Hard working director, Richard Fleischer delivers a fairly standard action-drama that puts Charles Bronson in the spotlight. He’s surrounded by a score by Charles Bernstein and a script written by Elmore Leonard. Bronson is the titular Mr. Majesytk. He’s got himself a melon farm, and is looking to recruit some migrant workers to help him…

Terror by Night is the penultimate adventure of Basil Rathbone’s and Nigel Bruce’s Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson.

Gator (1976) – Burt Reynolds
Gator marked Burt Reynolds’ first-ever sequel. And it was also his first time settling into the director’s chair. Hal Needham joins him behind the camera, serving as a unit director, and Burt and his mustache star opposite Jerry Reed, who signs the title theme. Sounds alright? I’ll openly admit to being charmed by stunt man…

The First Power (1990) – Robert Resnikoff
I did Lou Diamond Phillips, and somewhere in Robert Resnikoff’s The First Power is a solid supernatural police thriller. But everything in it is painfully familiar, though some of it, like the visions characters have are strongly created. Phillips is Russell Logan a Los Angeles homicide cop who has been tracking a serial murderer christened…
Pursuit to Algiers (1945) – Roy William Neill
Holmes (Basil Rathbone) and Watson (Nigel Bruce) are at see in Pursuit to Algiers. Roy William Neill continues to direct and produce the entries, which they seem to be cranking out like clockwork.
