By Tim LucasPublished by Riverdale Avenue BooksI’m on record as being a big fan of writer and former Video Watchdog editor/publisher Tim Lucas. Full disclosure, I have known Tim personally for more than three decades, although not well, and we don’t speak often. I recently reviewed a couple of Tim’s non-fiction collections of film criticism and had a great time going through them.

By Tim LucasPublished by BearManor MediaA while back we reviewed a collection of film criticism by Tim Lucas and pronounced it good. At hand today is yet another collection of film criticism by Tim Lucas and we pronounce it even better!As before, by way of full disclosure, I should point out that I have known and admired Tim Lucas for several decades, although we’ve never been close friends. His late wife Donna used to sell me tickets to Cincinnati’s RKO Albee theater back in the 1970s.
