Werner Herzog's sequel to an Abel Ferrara film starring Nicolas Cage and Eva Mendes belongs to the genre of drug fueled fantasies like “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas:” the imagery is just laugh out loud. We've never seen Cage...
Werner Herzog's The Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans , from a William M. Finkelstein screenplay, represents a form of pleasure for which this writer, in his recreational critical guise, rarely advocates, let alone enjoys personally: that of really bad film art. After all, to find pleasure in bad art is to participate in a lesser brand of spectatorship, defined by the location of incriminating...
Moviemaker ABEL FERRARA has quit WESLEY SNIPES' new action film to concentrate on FOREST WHITAKER and 50 CENT's new movie JEKYLL & HYDE.Ferrara was due to direct Snipes...
Abel Ferrara's documentary "Chelsea on the Rocks" appears to have been made for a remarkably select audience: namely, people who have lived in the Chelsea Hotel and know everybody there already. For them, this film will be a nostalgic revisiting of old friends and neighbors, of familiar hallways with wrought-iron railings and oft-told tales.

Much as I enjoy his movies, I suspect that Werner Herzog and I have very little in common. I’m not German, have never had a mustache, and am not an acclaimed director. In fact, I suspect that our lives probably only intersect on one tiny point. Neither of us have seen Abel [...]
Saturday Night At The Movies A special midnight double feature for Halloween! By Dennis Hartley Part 1: Art is a strange hotel Bill and Andy’s excellent adventure: Chelsea on the Rocks Since 1883, the Hotel Chelsea in New York City has been considered to be the center of the universe by bohemian culture vultures. It has been the hostelry of choice for the holiest of hipster saints over the years,...
A review of "Chelsea on the Rocks," a less-than-illuminating documentary about the fabled Chelsea Hotel, longtime home to artists and other New York characters. By Seattle Times movie critic Moira Macdonald.
This trailer for "Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans" looks like a straight to dvd disaster. Nic Cage has been a cheap parody of himself for years, only now he's doing a cheesier version of that film from 1992 celebrating unchecked dudely power and desire as realized by Abel Ferrara and Harvey Kietel. This confirms the creepy vibe I've associated with Werner Herzog. "His soul's...
One New York institution (Abel Ferrara, b. 1951, the Bronx) regards another (The Hotel Chelsea, b. 1883, West 23rd Street) in Chelsea on the Rocks . The nominal topic here is the end of an era at this red-brick Queen Anne Historical Place, where a timeline of America's greatest artists ha...
It's hard both to deny and describe the crazy cinematic potion that has flowed off the marketing materials and clips for Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans thus far. I cannot align these entertaining yet toxic vibes with another recent film, and many critics who see it---and like it---seem to share the task. It's as if the voodoo weirdness that floats throughout pockets of the troubled region...
