ONE VOICE (not Ellsworth Monkton Toohey): NOTE: Last minute addition! - Kieslowski's Decalogue on Blu-ray - see HERE. A few negatives this week but we've also been doing a lot of Blu-ray -> Blu-ray comparisons and those results are, generally, positive usually comparing favorably (or equally) with the opposing region's counterpart. Specifically, Arrow's new The Honeymoon Killers Blu-ray matches up very well with the older Criterion - presentation and extras. The same can be said for Eureka Classics' Blu-ray of Byron Haskin's Robinson Crusoe on Mars - excellent a/v and a new commentary. Shout! Factory's new Blu-ray of Donald Cammell's multi-layered thriller White of the Eye is a very solid package - as is the Arrow UK counterpart. Sony's new Cinema Series Blu-ray of Luc Besson's memorable Leon: The Professional showcases the overly green issues of the previous Blu-rays and is a definite improvement and, optionally, housed in a fancy clear case. Kino give us Jonas Mekas' poetic Walden and Lost, Lost, Lost on separate Blu-rays in an attractive avante-garde package loaded with commentaries and extras. BFI brings us Murder at the Cathedral on Blu-ray - a dramatization of the religious/political climate of twelfth-century Britain. I've always thought very highly of Woody Allen’s Shadows and Fog and despite some artifacts on the Twilight Time Blu-ray we still recommend! Broken Lance is a fabulous western - Spencer Tracy, Robert Wagner, Richard Widmark - and get a Blu-ray release with commentary. A must see for the genre. We've revisited Peter Watkins' Punishment Park, David Cronenberg's A History of Violence and Elio Petri's The 10th Victim Blu-rays - all three representing plenty of value although we will be comparing the middle entry to the UK 1080P transfer soon. Catch My Soul is a real oddball production - a rock opera adaptation of Shakespeare's Othello from 1974 - brought to Blu-ray with some insightful supplement back-stories. Being a big Barbara Steele fan I thoroughly enjoyed Severin's new Nightmare Castle - actually a triple feature of a smattering our gal's horror work - there are issues - no original audio, US, shorter, cuts - and minor damage - still we encourage a Blu-ray purchase for the cumulative value. A Hard Day is an amusing and intense, South Korean, thriller on pristine Blu-ray. My impact of Gus Van Sant's Paranoid Park was minimized by the unnecessary widecreen-ification of the film on, the only known, Blu-ray edition. Bah-Humbug. A shame. But my biggest disappointment lies with the new Blu-ray of one of my favorite 50's science-fiction popcorner's This Island Earth which has serious issues both with the authoring (7 email confirmations of the audio reversion to German at each Chapter stop - boo!) and the technical limitations of the video transfer. Pass and hope for better... soon. On DVD Gregory shows us the improvement of the new Warner SD of The Big House - not only a better appearance but substantial extras too. I enjoyed the topic of Beltracchi - The Art of Forgery investigating some of the mystique of the high-end art market. Dartmoor Killing has beautiful visuals but the horror suffers from some style overwhelming narrative, IMO... ..:“I think a plan is just a list of things that don't happen". Have a scintillating week!


	THIS WEEK's REVIEWS / COMPARISONS
	The Honeymoon Killers BD - Martha Beck (Shirley Stoler) is sullen, overweight and heartbreakingly alone. Desperate for affection, she joins Aunt Carrie’s Friendship Club and strikes up a correspondence with Ray Fernandez (Tony Lo Bianco), a suave, charismatic smooth talker who could be the man of her dreams—or a wicked con artist bound for trouble. Based on a true story and filmed in documentary-style black and white, The Honeymoon Killers is a stark portrayal of the desperate lengths to which a lonely heart will go to find true love, from brutally immoral killings to a passion that transcends all bounds. Arrow Blu-ray Release Date: November 9th, 2015 Robinson Crusoe on Mars BD - Don't let the dreadful title put you off - this is an interesting curiosity, a relatively straight science fiction adaptation of the Defoe novel, with special effects that don't stand up to today's standards, but some remarkably accurate observations about Mars. An astronaut (Mantee) is stranded on the Red Planet with just his monkey Mona and has to survive (finding oxygen in the rocks, water at the poles, etc). Along comes an alien (Lundin, good performance, lousy monster suit) who is given the name Friday and together they work out a living relationship. It's become something of a cult classic, but deserves a wider audience. Eureka Blu-ray Release Date: November 23rd, 2015 Shadows and Fog BD - Woody Allen’s oxymoronic German Expressionist comedy, Shadows and Fog (1991), features an impressive array of stars including Mia Farrow, John Malkovich, Donald Pleasence, Kathy Bates, Jodie Foster, Lily Tomlin, John Cusack, and Allen himself as a classic nebbish fumbling through a Kafkaesque experience involving a serial killer, a circus, a brothel, and a vigilante mob. Gorgeously photographed in black and white by the great Carlo Di Palma (*The Red Desert, Blowup) and featuring the music of Kurt Weill. Blu-ray Release Date: November, 2015* White of the Eye BD - A stylish take on the woman in jeopardy and mad killer genres, White of the Eye poses the question, What would you do if you suspected your loving husband to be a serial killer? Arizonan Paul White (David Keith) is an expert at installing high-end stereo systems in the homes of wealthy citizens. He has been married to Joan (Cathy Moriarty) for ten years, having seduced her away from a violent criminal, Mike DeSantos (Alan Rosenberg). A series of brutal murders of well-to-do women has citizens of Paul and Joan's town on edge. When evidence at the scene of the second murder points to Paul, Joan tries to fend off the suspicions of police detective Charles Mendoza (Art J. Evans), even as she begins to see signs of violence in her husband that confirm the accusation. Director Donald Cammell, who co-wrote the script with his wife China, offers a fragmented narrative characterized by quick cutting; subjective, handheld camera work; and optical tricks that suggest the unraveling of Paul's mind. Shout! Factory Blu-ray Release Date: November 17th, 2015 Broken Lance BD - In this Western with curiously Shakespearean undertones, Matt Devereaux (Spencer Tracy) is a ranch owner who has tried to raise his sons to carry on the fierce, hard-working spirit that helped make him a success. However, as a consequence, he never learned to show them affection and treats his boys little better than the hired help. Joe (Robert Wagner), is Matt's son by Native American wife Senora (Katy Jurado). Because of Joe's mixed ethnicity, he is treated prejudicially by his three half-brothers, Ben (Richard Widmark), Mike (Hugh O'Brian), and Danny (Earl Holliman) -- all Caucasian sons of Matt's first wife. Blu-ray Release Date: November, 2015 This Island Earth BD - Let us start with a plot that rarely gets more appealing for a young adventure-seeking lad of any era: Dr. Cal Meacham (played by tall, dark and absurdly deep-voiced actor Rex Reason) is a handsome scientist, able to dabble in nuclear energy and expertly pilot jet planes. Cal and his Jimmy Olson-like sidekick Joe, played by Robert Nichols, have received a strange metal-paged instruction manual on how to build an "interocitor". This reviewer looks skyward rubbing his jaw as an eerie sequence of single organ notes plays in the background "hmmmm... interocitor you say". Blu-ray Release Date: October 30th, 2015 Nightmare Castle BD - This eerie Gothic thriller offers two Barbara Steeles for the price of one. Steele first portrays the wife of a deranged scientist (Paul Muller) whose latest experiments involve electro-stimulation of human blood. When the mad doctor discovers his wife is having an affair, he tortures, disfigures and kills her alongside her lover, then removes and preserves the hearts of the victims, using their blood to restore youth and beauty to his own lover. When the madman discovers that his late wife left all her wealth to her mentally unstable sister (Steele again, a blonde this time), he quickly sets about courting and marrying the poor girl, then proceeds to drive her completely mad in order to inherit her fortune. It may be an easier task than he predicted -- too easy for comfort, in fact -- since the honeymoon is attended by the spectral presence of the murdered lovers who have risen from their own ashes to avenge their deaths. Blu-ray Release Date: August 18th, 2015 Paranoid Park BD - Paranoid Park is a swooping skateboarding free zone where young men learn to fly. It’s also the title of Gus Van Sant’s most recent film, a haunting, voluptuously beautiful portrait of a teenage boy who, after being suddenly caught in midflight, falls to earth. Like most of Mr. Van Sant’s films “Paranoid Park” is about bodies at rest and in motion, and about longing, beauty, youth and death, and as such as much about the artist as his subject. It is a modestly scaled triumph without a false or wasted moment. Blu-ray Release Date: April 28th, 2008 Catch My Soul BD - Screenwriter John Good's rock & roll adaptation of Shakespeare's Othello is a real oddity and features some surprisingly good tunes. Set in the American Southwest, Othello is a wandering evangelist who happens onto Iago's remote commune. There he marries the lovely Desdemona much to the chagrin of Iago, who also loves her. The conniving commune leader then manages to quietly pressure Othello until murder and tragedy ensue. Blu-ray Release date: November 17th, 2015 A Hard Day BD - A pitch-black comedy with style to burn, A Hard Day depicts a day-in- the-life of a cop that goes from bad to worse to cursed. Driving back from his mother's funeral, homicide detective Gun-soo (Lee Sun-kyun) runs over a man in a dark rural street. In a moment of desperation, he dumps the body in a coffin alongside his mother. The disappearance of his accident victim is investigated by a colleague, and, making matters worse, a witness steps forward, a detective named Park (Cho Jin-woong). Park's motives are less than savory, and he begins issuing threats that become more vicious and hit closer to home. Eventually Gun-soo decides to face Park head-on once and for all. Blu-ray Release date: November 24th, 2015 A History of Violence BD - Based on the graphic novel by John Wagner and Vince Locke, A History of Violence is the tale of Tom Stall. Tom is a loving family man and well-respected citizen of a small Indiana town. But when two savage criminals show up at his diner, Tom is forced to take action and thwart the robbery attempt. Suddenly heralded as a hero who took the courage to stand up to crime, people look up to Tom as a man of high moral regard. But all that media attention has the likes of mobsters showing up at his doorstep, charging that Tom is someone else they've been looking for. Is it a case of mistaken identity or does Tom have a history that no one knows about? Either way, someone's about to find out if there's a history of violence. Blu-ray Release Date: February 10th, 2009 Walden + Lost, Lost, Lost BD - Jonas Mekas is a filmmaker, artist, poet and writer. He remains one of the most influential figures in independent and underground cinema. Born in Lithuania in 1922, he arrived in 1949 in New York where he co-founded the legendary Film-Makers Cooperative, Film Culture Magazine and Anthology Film Archives, as well as supporting emerging independent voices of the New American Cinema in his column in the Village Voice. He also pioneered the diary form of filmmaking, documenting many of the leading figures and events of the New York art and culture scenes of the 1950s and 60s. Blu-ray Release date: November 17th, 2015 Leon The Professional (CS) BD - As visually stylish as it is graphically violent, this thriller directed by Luc Besson concerns Mathilda (Natalie Portman), a 12-year-old girl living in New York City who has been exposed to the sordid side of life from an early age: her family lives in a slum and her abusive father works for drug dealers, cutting and storing dope. Mathilda doesn't much care for her parents, but she has a close bond with her four-year-old brother. One day, she returns from running an errand to discover that most of her family, including her brother, have been killed in a raid by corrupt DEA agents, led by the psychotic Stansfield (Gary Oldman). Mathilda takes refuge in the apartment of her secretive neighbor, Leon (Jean Reno), who takes her in with a certain reluctance. She discovers that Leon is a professional assassin, working for Tony (Danny Aiello), a mob kingpin based in Little Italy. Wanting to avenge the death of her brother, Mathilda makes a deal with Leon to become her professional. Sony (Cinema Series) Blu-ray Release Date: October 27th, 2015 Murder at the Cathedral BD - This astonishing adaptation of T S Eliot's classic verse drama recounts the love-hate relationship between twelfth-century British monarch Henry II and the Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Beckett. Featuring a cast of mainly non-professional actors, the voice of Eliot himself, and music by the internationally renowned composer Làszló Lajtha, Hoellering's exquisitely realised film tells the story of Beckett's temptations before his murder in Canterbury Cathedral in II70. Blu-ray Release date: November 23rd, 2015 The 10th Victim BD - That old phrase "you always hurt the one you love" takes on a new meaning in this satiric comedy. In the 21st Century, government and the private sector have come together to create a solution to human aggression by giving it a profitable outlet. "The Big Hunt" is a popular worldwide game show in which contestants, identified as "Hunter" and "Victim" and chosen at random by computer, chase one another around the globe; the player who can kill his counterpart is declared the winner and moves on to another match. After ten wins, the player is retired from the game and gets a cash prize of one million dollars, but few have managed that feat. Blu-ray Release Date: September 13th, 2011 Punishment Park BD - While Peter Watkins' films of the 1960s reflected the political turmoil and tumult of that decade, 1971's Punishment Park offered a disturbing look at the backlash against leftist activism which emerged in the wake of such events as the 1968 Democratic Convention in Chicago and the shootings at Kent State University. Blu-ray Release Date: January 23rd, 2012 The Big House - Not the first of the prison pictures, but the one that truly put the genre on the map. Playboy Kent (Robert Montgomery), driving drunk, kills a couple of pedestrians and is sentenced to a 10-year manslaughter term. His cellmate is forger Morgan (Chester Morris), a tough but essentially decent con; the cell-block leader is Butch (Wallace Beery), whose outer oafishness hides a cruel, calculating mind. Butch lives for the day that he can bust out and doesn't care who gets hurt along the way. Panicking, Kent "rats" on Butch and is murdered during the climactic breakout as a consequence. DVD Release Date: March 11, 2014 Dartmoor Killing - Peter Nicholson co-writes and directs this independent British thriller starring Rebecca Night and Gemma-Leah Devereux as two young women who set off on a hiking weekend. Susan and Becky (Night and Devereux) are old friends who travel to Dartmoor for a much-needed escape from their daily lives. However, an unexpected encounter with a young man on the moors leads to an experience they could never have anticipated... DVD Release Date: October 19th, 2015 Beltracchi - The Art of Forgery - For nearly 40 years, Wolfgang Beltracchi fooled the international art world and was responsible for the biggest art forgery scandal of the postwar era. An expert in art history, theory and painting techniques, he tracked down the gaps in the oeuvres of great artists - Max Ernst, Fernand Léger, Heinrich Campendonk, André Derain and Max Pechstein, above all - and filled them with his own works. He and his wife Helene would then introduce them to the art world as originals. DVD Release Date: November 17th, 2014
