The Bitter Stems (1956)

Lia Matthew Brown @ Screen Anarchy

The Freshman (1925)
Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews

The Mummy (2017)
Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
- Excerpt: One looks upon The Mummy, the first of a planned cinematic universe, with puzzlement on how Tom Cruise and everyone involved in The Mummy failed so spectacularly with this film on every level imaginable.
Pacific Liner (1939)
