Category Horror DVDs, Military Movies, Black Comedy Videos, Period Piece
Starring Guy Pearce, Robert Carlyle, Jeffrey Jones, David Arquette, Neal McDonough, Jeremy Davies, Stephen Spinella
Director Antonia Bird
Composer Michael Nyman, Damon Albarn
Director of Photography Anthony Richmond
Screenwriter Ted Griffin

A cowardly soldier (Pearce) is stationed at an isolated military outpost with a bunch of misfits in Sierra Nevada following the Mexican-American War in 1847. When a dazed survivor (Carlyle) of an unfortunate expedition shows up at the outpost, it isn't long before he reveals himself to be a murderous madman with a taste for human flesh. An offbeat, blackly comic and extremely bloody effort from English director Bird (PRIEST).

4 stars A Classic Dark Movie
Part time Comedy part time drama. This movie is an unsung classic. Guy Pierce and Robert Carslyle are great. The whole scene in the tent when the Knox's screams "He Licked me!!!" is a classic. A must have if you are Guy Pierce fan.

Picking up where NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD left off, and still offering no explanation of why the dead are walking the earth, DAWN OF THE DEAD plunges headlong into one of the most violent and original horror films ever made. After securing an apartment building overcome with flesh-eating zombies, two Philadelphia area SWAT team members, Peter (Ken Foree) and Roger (Scott Reiniger), flee to a television station, where they escape in the station's helicopter with Francine (Gaylen Ross) and Stephen (David Emge), two station employees. Seeking refuge from the zombies and the ensuing hysteria, they land on top of a Pittsburgh area shopping mall, despite the fact that the undead seem to be flocking there. What begins as a stop for supplies becomes a longer stay as the four become embroiled in a futile war within the mall to keep their flesh to themselves and remain alive. The film's relentlessly disturbing and innovative gore effects are one reason to see DAWN OF THE DEAD, but those who can stomach the endless barrage of blood and gnarled zombie faces will be rewarded--and possibly surprised--by what the film says about human nature and life within a consumer-based culture. Any aficionado of horror is likely to place the film high on their list of revered cinema. The original 1968 horror film from director George A. Romero in an all-new hi-def Divimax transfer with new bonus features, including audio commentary with director Romero and Special Effects creator Tom Savini,.

When a young urbanite calls to order cable TV for his apartment he gets much more than he bargained for, as the demented title character arrives and proceeds to insinuate his way into the beleaguered customer's life. Raised by television as a child and starved for human contact, the "cable guy" is a darkly hilarious carnation of the modern age. Carey's manic karaoke rendition of Jefferson Airplane's "Somebody to Love" is a twisted highlight. DVD. Feature film. Pkgd in keep case. Dir. by Ben Stiller. Stars Jim Carrey & Matthew Broderick. Widescreen & standar d. Chapter selection. Sound in Engl., Spanish, & French; su btitles in Spanish & Korean. CC. Dolby dig. Surround. 96 mi n. Rated PG-13.

A movie director and his troupe of actor friends vacation on a remote island where they dig up a corpse and jokingly perform a ceremony to resurrect it. It works! Interesting, garishly-colored zombie makeups and an offbeat counter-cultural feel make this an interesting curiosity.
