DVD Savant: Bottle Rocket, Chamber of Horrors & The Brides of Fu Manchu, and Dona Flor
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews including: Bottle Rocket (Blu-ray) - Wes Anderson's breakthrough comedy hasn't lost a single quirk, and looks terrific in the clarity of Blu-ray. Criterion's extras contain the entire original short subject version; Chamber of Horrors & The Brides of Fu Manchu - Another Warners Horror Double Feature offering. The first is an amusing murder spree in old Baltimore with Patrick O'Neal in fine form as a homicidal maniac. Don Sharp's first Fu Manchu sequel is an okay period thriller starring Christopher Lee; and Dona Flor and Her Two Husbands - Bruno Barreto's Original Director's Cut of this wonderful, sexy Sonia Braga fantasy is even spicer. With an improved transfer. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
