Despite the sleazy 42nd Street setting, Fear City (1984) is a bit tame (and very straightforward) for  Abel Ferrara . The cinematography is really nice, the cast is solid, the music is great, and overall it's entertaining, though.  Recommended for fans of  Maniac   (1980) [ review ],  Vice Squad  (1982) [ review ], and  10 To  Midnight   (1983) [ review ].

Unmistakably a product of the '80s, Voyage Of The Rock Aliens (1984) doesn’t make a lick of sense, but it provides plenty of mindless fun. Combining sci-fi, new wave, rockabilly, dance numbers, and a weird cast, VOTRA doesn’t quite click—owing to its undercooked “kitchen sink” approach (seriously, this might be the most random movie ever made)—but it has an undeniably goofy charm. I liked the film even more on a rewatch with an audience. Incredibly entertaining trash. Recommended for fans of Phantom Of The Paradise (1974) [ review ], The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975), and Earth Girls Are Easy (1988) [ review ].
