Get Mean

Tony Anthony (Comin’ At Ya!) and Lloyd Battista (Blindman) star in this thrilling finale to the highly successful “Stranger” series, which critics have compared favorably to Sam Raimi’s Army Of Darkness. Tony Anthony is often regarded as the Jackie Chan of “Spaghetti Westerns,” doing all his own crazy, hair-raising stunts!

– Mondo Digital

“This full-blown restoration courtesy of Blue Underground is outstanding!”

This week on Clip joint, we're hitting the tiles as greatpoochini clambers over the best film clips up on the roof

Panicking, protesting, prowling or seeking sanctuary – where would we be without a rooftop to clamber onto? Small wonder rooftops are such perfect settings for pivotal movie scenes. They even offer ready-made light sources, whether filled with sun or stars.

And what a view! Vistas of cities, vantage points for cross-haired surveillance, somewhere to hide but nowhere to run.

If a film needs a location to heighten the drama, then let's head to the roof. Powerful or terrified if we look down, desperate or free if we look up, the rooftop holds the boundary between heaven and earth. So this week's...
