The Black Shield of Falworth
Tony Curtis, Janet Leigh
Universal Studios, 2000
Where is this movie on DVD?
Why hasn't this movie been released on DVD? Curtis' other great movie the Vikings was available years ago, why not this movie? There are too many bogus movies being made available, now is the time to start seriously considering offering classics such as these on disc. ...

The Last Starfighter
Lance Guest, Dan O'Herlihy
MCA Universal Home Video, 1992
Great movie when young
I'm glad to have grown up with this great fantasy movie. I loved the story that you could actually be called up into the reality that the game is just hinting at. This even has a liking to Ender's Game in that regard. A fun video.

Halloween 3 - Season of the Witch
Tom Atkins, Jadeen Barbor
Good Times Home Video, 1996
The night he doesn't need to come home...
After browsing through the many 1-star rating reviews, I came to realize what I already knew. Most people condemn this movie for the simple reason that Michael Myers was not featured. As I've read, the original plan of the producers was to make a new Halloween story ...

Imitation of Life
Lana Turner, John Gavin
Universal Studios, 1998
Awesome
I have seen this movie dozens of times, but, loaned it out to someone and they did not give it back. Each time I see it, I cry like a baby. I recently lost my Mother 8-15-2008, and after the funeral some body made the comment that her funeral was one of the most ...

The Dead
Anjelica Huston, Donal McCann
Vestron Video, 1992
Achingly faithful to the great short story
It's a great sadness this movie has not been converted into a readily available DVD. It turned me on to the James Joyce short story of the same name and now both live in my mind, frequently inspiring me to dwell on how the shared memories of our lifetimes make up who ...

Fail Safe
Dan O'Herlihy, Walter Matthau
Sony Pictures, 1996
We have nothing to fear
But perhaps the machines we have built to protect us.
"Fail Safe" was filmed in 1964 at the height of the Cold War nuclear anxiety. The premise is that our US technology mistakenly labeled a troubled passenger aircraft as an incoming Soviet bomb and scrambled our ...

Waterloo
Rod Steiger, Christopher Plummer
Paramount Home Video, 1991
One of Steiger's most underappreciated roles in an epic film...
In the tradition of the cinematic epics like Kubrick's "Spartacus" and Mann's "Fall of the Roman Empire," Bondarchuk's "Waterloo" succeeds in depicting Napoleon's desperate and final bid for power and glory. Steiger, no stranger to roles that have consistently ...

Love Cheat Steal
John Lithgow, Eric Roberts
Sony Pictures, 1995
WWW reviews LCS
A stylish keep 'em guessing thriller with top-notch talent and clever twists and dialogue. The writer-director really knows his stuff and keeps the pace moving. Roberts is excellent as are many of the secondary characters. Unfortunately, the girl isn't very good. ...

Virgin Queen
Bette Davis, Richard Todd
20th Century Fox, 1998
Davis plays Queen Elizabeth I for a second time
This is Davis' second film in which she plays Queen Elizabeth I of England. Personally, I thought 1939's "Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex" was better, but it is hard to compare the two since this film takes place 15 years earlier in history than "Private Lives" ...

The Tamarind Seed

Avid Home Ent, 1998
The Tamarind Seed
It is a crying shame that today they do not make movies as good as this one!!!!!!!!! I am an Omar Shariff fan and he is excellent in this film. I have always admired the vocal technique of Julie Andrews and did not think too much of her acting ability. I am wrong ...

At Last
My siblings have been looking for this on DVD or even VHS for years and I finally found it on here for them, they were all excited to receive it. It is a long time favorite among the family since we were younger.

Macbeth (Aniv)
William Alland, Edgar Barrier
Republic Pictures, 1998
Another Great From the Master
I own this film on VHS and on Laserdisc and I am hoping that it will soon come out on DVD. Certainly there are some technical problems with the production, but it is a 1948 film so some of that can be excused. Welles vision of MacBeth has the texture and feel of a ...
