| March-April Movie Previews by
David Marsh
Though it's been a slow year so far, there are a few movies coming
out in the next month that look like they could be fun.
Bob Eggleton reviewed The Dish
last month, and he was very excited about it. No, it's not quite Sci-Fi,
but looking backwards has it's own merits.
Spy Kids looks like fun, if totally absurd, when the kids of a
pair of international spies has to save their folks, using all manner of
special gadgets. Rent a kid and go see it.
Tremors 3: Back to Perfection is going straight to video,
which is probably a good thing, but we've enjoyed both of its
predecessors for their campy Sci-Fi B Movie flavor. Even if it's bad it
will probably be better than some of the stuff that goes to the big
screen. A number of the younger cast members from the first film have
grown up in time for this sequel, and Michael Gross returns as Burt, the
gun toting survivalist.
Impostor is a tale of an android alien killer, and how much do
we want to bet it passes for human? From what I've seen of Just
Visiting in previews, it could be fun for Python and SCA fans. I
gather a space/time warp drops a trio of medieval types into a modern
city with predicable havoc. Could be fun, and I hear it has a curvaceous
cast.
I'll let you know how I like these after I've had a chance to screen
them, but for now, follow the links to the Internet
Movie Data Base for more information about the movies.
