Out of the Past  — 4K UHD

by Glenn Erickson

At the peak of the style called film noir are a few classics that approach perfection, and Jacques Tourneur’s supremely poetic film is certainly in the top ten. Daniel Mainwaring’s pulp novel has plenty of macabre twists but the adaptation benefits from the electric charge generated by Robert Mitchum and Jane Greer. Her fugitive is…

Hell’s Highway   The True Story of Highway Safety Films

by Glenn Erickson

Two decades later, this daring documentary is still the only authoritative reportage on a near-taboo subject: the gross and gory graphic auto accident movies once shown to high schoolers with the idea of scaring them into driving more safely. Filmmaker Bret Wood has reconstructed and partly revised the docu, which tells the full story of…

Spike of Bensonhurst  — 4K UHD

by Glenn Erickson

Paul Morrissey wrote and directed this sprawling, comic/serious neighborhood saga that scrambles ethnic identities, lopsided honor codes and the twisted ‘normality’ of mob rule in the borough of Brooklyn. Do we like our hero Spike?  He’s an arrogant, entitled Italian-American, macho to the core. He impregnates both of his girlfriends, Maria Pitillo and Talisa Soto….

Watching the Dark

Buddy

by Terry Morgan

I saw this film in a theater, and two women were sitting next to me. During the credits, one asked the other, with a hopeful tone, what she thought of the movie. The recipient of the question answered it, as if somewhat amazed that her response wouldn’t be obvious: “I don’t like films about children…

Forbidden Planet  — 4K UHD

by Glenn Erickson

Robby the Robot is back, this time in 4K UHD. Arrow Video’s 4K restoration brings back the full early width of CinemaScope, along with re-created ‘Perspecta’ stereophonic sound. Hollywood’s one full-out attempt to depict an intergalactic Sci-fi future is a smashing success that relies on complex ideas as well as spaceships and monsters. It’s also…
