Henry Jaglom, the best professional "home movie" maker in the business, produced, directed, wrote and starred in Always. Also appearing is Jaglom's ex-wife Patrice Townsend, here cast as...his ex-wife. Showing up one night at Jaglom's home to finalize the divorce decree, Townsend is persuaded to stay by her former husband, who hopes to talk her out of dissolving the marriage. Sideline characters include Melissa Leo as Townsend's uninhibited sister, and Alan Rachins as a reclusive type. Mostly improvised, Always attempts to offer up a few sobering truths about relationships. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

When Fenton (Keenan Wynn), the preeminent citizen of Granger speaks, the town listens. The town's high-school boys' basketball team has had a losing season, and he wants the coach fired.

The Folks at Red Wolf Inn is also known as Club Dead. It's also also known as Terror at Red Wolf Inn. It's also also also known as Terror House. It's also also also also known as Terror on the Menu. Perhaps you're beginning to glom onto the fact that its plotline has something to do with cannibalism. Linda Gillin plays a naïve young lady who wins an all expense paid trip to a spooky resort hotel. Guess what's on the menu -- or, rather, who. Veteran character actor Arthur Space pretends not to be embarrassed by the nature of his silly supporting role. Originally produced sometime in the late 1970s, Club Dead/Terror at Red Wolf Inn, etc. is available in prints of varying lengths and production code ratings. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Cameron Mitchell's most flamboyantly silly role came as the horribly disfigured ex-makeup-artist Vincent Renard in this cult variation on the horror classic House of Wax. The vengeful Renard runs the Movieland Wax Museum, where he kidnaps actors, gives them paralyzing drugs, and dips them in wax for use as exhibits. John Cardos and Scott Brady from the Al Adamson movies are here as detectives, but it is Mitchell's crazed performance which gives this tatty feature its campy charm. Director Bud Townsend returned with the cannibal comedy The Folks at Red Wolf Inn. ~ Robert Firsching, All Movie Guide
