From Peckinpah and Schwarzenegger to Ulzana's Raid and Switchblade Sisters, Dave Franklin takes a politically incorrect look at the glories of twentieth century cinema.In this second volume of his Baby Ice Dog Movie Guide, he offers eight Fucked-Up Films, a bit of tit trauma, ten of the best Starring Debuts, some macho idiots, a tribute to Michael Douglas' prime, and a quick examination of some of the most over the top performances in movie history. Not to mention eco-horror, the odd catfight and a handful of ridiculous deaths.So grab a beer, settle back and enjoy…

Chick flicks. Brokeback Mountain. Bollywood. Superhero movies. Sophie's Choice. Sandra Bullock. Avant-garde musicals... If this sort of stuff is your cup of tea, then this isn't the book for you. Blokey film enthusiast Dave Franklin instead concentrates on the politically incorrect delights of Coffy, Magnum Force and Boogie Nights while paying tribute to the likes of Christopher Walken, Paul Schrader, 70's disaster movies and Brian De Palma. There's even some tongue-in-cheek appreciation of the God-like Steven Seagal. So settle back, forget about identity politics and the prevailing lefty narrative, and immerse yourself in a book that values celluloid entertainment above all else. Or as Rob Reiner says at the start of the immortal Spinal Tap: "Enough of my yakking. Let's boogie."

The fourth part of a politically incorrect series that mainly focuses on twentieth century movies. Everything from blaxploitation and action gods to Jodie Foster and the most controversial films ever made is covered.

"You like movies because you're one of life's great watchers." So says Woody Allen's irked, soon-to-be-ex-wife in Play It Again, Sam, obviously having had enough of his sedentary lifestyle. Hmm, I think she would have left me, too. But, hey, do a female's myriad charms really stack up against the corny delights of Cocktail, the vicious cynicism of The Sweet Smell of Success, the dark ferocity of The Thing, the fantastic imagination of Westworld, the perverted milieu of Happiness or the heartbreak of Kes? For these are just some of the films covered in the fifth part of this lewd, politically incorrect guide to the treasures of twentieth century cinema. Author Dave Franklin also throws in a bevy of bitches, the worst-ever holidays and a tribute to old men feasting on teenage flesh.
