Two Dancers [LP]

$19.98

A more polished, cohesive second album might not have been expected from the Wild Beasts, but then again, their debut didn’t exactly play by the rules either. LIMBO, PANTO was a particularly apt title for the band’s first album: its songs were nearly as disjointed as they were theatrical. That can’t be said of TWO DANCERS, which sounds far more inviting; it sighs and caresses where LIMBO, PANTO stomped and snarled. ‘The Fun Powder Plot’ signals the Wild Beasts’ big changes right away: guitars chime over intricate percussion and keyboards, and Hayden Thorpe’s falsetto, once the most divisive instrument in the band’s arsenal, is smooth instead of raging. The song is actually pretty, a word that rarely described LIMBO, PANTO’s hyperactive cabaret experiments. The rest of TWO DANCERS follows the lead of its opening track, and at first, the band’s more abrasive side is missed – listeners almost expect to be bombarded with a challenge after the debut’s stunts. Instead, the Wild Beasts’ previously only hinted-at pop leanings come to the fore. ‘Hooting & Howling’ manages to sound accessible and very little like any other bands at the same time. Even the Wild Beasts’ philosophy seems clearer here – while TWO DANCERS isn’t a concept album (though Thorpe described it as ‘a collection of scenes’), there is a definite arc in how the songs relate to each other. Desire and sensual pleasures fuel these stories about eating, dreaming, stealing and carousing, from the flirtations of ‘All the King’s Men’ to the libertine exploits of ‘We Still Got the Taste Dancin’ on Our Tongues,’ a spooky, spaghetti Western-tinged track with lyrics like ‘Trousers and blouses make excellent sheets.’ However, hedonism’s violent side and its consequences aren’t forgotten amidst all the romance, and the album gets darker and more brooding as it unfolds. With TWO DANCERS, the Wild Beasts move from fascinating to accomplished, and that they did so just over a year after releasing LIMBO, PANTO makes that achievement all the more impressive.

Modern Marvels: Ben Franklin Tech -

$19.99

Casual history buffs know well that Ben Franlkin was a man of wit and wisdom, but few realize that he was actually a brilliant scientist as well. In this installment of A&E’s Modern Marvels, we get to learn how the oldest and wisest of America’s founding fathers put scientific principal to practical use. With ingenuity and imagination, Franklin invented such things as the Pennsylvania stove, the lightning rod, and the world’s first pair of bifocal eyeglasses. Not only that, but he also pioneered clever anti-counterfeiting techniques and created a unique musical instrument before hatching concepts that eventually yielded the volunteer fire department, Daylight Savings Time, and the modern lending library. The archetypal inventor, Franklin’s creativity and perpetual enthusiasm helped to make America one of the world’s leading innovators in science and technology. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

13 Ghosts – Widescreen Subtitle Dolby

$9.99

This haunted house chiller is the second feature from Dark Castle Entertainment, the mid-budget outfit put together in 1999 to remake the cheesy horror genre pictures of William Castle by his daughter, Terry Castle, and producers Gilbert Adler, Robert Zemeckis, and Joel Silver. Financially ravaged and widowed by a fire that is consuming him with guilt, Arthur Kriticos (Tony Shalhoub) is left to raise two kids on his own: beautiful teenager Kathy (Shannon Elizabeth) and grade school student Bobby (Alec Roberts). Good news suddenly drops into their lives when a lawyer visits and reveals that they have inherited a lavish home from a late uncle, Cyrus (F. Murray Abraham), an eccentric ghost hunter. The Kriticos family moves into the remote house only to discover its odd secret: the dwelling contains a state-of-the-art, elaborate system of moving glass walls that trap spirits inside. Soon the ghosts, which can only be seen through the use of special high-tech spectacles, are loose in the elaborate contraption and are none too thrilled about their predicament. With the exits sealed, the family members try to learn the secret of Uncle Cyrus’ bizarre mansion and survive supernatural assaults with the help of sassy housekeeper Maggie (Rah Digga), neurotic psychic Rafkin (Matthew Lillard), and Kalina (Embeth Davidtz), an activist championing the civil rights of ghosts. The eyeglasses through which the spirits can be viewed in Thirteen Ghosts (2001) were part of a ballyhoo gimmick involving pairs of spectacles handed out to audiences for screenings of the 1960 original, which was presented in “Illusion-O.” ~ Karl Williams, Rovi

While Mel learns a few surprising facts about her new friend, Chimeron princess Delta (Belinda Mayne), the Doctor attempts to rescue both ladies from being assassinated by a stalker in blue-suede shoes. Written by Malcolm Kohll, “Delta and the Bannermen, Episode 2″ originally aired on November 9, 1987. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi Doctor Who: Delta and the Bannermen, Episode 3 In the conclusion of the three-part story “Delta and the Bannermen,” the Bannerman Warfleet steps up its efforts to assassinate Princess Delta of Chimeron (Belinda Mayne), as well as the infant heir apparent to the throne. In trying to prevent this, the Doctor (Sylvester McCoy) and Mel (Bonnie Langford) learn to their surprise that the Chimeron infant doesn’t really need any help. Watch for the Doctor’s eyeglasses in the climactic chase scene (though quite nearsighted, actor McCoy was determined to drive a motorcycle without the assistance of a stunt man). Written by Malcolm Kohll, “Delta and the Bannermen, Episode 3″ originally aired on November 16, 1987. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi Doctor Who: Delta and the Bannermen, Episode 1 Winning a trip to the Disneyland of 1959, the Doctor (Sylvester McCoy) and Melanie (Bonnie Langford) collide en route with a satellite. The would-be vacationers end up in a Welsh holiday camp called the Shangri-La — which is presently under siege by the Bannermen, a pair of genocidal assassins who have targeted another vacationer, Chimeron princess Delta (Belinda Mayne). American funnyman Stubby Kaye guest stars as Mr. Weismuller, while British TV game show host Ken Dodd appears briefly as the Tollmaster. Written by Malcolm Kohll, the three-episode “Delta and the Bannermen” began its original BBC run on November 2, 1987. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Carly (Elisha Cuthbert) and her boyfriend, Wade (Jared Padalecki), have hit the road with a handful of their friends to attend a championship college football game; tagging along with them are Carly’s bratty friend Paige (Paris Hilton, Carly’s trouble-making twin brother Nick (Chad Michael Murray), and Blake (Robert Ri’chard), Paige’s latest boy toy. While camping out for the night, the gang makes the mistake of getting on the wrong side of a mysterious local redneck, and the next morning they discover that Wade’s car no longer works. As the others continue on to the big game, Carly and Wade make their way into the closest town, Ambrose, and discover it’s all but deserted, except for a local tourist attraction, the House of Wax. However, it isn’t long before they find out why the wax sculptures at the museum look so freakishly real, and discover a pair of murderous brothers are keen on making them part of the next exhibit. House of Wax is an in-name-only remake of the well-remembered 1953 3-D horror outing starring Vincent Price, which was in turn based on the 1933 picture Mystery of the Wax Museum. ~ M

An Optimist Notes the Dusk

$14.99

We haven’t heard a full-length from David Grubbs the solo artist in a little more than four years; he’s spent his time issuing the odd EP here and there, appearing with Red Krayola, and making guest appearances on others recordings. An Optimist Notes the Dusk contains six tracks that clock in at a bit over 37 minutes, and the Grubbs on display here is the writer of art songs rather than the rampant free-form experimentalist, with one exception: “Not So Distant,” the album’s final and longest cut. For most of this set, Grubbs relies on his idiosyncratic sense of melody and accompanies himself on guitar with a drum kit on three cuts and a muted trumpet on two others. His songwriting, while it may look conventional on the surface, such as on “Gethsemani Night” which opens the set, is far from it. There are verses and choruses, but the arrangement of melody in some hummable fashion is absent here. In fact, Grubbs plays a gentle but pointillistic lyric line on his six-string, using off-kilter breaks in his tentative expressionist narrative to achieve the feeling of a skeletal tone poem whenever Nate Wooley’s muted trumpet enters the mix. Open-tuned strings offer minor-key and shadowed reflections to commence “An Optimist Declines,” when drummer Michael Evans enters, it feels almost like a creeping, halting duet between Sonic Youth’s Thurston Moore and drummer Steve Shelley, with some straining organ and modal power chords to take it out over the course of seven minutes. “Holy Fool Musing” feels more like a proper rockist jam, with drums and guitars skittering across the middle ground and some dramatic stops and starts to give it a middle period Meat Puppets kind of feel. It’s the most proper “rock song” here, and as such it’s a doozy — and yes, you can hum to it (just not loudly please). Too bad it’s less than three-and-a-half minutes long. “Storm Sequence” is an instrumental where sparse percussion and tension round off angular, electric guitar lines. An organ enters near the end to give the track an elegiac feel. “Eyeglasses of Kentucky” is another unaccompanied Grubbs’ vocal with his electric guitar. But this track moves in a labyrinthine way from shifting time and almost taut pauses. The set closes with the nearly 12-minute long droning ambient instrumental “Not So Distant.” With its low-register organ keys, subdued feedback, freely floating noise pulsations, and abstraction carrying the day, it lets the listener know that Grubbs can still be a totally weird — and slightly sinister — composer, but it’s a killer piece. In sum, this is a collection that does not define Grubbs in any hard and fast way, but merely showcases his particularly idiosyncratic vision, his sophistication as a composer and sound sculptor, and expands his already long reach. Let’s hope it won’t be another four years before we get another outing like this one. ~ Thom Jurek

Steve Martin: Wild & Crazy Comedy [2 Discs] -

$12.99

Includes:The Jerk (1979), MPAA Rating: R Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid (1982), MPAA Rating: PG The Lonely Guy (1984), MPAA Rating: R The Jerk Carl Reiner directs Steve Martin (who co-wrote the script with Carl Gottlieb) in this gag-laden comedy about an idiotic white man, raised by a poor family of black sharecroppers, who doesn’t realize he’s not black. Navin R. Johnson (Steve Martin) is told the horrible truth when he finds himself instinctively tapping his feet to an easy listening tune on the radio, instead of a low-down blues. His mother (Mabel King) tells him he’s white and Navin takes to the road (in a World War II bomber helmet and goggles) to start a new life in St. Louis. A filling station owner, Harry Hartounian (Jackie Mason), give Navin his first break, hiring him to pump gas. One day at the station, Navin has a brainstorm, concocting an invention called “The Opti-grab,” a combination handle and nose-brace for eyeglasses. But Navin runs into trouble when a crazed killer (M. Emmet Walsh) picks out his name at random from the telephone book and tries to kill him. Navin escapes to a traveling carnival, where he wrangles a job as the “guess-your-weight” man. At the carnival, he discovers his sexual nature, thanks to stunt rider and S&M enthusiast Patty Bernstein (Catlin Adams). But Navin meets the beautiful Marie (Bernadette Peters) and he quickly falls in love. In the meantime, the “Opti-grab” has taken off and soon Navin is a millionaire. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid In this post-modernist exercise, star/writer Steve Martin and director Carl Reiner spoof the film noir yarns of the ’40s with Martin playing gumshoe Rigby Reardon, who interacts with a legion of Hollywood greats — including Humphrey Bogart, Kirk Douglas, Burt Lancaster, Edward Arnold, Barbara Stanwyck, Ingrid Bergman, Veronica Lake, Bette Davis, Lana Turner and Joan Crawford — in a succession of intercut clips from seventeen vintage Hollywood films. Rigby is a low-rent detective (his fee is $10 per day) sitting in his office, waiting for something to happen. That something happens when the voluptuous Juliet Forrest (Rachel Ward) arrives in his office and faints dead away at the sight of a newspaper that reports on her father’s death in a car accident. Juliet is convinced that her father was murdered and offers Rigby $200 to investigate. Upon searching Mr. Forrest’s office, he comes upon a list of names under the headings “The Friends and Enemies of Carlotta.” As the two delve deeper into the mystery and its requisite deceptions, they encounter an “exterminator,” Juliet’s surly Nazi butler, Field Marshal Von Kluck (Carl Reiner) and an overly helpful Mexican friend, Carlos Rodriguez (Reni Santoni). ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi The Lonely Guy In a comedy as flat as the cardboard cut-outs of movie stars that appear in one scene, Steve Martin plays Larry Hubbard, a wild and lonely guy who has been dumped by his girlfriend. Since misery loves company, he takes up with Wa
