This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews and articles including: Kismet - Take your choice -- MGM clunker or an unappreciated musical gem? Howard Keel is the marketplace beggar Hajj, who will fast-talk himself into an Emir-ship, provided he can come up with the miracles demanded by Sebastian Cabot's execution-happy Wazir; The Max Linder Slapstick Symposium Collection - Max is an original comic talent who inspired Chaplin; he was also the likely model for the Oscar winner The Artist from a few years back... This fine selection of comedies contains three full features and one three-reeler; and Video Nasties:The Definitive Guide - This three-disc collection probably is the last word on its subject, the United Kingdom's anti-'permissiveness' campaign that criminalized 72 horror films. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
