“The Man From Hong Kong” is an extremely enjoyable Seventies martial arts B-movie from Ozploitation auteur Brian Trenchard-Smith. Twilight Time has brought over the film and some special features from the Umbrella Entertainment release.
“Nosferatu in Venice” is a nearly incomprehensible film that was besieged by the antics of actor Klaus Kinski. Severin Films has given the film a great technical presentation and one of the best special feature documentaries we have seen this year.
“The Stunt Man” is a well loved film from 1980 by director Richard Rush. Starring Peter O’Toole in one of his best performances alongside Steve Railsback and Barbara Hershey, it still holds up as a surreal and satirical comedy about filmmaking. Severin gave the film a release in 2011.
“The Bloodhound” is a slow paced update on Poe’s classic “The Fall of House of Usher.” Arrow Video have given the film a fan pleasing release on Blu-ray.
“Black Widow” is a tightly constructed and well paced film noir shot in CinemaScope. Twilight Time gave the film a release.
“Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood” is still the best film from 2019. It isn’t even close. We revisited the film after reading “Helter Skelter.”
“Death has Blue Eyes” is a truly off-the-wall C-grade film from Greek director and writer Nico Mastorakis. Arrow Video has released a Blu-ray of the film that will satisfy fans of Nico.
Warner Archive continues their fantastic work restoring Val Lewton films with their release of “Isle of the Dead” starring the iconic Boris Karloff. Fans of Lewton will want to add it to their collection for the beautiful new transfer sourced from a 4K scan.
Louis Malle’s sweet natured crime drama Atlantic City, starring Burt Lancaster and Susan Sarandon, is celebrating forty years. Paramount Pictures have given the film a Blu-ray release.
