Here are Jim Olenski’s top picks for local films available at his store, Thomas Video:
1. Deathbed
The epic tale of a bed that eats people.
2. Tainted
Not your average vampire movie.
3. Ouch
Stars artist Glen Barr as a man who obtains a potion that deadens his nerves, and decides to “experiment.”
4. Lunatics: A Love Story
Stars Ted Raimi (Sam’s little brother) in a twisted search for love.
5. Ammanon
Olenski calls this drama “one of best-written films I’ve seen.”
