      <image:caption>You’ve probably seen this one multiple times. I know I have. It’s one of my favorite movies, and it made my list of Top Five Buddy Cop Films. When I first heard the argument that Die Hard was a Christmas movie, I thought, why not Lethal Weapon? Jingle Bell Rock plays in the background of the opening scene, and Christmas decorations are prevalent throughout Roger Murtaugh’s house.</image:caption>

The first is when the terrorists attack a neighborhood decorating for the holiday. The second is a fantastic shoot-out and chase inside a shopping mall. Yes, you read that right. A chase inside the mall! The movie might be light on story, but it is heavy on the thrills!</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - 5 Crime Fiction Movies For Christmas 2022 - The Silent Partner (1978)</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Silent Partner is a fantastic Canadian crime movie about a bank heist gone wrong. Elliot Gould is the everyman in a difficult situation caused by his own greed, and Christopher Plummer is the thief whose plan went bad. And John Candy is, well, an extra. A solid premise with an enjoyable ending. If you haven’t seen it yet, watch it now.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - 5 Great Pacific Northwest True Crime Novels - SON: A Psychopath and His Victims</image:title>
      <image:caption>(from the back cover) A classic from “the dean of true crime” (The Washington Post)—now with a new foreword—this 1983 masterpiece tells the incredible story of a Spokane, Washington serial rapist who was exposed as the handsome, privileged son of one of the city’s most elite families. For more than two years, a rapist prowled the night streets of the homey, All-American city of Spokane, Washington, terrorizing women, sparking a run on gun stores, and finally causing one newspaper to offer a reward—the calls taken by the distinguished managing editor himself, Gordon Coe. In March 1981, luck and inspired police work at last produced an arrest, and Spokane shuddered. The suspect was clean cut and conservative…and Gordon Coe’s son. For eighteen months, Jack Olsen researched the cases of Fred and Ruth Coe to try to learn not only what happened within that family, but how and why. He interviewed more than 150 people and built up a portrait not only of that extraordinary family, but of the mind of a psychopath. And searching the memories of the women in Fred Coe’s life, he unearthed a most horrifying question: What is it like to love and live with a man for years—and then discover he is a psychopathic criminal? In this “gruesomely spellbinding” (Glamour) examination of the mind of a psychopath and of the women—and men—who were his victims, Olsen delivers “a harrowing portrait…It has become fashionable with books about vicious crimes to compare them to Truman Capote’s In Cold Blood. Finally there is a book that deserves the comparison” (Richmond Times-Dispatch).</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - 5 Great Pacific Northwest True Crime Novels - BREAKING BLUE</image:title>
      <image:caption>(from the back cover) On the night of September 14, 1935, George Conniff, a town marshal in Pend Oreille County in the state of Washington, was shot to death. A lawman had been killed, yet there seemed to be no uproar, no major investigation. No suspect was brought to trial. More than fifty years later, the sheriff of Pend Oreille County, Tony Bamonte, in pursuit of both justice and a master’s degree in history, dug into the files of the Conniff case—by then the oldest open murder case in the United States. Gradually, what started out as an intellectual exercise became an obsession, as Bamonte asked questions that unfolded layer upon layer of unsavory detail. In Timothy Egan’s vivid account, which reads like a thriller, we follow Bamonte as his investigation plunges him back in time to the Depression era of rampant black-market crime and police corruption. We see how the suppressed reports he uncovers and the ambiguous answers his questions evoke lead him to the murder weapon—missing for half a century—and then to the man, an ex-cop, he is convinced was the murderer. Bamonte himself—a logger’s son and a Vietnam veteran—had joined the Spokane police force in the late 1960s, a time when increasingly enlightened and educated police departments across the country were shaking off the “dirty cop” stigma. But as he got closer to actually solving the crime, questioning elderly retired members of the force, he found himself more and more isolated, shut out by tight-lipped hostility, and made dramatically aware of the fraternal sin he had committed—breaking the blue code. Breaking Blue is a gripping story of cop against cop. But it also describes a collision between two generations of lawmen and two very different moments in our nation’s history.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - 5 Great Pacific Northwest True Crime Novels - RUBY RIDGE: The Truth &amp; Tragedy of the Randy Weaver Family</image:title>
      <image:caption>(from the back cover) On the last hot day of summer in 1992, gunfire cracked over a rocky knob in northern Idaho, just south of the Canadian border. By the next day three people were dead, and a small war was joined, pitting the full might of federal law enforcement against one well-armed family. Drawing on extensive interviews with Randy Weaver's family, government insiders, and others, Jess Walter traces the paths that led the Weavers to their confrontation with federal agents and led the government to treat a family like a gang of criminals. This is the story of what happened on Ruby Ridge: the tragic and unlikely series of events that destroyed a family, brought down the number-two man in the FBI, and left in its wake a nation increasingly attuned to the dangers of unchecked federal power.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - 5 Great Pacific Northwest True Crime Novels - MISSOULA: Rape and the Justice System in a College Town</image:title>
      <image:caption>(from the back cover) Missoula, Montana, is a typical college town, with a highly regarded state university, bucolic surroundings, a lively social scene, and an excellent football team — the Grizzlies — with a rabid fan base. The Department of Justice investigated 350 sexual assaults reported to the Missoula police between January 2008 and May 2012. Few of these assaults were properly handled by either the university or local authorities. In this, Missoula is also typical. A DOJ report released in December of 2014 estimates 110,000 women between the ages of eighteen and twenty-four are raped each year. Krakauer’s devastating narrative of what happened in Missoula makes clear why rape is so prevalent on American campuses, and why rape victims are so reluctant to report assault. Acquaintance rape is a crime like no other. Unlike burglary or embezzlement or any other felony, the victim often comes under more suspicion than the alleged perpetrator. This is especially true if the victim is sexually active; if she had been drinking prior to the assault — and if the man she accuses plays on a popular sports team. The vanishingly small but highly publicized incidents of false accusations are often used to dismiss her claims in the press. If the case goes to trial, the woman’s entire personal life becomes fair game for defense attorneys. This brutal reality goes a long way towards explaining why acquaintance rape is the most underreported crime in America. In addition to physical trauma, its victims often suffer devastating psychological damage that leads to feelings of shame, emotional paralysis and stigmatization. PTSD rates for rape victims are estimated to be 50%, higher than soldiers returning from war. In Missoula, Krakauer chronicles the searing experiences of several women in Missoula — the nights when they were raped; their fear and self-doubt in the aftermath; the way they were treated by the police, prosecutors, defense attorneys; the public vilification and private anguish; their bravery in pushing forward and what it cost them. Some of them went to the police. Some declined to go to the police, or to press charges, but sought redress from the university, which has its own, non-criminal judicial process when a student is accused of rape. In two cases the police agreed to press charges and the district attorney agreed to prosecute. One case led to a conviction; one to an acquittal. Those women courageous enough to press charges or to speak publicly about their experiences were attacked in the media, on Grizzly football fan sites, and/or to their faces. The university expelled three of the accused rapists, but one was reinstated by state officials in a secret proceeding. One district attorney testified for an alleged rapist at his university hearing. She later left the prosecutor’s office and successfully defended the Grizzlies’ star quarterback in his rape trial. The horror of being raped, in each woman’s case, was magnified by the mechanics of the justice system and the reaction of the community. Krakauer’s dispassionate, carefully documented account of what these women endured cuts through the abstract ideological debate about campus rape. College-age women are not raped because they are promiscuous, or drunk, or send mixed signals, or feel guilty about casual sex, or seek attention. They are the victims of a terrible crime and deserving of compassion from society and fairness from a justice system that is clearly broken.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - 5 Great Pacific Northwest True Crime Novels - BAD TRICK: The Hunt for Spokane’s Serial Killer</image:title>
      <image:caption>(from the back cover) Spokane's East Sprague Avenue is a long, cluttered and car-choked strip of flickering signs and boxy commercial buildings planted in cracked pavement where you can buy anything, including sex. The nastiest three-mile stretch of Sprague is call the Track. In the late 1990s it was a bountiful hunting ground for one of the nation's most vicious and prolific serial killers, Robert Lee Yates, Jr. He shot 13 people to death. Or maybe 17, or maybe many more. Like Jack the Ripper and the Green River Killer, he preyed upon prostitutes. He returned to the Track again and again, luring desperate heroin- or crack-addicted women into his car. Some of the women who survived these encounters remember him as a "good trick" -- gentle and generous. But other women he used sexually, shot in the head and tossed like trash, though not always in that order. For many years the killer hid behind his mask of the ordinary: husband, father of five, accomplished helicopter pilot and military man, middle-age</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The 5 Best Horror Movies of the 80s - 5. Maximum Overdrive – 1986</image:title>
      <image:caption>This movie earned a caveat to my Stephen King rule. It was written and directed by Stephen King based on his short story, “Trucks.” The film starred Emilio Estevez and pondered the question, “What would happen if all machines became sentient?” The events occurred after the earth crossed the tail of a comet—no further explanation was needed or offered. AC/DC provided music for the soundtrack, so saying it was awesome is redundant. It was a campy film and a delight to watch. Supposedly, Steven King didn’t like how it turned out and decided to never direct again. Bah. What does he know?</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The 5 Best Horror Movies of the 80s - 4. Shocker – 1989</image:title>
      <image:caption>Horror master Wes Craven wrote and directed Shocker. Horace Pinker made a deal with the devil to escape execution via the electric chair. Arrested for a series of murders, Pinker wants retribution on the man who brought him down. He comes back as pure electricity and wreaks mayhem. The soundtrack was fantastic, and Megadeth provided a kick-ass version of Alice Cooper’s “No More Mr. Nice Guy.” I see a theme here—heavy metal makes horror films better.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The 5 Best Horror Movies of the 80s - 3. Trick or Treat – 1986</image:title>
      <image:caption>Sticking with my music and horror theme brings Trick Treat in at number three. It’s a horror movie about a bullied metalhead who obtains a demo record from a recently deceased rock and roll superstar. Playing the album leads to startling results. The movie featured Gene Simmons as a radio DJ and Ozzy Osbourne as a reverend. Fastway provided a killer soundtrack (pun intended). The movie came out in 1986, so the premise of a guy getting bullied for listening to heavy metal was implausible. Metal ruled the airways by then—just look at MTV. Regardless, it remains a fun movie to watch around Halloween, especially if you’re a GenXer and a metal fan.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The 5 Best Horror Movies of the 80s - 2. Child’s Play – 1988</image:title>
      <image:caption>Okay, there’s no heavy metal here. This is just a fun horror movie that spawned several sequels. In the first film, dying murderer Charles Lee Ray used black magic to transport his soul inside a Chucky doll. A mother bought the doll for her son with horrifying results. Sure, it’s farfetched, but it’s a scary good time.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The 5 Best Horror Movies of the 80s - 1.     A Nightmare on Elm Street – 1984</image:title>
      <image:caption>When this movie came out, it scared the hell out of me. Freddie Krueger killed teenagers in their dreams to avenge how their parents murdered him. There’s no discussion about how he can get to them in their dreams. It doesn’t matter. We leap into the movie and roll with this flimsy plot device. Wes Craven wrote and directed this movie, and it was Johnny Depp’s debut. John Saxon also had a significant role in the film. It spawned multiple sequels, a crossover with Jason (from Friday the 13th), and had a 2010 remake.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The 10 Best Crime Fiction Movies of the 1980s - 10. A Better Tomorrow (1988)</image:title>
      <image:caption>I didn’t see A Better Tomorrow until the early nineties, but when I finally discovered it, I watched it several times in a short span. This was the first movie I ever saw directed by John Woo, and it was also the first movie I ever saw with Chow Yun-Fat. It knocked my socks off. It’s about a gangster who tries to reconcile with his cop brother.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The 10 Best Crime Fiction Movies of the 1980s - 9. Gorky Park (1983)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Gorky Park was based on the book of the same name by Martin Cruz Smith. In the film, William Hurt plays a Moscow police officer investigating a triple homicide. Hurt was fantastic in the role. It also stars Lee Marvin and Brian Dennehy—both were wonderful in their performances.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The 10 Best Crime Fiction Movies of the 1980s - 8. Manhunter (1986)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Manhunter was based on Red Dragon by Thomas Harris. Usually, I hate serial killer books and movies. Not because they’re scary, but because they’re played out. But this movie was terrific. Michael Mann directed it, and William Peterson of CSI fame starred in it. Peterson plays a former FBI profiler on the hunt for a serial killer. It’s also the first appearance of Hannibal Lecter (played by Brian Cox in this movie). Just fantastic.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The 10 Best Crime Fiction Movies of the 1980s - 7. Beverly Hills Cop (1984)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Beverly Hills Cop was so fresh when it came out. Eddie Murphy played a wise-cracking Detroit police officer who goes to California to find his friend's killer. It has an amazing soundtrack, laughs, and a solid crime story. This is a movie that can be watched repeatedly without losing enjoyment.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The 10 Best Crime Fiction Movies of the 1980s - 6. Running Scared (1986)</image:title>
      <image:caption>In the vein of Beverly Hills Cop, Running Scared features two wise-cracking Chicago cops. Billy Crystal and Gregory Hines look to score one big bust before retiring to Key West. I made a Top Five list of Buddy Cop movies, and this came in at number one, so how could it not make this list?</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The 10 Best Crime Fiction Movies of the 1980s - 5. Die Hard (1988)</image:title>
      <image:caption>What can be said about Die Hard that hasn’t already been said? How about—I love it!  Bruce Willis stars as a New York cop who battles a crew intent on robbing the Nakatomi Plaza of $640 million in untraceable bearer bonds. Alan Rickman was superb as the villain, Hans Gruber.  This move defined a sub-genre of action flicks—trapped man versus an army. Here are some I came up with off the top of my head: Under Seige (man on a ship), Under Seige 2 (man on a train) Con Air (man on a plane), Cliffhanger (man on a mountain), Sudden Death (man in a hockey arena), and The Raid (man in a drug house). Oh, yeah, all the Die Hard sequels, too!  The movie was based on Roderick Thorp’s 1979 novel Nothing Lasts Forever.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The 10 Best Crime Fiction Movies of the 1980s - 4. Fletch (1985)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Fletch starred Chevy Chase as a freewheeling reporter investigating how drugs are brought onto the local beach. His investigation takes a wild turn when a millionaire offers Fletch a large sum of money to murder him. The movie is filled with laughs, a great soundtrack, and solid mystery courtesy of the original novel by Gregory McDonald.   I can’t imagine how many times I’ve watched this one!</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The 10 Best Crime Fiction Movies of the 1980s - 3. Nighthawks (1981)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Sylvester Stallone and Billy Dee Williams play two New York cops on the hunt for a lethal terrorist who has shown up in the city. Rutger Hauer is menacing as the villain. Yes, the movie was made more than forty years ago, but it’s still taut and full of action.  If you haven’t seen this flick, you’re missing out!</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The 10 Best Crime Fiction Movies of the 1980s - 2. Code of Silence (1985)</image:title>
      <image:caption>A Chuck Norris movie is my second favorite crime movie of the ’80s? Hold on, hear me out. Code of Silence is a huge surprise. First, Chuck Norris is simply fantastic in it. Does he do karate in the movie? Some but only a little. Unlike many martial arts-oriented films, the story is the most important thing here. Even Siskel and Ebert (remember them?) gave this movie two thumbs up. I remember being a kid and watching that episode when they did that—it shocked me. Norris plays a Chicago cop who gets ostracized by his department because he wants to take down a dirty officer. He’s also trying to protect a young woman while a gang war breaks out.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The 10 Best Crime Fiction Movies of the 1980s - 1. To Live and Die in L.A. (1985)</image:title>
      <image:caption>To Live in Die in L.A. starred William Petersen and John Pankow as Secret Service agents looking to bring down a counterfeiter played by Willem Dafoe. The movie is intelligent, stylish, and full of action. It’s loosely based on the book of the same name by Gerald Petievich. This is one of the view times where I may like a movie better than the book. I do like the book, but it’s completely different. I found the movie's ending more satisfying, especially since it wasn’t a typical Hollywood feel-good wrap-up.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The Top Five ‘Buddy Cop’ Films Ever! - 5. Bad Boys (1995)</image:title>
      <image:caption>This movie ticks all the boxes above, but it’s more than occasionally funny. It’s a big-budget action flick starring Will Smith and Martin Lawrence as two Miami detectives investigating the heist of heroin from the police evidence room. The two actors had great chemistry in this movie, and the film hummed.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The Top Five ‘Buddy Cop’ Films Ever! - 4. Freebie and the Bean (1974)</image:title>
      <image:caption>I think this was the first buddy cop movie I ever saw, and it remains one of my all-time favorites to this day. Alan Arkin and James Caan play two bickering San Francisco detectives. They’re determined to bust a local crime boss. Their back and forth is hilarious. Many scenes will be considered politically incorrect in today’s environment, but anyone viewing it should be adult enough to understand that the world was different when this was made. If not, consider this your trigger warning. Now that I think about it, all these buddy flicks will probably upset someone.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The Top Five ‘Buddy Cop’ Films Ever! - 3. Stakeout(1987)</image:title>
      <image:caption>In Stakeout, Richard Dreyfuss and Emilio Estevez are two Seattle cops staking out an escaped convict’s ex-girlfriend (Madeleine Stowe). There’s a sweetness to this buddy cop movie that I’ve always loved. First, Dreyfuss and Estevez seem like decent guys who genuinely like each other as partners. The mischief they cause the other detectives as well as themselves is hilarious. Then the budding romance between Dreyfuss and Madeleine Stowe was terrific. I could rewatch this movie any time.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The Top Five ‘Buddy Cop’ Films Ever! - 2. Lethal Weapon (1987)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Even though I consider Lethal Weapon the standard for the buddy cop genre, it’s only my second favorite. It spawned three sequels and many clones. Mel Gibson and Danny Glover play Los Angeles homicide detectives. There are some holes in the story (how is Gibson immediately back on duty after so many shootings?), yet the story speeds along. I can’t begin to count how many times I’ve watched it. The interaction between Gibson and Glover is fantastic. At the beginning of the movie, they have an antagonistic relationship. Gibson was a loose cannon, and Glover was button-down. They also threw in some conflict due to the young guy/old guy dynamic. All of it worked like a charm.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Blog - The Top Five ‘Buddy Cop’ Films Ever! - 1. Running Scared (1986)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Running Scared is my all-time favorite buddy-cop movie, and it came out a year before the standard (Lethal Weapon). Gregory Hines and Billy Crystal play two Chicago detectives who are trying to make one major arrest before they retire to Key West. Hines and Crystal were both funny and cool in this film. They bounced off each other as if they were true partners. This is a movie I’ve repeatedly watched and would recommend to any crime fiction or buddy cop movie fan.</image:caption>
