DVD Savant is back and on schedule, with reviews from three ends of the genre spectrum.

All Day Entertainment's Vincent Price The Sinister Image is a great 1987 interview with this most civilized of movie stars, horror or otherwise. And the extras are terrific - two television shows, a radio program, an exhaustive stills section, and more.

Zeitgeist Video's Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media is a partisan documentary about the social philosopher often dubbed, for better or worse, the 'most important intellectual alive today'. So why does he advocate such radical ideas, and why is he consistently marginalized by the mass media?

Paramount Home Video digs deep into the vaults for a vintage film noir thriller, Sorry, Wrong Number. Bedridden harridan Barbara Stanwyck overhears murderous plans on a bad telephone connection ... could they have something to do with hubby Burt Lancaster's odd behavior?

More reviews on the way, toot sweet ... and perhaps (if I get to the screening on time) a quick review of a new title too. Adíos, Glenn E.
