CONSENSUS: “Sure, this is a cult film, but it a good one. Death Race 2000 is so much better than the modern remake. The dark humor is wonderful. It is a really fun movie to stream.” INSTAFLICKA INDEX 3.67   Paul Bartel (Cannonball!) directs this sci-fi cult classic about the deadly and brutal Transcontinental Road Race in which rivaling teams

CONSENSUS: “One of the great science-fiction movies of its era, Planet of the Apes, is an American treasure. In retrospect this movie probably seems a bit hokey given its lesser sequels, but if you return to the original, you will not be disappointed. It is a wonderful epic adventure, led by the aptly-chosen Charlton Heston.”

CONSENSUS: “Repo Man is sort of an enigma. It is a cult film. Some will love it, some will hate it and most will be just wonder ‘what the fuck was that.’ Still, it is relatively amusing.”

CONSENSUS: “It is an OK movie for the right audience, but that right audience is likely to be very, very small. Viewers not in love with Mark Duplass may have trouble finishing this unique and very indie adventure to the Red Planet.”

We watched the mumblecore in space film, Mars; the charming

The 90′s science-fiction TV show Sliders, starring Jerry O’Connell, is now streaming on Netflix Instant. This show, which ran for five seasons, was equal parts bad and enjoyable.

CONSENSUS: “This movie is a classic. John Carpenter nailed it with this tense and intriguing extraterrestrial horror tale.
