Customer Diamond Head Reviews DVD




Average Rating: (3 out of 5 stars) 3 stars

3 stars Lackluster, slow-moving but very nostalgic
This melodrama reflects the essence of many of those flicks from the early 60s which we watched on a Saturday evening. I agree that Heston fans will be the most enthusiastic about adding this DVD to their collections.

3 stars For Heston fans only!
Diamond Head is not a memorable film or one of those MUST SEE films but it is an interesting drama. As ever, Charlton Heston gives a top performance but the story itself needed a bit more emotion and perhaps a few better stars to deliver the story. This is a Friday night at home movie for those who appreciate Heston more than the film itself. With a beautiful location wasted... Hawaii... the story sets out OK but could have been better. Still a welcome addition to my library however and at very good value. Excellent sound and transfer.

DVD $9.79  Top 500
A little-known gem from 1959, this romantic comedy stars Doris Day (THE MAN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH), Jack Lemmon (SOME LIKE IT HOT), and Ernie Kovacs (BELL, BOOK AND CANDLE) in a classic tale of a small-town, underdog triumph over corrupt, big-business interests. Jane Osgood (Day) is a widowed mother who runs a struggling lobster business in coastal Maine, while Harry Malone (Kovacs) is a wealthy businessman who has bought out the local railroad. He harbors big plans for it, aiming to transform it into a luxury passenger train, replacing the freight train the residents of the area depend upon. When a large lobster shipment of Jane's is rerouted and returned to her dead, she decides to fight back, and sues Malone with the help of her longtime friend and lawyer George Denham. This instigates a battle of increasingly epic proportions, as Malone uses every trick in the book--as well as his massive bank account--to quell the resolve of the spitfire businesswoman; Jane, for her part, has public sympathy on her side. A reporter for the national news doing a story on Jane (Steve Forrest, MOMMIE DEAREST) begins to fall in love with her, and she ...

Diamond Head review
DVD $15.49  4 stars
When an experiment goes horribly awry, a herd of giant killer rabbits are sent galloping across the globe in this gross-out horror movie from 1972. The technical details of the plot, which involve a hormone designed to quash the rampant sexual proclivities of rabbits, are wisely dispensed with early on in order to allow the rampant bunnies enough screen time to rip into their human persecutors. As the giant beasts throw off the cute, loveable mantle they've worn for so long, a cast including Janet Leigh (PSYCHO) and DeForest Kelley (Leonard "Bones" McCoy from STAR TREK) attempts to fend them off. The primitive special effects and hammy performances have turned NIGHT OF THE LEPUS into a cult classic over the years, with viewers finding themselves ...
