DVD Savant: Hollywoodland, Band of Angels and Looker
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews including: Band of Angels - This overheated exercise in antebellum bad taste combines a realistic depiction of the slave trade with anachronistic attitudes from the 50s Civil Rights era when it was made; Hollywoodland - Sleazy private eye Adrien Brody digs into the mysterious death of Superman actor George Reeves, wondering how far he can go before Tinseltown retaliates; Robert Mitchum The Signature Collection - Warners gives us a fat box with six Mitchum vehicles: Angel Face, Macao, Home from the Hill, The Sundowners, The Good Guys and the Bad Guys and The Yakuza; Looker - Michael Crichton's murder thriller lumps plastic surgery, CGI moviemaking, hypnotic weaponry and a corporate conspiracy into an uneven thriller brimming with visionary ideas; Slaughter of the Vampires - Cheeky undead aristocrat Dieter Eppler really messes up Walter Brandi's household in this Italian-German monster mash, heavily 'patterened' after Horror of Dracula. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
