Electronic Love/The Spy Who Came (1969)

Plot Synopsis:  Programmed to Love! A psychotic voyeur known as "Master" satisfies his overwhelming urge to peep by building himself an Electronic Lover - an elaborate computer-like machine that allows him to sit in front of a monitor while his oddball servant "Brother" sticks a remote camera into the windows of unsuspecting women. As Uta Erickson, Linda Boyce and other visions of pulchritude send the delirious Master into hallucinatory spasms, reality and illusion completely blur until he, like this film, goes tumbling off the deep end...  Plus: Join The Spy Who Came as vice cop Harry Harris (Warhol star Louis Waldon) falls into the clutches of an opium-addicted Arab and his "scientifically conditioned" female love slaves! (Think The Curious Dr. Humpp meets Olga's House of Shame.) Controlled by drugs, bondage, and an evil lesbian's brainwashing machine, the robot-like lovelies are all part of the Arab's bizarre blackmail scheme until horny Harry helps instigate an old fashioned love-slave rebellion! Watch these surreal science-fiction sexploitation gems and you too will feel an overwhelming compulsion to make love... make love... make love... ~ Amazon.com

Saw III - (2006) (film review/film review)

DVD Review

- trailer (flash)
- behind the scenes footage (flash)

Plot Synopsis:  In 2004, a low-budget horror film about a man who put people with moral failings into grisly, murderous situations became a huge hit. In 2005, the sequel scored again, upping the body count and the terror. In 2006, the franchise continued, with plenty of gore as well as an emotional story line that delved into the psychological makeup of the main characters. As SAW II concluded, Jigsaw (Tobin Bell) was dying. But that doesn't mean his penchant for playing games of torture and violence is ending. In SAW III, the murders start occurring again, and Kerry (Dina Meyer) is back on the case, although she thinks this time it might be the work of a copycat. She's only partly right: Amanda (Shawnee Smith), the only victim to have survived both movies, has joined Jigsaw as his apprentice, leading the way through a terrifying game involving Lynn (Bahar Soomekh), a doctor in an unhappy marriage, and Jeff (Angus Macfadyen), a distraught man who is having trouble getting over the loss of his son (Stefan Georgiou) at the hands of a drunk driver. Amanda has captured Lynn and placed her in a neck brace that is linked to Jigsaw's heart monitor; she must keep Jigsaw alive or else the brace will explode. Meanwhile, Jeff is sent on a dangerous journey on which he faces all the people involved in the light penalty his boy's killer received--and it is up to him whether he will seek vengeance or offer forgiveness. Helmed by SAW II director Darren Lynn Bousman and written by original SAW screenwriter and star Leigh Whannell (with a story by Whannell and SAW director James Wan), SAW III is an intricately designed, gruesome thriller with a hard-driving soundtrack featuring songs by Slayer, Helmet, and All that Remains. ~ VideoUniverse.com
