  Italian sexploitation reached a belated peak with 11 DAYS, 11 NIGHTS (1987), one of the biggest blockbusters from the late-day era of Rome-based sleaze! Helmed by the late, great Joe D'Amato (ABSURD/ BEYOND THE DARKNESS), this all-time flesh-flashing classic weaves a web of intrigue and deceit that, over 30 years afterwards, is still infinitely edgier than anything in 50 SHADES OF GREY! Featuring a landmark performance from the leggy and luscious pin-up and actress Jessica Moore (SODOMA'S GHOST), who is writing a book about her 100 lovers, not only is 11 DAYS, 11 NIGHTS a wild and wonderful ride of bondage, bare-boobs and broken households, but it is a strangely enriching slice of erotica that develops some genuinely appealing characters and an unexpectedly fetching heroine! See 11 DAYS, 11 NIGHTS in sinful HD and relive the glory days of girls and gams, Italian-style!

  Kevin Costner is the big name in The War, but the film belongs squarely to Elijah Wood, who plays his son. The film deals with the children of a Vietnam veteran in 1970 Mississippi; as their dad (Costner) tries to cope with post-traumatic stress disorder after serving in the war, the kids build a mammoth tree house in the woods--then must defend it against the local white-trash bullies. The film includes a particularly harrowing contest involving a swim across the reservoir of a decrepit water tower; still, director Jon Avnet can't avoid a certain "can't we all just get along" didactic message. That doesn't put a damper on the youthfully natural quality of the child actors, and Costner is actually quite winning as a sensitive, troubled soul. --Marshall Fine, Amazon.com
