KANSAS RAIDERS (Dir: Ray Enright, 1950).
A lively western adventure, set against the backdrop of the American Civil War.
This star vehicle for Universal contract player Audie Murphy, is a highly fictionalised account of the early career of the outlaw Jesse James. Here such historical figures as young Jesse (Audie Murphy) and his brother Frank (Richard Long) team up with Kit Dalton (Tony Curtis) and the Younger brothers under the tutelage of Confederate guerrilla Colonel William Quantrill (Brian Donlevy), in a kinda outlaw equivalent of Avenger Assemble (Josh Whedon, 2012).

THE LION KING II: SIMBA’S PRIDE (Dir: Darrell Rooney, 1998).
Walt Disney Pictures' The Lion King (Roger Allers & Rob Minkoff, 1994) would prove a massive hit for the studio. A straight-to-video follow-up was put into production almost immediately, eventually hitting Blockbuster shelves four years after the original.
Simba is now the over-protective father of cub Kiara, born at the end of the first film. When venturing into the forbidden Outlands, the curious cub encounters social outcast and heir to disgraced Uncle Scar's pride, Kovu. They strike a friendship which eventually turns to forbidden romance as Kovu's outcast family plan to use the pair to get to Simba and overthrow the king.

HELL BENT FOR LEATHER (Dir: George Sherman, 1960).
The Audie Murphy western wagon trundled on with Hell Bent For Leather. Yet, on this occasion the end product is a mite gritter than one would usually expect from a Murphy movie.
Wandering into homestead Sutterville after having his horse stolen, cattle man Clay Santell (Murphy) is mistaken by the townsfolk for a murderer known as Travers (Jan Merlin). He is pursued by a corrupt Marshall (Stephen McNally) who knows of his innocence but wants the glory of caching 'the killer'. Santell goes on the lam, taking with him hostage Janet Gifford (Felicia Farr), herself a town outcast due to the actions of her late father.

HERBIE RIDES AGAIN (Dir: Robert Stevenson, 1974).
Released 5 years after Walt Disney Productions' blockbuster The Love Bug (Robert Stevenson, 1969), this first sequel of the Herbie franchise reunited most of the creative team of the original movie. Disney Studios’ star director Robert Stevenson is once again at the helm, with production and screenwriting duties handled by Bill Walsh, from a story by Gordon Buford.
Following the events of The Love Bug, anthropomorphic VW Bug Herbie is now in the care of elderly Mrs Steinmetz (Helen Hayes). Her nephew, mechanic Tennessee Steinmetz, has left the car in his aunt's care while he visits Tibet. Former owner race driver Jim Douglas, meanwhile, is now competing on the European circuit. Sharing Steinmetz's ancient firehouse home is airline flight attendant Nicole (Stephanie Powers) and together with fledgling lawyer Willoughby Whitfield (Ken Berry) they must fight to stop the firehouse from falling into the hands of evil property tycoon Alonzo Hawk (Keenan Wynn). Hawk will stop at nothing, legal or otherwise, to procure the land for his planned skyscraper Hawk Plaza, but meets his match when he comes up against Herbie.
