Tales From The Darkside (1990)
This was a bad movie. The only good segment ‘Lot 249’ featured Steve Buscemi, Julianne Moore and Christian Slater as hateful, ghastly gits full of peevishness and petulance. People read nefariously from ancient scrolls and Slater goes psychotic with an electric meat carver. The rest of the film is woefully underpowered but ‘Lot 249’ has wonderful horridness.

Calendar Girl, Cop, Killer? The Bambi Bembenek Story (1992)
Starring Lindsay Frost, this TV movie tells the true story of Lawrencia Bembenek and her conviction for murder. Was it a miscarriage of justice? Besides this TV movie there was also ‘Woman On The Run’ starring Tatum O’Neal. Both are okay and show moral turpitude and a lack of basic social decency.

Saw II (2005)
This was inept; the only good part is the stomach churning needle pit scene.
