ROBOTRIX (1991): A female detective's mind is transferred into a cyborg body so she can hunt down the evil cyborg that killed her. This sexy ROBOCOP ripoff is silly and earnest, and delivers the nudity and robot kung fu that exploitation fans demand. Fun but forgettable. 3/5. This is as close to nude as Amy Yip gets---a bit of side boob---but the rest of the cast (even the male lead) goes full-frontal. That completes the "Supernatural Shockers" box set!

"Cyborg 2: Glass Shadow" (1993)
A teen-aged Angelina Jolie made her film debut in this direct-to-video, mostly-unrelated sequel to the Jean-Claude Van Damme surprise hit. (The only connection is a few brief, random shots of JCVD's character shown on video screens.) She plays a human-like android built by an unscrupulous corporation, who expect her to self-destruct at a meeting with the competition. When she learns the truth about her mission, she goes rogue and runs off with her handler/love interest (Elias Koteas, "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles"). A variety of bad guys (incl. the always welcome Billy Drago, creepy as usual) pursue the pair across post-apocalypse L.A. as they try to reach the "free zone."
This cheapie sci-fi action flick is way better than it has any right to be. Angelina's action-heroine chops are already in place, and the the sets are pretty effective in a "dollar store Blade Runner" kind of way.
A 3rd movie was released in '95 with a different girl playing Jolie's role, but it was god-awful and can safely be ignored.

3 DAYS TO KILL (2014)

mini review:
Kevin Costner. Something something something something something. The End.

couldn't engage with this at all, just a bunch of slick scenes of people in buildings walking around in suits. I need more these days. I need dancing chickens. give me that.

I stumbled upon Greenland 2 on IMDb today. I've never even heard of the first one, let alone the sequel. It's always a bit jarring to realize a movie you didn't know existed already has a follow-up—makes me wonder if I'm missing out.

Apparently, the first movie went straight to streaming in the US, while the sequel got a theatrical release. Usually, it's the other way around. Regardless, I don't think I'll be catching either one.

Thanks. The first one was more of a test. I did an alternative version with new songs. I asked AI to place the songs in a narrative kind of order based on song titles and the movie's plot. I like this version even better:


Proposed Soundtrack Order (Narrative Flow Edition)

1. "Good Times Roll" – The Cars (3:44)

Opening credits. 
A slightly ironic, glossy track to introduce 1979 nightlife, the city's disco glow, and the creeping sense that the "good times" are about to curdle. Perfect for a montage of clubs, neon, and newspaper headlines about the Disco Ripper.

2. "Livin' It Up (Friday Night)" – Bell & James (3:20)

Helen's world before the horror. 
Plays over Helen finishing her shift, grabbing a coffee, and heading out into the humid night. It's upbeat, but we know something's off.

3. "Baby It's You" – Promises (3:49)

The traffic jam begins. 
A soft, flirt‑leaning track as Helen first notices Robert in the Trans Am. Windows down, summer air, a moment of connection.

4. "Driver's Seat" – Sniff 'n' the Tears (3:36)

The flirtation deepens. 
This is the perfect "stuck on the freeway but vibing" song. It has that cool, cruising energy that makes Robert seem charming... until he isn't.

5. "Is It Love You're After?" – Rose Royce (3:50)

The moment before the reveal. 
A disco groove that plays as Helen starts to feel something is off. The title itself is a sly wink — she's definitely not getting love.

6. "The Disco Strangler" – The Eagles (2:46)

The tattoo reveal. The dread hits. 
This is the exact moment the fantasy collapses. The song title is practically a spoiler. It should needle‑drop sharply, maybe even from a nearby car radio.

7. "One Way or Another" – Blondie (3:31)

Helen tries to escape within the jam. 
She's trapped between cars, Robert is watching her, and she's trying to signal the trucker. The stalking energy of the song is perfect.

8. "Under Fire" – Jackie (3:30)

The CB‑radio cat‑and‑mouse. 
Tension builds. The police are on their way. Robert is getting agitated. The night is tightening around her.

9. "Do or Die" – Grace Jones (3:22)

The moment before the transformation. 
Helen steels herself. The sirens are close. Robert steps out of the car. The moonlight hits. The title says it all.

10. "I Was Made for Lovin' You" – KISS (3:57)

The transformation + chaos. 
Hear me out: the disco‑rock pulse is perfect for a werewolf metamorphosis in a traffic jam. It's sexy, dangerous, and unhinged — exactly the tone of a monster ripping through stalled cars under a full moon.

THEY WILL KILL YOU (2026) - Saw this one in the theater tonight with my daughter.  A well done dark comedy with lots of gore and some fun twists along the way, slightly reminiscent of READY OR NOT but not a copycat. A young woman, Asia, recently released from prison, tries to track down her younger sister whom she'd abandoned. The sister, Maria, was last reported working at a super-private, ritzy hotel called the Virgil, so  Asia gets a job there - only to find the hotel's exclusive guests are a bunch of immortal, unkillable, devil-worshiping cannibals.  Mayhem ensues.  Deserves an Oscar nod for "Best use of a severed pig head!"  4.5/5

Cartoon short, in which a snowman comes to life, gets chased by a dog, then goes ice skating... At the midmark, he finds an abandoned house & finds a calendar... He wants to see what July looks like, so he hides in a refrigerator...

Busy night, just enough time for a cartoon short... Not bad...
