“Alone in the Dark” is an excellent thriller with elements of humor and horror. Jack Palance, Donald Pleasance, and Martin Landau Are all wonderful in the film. Shout! Factory has given the film a great 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.
American Rickshaw is an absolutely insane piece of action trash filmmaking by Italian director Sergio Martino. Cauldron Films has given the film a proper Blu-ray release.
Escape from New York introduced the world to one of the ultimate badass protagonists Snake Plissken and every futuristic action film made afterward owed it a debt for finding the right formula. Shout!Factory has given the film its due with its collector’s edition.
Prince of Darkness has some good material in it, but it is one of Carpenter’s lesser efforts overall. The collector’s edition by Shout!Factory features good technical specs and excellent supplemental materials.
A Breed Apart has a fantastic cast but the script fails to create enough tension to make a lasting impression. Shout!Factory has given the film a release.
From Beyond the Grave is an enjoyable anthology film from Amicus Studios that features the great Peter Cushing.
