Ziam
★★½ Watched

My quick rating - 5.3/10. Thought I’d give a Thai horror flick a whirl tonight with Ziam; a zombie-action hybrid that throws elbows; roundhouses; and an unsettling number of fish at the genre. If you like your undead with a side of Muay Thai; then at least on paper; this one’s for you.

But they weren't in t=on the joke that he…

★★★ Watched

My quick rating - 6.1/10. When I got an email from Robert LaSardo himself asking me to check out his directorial debut; American Trash; my jaw hit the floor. This is a guy I’ve been rooting for since the early ’90s; back when he’d pop up just long enough to get thrown through a window by Steven Seagal. But over the years; I watched him evolve; especially with roles like Gang Related; where it became clear LaSardo was a lot more…
