The History of the V4 engine in Cruisers,…
So, 1981 is the year. Yamaha Virago is gaining territory for the Japanese in the cruise ship market, while Harley-Davidson is nervously smoking on the sidelines, and even this case seems to be about to…
1974 Lamborghini Countach – amazing custom without Italian…
Sometimes you come across something so out of the ordinary that you literally boil with excitement, surprise and admiration at the same time. Something like a Lamborghini or a Ferrari from the 80s or 90s…
Sven Hansson’s Lincoln Cosmopolitan: Lead sleigh with seagull…
Unfortunately, cars like the Predicta or Charlie Ryan's Lincoln are too famous. There is a lot of information about them, and although their rich history and life path are extremely interesting, they are sometimes described…
The Junkman (1982): A cult film with original…
Henry Blythe Halicki was an unusual man. He had a good business, he had enough money for dozens of cars and at least for all the equipment that was required for the filming of the…
Kargoyle: The hearse from George Barris’ workshop
Back in the days when you couldn't draw anything on a computer, Drag-U-La probably surprised thousands of viewers of The Munsters series. But no matter how iconic the grobo-dragster is, it seems to me that…
Cruise (2018): Summer, Dragstrip, Retrowave

The Big Town Blues (1987) – You Can’t…
The amazing thing is, this movie once passed me by, and I discovered it for myself only now. Ben Bolt completed the work of Harold Becker, having completed the 1987 film The Big Town (Big…
Hey Good Lookin’ (1982) – if only Salvador…
The full moon is a time of strange, cozy nightmares, sometimes taking on cinematic forms. Animation is the freest and craziest of these forms. I would call Ralph Bakshi one of the craziest and most…
Unrealizable Grease Dream, rockabilly from the USSR (1987-1992)
The cold wind brings back memories, ruffles the fur on the back of his neck. He whispers terrible spells: glasnost-perestroyka. It's 1987 outside the Delorean window, Teddy Bear is just preparing a sledgehammer for the…
Crossroads (1986) or How to Become a Bluesman
I really like it when in one work of art you can find small references to another creation of mankind - and you walk along them, as if on bread crumbs, from one island of…
Johnny Reno – Full Blown (1985), Sax Maniacs…
I became a kind of fan of Comrade Rino after the Roadracers movie and decided to collect his entire discography, starting with The Juke Jumpers band. And although Johnny's discography is very small, it turned…

I had 99 problems today, but I'm finally home and I can watch a movie before going to bed. And an interesting thought came to me: after all, I write articles about albums while listening…
The Outsiders (1983) – briolinschiki through the eyes…
Interesting fact: Rumble Fish and The Outsiders were filmed "back to back" - that is, somewhat roughly speaking, Francis Ford Coppola shot these two films simultaneously in 1982. Like the Fighting Fish, The Outsiders is…

This is the content that I really want to see on this site! Reviews of vinyl records, with music that no one had posted on the Internet before! This is the kind of website I…
Christine (1983): Your first and only car
Stephen King is overrated. Damn, a little more - and it will become my watch phrase. But seriously, King does not take quality at all, but quantity. A kind of Daria Dontsova from the horror…

Border Radio is a 1987 black-and-white independent film about California musicians. The plot is that one musician Jeff Bailey from San Diego gets into trouble. Jeff goes on the run to Mexico, it's only 4…
Rumble Fish (1983) is a stylish film adaptation…
I have one film that I personally could not understand - the Fighting Fish of 1983. From Francis Ford Coppola, the director of the Godfather, by the way. The synopsis says that this is 'a…
The Loveless, a biker movie starring Willem Dafoe
Let me introduce you to the movie Without Love (The Loveless) of 1981. The second role of Willem Dafoe, his first major, and at the same time the first film in which he is mentioned…
