new ones couldn't figure out how to market it -- it simply didn't look and play like the old movies they were used to.

Director Richard Sarafian molded a spectacular movie -- the center piece being a 4 state car chase -- that has action, stunts, and moments of quiet reflection that represent a time capsule of the era. Barry Newman plays Kowalski, a man down on his luck, who makes a bet that he can ferry a car from Denver, Colorado to San Francisco in 15 hours. Amped up on speed, Kowalski shoots off West and of course soon has every cop in the intermountain West on his tail.
 
It released huge in Europe, mostly because of the incredible wide screen shots of the American Great Basin -- Europeans were fascinated by such wide open spaces. (It explains why so many of them also journey here to travel Route 66, based on re-runs of that TV show.)

Do not confuse this terrific movie with that awful Made-for-TV Movie knock-off. This is the real deal. A terrific film that takes you on a wild ride and leaves you wanting more. Though I have to add, it is much more entertaining on a wide screen.
