The Adventures of Superseven (2011)
This show 'gets it"
The Adventures of Superseven is just straight up a hoot! It filters all those spy shows and movies from the sixties and seventies like Get Smart, Man From Uncle, and I Spy and the colorful eurospy films, mixes in Mexican Wrestler and superhero films and just makes it all somehow come together!! The action is good, the acting consistently funny and spot on and it actually has more than talking heads like most web series. Real stunts!! Real fights!! and--hot babes!!!! Jerry Kokich who plays Superseven does it with a perfectly straight face that is hilarious. And Olivia Dunkley who plays Sandra West has a killer delivery that had perfect comic timing. Last, but not least, Anne Leighton who plays the grease monkey Sparky with a Walter Mitty like dream life is as perfectly timed a comedian/actress as there can be. And she manages to be sexy while smeared with car grease!
Praey (2005)
Most Dangerous game meets Psycho
I saw this film at the New York festival last June and was impressed by the intensity of the narrative: with a small cast and a small budget Ms. Sinclair draws the viewer in and never lets you rest as the heroine has her life destroyed and then is thrust in a circumstance where she has to confront the monster who has made her life a living hell. It takes a side trip into ghost story that, while unexpected is right on in keeping it from being just a take on M.D.Game. Her low budget works for her in keeping things tight and paranoid, it never feels cheap, only focused. It is one of the best woman in jeopardy films Ihave ever seen.
