Solar Crisis: unearthing a forgotten moment in 90s sci-fi

24 April 2012 5:53 AM, PDT | Den of Geek | See recent Den of Geek news »

It was expensive, and its cast included Jack Palance and Charlton Heston. So what was 1990’s Solar Crisis like, and why did it sink without trace…?

Home Alone. Total Recall. Die Hard 2. Dances With Wolves. If you’re old enough to remember the year 1990, then you may also remember that these movies were among its biggest hits. 1990 was also the year of movies such as Edward Scissorhands, Tremors and Goodfellas – movies that didn’t make it into the top 10 list of successes, but are still fondly remembered and enthusiastically discussed.

By contrast, who remembers Solar Crisis? Hardly anyone is the likely answer. What’s strange about the film’s anonymity is that, although its title generic title suggests a straight-to-video B-movie, it was anything but. In fact, with a budget of around $55 million, it wasn’t all that far behind Die Hard 2 ($70 million) and Total Recall ($65 million), the two most expensive movies released that year. »

Hart of Dixie Review: George Tucker Time!

24 April 2012 4:43 AM, PDT | TVfanatic | See recent TVfanatic news »

It took George and Lemon to split up for me to finally understand their relationship.

Throughout the opening season of Hart of Dixie, I've questioned why someone so kind and understanding would be engaged to someone to stern and demanding. But George's pre-New Orleans speech to Zoe in "Destiny & Denial" actually made a lot of sense:

There's no way Lemon could date someone like herself. The guy would just fight back and the couple would spent every night apart, one attending the opera and the other a jazz club, for instance.

And can you actually imagine Geore Tucker dating someone like George Tucker? It would stand a better chance of success, but it would also lead to nauseating moments where each side coos and tells the other to hang up... no, you hang up... no, you hang up! There's a reason they say opposites attract.

But when it comes out »

Sometimes They Come Back

Stars: Tim Matheson, Brooke Adams, Robert Rusler | Written by Stephen King, Lawrence Konner | Directed by Tom McLoughlin

Originally released in 1991 at what, at the time, seemed to be the height of the Stephen King adaptation frenzy following the success of 1989′s Pet Sematary, Sometimes They Come Back, originally made for Us television, was released straight to video here in the UK and was so successful that it spawned two sequels, one in 1996 and one in 1999.

Now making it’s UK DVD debut, Sometimes They Come Back tells the story of teacher Jim Norman (Matheson) who reluctantly returns to his hometown to take a job at the local school almost 30 years after he left. Bad memories linger in the town where his brother Wayne was killed by a local rebel gang and he escaped unharmed. Those responsible died in fiery car wreck, but sometimes the dead aren »

'Hart of Dixie' co-star teases tonight's 'rewarding' episode, the crazy finale

9 April 2012 5:00 PM, PDT | EW - Inside TV | See recent EW.com - Inside TV news »

Hart of Dixie’s Tim Matheson has a knack for quietly taking control. Take, for instance, our chat with him two weeks ago, when he started the interview with a question of his own: Did EW think The Hunger Games would make $100 million during its opening weekend? [Update: It did, Tim. And then some!] He thought such a prediction was bold.

But Matheson himself is familiar with bold acts — it’s how he got Gary Cole to sign on for a guest role in tonight’s episode as Ethan Hart, renowned heart surgeon and the man Zoe Hart (Rachel Bilson) once believed to be her father. “There »

'Hart of Dixie': Tim Matheson on the magic of Gary Cole and working with Rachel Bilson

9 April 2012 1:49 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »

There's a certain sense of comfort whenever Gary Cole shows up on a TV show -- you know he'll be great, so you can relax and enjoy the show. When the actor shows up in the Monday, April 9 episode of "Hart of Dixie" as the father of Rachel Bilson's Zoe Hart, you have "HoD" star Tim Matheson to thank.

"We've talked about this character all season long, and now he's got to show up," Matheson tells Zap2it. "Who can live up to that? He's got to walk in the door and he has to have credibility and to be able to go toe-to-toe with Rachel, who is one of the most true, honest, believable actresses I've ever worked with -- and one of the most courageous -- so it was tough."

Thankfully, Matheson picked up the phone and called his pal Cole, who immediately agreed to the job. »

DVD Review - Sometimes They Come Back (1991)

9 April 2012 10:36 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »

Sometimes They Come Back, 1991.

Directed by Tom McLoughlin.

Starring Tim Matheson, Brooke Adams, Matt Nolan, Chad Nyerges, Nicholas Sadler, William Sanderson and Robert Rusler.

Synopsis:

A teacher with a troubled past returns to his hometown with his family to start a new beginning. However, his past soon comes back to haunt him as he remembers the traumatic event of his older brother’s death.

Based on a Stephen King short story, Sometimes They Come Back is a classic horror story of a tormented man who is revisited by his past in an all too vivid manner.

The film opens with a voiceover narration, a technique I have my gripes with. However, I have come to accept that it is mostly necessary with literary adaptations, and in the case of Sometimes They Come Back, it actually works quite well in establishing the character of Jim Norman, a father who is returning to his home town, »
