| | 1. |  | Weekend
from New Yorker Video
Price: $18.95
Customer Review:
Don't buy this if you want a "story"- kind of movie, where everything makes sense. Some things in this movie make sense, some don't, and the story plays a minor role. There is nothing pretentious about it, it's just the kind of movie Godard likes to make. I don't agree with his political statements,... more info

| | 2. |  | Alphaville
from Homevision
Customer Review:
The action in Alphaville is set in a future where everything is run by the big computer Alpha 60. It's hard to take this film seriously, the futuristic vision is very 1960s: the fear of a computerized society where machines rule with cold rationality and so on. As an example of this vision it is... more info

| | 3. |  | Tetsuo: The Iron Man
from Fox Lorber
Customer Review:
This film is absolutely brilliant. Tsukamoto's genius shines through this gritty and rusted masterpiece. His way of filming is unique and beautiful to say the least. There is also some really impressive stop motion animation to be seen in this film, though its fairly brief. The sound track is also a... more info

| | 4. |  | Highway Patrolman
from Boulevard Films, Inc.
Customer Review:
I initially found out about this film from a trailer years ago in a small art house theater. The trailer showed a Mexican state patrolman desperately trying to make it up a hill towards burnt car wreckage dragging a damaged leg, clutching a huge assault rifle. "New Film From Alex Cox": I knew it was... more info

| | 6. |  | Return of the Blind Dead
from Starz / Anchor Bay
Customer Review:
The '72 release `Return of the Blind Dead' is writer/director Amando de Ossorio's second installment in the "Blind Dead" series. While many consider this to be an improvement on the first film, I personally think the first was the superior of the two. While the overall scope of the second is larger... more info

This film, I am Curious (Yellow) takes place in Stockholm during the Vietnam War . Historically it is rather accurate and unbaised . The major theme surrounding this film is that of boundaries ; those created and those imposed . The father is a framer , meaning that his specialty was building and... more info

from Fox Lorber
Customer Review:
I have a vague memory of seeing the live Hong-Kong version of Wicked City prior to watching the Anime version, and liking it. No idea why I got the viewing order switched around, but these things happen. I even remember liking this low-budget sci-fi stuntfest AFTER watching the Anime.
Funny how... more info

| | 10. |  | Solaris
from Fox Lorber
Customer Review:
Tarkovskij didn't like Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey, made just a few years before. Tarkovskij's SF, Solaris (1972), is both different and similar to 2001. Like 2001 the takes are very long and the tempo of the film is slow. Despite this, and despite the almost 3 hours, the film never becomes... more info
