For anyone who ever wondered what would happen to our planet should mankind simply vanish, the filmmakers at The History Channel offer a fictional examination of a world where all human activity has ceased, and Mother Nature returns to reclaim what is rightfully hers. A telling visit to the abandoned villages surrounding Chernobyl offers a haunting look at formerly-populated areas completely overrun by flora and fauna just twenty-two years after a nuclear disaster sent citizens fleeing in fear, while a trip to a the islands just off the coast of Maine guides viewers through a series of ghosts towns that have been virtually swallowed up by the encroaching nature. While the pyramids of Egypt could stand forever, would the structures of the modern era have the same, seemingly infinite, structural integrity? Scientists, scholars, and experts in biology, ecology, botany, engineering, archeology, and climatology offer informed opinions on how long the traces of mankind would remain, and vivid computer graphics allow us to witness the unthinkable with our own eyes. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
Forget the old anti-drug television commercial with the egg and the frying pan, the drug-addicted psychopath in Joe Castro's Jackhammer Massacre is all the ammunition that Nancy Reagan will ever need to convince youngsters to "Just Say No." A formerly successful businessman whose dangerous drug addiction leaves him jobless and indebted to a ruthless drug dealer, Jack Magnus is injected with a lethal dosage and left for dead by the pusher for failing to make a payment. Awakening to find that he is stronger than ever before, paranoid Jack embarks on a brutal killing spree that the city -- and the viewer -- will never forget. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

When music has become predictably homogenized and creative malaise begins to set in, it's innovators like Bruce Haack who strive to bring a newfound sense of experimentation and fun to their art -- to inspire future musicians to strike out on their own and see their craft in a different light. Though his remarkable sonic experiments have inspired everyone from Beck to Mouse on Mars, Haack still remains one of the least-known musical artists in American music history. A creator whose striking musical compositions and technological innovations can bring wonder to audiences both young and old, electronic-music pioneer Haack drew inspiration from all genres of music and has often been referred to as one of the founding fathers of techno. If music is what excites you and you've never heard of Bruce Haack, you owe it to yourself to check out this remarkable documentary detailing one of the true buried treasures of the music world. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
