This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews and articles including: Badlands - Terrence Malick's first feature proved that a commercial filmmaker could also make genuine cinema art -- it's a sensational 'true' crime story in an utterly original style. Martin Sheen and Sissy Spacek play Kit and Holly, disaffected young people who take off on a whirlwind murder spree as pointless as it is savage; The Soul of a Monster - George Macready is a satanic zombie in this odd Val Lewton-wannabe from Columbia. The legendary Rose Hobart is the mystery woman who plucks him from death's door, but leaves him with no pulse and apparently no blood in his veins; and China Gate - Sam Fuller's mercenaries, with Angie Dickinson as 'Lucky Legs', help the French field a commando raid on a Commie ammo dump on the Viet/Chinese border. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
