Jericho Mansions (2003)
There seems to be several pieces missing in this puzzle.
There seems to be several pieces missing in this puzzle. A phone call from a sister intensifies a landlady's inexplicable mistreatment of her slow agoraphobic building superintendent. The butt of jokes among the local cops, she once again accuses him of theft but nothing is ever found. But after thirty years, the super's confusing dreams of what appears to be a bad spaghetti western suddenly come into focus when he becomes the focal point of a brutal murder. Has he murdered someone while sleepwalking? The tenants bear witness to his wild swings of passivity and passion.
Wildly confusing at times, it all becomes crystal clear in the end when we discover why the landlady is sure the super has been stealing from her for years. When at last, he comes to understand who and what he is, will he actually know what it is he wants? When the ones who desert it, get what they deserve, will he get what he wants and deserves? For those who willing pay attention and stick this movie out, they will enjoy having all their questions answered.
Highlander: Endgame (2000)
For fans of the TV Series only,
For fans of the TV Series only, this movie should have been the tie between the movies and the TV series, but fails in all accounts. The story line of Duncan being reunited with his old love had promise, and the stories of the other immortals recruited by Kell which were hinted at sounded like fertile ground for another story thread, but all fall to the wayside to make room for the whimpering climax which abruptly ends the story with even more loose ends than it had in the beginning.
The story was awfully choppy and I happen to catch the trailer once again and noticed that it contained scenes not in the movie. What happened. Overall, I hope the DVD will contain the missing scenes or at least some narrative explaining the gaps in the story. Overall, I would recommend this only to fans of the TV series.

Quintessential spaghetti horror film; it even stars Barbara Steele, the queen of such films.
Quintessential spaghetti horror film; it even stars Barbara Steele, the queen of such films. Every is there, the over-blown scenery including a medieval castle, a cast of delectable victims, the couple in love, and lots mysterious, unexplainable deaths, and as a bonus a memorable soundtrack. Is it the work of a maniacal killer(of course) or something more?
