A Nazi soldier is buried alive in a bunker and escapes after years of captivity. Is it truth? Is it sensationalism? This West German lost film noir has all the elements of a classic thriller. This atmospheric film noir was lost for decades, and evokes the long-lost era of post-WWII West Germany. Martin Held stars as Cesar Boyd, a famous news reporter who gets the scoop of a lifetime. A Nazi who was buried for years in his bunker finally escapes, but has gone blind, and Boyd happens to discover him. Boyd's devoted assistant Greg Bachmann (Horzt Buchholz) is a former con who admires his boss greatly, until he discovers the truth: Boyd concocted the entire story. Now it is up to Greg to expose the truth, which will also help him to win the heart of the lovely Bettina (Maria Perschy).
Wet Asphalt Reviews: "The film offers further tantalizing suggestions of the range and nature of Wisbar's talent. The expressionist tendencies are still there."
-- Dave Kehr, New York Times

$50.29 Based on the classic Marvel Comics series, Sam Raimi's SPIDER-MAN deftly details the origin of the web-slinging superhero. When awkward New York City teenager Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire) attends a class field trip to a laboratory, he gets bitten by a genetically altered spider while taking photos of his longtime crush, the lovely Mary Jane Watson (Kirsten Dunst). Soon he discovers this bite has given him remarkable powers--heightened strength, dexterity, and awareness, along with the ability to cling to walls and shoot webs from his wrists. Hoping to win Mary Jane's heart using his new talents, Peter becomes distracted from home life with his doting Aunt May (Rosemary Harris) and Uncle Ben (Cliff Robertson), ultimately leading to tragedy--and his new role as the crime-fighting Spider-Man. Meanwhile Harry Osborn (Willem Dafoe), the industrialist father of Peter's friend Norman (James Franco), undergoes a transformation of his own, bringing about the creation of Spider-Man's arch-nemesis: The Green Goblin. In order to save his loved ones--and all of New York City--from the devastating force of the deluded Goblin, Spider-Man must take on the villain in a series of stunning battles.
By staying true to the essence of the comic book, Raimi accomplishes the rare feat of crafting a superhero movie with a real heart. Rather than focusing solely on action and explosions, SPIDER-MAN wisely shines ...
