"Entertaining crime flick in the vein of king of new York or Carlito's way. The film looks and sounds great especially during the club scenes. Comes with a handful of extra features and nifty artwork on the slipcover and sleeve."
"I love everything about The Queen of Hollywood! Standout performances from everyone. Highly recommended!"
"Great effort in this one. Gritty crime film, good acting, good enough script. Also, one of the last films Michael Parks was in. The slipcover is excellent, and there are some nice extra features."
"Director/writer Orson Oblowitz's brings is The Queen of Hollywood Boulevard. The title role is played by actress Rosemary Hochschild (Queen Mary) as a foul mouthed, no nonsense, tough as nails. . . strip club owner. On her 60 the birthday a unpleasant part of her past comes to haunt her. A equally ruthless Mobster played viciously by Roger Guenveur Smith (Duke)shows up wanting a loan past due. 25 years past due, he wants payment and interest or the club. This has been her life and she will not give it up easy. Things get ugly when they kidnap her son (Orson Oblowitz) The thing she loves most and won't take that sitter down. Crazy characters, scenarios and a lot of of blood is spread out in the fast paced movie! Wow From the first scene to last you will be glued to the screen. This is like film noir injected with a group project directed By Quentin Tarrentino and John Waters! It is that good. This is a real action crime movie done rite. The confrontation between Mary and Duke are epic. 2 over the top talent people really sunk there teeth into there roles and make this very believable. To see 6O year old Mary take a gun and blow some away or beat the hell out of them with her cane is really amazing and believable. This is Orson Oblowitz's debut as a director and if this is any indication on what's to come, I will be following his career. Also a fun part as Otto the son of Queen Mary! The supporting cast most notable Ana Mulvoy Ten as the innocent under age girl and her creepy pimp like guardian played very creepy by Jon Sklaroff. Oh and we can't forget about Punk Rock Charlie (Mathew Berkowitz) he deserves a movie for himself!"
"This was a blind buy for me and I have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed it. Picture quality looks great and I love the unique style of the slipcover. I'm glad i picked up."
"Another great release from Dark Star. Lovely slipcover and extras."
"This movie is quite gripping, and it really makes you feel like you are there with the lead actress as she navigates the seedy underbelly of Hollywood! The scenes are harrowing and they also rock by showing people things they normally would not see! The peerless VS transfer is immaculate as always and make the movie a real treat to watch! I highly recommend this one!"
"Worth a watch for Michael Parks’ 5 minute cameo final performance. Such a brilliant actor, always. The film is definitely a mixed bag, fulled of cliches — yet lifted by a sublime lead portrayal by Rosemary Hochschild. Neato slippy."
"Transfer is great"
"Orson Oblowitz's "The Queen of Hollywood Boulevard" (2017) is a gritty neo-noir crime drama that dives into the seedy underbelly of Los Angeles. The film follows Mary, a strip club owner played by Rosemary Hochschild, as she fights to protect her business and confronts a violent past on her 60th birthday. With its neon-soaked visuals, grindhouse aesthetic, and a commanding lead performance, the movie pays homage to exploitation cinema while carving its own path. Though its pacing and tone may not appeal to everyone, fans of raw, character-driven stories will find it a compelling watch."
