Puppy

2005, 1080hd

Johnny's comments:

Puppy is an oddball film about a woman (Nadia Townsend) who is about to commit suicide, but is saved by a man, only to wake up and find herself chained to his bed and with the man claiming that she is his wife. The woman tries to escape, but cannot, and over a period of time she develops a relationship with him, even though he is a complete oddball.

Interesting film that has it's moment, but I was attracted to it because of Nadia Townsend, who I found interesting in Headland, and she's great here and hopefully she'll get some roles in bigger films in the future. Plus, I love that scene where she leans over to kiss the man and her top falls just enough to reveal she is wearing no bra. Mmm...

Point of No Return

1994, 1080hd

Johnny's comments:

Point Of No Return is a 1994 thriller where former military man Grady (Marcus Graham), now in jail, attends the funeral of his brother and on the way back home, escapes custody and attempts to make sense of his brother's murder. His first stop is his old flame Kate (Nikki Coghill), who had moved onto his brother after Grady was jailed and gets her to reluctantly tag along as he heads to his brother's house. At the house, he finds Frank (John Arnold), who is ransacking the house looking for something. It turns out that Frank is looking for triggers for nuclear weapons that Grady's brother was flogging off to the Russian mafia. While searching the house, Grady finds a zone activated hidden camera which captures of all things, Grady's brother's death at the hands of North Korean 'businessmen' who also seem to be after the triggers. While trying to figure out what to do next, a delivery man arrives with a box with the triggers. Frank also arrives back at the house with the North Koreans and they want those triggers real bad. With the cops closing in on Grady, he might just get out of this mess alive.

Efficient thriller. That's about the best thing I can say about the movie because the plot is totally ludicrous. Spends the second and third act at Grady's brother's house which really shows how low-budget it is although Marcus Graham playing his non-twin brother with a dodgy wig and moustache does it better. It's not a bad movie, just one that wallows with very low intentions.
