It wasn't perfect, but I thought the film wasn't so bad. The interesting thing about the film is that there were "Sin eaters" historically and that makes for an interesting story.Awakenpictureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17485094715407886093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5725114693508127137.post-35689007121578897102009-03-09T23:22:00.000-06:002009-03-09T23:22:00.000-06:00I'm probably a little too hard on him, because I'v...I'm probably a little too hard on him, because I've only actually seen 1 MLJ film, <I>The Last Sin Eater</I>. But boy, was it a doozy. Awful produciton values, boring as all get out, characters I loathed and the only "Christian" in the film is a guy who spouts disjointed Bible verses at random, but somehow his influence converts a whole town of pagan cult-members.<BR/><BR/>And Don, re: <I>Little House on the Prarie,</I> I guess we can't knock MLJ on following in his father's footsteps. Maybe he'll do a <I>Highway to Heaven</I> inspired film soon.jonnyflashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06417844872416400954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5725114693508127137.post-1407735233148997742009-03-09T22:47:00.000-06:002009-03-09T22:47:00.000-06:00They are 'snoozers' because they are chick flicks....They are 'snoozers' because they are chick flicks. yes. also, they are lumped in with 'Little House on the Prairie-type shows', ie. snoozers.<BR/><BR/>I think one of his films might be next on the docket to review!Donhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13313680625499151719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5725114693508127137.post-78888822177726208382009-03-09T10:36:00.000-06:002009-03-09T10:36:00.000-06:00Is it that you think of ML, Jr's film as snoozers ...Is it that you think of ML, Jr's film as snoozers because they're chick flicks or is it something else?<BR/><BR/>I've watched some of his films and thought they were good. A lot of women love his Love Come Softly films.<BR/><BR/>I'm curious about it because they do pretty well as TV movies that might succeed along with Little House on the Prairie type shows.Awakenpictureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17485094715407886093noreply@blogger.com
