1994 – The Chase

/ / Home Video
  • Title: The Chase
  • IMDB: link

The ChaseReleased on or around this date 20 years ago, The Chase is by no definition a good movie. However, despite its many faults the absurd road chase of falsely convicted Jack Hammond (Charlie Sheen), his rich-bitch hostage (Kristy Swanson), and the various cops, rednecks, and documentary crew following them to the Mexican border does provide some dumb-fun moments (along with one of the most preposterous sex scenes ever filmed).

Other than The Phantom, The Chase is arguably Swanson’s best movie role (especially for those of us who far prefer Sarah Michelle Gellar in the role of cheerleader turned vampire hunter Buffy Summers). At its best The Chase is a guilty pleasure fans of Sheen and Swanson can enjoy without using any more brain power than those who put the film together in the first place.

Available on DVD (but not Blu-ray), the only feature the home video version includes is the ability to watch the film in either Full Screen or Widescreen.

Sanders) to break into a Top Secret computer system in the Pacific Northwest.

Samurai Jack #5

/ / Comics

Samurai Jack #5The first arc of the new Samurai Jack comic comes to a close as Samurai Jack ventures into Aku‘s fortress to find the final remaining Tread of Time and come within a breath of fulfilling his destiny and making it home.

Other than to collect the arc in a graphic novel there’s no real reason to end the storyline so quickly as Jack’s quest to collect the various threads could have continued for quite some time. For better or worse the storyline is shortened, through montages in each of the last few issues, and Jack’s quest to reconstitute the Rope of Eons comes to an end.
