Customer Beast Reviews DVD




4 stars Classic Borowczyk
My only problem with this comprehensive release is that the master used for the completely uncut version is a Dutch master with Dutch and English subs going on at the same time. The English subs already obscure the picture without the Dutch ones as well.

4 stars 70's Borowczyk if you like
Good screenplay, good and famous actors (and especially beatiful A.), typical movie of Walerian Borowczyk in 75.

LA HISTORIA Walerian Borowczyk (Alias: BORO): Director polaco de la corriente Erótica caracterizado por trabajar bajo un formato extravagante, oscuro y a la vez sincero por decirlo de alguna forma. En este caso en particular nos referiremos a su más controversial largometraje, La Bête (a.k.a. The Beast, La Bestia). Basado en el cuento “La Bella y la Bestia” de J.M. Leprince de Beaumont (Francia, 1711-1780), Borowczyk genera una fábula erótica en el cual da a luz todos los aspectos sexuales desvirtuados que pueden florecer de una relación amorosa llevada acabo por una doncella (Romilda de l'Esperance) del siglo 18 y una bestia (cuerpo de oso y cabeza de lobo) que habita el frondoso jardín de su château (castillo). En todo caso, la película transcurre 200 años después de los zoofílicos eventos protagonizados por Romilda de l’Esperance y el bicho en cuestión, cuando una joven llamada Lucy Broadhurst (Lisbeth Hummel) llega al castillo para casarse con su prometido Mathurin de l'Esperance (nuevo habitante del château). Desde el primer momento en que Lucy pisa la finca donde el château se levanta, comienza a despertar en ella cierta curiosidad y atracción sexual por los animales, hecho que se acentúa cada vez mas a medida que transcurre el Film. La película toma su verdadero color cuando Lucy, además de su patente atracción por el reino animal, comienza a tener reiterados sueños netamente vinculados con los acontecimientos ocurridos a Romilda hace ya 200 años. IMAGEN y FOTOGRAFíA 1.66:1 - Widescreen El transfer a DVD no es muy bueno, aunque cabe destacar que los colores ROJO y VERDE son extremadamente brillantes y eso le da un efecto visual muy bello cuando se mezclan con colores como el negro y el celeste (que en este caso son muy opacos y gastados). Tiene una fotografía hermosa y muy detallista a la hora de hacer close-ups con objeto de conceptuar ideas. AUDIO y MúSICA Mono La música pertenece al compositor Domenico Scarlatti (1685-1757), desgraciadamente, desconozco el nombre de la obra para clavicordio que se ocupa en la escena de la persecución por el bosque del château, pero es un hecho de que dicha obra calza de manera perfecta y a su vez jocosa con la escena.

Castle Of Cagliostro DVD  (1979) Widescreen

Beast film
DVD $12.85  5 stars
The feature film debut of Hayao Miyazaki (NAUSICAÄ OF THE VALLEY OF THE WIND, PRINCESS MONONOKE), THE CASTLE OF CAGLIOSTRO depicts one adventure of the master thief Lupin and his rough-around-the-edges gunman, Jigen. Something of a cross between Batman, James Bond, and Cary Grant's character in TO CATCH A THIEF, Lupin is a suave ladies' man who is also given to feats of athletic daring, aided by a gadget filled belt that gets him out of more than a few scrapes. The plot has Lupin and Jigen traveling to the sleepy little country of Cagliostro and coming to the aid of the unwilling fiance of the diabolical Count Cagliostro. After CAGLIOSTRO, Miyazaki stopped creating "slapstick" feature films in favor of more serious fare; CAGLIOSTRO shows, however, that he is quite capable of delivering the goods in this genre. Based on the Lupin comics by the artist Monkey Punch, CAGLIOSTRO is a great heist/chase film that surpasses most similar live action fare and breezes by with more than a couple of inventive set pieces, as well as some excellent comic dialogue. 100 minute Japanese animation DVD. Master thief Lupin III, aka the wolf, and his right-hand gunman Jigen are hot o n the trail of a counterfeiter who swindled them...but they find far more than they are looking for when their search leads ...

Director Goro Taniguchi (INFINITE RYVIUS, S-CRY-ED) fashions another imaginative take on intergalactic space travel in his sci-fi series PLANETES. In the year 2075, travel between the earth, moon, and various space stations has become a routine part of human existence. But the increased traffic leaves behind floating pieces of debris that present a deadly hazard for traveling starships and must be cleared by a squad of hardworking debris collectors. As the collectors' newest recruit, idealistic Ai Tanabe quickly loses her enthusiasm for outer space when she joins the Half-Section unit and meets her cynical new partner, Hachimaki. But Tanabe soon discovers that hauling in space debris is not only dull and monotonous--it carries with it a unique set of difficulties and dangers. PLANETES avoids the wild, fantastical tropes of much sc-fi anime in favor of realistic hard science that emphasizes ...

Beast DVD
DVD $41.85  4 stars
Set in the small town of Stars Hollow, Connecticut, GILMORE GIRLS is a charming television drama that tells the story of a thirty-something single mother, Lorelai Gilmore (Lauren Graham), and her precocious teenage daughter, Rory (Alexis Bledel), as they navigate their way through the shifting tides of day-to-day life. Lorelai and Rory's relationship is one built out of friendship as much as it is based on maternal love, which allows for more drama and depth than most family shows. This release is a perfect way for fans to remember why they fell in love with the show in the first place, and allows latecomers to discover Lorelai and Rory for the very first time. Contains all twenty-one episodes from the show's first season. Welcome to quaint Stars Hollow, Connecticut. People often mistake Independence Inn's manager, headstrong single mom Lorelai Gilmore, and her equally willful teenage daughter, Rory, for sisters. Lorelai and Rory cope with the same emotional ups and downs, including Lorelai's overbearing, old-money parents and the joys and frustrations of the male gender. This heartfelt, humorous drama appeals to young and old alike with its blend of traditional family issues and hip, contemporary attitude. ...
