Moriarty’s DVD Shelf! New Release Tuesday for September 26th!!

First! by kwisatzhaderach	Sep 26th, 2006 04:37:22 AM
How exciting.
Lady Vengeance by jigsaw	Sep 26th, 2006 04:41:00 AM
Some of the posters for this film were way cooler than that DVD cover, how typical. And I would be excited for Frankenstein, if I didn't already own it. Bastards.
The horror! by BannedOnTheRun	Sep 26th, 2006 04:50:03 AM
"The Lake House?" I can't look! Tell me when it's over!
First by toshradio	Sep 26th, 2006 04:51:06 AM
Always wanted to be first (I hope I am). Now I can die. Frankenstein & Dracula should be good.
Not much this week by Ivan Alexeev	Sep 26th, 2006 04:51:43 AM
which is good, since I have about six months of disks to get through. Firstish!
Dead Zone by mrfan	Sep 26th, 2006 04:54:15 AM
Will probably pick this up.
I have a soft spot for "Hardware" by BannedOnTheRun	Sep 26th, 2006 05:03:17 AM
It was a nice attempt, but it's tough to preface your film with "no flesh shall be spared" and then have the action confined to a tiny apartment. Due to budget constraints, a lot of flesh was spared, apparently. And pardon my ignorance, but since when has Haiti been under "American control?"
Firt time firster long time non-firster by lord-yuppa	Sep 26th, 2006 05:05:22 AM
I know, I know, I'm sure I'm not really first. Ahhhh...Tuesdays with Mori.
Imprint by hammer1310	Sep 26th, 2006 05:12:29 AM
I'ts about damn time Imprint came out. After suffering through some of the lesser titles i'm really looking forward to this one.
Norton is excellent in Down in the Valley by IndustryKiller!	Sep 26th, 2006 05:27:49 AM
As always. The guy is just a powerhouse on the screen. The film itself is a bit meandering and the last 20% or so of the film would work if it wasn't part of the same 80% that came before it. As a character study of Norton's "Harlen" it works though.
DAMN YOU, UNIVERSAL! by Uncle Stan	Sep 26th, 2006 05:50:20 AM
Bastards
wow those are a lot of crapy horor movies! ... by AGE IIX	Sep 26th, 2006 05:51:58 AM
first?
FIRST EVER by TheMovieKudosKid	Sep 26th, 2006 05:58:49 AM
I dunno, my first talkback, and I'm first BLAAAAHHH Awesome DVD news BTW Moriarty.
Another week by The hoff	Sep 26th, 2006 06:00:45 AM
and still no seven samurai or gojiro review. Don't want to sound like a broken record but are we going to get a review? Other than that pretty slow week dvd wise might get hold of dust devil but will probably wait for the price to drop.
FIRST by TheMovieKudosKid	Sep 26th, 2006 06:01:36 AM
I dunno...I'M FIRST!!! Awesome DVD news, Mozza.
Edward Norton works enough... by LaudnerGomez	Sep 26th, 2006 06:02:24 AM
...and DOWN IN THE VALLEY would've been much more effective had THE KING not opened in the same month. Very different, yet very similar films... buy VALLEY's ending is wayyyyy more goofy. ------ Truthfully, Norton needs to try something different with his acting. His recent roles show a reluctance to give himself over fully to the thrill of acting. He giving half-assed work in unremarkable stuff. ---
Still first? by PietjePuk	Sep 26th, 2006 06:07:24 AM
With Halloween coming I would expect some decent flicks to come to DVD, sounds like a load of crap to me...

Texas Chain Saw Massacre by gerando	Sep 26th, 2006 06:24:02 AM

Universal's got some balls. by Drworm2002	Sep 26th, 2006 06:29:50 AM
They need to team up with George Lucas.
Dust Devil by Goatboy	Sep 26th, 2006 06:34:12 AM
Dammit, the UK release is just the bare-bones 1 disc edition. Guess I'll be ordering Region 1 then.
Holy crap by The hoff	Sep 26th, 2006 06:38:57 AM
the posts are really slow today. Posted 30 minutes ago and still hasn't turned up. Sorry if this comes up as a double post. Anyway Mori are we going to get a seven samurai review?

Chaos tb Juggfuckled by keepcoolbutcare	Sep 26th, 2006 06:53:36 AM
what with all the recent upgrading. Pity too, that was one for the classics. "Most Brutal Movie Ever Made" can be interpreted in radically different ways. Liked Hardware in my tween years, revisted recently and wasn't nearly as impressed.
Lady Vengeance is a gem... by DanielKurland	Sep 26th, 2006 07:03:18 AM
And I'd like to check out Bettie Page due to the content and Mary Haron's track record. Would you guys reccomend it? Better than American Psycho?
Like, OMG!!! Phurst? by ejcarter9	Sep 26th, 2006 07:18:31 AM
Ooooooooo, the ecstasy and that other feeling.
Masters of Horror for Halloween by kernunrex	Sep 26th, 2006 07:23:17 AM
Started watching MoH for my Six Weeks of Halloween celebration. Been saving them for the occasion. I dunno. Sorry, Mori -- I wasn't thrilled with "Cigarette Burns." I really wanted to like it, but it didn't click for me. Looking forward to the "Dagon" reunion in Gordon's episode next.
FIRST by AlienMonkey	Sep 26th, 2006 07:26:19 AM
Always wanted to do that.
Not first!? by abominate	Sep 26th, 2006 07:30:58 AM
Curious George didn't have enough nudity for me.
I loved Hardware by Jedi2dope	Sep 26th, 2006 07:34:21 AM
Is there a copy out there of the uncut version?
Brotherhood by Uga	Sep 26th, 2006 07:34:56 AM
You can tell Showtime wants its "Sopranos" just by looking at the DVD cover. Hell, I thought it WAS "The Sopranos" when I first glanced at it.
The Lake house by NerdHooligan	Sep 26th, 2006 07:42:22 AM
I liked it
The Ground Truth DVD by RenoNevada2000	Sep 26th, 2006 07:45:13 AM
Any reason why there's misspellings on the package under the title?
Greatness, Mori. by Zarles	Sep 26th, 2006 07:51:12 AM
Well done. The two references to Vern's articles more than prove why he is my favorite reviewer here.
Street Trash by RodneyOz	Sep 26th, 2006 07:51:44 AM
Wonder if it's a sign of the apocalypse when Street Trash gets a 2-disc special DVD edition. No idea who else is the target audience for it, but I'm getting it.

This is also my first post with the new website design. According to the sidebar, there's 42 posts but according to the bit of the page above me, 'None posted yet', not even the one I just posted. This will take some getting used to.

Nightmare on Elm Street still gives me the creeps. Shudder

who's on first? by sternumman	Sep 26th, 2006 08:01:24 AM
the nightmare disk looks nice, but these companies need to stop raping the fans with all of these reissues
Henry 2 - "Why Not?" by triplefive	Sep 26th, 2006 08:04:20 AM
Because I highly doubt it'll encapsulate the same mood and feelings that the original, ultra low budget Henry has. The only time I ever watched that film, I had to shower afterwards cause i felt so dirty seeing that shit. Michael Rooker was amazing, and Henry 2 looks like ass. Thats why not, McWeeny.
wow this is incredible 49 by The hoff	Sep 26th, 2006 08:04:36 AM

Dust Devil! by brycemonkey	Sep 26th, 2006 08:26:38 AM
I've been looking for this title for years! I saw this when it first came out. Might finally own it. I was struck by how beautifully it was shot and the themes running through it :-) Oh, and it's pretty sick and creepy too!
Also Mori, I think you need to tighten by brycemonkey	Sep 26th, 2006 08:28:44 AM

i love lugosi and karloff, and i own both of the previous editions of these classics, but damn if these don't look tempting. as does the reissue of chain saw, which i have the meat package from a few years ago. and i have the nightmare box set, so i'm not too jazzed over the new version. i will recommend the boris karloff box set which came out last week, as well as the inner sanctum mysteries, and the exclusive sci-fi box set from best buy, which contains the incredible shrinking man, tarantula, the mole people, ect. but only if you are a fan of such things.

Well I'll disagree... by solongyoubastard	Sep 26th, 2006 10:11:38 AM
I think Ed Norton is one of the hammiest actors working today. He may evoke the traditional character actor bravado of Hoffman or De Niro or Pacino, but that acting style seems dated now. The performances he's received so much acclaim for - Primal Fear, American History X, Fight Club...in every role, you can feel him acting the hell out of it, and they're all over-the-top. For some reason he has a devoted following (Moriarty's "I don't think anyone would argue" comment is a perfect example), I'm sure I'll receive much venom based on this opinion - but why do people let him get away with crap like Red Dragon, The Score, and Death to Smoochy when he's not a very good actor in the first place?

This talkback is like "Idiocracy" in action. Are you kidding me? That many people have nothing better to say than "first"? Someone really needs to compile a book (with headshots) of all the supposed firsters who weren't actually first and call it "Planet of the Apes". In fact it should probably include the real firsters as well, who are no less retarded, just luckier.

Re: Down in the Valley by Cracker_Thompson	Sep 26th, 2006 04:09:12 PM
I actually saw this flick at the premier at AFI Fest a couple of years back and it left me annoyed. That's not to say that it isn't a good movie, but every twist and turn is telegraphed soooo much that there is no sense of surprise to anything that happens. It's a good movie that could have been great. Ed Norton and Evan Wood do a great job in it, but I think the inexperience of the director shows through... that's just my opinion, though.

DUST DEVIL is brilliant by Jme	Sep 26th, 2006 06:58:01 PM
..i got my copy of the 5-disc in the mail today, and i can't wait to watch it. i've had a fuzzy slp-speed bootleg for the longest time, so this is going to be a real treat. and those documentaries--mmm delicious. Richard Stanley was featured prominently on the second disc of Van Bebbers MANSON FAMILY and all three docs are discussed. i never thought in a million years i would ever get to see them. Stanley is one of my favorite directors. i'm fucking thrilled, you have no idea. hopefully putting DUST DEVIL on dvd will finally give it some much-deserved attention. and maybe, hopefully very soon we will see a remastered directors cut of HARDWARE, which is also brilliant. and while we're on the subject, could someone please restore Clive Barker's NIGHTBREED to its original glory? before 20th Century Fox had to stick their stupid greedy mainstreamy cocks in it.

Is this the theatrical release version or the directors cut with the color grading?

not every day you see dog shit on the road ... but instead you should brag about the fact that your mother didnt swallow you 9 months before you were born ....

"Down in the Valley" had a lot of very bizarre... by Lenny Nero	Sep 27th, 2006 03:02:47 PM
...and very tonally off-color performances, but that doesn't mean it didn't work. The film moves into crazy territory in the last 30-45 minutes, but at least it stuck to its guns. And Ms. Wood is as irrestible as ever, both performance-wise and...well...you know.
The Lake House (*SPOILERS*) by cooper36	Sep 28th, 2006 05:29:14 AM
My problem with the Lake House was the ending. I'm willing to go along with the idea of a time-travelling mail box. All movies require some suspension of disbelief (an archeologist who can take on the German army single handedly, a war that took place long time ago in a galaxy far far away, a cyborg that travels from the future to save the man who will defeat the machines in the future, etc.) All I request is that the movie make sense WITHIN the logic of the movie. They don't have to be "realistic" (by definition, fantasies aren't realistic--that's why they're fantasies) but they do have to hold together by their own logic. When they don't, that's when they fail. And that leads me to the ending (*SPOILER AHEAD*). According to the ending, Keanu Reaves avoided the bus that hit him but, as far as the world is concerned (the world meaning his family, his business and his friends), he did die that day. Two big questions with that statement. First, considering there were people all around him, how was this pulled off? Did he fake a bus accident? Second (assuming you can answer the first), why would he do that? Personally, if I faked my own death for a year just to have a big romantic moment one year from now, people wouldn't go "awwwwwww, that's sweet". Instead, they would be pissed at me for making them grieve at my own death for my own selfish reasons. And the woman I loved would say "you made me think you were dead?!?!?!?! Insensitive jerk!!!" When viewed in that light, that makes 1) the ending impossible; 2) Keannu Reeves' character a selfish, insensitive jerk. Not exactly the ending the producers were intending.
