For a long time co-writer/director John Boorman‘s 1981 film was, for many, the definitive take of Arthurian legend on film. In the four plus decades since, Excalibur feels a bit forgotten. Shot entirely on location in Ireland, the film won immediate acclaim for its viaual style, costume design, and cinematography. Cast with mostly unknowns (with a couple of notable exceptions) the film adapts Thomas Malory‘s Le Morte d’Arthur covering Arthur from conception through death.

  • Title: Delinquent Schoolgirls

After breaking out of an asylum for the criminally insane, three wacky inmates (Stephen Stucker, Bob Minor, and Michael Pataki) make their way to a strict all-girl boarding school (whose student body was cast mostly from porn stars and centerfolds of the mid 1970s leading to some pretty dreadful acting across the board), by way of pleasuring a sexually-frustrated farmer’s wife. Attempting to play up the humor by making the trio a bit more bumbling than dangerous, there’s still plenty of questionable activity here, much of it which can’t simply be laughed off.

1995’s Copycat is more notable for its casting of two female leads, neither relegated to a romantic interest, while still relying on the typical Hollywood serial killer script complete with plot holes and an absurd final act. Sigourney Weaver stars as former serial killer expert Dr. Helen Hudson who goes into seclusion after nearly being killed by the disturbed Daryll Lee Cullum (Harry Connick Jr.) following on of her lectures. Sometime later, having noticed a pattern in a series of killings around San Francisco, the agorophobic Helen reaches out to the police with her theory.

Snow White and the Seven Samurai

  • Title: Snow White and the Seven Samurai
  • IMDb: link

The Asylum’s 2024 mockbuster Snow White and the Seven Samurai is odd little low budget, straight-to-video, flick that seems to exist only because both Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and Seven Samurai have the number 7 in the title. Fiona Dorn “stars” as the daughter of a mobster (Eric Roberts) known for his heavy cocaine distribution (earing her the nickname Snow White – despite no one actually calling her that).
