It’s another beautiful sunny pre-spring day here in Ballard, so get out there and enjoy it while you can! And while you’re out there, be sure to stop into the store to pick up a movie or two before the evening cool turns to cold.

New release this week is the retro-blaxploitation comedy Black Dynamite:

“…the smoothest, baddest cat on the street. He’s a ladies’ man and the man with the plan. He’s also a former CIA agent out to avenge his brother’s death. Whether he’s taking down drug dealers or sweet-talking foxy mommas, he’s the man out to stop The Man. Take a wild ride from the mean streets of the ghetto to some funky clubs downtown, all the way to the “Honky House” with this bad-ass, tough-as-nails action hero.”

How can you not want to see this?

Other recent arrivals include the not-nearly-as-campy Death Wish, the original bad-ass vigilante flick starring Charles Bronson and his mustache, Hellraiser, To Catch A Thief, The Amityville Horror (original 1979 version), Die Hard 2, Mean Streets and Ronin. Huh. I just noticed we have a little mini Robert DeNiro section going on, with the above-mentioned Ronin and Mean Streets, plus Raging Bull  and Goodfellas.

Anyhow… sunny day, new releases, fresh air and an awesome assortment of movies right here in Ballard!
