And Who Didn't See That Coming?

Phobia (1980)

It's a suspense movie without the suspense. We all know who the killer is, there's no mystery there, and his ways of killing are just a little too silly to care. I went in trying to like it, but came out confused and disappointed.

Princess Daisy (1983)

Bring together Paul Michael Glaser, Ringo Starr, and Robert Urich in one film and you know you'll have a grand old time. It's a typical romance novel story that carries itself over a mini-series. Definitely a keeper.

Lights: The Miracle of Chanukah (1987)

I'm still at a loss to explain this movie. They take two well-known Jewish actors (Leonard Nimoy and Paul Michael Glaser) and cast them as the Romans. Then they take the story of the Miracle of Lights and warp it into something that barely resembles the original. Very weird movie that should only be sought out for the WTF factor.

The Cutting Edge (1992)

There's a reason why this movie has become a cult classic. Romantic fun directed by the fine talents of Paul Michael Glaser.

The Great Houdinis (1976)

I found this to be an interesting re-telling of Houdini's life. Alot of familiar faces grace the story as we work towards the end we all see coming.

Butterflies Are Free (1972)

This was a good adaptation of the play, though you can tell it was originally meant for theatre based on the sparseness of the set. It's a film I watch again and again.

Jealousy (1984)

I came in to see Paul Michael Glaser and quickly bailed out after his storyline was over. It's not even worth the trouble.

Trapped Beneath the Sea (1974)

A good adaptation of the real-life event, this is a film that works to explore just what happened that fateful day.

Single Bars, Single Women (1984)

This is a film of the whose who of television. The plot's mindless entertainment as it wanders through the search for love.

A Bit Dated, But Still Fun

Wait Till Your Mother Gets Home! (1983)

This movie explores gender roles in the changing society. Paul Michael Glaser plays a househusband before the role was accepted or cool. A friendly film that's fun to watch!

Fiddler on the Roof (1971)

A family-friendly musical that explores the changing face of the old ways as the new world comes calling. And a nice treat to see Paul Michael Glaser in his role.

Something's Gotta Give (2003)

The age of love, sometimes the best person for you is staring you right in the face. A plot that doesn't go in the typical directions, it was very satisfying in the end. And a real treat to see Paul Michael Glaser on film. He did a fine job as the ex-husband.

The Streets of San Francisco: Bitter Wine (1972)

Paul Michael Glaser, in his pre-SH days, played a character that has more to him than meets the eye. Family is important and sometimes we make sacrifices so that others can find happiness.

The Key to Rebecca (1985)

Adapted from the book, this is a wonderful mini-series that lends itself to both intrigue and dramatics. There are some interesting scenes, a few even pushing the boundaries of what can be shown on television, but they all combine to highlight wonderful performances by the entire cast. Check it out!

Depressingly Great!

Rage (1980)

Go into this movie with a high level of happiness because by the end you'll be depressed. A chilling movie which explores the mind of a rapist through denial and acceptance and recovery. David Soul gave an amazing performance as the lead character and the therapy scenes were particularly thought-provoking. A must-see!
