Savant's new reviews today are

The Children are Watching Us  Criterion
The Valley of the Bees  Facets
Masters of Horror / Stuart Gordon: Dreams in the Witch House  Anchor Bay and
Five Weeks in A Balloon  Fox

Let me direct your attention to another DVDTalk reviewer, Svet Atasanov, who has given us a looksee at a rare French political sci-fi fantasy, Mister Freedom. I've read about this scathing Anti-Yankee farce since the 1960s when it showed up on the cover of the French magazine Midi-Minuit Fantastique and never thought it would be made available.

It apparently is available from Xploited Cinema, an online seller that specializes in desirable imports. Savant readers have been writing all week to say that the company is fast and reliable and that they've never had a problem with it. Xploited Cinema also stocks the rare Czech film I reviewed last week, Ikarie XB 1. I hope to be hearing back from readers soon to find out if any of them like Ikarie as much as I do! -- Glenn Erickson
