Movie review - "The Trap" (1966) ***

 Gorgeous Canadian scenery. Oliver Reed looks like a trapper. But they dub him. Why? Rita Tushingham lovely. Simple taming of the beast story. Some strong action sequences. Sidney Hayers was a skilled director.

Movie review - "Razorback" (1984) ***1/2 (rewatching)

 Every still is like a painting. Arkie Whiteley so lovely. Bill Kerr tremendous. Chris Haywood and David Argue heaps of fun, if awful people. Script feels odd in places. Kerr gets a depressinh death. Why kill the dog. 

Movie review - "Kiss of the Vampire" (1963) ***1/2 (rewatching)

 Started slow for me - because I know what's happening I guess. Lacked star power. But second half gets better when more things happen. Looks like a dream.
