DVD Savant: This Island Earth, Hunger and Clean
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews including: This Island Earth - Universal gives us an indifferent disc of an exciting science fiction favorite; Hunger Per Oscarssen shines in a fascinating film version of Knut Hamsun's 1890 classic about a starving artist too proud to ask for charity; Halloween: 25 Years of Terror - A feature-length docu from 2003 charts the success of the horror franchise begun by John Carpenter's original Michael Myers film; The Fifth Horseman is Fear - A famous (but largely forgotten) Czech film is a key Kafkaesque subversive mini classic; Ronald Reagan: The Signature Collection - Ronald Reagan's best films are here, along with a couple of popular pictures that show his strengths and weaknesses; Vicki - Jean Peters and Jeanne Crain star as sisters in a New York story of fame, glamour and murder; Clean - Maggie Cheung is the disgraced wife of a dead rock star, trying to clean up her act, start a career of her own and recover her son from father-in-law Nick Nolte. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
