vig·i·lan·te: any person who takes the law into his or her own hands, as by avenging a crime. A mainstay in the film world for decades, vigilantes come in all shapes in sizes and work their special brand of street justice for a variety of reasons. In some cases they operate just outside the law and work in secret. But then again there are those who work with the law and are not so secret about their bone-crunching ways. I guess you can say that vigilantes are like a box of chocolates; you never know what you’re gonna get…except the outcome which finds baddies getting what they deserve. Now there are…

G-S-T Top 10 – Scenes I Could Watch Over and Over and Over (Part II)
Since I had so much fun with our last post about a number of scenes I could watch on never ending repeat, her are 10 more I find equally pleasing. Note: As is the case with most videos on You Tube there is a wide range in both quality and legitimacy to these clips. In other cases, a specific scene I wanted was just nowhere to be found or if it was has been edited by some dope which ultimately diminishes the integrity of the clip and the point I was trying to make. Anyway, here they are…Enjoy!

Off the Netflix Queue…'The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day'
Being a huge fan of the original cult classic, I should have been excited to see the loooong rumored and even longer in-development sequel. Since the fallout of Troy Duffy, as depicted in Overnight (which is somewhat of a smear campaign), it seemed like no one would take a chance on Duffy and without significant funding the sequel would never have happened. But like the little engine that could, Duffy got the sequel that no one thought would see the light of day made. And the outcome? In short it was sooo much better than I was expecting from the dreadful looking trailers. Well I’d say I’m eating my words.

Off the Shelf…'The Boondock Saints'
Closing in on the “tentative release date” for The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day I thought this was the perfect time to do a write up for a film I like very, very much. To many people out there I suspect The Boondock Saints is a love it/hate it type of film. Any conversation I’ve had with friends in the past has either been, “Dude, that movie rocks” or “it was stupid“…and trust me I asked guys and girls alike and got a little of both from each party. Whether you like it or not, you have to admit that there is a pretty large cult following behind it. …

Sweet Trailer…'Boondock Saints II'
The day has finally come to get our first look at the highly anticipated sequel to one of the most revered cult classics, The Boondock Saints. I have posted the trailer below so please, sit back and enjoy… [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CmDhSNssaOI] Now I love the first Boondock Saints and it is one of the more played movies in my library. Despite my feelings about the original, I have to say that this looks a little cheap, possibly (like the case of Crystal Skull) too little, too late. And oh, how the might have fallen. The entire gang (sans Willem Dafoe) is back for this sequel but the years have not been kind…
