Things Are Going To Start Happening To Me Now

I feel like Navin Johnson when he saw his name in the phone book.

Okay, not really, but it is kinda neat anyway. You may have seen Dark Sky's recent "Drive-In Double Feature" DVD of SEARCH AND DESTROY and THE GLOVE at your local retailer.

Didn't you buy it? Well, if you didn't, you must not have turned the box over to look at the back. When an authority as notable as Marty's Marquee praises a film, you had best not take said praise lightly.

My first DVD blurb. I really am somebody now. Thanks to Richard Harland Smith and to Dark Sky for the shout-out. But, geez, would it have killed you to list the URL too? (Just kidding)

  2. That's excellent.

    "Action fans should have a pretty good time with this."

    It does sound like higher praise than "strangely entertaining", I suppose.

    Oh, well, frankly, Search and Destroy is a "pretty good time" and The Glove is "strangely entertainly", so I'd hate to sound like I was complaining.

    And frankly, people interested in movies like "Search and Destroy" would indeed do well to do a Google search and find Marty's Marquee, it's come in handy for me a few times.

  3. I know, it doesn't sound like a huge endorsement, does it? Hey, when I hurriedly wrote that review, like, nine years ago, I had no idea anyone would ever dig it up as a marketing aid!
