DVD Description
Quentin Tarantino's blockbuster follow-up to RESERVOIR DOGS is a breathtaking tribute to old dime store novels about small time hoods and dangerous criminals. It features deftly woven plotlines, creating a mythic Los Angeles underworld of drug dealers, molls, affable hitmen, restaurant-robbing lovers, and a boxer out to scam the mob on his last professional bout. This is the film that put John Travolta back on the map as a major box-office draw in the '90s and officially established Samuel L. Jackson as a superstar. It also inspired a seemingly endless slew of imitators.

Advantages: Unique and classic Disadvantages: Not for all horror fans
...Made in 1973 by Robert Hardy the wicker man is a chilling insight into ancient paganistic rituals. Set and filmed in the north Scottish island Summerisle, this film was somewhat controversial at the time of it's release and since then has become a cult classic amongst British horror fans.
The storyline follows Sgt Howie (Woodward) as a police officer from mainland Scotland who flies to Summerisle to investigate the dissapearance of a young girl. After his first night in Summerisle, Howie discovers that not all is at it seems here, the villagers are suprisingly unhelpful or willing to even acknowledge the cause of the Sgt's visit, and the devout Christian is shocked and stunned to learn that the islands primary religion is Paganism.
When i first saw this film, i knew that it wasn't going to be your typical horror, it seems to play...

Advantages: a collector's edition with all info for superman fans Disadvantages: don't see any
...I have to say, I have seen this film at least two thousand times since I was three years old, and the film STILL amazes me with every viewing! There are at least a hundred things I could say about this film to get those of you out there who haven't seen it already to check it out.One of the most memorable parts of the movie is the opening credits. I suggest you rent or buy the special edition DVD of this because it's loaded with A lot of bonus features.Even now I'm still touched by its magic, and deeply saddened by the real-life tragedies that have followed it.This is such a brilliant film and put a stamp on the genre of superheroes that every other film will try to live up to. For the record I am thrilled and excited about the upcoming Bryan Singer Superman film, I think he will take everything that was great about this original...
