Today we will be reviewing the following movies: Stevie, The Station Agent, Muppets Wizard of Oz, and Humanoids from the Deep(the original).
First lets talk about Stevie; This movie, starring the infamous Stevie Fielding and Steve James(director of Hoop Dreams), follows a reunion of a big brother advocate(James) and his problem child tens years later and hilarity ensues. Stevie now lives in a trailer next to the trailer he grew up in and his hobbies include catching snakes, fishing drunk, fighting, and taking advantage of female relatives and neighbors. This movie actually has the audacity to try and make you feel bad for a pedaphile and with some sucess I might add. Watch it if only for a glimpse into another world. C+
The next movie I will discuss briefly is the Station Agent. I'll just say this; it stars a midget living in an abandoned train station who befriends a talkitive Cuban, an artsy divorcee, and a mysterious little black girl. Oh yeah, the midget has unnatural man love for locomotives. B+
Moving on, The Muppets Wizard of Oz was a huge disappointment. Yeah it had lots more scenes with Pepe the Prawn, but it also had way too much Ashanti and a poor story line. This movie falls way short of previous Muppet movies and I fear the franchise may have peaked with Muppets from Space. D-
Lastly we will talk about Humanoids from the Deep. Tis movie is possibly the best B-grade horror movie ever made. Complete with gratuitous nudity, violent gore, and poor editing this movie has it all. It follows stars Doug McClure and Vic Morrow as they fight the humanoids who are killing unsuspecting males and then mating with the females in order to create a supreme race. Fucking kickass. A+

I forgot to add Yes Men. A great documentary about standing against big business and having fun while doing it. A
