Greetings! Savant's new reviews today are

Perversion Story
Severin
and
Sanders of the River & Jericho
part of the Paul Robeson Portraits of an Artist box from Criterion

Hello! Savant came down with a very unwelcome cold. I'd rather be out seeing that new Korean monster movie, THE HOST. Being sick means I have seen all of the Alice Faye DVDs but won't have reviews on them until Saturday. A thousand pardons.

Ed Sullivan sent me to a couple of new articles in a fine web magazine called The Irish Journal of Gothic and Horror Studies. I linked to it before but haven't seen it for awhile. Some excellent articles there.

FInally, another website has announced that Fox will release on June 5, Special Editions of Fantastic Voyage and the original film Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, each with many extras. The Voyage disc is to be known as the "Global Warming Edition." Either it simply takes its clue from the story, which involves the Earth's skies catching on fire, or they've used CGI to insert Vice President Al Gore into several scenes. Just kidding.

I shall sniffle some more and see thee later in the week ... Glenn Erickson
