Savant's new reviews today are
Well, it's not every year that one of my all-time favorites comes to DVD, and this week it's EYES WITHOUT A FACE, a chiller that I spent most of the 1970s trying to see after glimpsing its redubbed American retread version THE HORROR CHAMBER OF DR FAUSTUS. I hope a lot of quality-deprived horror fans get to sample this austere masterpiece, it's a real breakthrough for Eurohorror, a truly unique piece of cinefantastique.
You'll notice my reviews are late this week, due to an annoying break in internet service; I might be shifting posting nights to try and coincide with the Wednesday newsletter schedule worked out with Savant's generous hosts at DVDTalk ... people getting web notice of reviews at Savant are half the time missing out on already-posted new material. I think I'll be moving my posting days from Sunday to Tuesday and from Thursday to Saturday. We'll see how it goes.
Thanks for all the help, and especially this week to writer-pal Avie Hern, whose lessons on how to spell common words are a big help. Spending a lifetime thinking I was an infallible speller was an ignorant delusion that came to an end with DVD Savant! And, by the way, I've rewritten my review for The Wrong Man ... it had the kind of typos that only Gremlins can explain. Thanks, Glenn Erickson
