The Merits of Sin: Blood Beat (1983) (USA)
December 11, 2018
Liam Gallagher once sang “Back beat. Word is on the street that the fire in your heart is out.” If he had said “Blood Beat” I would still be writing he and his brother hate mail.

The Merits of Sin: Kafan (1990) (India)
December 3, 2018
It’s 1990, it’s India and things are about to get rowdy. Cheap violence realized by cheaper special effects and some cheeky naughtiness are offered up along with the usual suspects of dance numbers and comic relief. You’re either into South Asian horror flicks or you’re not. That middle ground doesn’t exist here. At two plus … More The Merits of Sin: Kafan (1990) (India)
