His pole numbers falling, the Commander in Chief has a televised "conversation" with U.S. troops in Iraq (including Private Howdy Doody) to show the American people everything's just fine there . . . really!

Robert Bork hits the screen once again after his last failure to win an Oscar (hmm, that was an Oscar he was going for, wasn't it?). In this remake of the Gothic cult classic "The Strangler Supreme," he's "supremely" chilling in the roll made famous by that other master thespian, the Master of the Macabre, Vincent Price. Ingenue Harriet Miers's performance as the ravishing, but doomed, victim is, if it can be believed, more cloyingly sympathetic than even the divine Betty Davis's in the original.
"Her poise, her hair, her clothes! I nearly wet myself." (Pat Buchanan, theatrical critic at large)
"The choking scene was exhilarating! . . . well worth the price of admission." (David Brooks, NY Times movie critic)
