Direct-to-video Action Films
Direct-to-video or straight-to-video refers to the release of a film, TV series, short or special to the public immediately on home video formats rather than an initial theatrical release or television premiere. This distribution strategy was prevalent before streaming platforms came to dominate the TV and movie distribution markets. Because inferior sequels or prequels of larger-budget films may be released direct-to-video, review references to direct-to-video releases are often pejorative. Direct-to-video release has also become profitable for independent filmmakers and smaller companies. Some direct-to-video genre films (with a high-profile star) can generate well in excess of $50 million revenue worldwide. Reasons for releasing direct to video A production studio may decide not to generally release a TV show or film for several possible reasons: a low budget, a lack of support from a TV network, negative reviews, its controversial nature, that it may appeal to a small n ...

Vietnam War Films
This article lists notable films related to the Vietnam War. Post-war films After the Vietnam War ended in 1975, there was an increase in American films that were more "raw", containing actual battle footage. A FilmReference.com article noted that American filmmakers "appeared more confident to put Vietnam combat on screen for the first time" during that era. These American post-war film representations have generally been more realistic and gritty, such as ''The Deer Hunter'' (1978) and ''Apocalypse Now'' (1979). There were several broad stereotypes about American Vietnam veterans. One stereotype were thinly disguised versions of the real Lieutenant William Calley, notorious as the officer responsible for the My Lai massacre of 1968, the so-called "psycho vet" who were portrayed as bloodthirsty psychopaths who wreak havoc upon their return to the United States. Such portrayals of the "psycho vet", while acknowledging atrocities in Vietnam, most notably blamed the atrocities up ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
