This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews including: Blast of Silence - Allen Baron's 1961 obscurity gets the jump on existential mob movies by several years, introducing a touch of art-movie poetics to a gritty B&W hit man saga. A major curiosity that's been on a lot of must-see lists for a long time; Don't Drink the Water - It didn't perform badly when it was new, but this utterly witless film adaptation of a Woody Allen stage hit is numbingly bad. Jackie Gleason and Estelle Parson's talents are buried in lame TV-movie setups and a terrible production. A surprise flop from a group of otherwise talented pros. ;The Bette Davis Collection, Vol. 3 - A third trip to the Bette Davis vault yields a couple of great pictures and some mid-range curiosities, and Davis makes them all highly entertaining: The Old Maid, All This and Heaven Too, The Great Lie, In This Our Life, Watch on the Rhine, Deception. A six-disc set loaded with featurettes, Bob Clampett cartoons and rare newsreel outtakes; and Sweeney Todd, The Demon Barber of Fleet Street -Tim Burton's blood-soaked adaptation retains the operatic quality of Stephen Sondheim's musical, if not the full range of its passions -- Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter are a low-key pair of fiends, and the dank London setting gives free rein to Burton's Victorian-Goth visuals. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
