The Erotic Witch Project wins the dubious honor as the first finished parody out of the woods and onto home video. This silly soft-core spoof follows the adventures of three college girls who take a couple of video cameras into the woods to find the legendary erotic witch. After finding sex toys…

"Remembrance of the Daleks," the final Doctor Who story to feature the titular mutant cyborgs, is a particularly notable adventure for the way it ties the plot into the very first story, "An Unearthly Child," made 25 years before. It is 1963, and the seventh Doctor, Sylvester McCoy, arrives in London with new companion Ace (Sophie Aldred), where two Dalek factions are engaged in a deadly search for the Hand of Omega. Ace quickly proves herself adept with high explosives, and…

A truly amazing movie. The plot is awful, the acting is ridiculous, but the women in this movie are well worth the price. Laurie Wallace is good. Darian Caine is ok (and only appears briefly in the "future"). But, the evil witch played by Paige Richardson is amazing. Jet black hair, black latex gloves and thigh-high boots that she never takes off, porcelain skin....oh, lord. Seeing her along with the Uber-sexy Misty Mundae and lithe, tan and beautiful Ruby LaRocca is worth the price of…

I've been following Doctor Who since the show was restarted by Russel T. Davies in 2005. Having seen every episode, I can honestly say Planet of the Dead is quite easily the worst of the bunch. The hour running time is too long by at least fifteen minutes. The action is unsuspensful, the story uninteresting and inconsequential and the dialogue is often cringe inducing. I don't know what is with the Doctor Who writers' obsession with plucky young women, but they really do need to give…
