This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews including: Merrill's Marauders - Sam Fuller takes on the Burma campaign in this much admired but little-shown big scale battle epic. It's Jeff Chandler's last film; The Skull - Peter Cushing carries this not-bad-at-all supernatural horror about the criminal cranium of none other than the Marquis de Sade, and its alarming habit of tearing people's throats out. Directed with style by Freddie Francis; also starring Christopher Lee and Patrick Wymark; and La Roue - Abel Gance's legendary 1923 silent movie surfaces in a magnificent restoration -- all 4.5 hours of it! This story of love and loss in the family of a railroad engineer is a milestone of cinematic innovation, hailed as the next step past D.W. Griffith and a strong influence on the direction of world cinema. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
