Movies starring David Carradine

The Hunted (1967)

74 mins     TV Movie, Western      

So as I have mentioned before, the 1960s series "Cimarron Strip" is often split up and shown as stand alone movies here in the UK. And like many old TV series they work remarkably well as individual movies as whilst there wer...

Young Billy Young (1969)

89 mins     Action , Romance, Western      

Young Billy Young (1969) Robert Mitchum is the gun for hire who agrees to be sheriff of a small town as he is looking to get revenge on the man who murdered his son...

Maybe I'll Come Home in the Spring (1971)

74 mins     Drama, TV Movie      

I knew before I watched "Maybe I'll Come Home in the Spring" that it would be a struggle for the simple reason I wasn't even born in 1971 and this is very much a movie for those who experienced the hippie scene of that era wh...

The Long Riders (1980)

100 mins     Western      

"The Long Riders" is another movie about the legendary Jesse James and the James Gang, telling us a tale about their exploits and like so many leading us to the Northfield Bank Job. But to be frank it didn't really grab me, i...

Cloud Dancer (1980)

104 mins     Adventure , Drama      

That synopsis for "Cloud Dancer" seems like this is a movie with a lot going on from health issue, emotional issues as well as bad guys to contend with. But in truth the plot is weak with weak dialogue, weak drama and to be h...

Sundown: The Vampire in Retreat (1989)

104 mins     Comedy, Horror      

Sundown: The Vampire in Retreat: the residents of Purgatory have a secret behind their wide brimmed hats and layers of sun block, they are vampires...

Bird on a Wire (1990)

110 mins     Action , Comedy, Thriller      

"Bird on a Wire" is a movie which was made not because it had some wonderful original storyline, or a lot of special effects, although it does have a lot of chase sequences, nope it appears to have been made because someone w...

The New Swiss Family Robinson (1998)

90 mins     Adventure      

As a grown up who has loved "The Swiss Family Robinson" ever since I watched the 1960 Disney movie as a child my opinion of "The New Swiss Family Robinson" is that it sucks. Here is an update of the Johann David Wyss novel wh...

The Outsider (2002)

119 mins     Drama, Romance, TV Movie, Western      

I suppose if I had barely watched a western before I might be impressed by "The Outsider", heck it is certainly a pretty movie with plenty of pretty scenic shots. But anyone who frequents The Movie Scene will know I watch a l...

Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (2003)

111 mins     Action , Crime, Thriller      

When "Kill Bill: Vol. 1" was released in 2003 I chose not to watch it, not because I had anything against director Quentin Tarantino or thought it would be crap but because it was only half a movie. Now you may say that a lot...

Kill Bill: Vol. 2 (2004)

136 mins     Crime, Drama, Thriller      

So here we have it the second instalment of "Kill Bill", picking up where "Kill Bill: Vol. 1" left off. And to be honest everything I said about "Kill Bill: Vol. 1" could be recycled and said about "Kill Bill: Vol. 2" as they...

Brothers in Arms (2005)

85 mins     Western      

Okay I am at a loss for words as I have never comes across a western like "Brothers in Arms" before and I am so conflicted by it that I love and hate it. It is a case of which is more do I love it or hate it more and sadly I ...

Big Stan (2007)

105 mins     Comedy      

Like Adam Sandler, Rob Schneider is one of those comedians where the first time you see him you find funny but the more times you see him the less funny he gets. I put that down to growing up because whilst my tastes change i...

Crank: High Voltage (2009)

96 mins     Action , Comedy, Crime      

Now I thought that "Crank" was gratuitous yet entertaining but after watching "Crank: High Voltage" "Crank" seems tame in comparison. But I guess that was the intention because all "Crank: High Voltage" is is an excuse to tak...

Dinocroc vs. Supergator (2010)

87 mins     Horror, Sci-Fi, TV Movie      

Movie Review - Dinocroc vs. Supergator (2010) Have you heard the one about an enviromentalist, a scientist and an adventurer who pitch an escaped Dinocroc against a Supergator...
