NOT dead:

Malibu Bay Films, which earlier Monday reported the death of actress Julie Strain, is now saying that the B-movie queen is still alive.

"The information we received from a trusted source of the community on the status of [Malibu Bay Films] icon #julie strain was found to be FALSE!" the film company posted on Instagram. "We deeply apologize for needlessly upsetting anyone as well as ourselves! We have asked THR for a retraction as well. Thank you and God Bless Julie & family."

I guess we should still pray for Kevin Eastman then.

Rocky Johnson (The Rock's dad) passed away. Bumped into him at some random expo a few months back. Seeing what he looked like, I guess this doesn't surprise me. Rest easy.

First time for me hearing about this man. Curious about a movie he starred in though: Branded to Kill

Any of you seen it yourself? Seems like many film people have a huge fondness for it.

Great Rumbler · « **Reply #494 on:** January 22, 2020, 05:30:57 PM »

It's been a long time since I've seen it, but I liked it. Thought Youth of the Beast was a little better though.

Branded to Kill is not my favourite out of the Seijun Suzuki / Shishido collab though it's undeniably a cult film with some clout (Ghost Dog from Jarmusch lifted a couple of sequences and ideas from it). Lots of great visual ideas but it devolves into typical 60es manic lack of focus and love of deconstruction for the sake of it. It's the less straightforward of the lot.

Detective Bureau 2-3: Go to Hell Bastards!, Youth of the Beast, Gate of Flesh (all directed by S.Suzuki), A Colt is my Passport (T.Nomura) are all great. He did two Battle without honor or humanity directed by K.Fukusaku that I'm unsure I've seen or not but they are probably worth their while considering the director.

It's all crime / hitman / yakuza films, if it needed to be said.

Edit : Actually Gate of Flesh is more of a drama in the streetwalking world.

As well as giving rise to The Goodies team, ISIRTA shows the roots of the Monty Python team very clearly, with Cleese, Chapman and Eric Idle all regular script contributors.
