Witchboard (1986) is somewhat well known in certain circles as a love story between two men. Sure, Brandon (Stephen Nichols) used to date Linda (Tawny Kitaen) and blames Jim (Todd Allen) for stealing her from him, but the tension between the two male characters is palpable. Childhood friends, they grew up together and were inseparable

Writer | Nelson BondAir Date | January 2, 1953 “The Mask of Medusa” doesn’t have the look and feel of a “regular” episode of Tales of Tomorrow.

In either case,

The Driller Killer (1979) brings to life the gritty streets of 1970s New York City. Watching it, I felt like I was there… but I didn’t want to be. Should the film be praised for its realistic depiction or panned for its distasteful content? For what viewer ratings are worth, the majority says it’s above
