56 Films have been rated or reviewed by Nick McB.

Hated (1994): The reason this doco is so short is there really wasn\'t too much to GG Allin. A minor cult phenomenon at best, but fills up 50 minutes ok.
Wadd: The Life and Times of John C Holmes (1998): Excellent life and times doco (if you\'re interested in this kind of stuff).
Mr. Majestyk (1974): Excellent actioner. What is not to love about movie where the hero is a melon farmer, and played by Charles Bronson!?
Cyrus (2010): The lame, punch–pulling ending was very disappointing.
Mother (2009): Gripping and disturbing, and up to the quality of the director's previous films.; DVD $19.95
Crows O (Kurôzu zero) (2007): A return to form, suggesting Miike is better when he is less experimental (and self–indulgent), at least judging by his recent work.
Cannibal Ferox (Make Them Die Slowly, aka Woman From Deep River) (1981): While there is some slicing and dicing of naked bodies in this movie, the directors achieve nothing in that department compared with the censor who went wild with his knife.
Bloodsucking Freaks (1978): So reprehensible it has to be seen to be believed. A cult classic. It features a series of appalling set pieces with a very satisfying finale.
Ebola Syndrome, The (1996): Absolutely hilarious. Goes way beyond bad taste in every sense. Everyone out there who thinks "political correctness has gone made" needs this movie as an antidote.
Story of O, The (1975): Overrated and dull. Those unaware of Radley Metzger's The Image may find it "kinky" and "disturbing" but Metzger really demonstrates how to demonstrate those qualities.
