The Call(2020) Korean movie review
Recently, there has been a significant amount of attention paid to Korean movies, particularly after the success of films like "Train to Busan" and the web series "Squid Game." These examples demonstrate the unique stories and exceptional filmmaking that Korean creators consistently produce. I recently watched "The Call" on Netflix and was not disappointed with the movie.

Space Scares Me: "Apollo 18"
I love sci-fi, I love horror, but space... "Space Scares Me" is a series that is part review, part liveblog, about space movies I've been too chicken to watch until now. Previously: "Gravity" (2013) and "The Martian" (2015)

20 Million Miles to Earth
***20 Million Miles to Earth is a science fiction monster movie from the Fifties, made more charming and more exciting by the fact that it dispenses with the typical "guy in a rubber monster suit" in favor of really impressive stop-motion animation by Ray Harryhausen, the pioneer, and legend in this field. (To slightly misquote Stephen King's seminal nonfiction study of horror, Danse Macabre, Harryhausen use to "pal around with a guy named Ray Bradbury" when he was a kid.")

The Time Traveler’s Wife (2009) - Film Review
In theory, this film should have been right up my street. A time-travelling romance adapted by the Oscar-winning screenwriter Bruce Joel Rubin (Ghost) and starring Rachel McAdams (Mean Girls, The Notebook) and Eric Bana (Hulk, The Other Boleyn Girl) as a couple living out their love story in the wrong order. Henry DeTamble, a librarian, possesses a unique gene that lets him involuntarily travel through time. His wife, Claire Abshire, finds it difficult to cope with it.

The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)
The Day the Earth Stood Still is an exemplary example of Cold War jitters. Made in 1951, based on the story "Farewell to the Master" (the particulars of which I can remember very little about at this point), it begins with a glowing "flying saucer" with a classic look, landing on the Washington Mall. A ramp cooly slides from the surface, as the military and curious onlookers surround the alien craft. A being in a weird silver suit and a helmet covering its face points a weird object with a springy antenna at the crowd, but is promptly shot by some Army grunt and falls to the ground. His robot, Gort, a hulking mass of Fifties sci-fi aluminum comes to life, and strides like Karloff's Creature down the ramp. A visor slides back, and a ray beam melts the grunts' rifles.

The battle of balance and conflict
Every day, our world rolls forward in the interweaving of tearing and balancing. The balance of ecological, humanistic, and social aspects has become a beautiful pursuit, but there are too many visible or invisible evil forces behind the balance that are destroying... Nowadays, it is fortunate that environmental protection and ecological civilization have been taken seriously at the national level. When we talk about environmental protection in China, this 2000 documentary - "Balance" - is naturally impossible to ignore. I believe many people have also seen it because of Lu Chuan's "Cocoanuts", so today I briefly introduce it and recommend it to you.

Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956)
Invasion of the Body Snatchers is a Cold War-era Red Scare parable about giant seed pods" from outer space. They suck the mental and physical attributes of sleeping humans and disgorge identical replicas of them. We know this because of the smooth, featureless body that is laid out later on a pool table, just waiting to assimilate the features of the bartender. This happens in Santa Mira, California. Where else?

Close Encounters of the Third KInd (Director's Cut)
***I've seen a UFO. Up close. Matter of fact, I've seen a couple of them. I don't know, specifically, what that means about ME, but, as far as the influence of the film Close Encounters of the Third Kind on m life, it WAS one of the first films from infanthood (along with Time After Time (1979) and Salem's Lot (1979), and the TV adaptation of the stage play of The Elephant Man (1982)) to indelibly etch its scenes into my subconscious. Especially the mantis-like alien that first appears during the final scenes of the film.
