The Red Spectacles – Widescreen Subtitle Dolby $14.99 Years after fleeing the city to escape the wrath of an elite team of metropolitan police infected by corruption, a senior detective returns to the city to uncover the secrets of the past in director Mamoru Oshii’s nightmarish totalitarian thriller. Though the Kerberos were originally created to fight back against a world fallen to chaos, it didn’t take long for the fearsome police force to succumb to the effects of greed and transform into a force of evil. When three members of the Kerberos decided to buck the system, the only one of the trio to escape with his life was police detective Koichi Todome. Years have passed since that failed uprising, and now as Todome returns to the city, he will find that his struggle to survive has only just begun. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Wildest Australia - $9.99 As hosted by naturalist Greg Grainger – one of the world’s leading experts on Australian fauna – the hour-long documentary program Wildest Australia visits each major geographic region of the titular continent, for a firsthand exploration of the unique and wondrous species which make up that area’s animal populace. The program works in such spectacles as the daily ascents of tree kangaroos, the release of coral polyps on the Great Barrier Reef, the quarrels of a clan of Tasmanian Devils and the behavior of a Kookaburra. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Lords of the Wild - $9.99 Naturalist Greg Grainger’s documentary Lords of the Wild depicts many scenes of different bear species engaging with one another in a fight for survival – with spectacles ranging from a pair of polar bears grappling in the snow to a grizzly playing aggressively with her bear cub. On a broader level, however, the film posits a far graver and more sobering truth by meditating on the impending extinction of many ursine species in the global ecosystem. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Invisible Man: The Legacy Collection [2 Pack] – Subtitle $24.99 Includes:The Invisible Man (1933) The Invisible Man Returns (1940) The Invisible Woman (1940) Invisible Agent (1942) The Invisible Man’s Revenge (1944) The Invisible Man A mysterious stranger, his face swathed in bandages and his eyes obscured by dark spectacles, has taken a room at a cozy inn in the British village of Ipping. Never leaving his quarters, the stranger demands that the staff leave him completely alone. Working unmolested with his test tubes, the stranger does not notice when …

Amazing Planet Earth: From Egypt to Israel - $12.99 Taking as its central axiom the idea that civilization’s wonders range from the open and plainly visible to the discreetly hidden and concealed, the Questar documentary series Amazing Planet Earth covers the whole spectrum — leading viewers on a guided tour of the best and least-known of the Earth’s spectacles, country by country and region by region. Per its title, the episode ‘From Egypt to Israel’ travels through the two Middle Eastern countries where modern civilization first gestated. Sites on display in this journey include the Nile delta, a Cairo bazaar, the Egypt Museum and the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt; and The Dome of The Rock, the Western Wall and Masada in Israel. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

The Unreal Story of Pro Wrestling - $14.99 The world of professional wrestling is peopled by giants of men and women whose names often reflect their size and girth or fierceness. Marketing and public relations play a big part in this multi-million-dollar entertainment industry, in which fan allegiance depends as much on image as skill. This program from the History Channel examines the history of wrestling and its evolution into today’s televised spectacles. Interviews with wrestlers, fans, sports historians, and psychologists give the viewer an inside look at the phenomenon of modern pro wrestling. Archival film footage presents excerpts from some of the most exciting matches in the sport’s history. ~ Rose of Sharon Winter, Rovi

The Marvels of Madagascar - $9.99 Per its title, the documentary Marvels of Madagascar broadly compasses the fauna and populace of Madagascar, an island nation in the Indian Ocean just off the southeast African coast. Australian film producer and naturalist Greg Grainger roughly spends equal time on the animal and human elements; spectacles covered from the former category include many views of the island’s 32 varieties of lemurs and glimpses of the Parson’s chameleon, while elements of the documentary that focus on the Malagasy people include such highlights as a discussion of the OFady’ religion and trips to Malagasy wrestling events and music festivals. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Atlantis, the Lost Continent – Widescreen $24.99 Director George Pal is noted as a special effects maestro, both in films for children that feature his “puppetoons” and in sci-fi spectacles like the War of the Worlds. So it is no surprise that this sci-fi yarn about the fabled sunken continent of Atlantis should excel in the special effects department. Otherwise, the story is a clich?d tale about Demetrios (Anthony Hall) a Greek fisherman who is tempted into going to Atlantis by Antillia (Joyce Taylor), a princess of that doomed land. Demetrios is soon trapped into slavery, a situation which leads him to hobnob with the oppressed masses and plan a strategy to get them out of there before the rumblings of imminent submersion send the whole kit and caboodle into the briny deep. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

The Incredible Mr. Limpet - $4.99 In this amusing fantasy, a combination of live-action and animated effects, Don Knotts plays scrawny bookkeeper Henry Limpet, who longs to help the U.S. after the outbreak of World War II. He becomes depressed after being turned down by the Navy, particularly after his pal George (Jack Weston) is accepted. When Henry takes a walk on the Coney Island pier with his wife Bessie (Carole Cook), he falls into the water and is transformed into a fish, complete with his reading spectacles. Henry finally gets to help the war effort by helping to track down Nazi U boats for the Navy. Andrew Duggan and Larry Keating play the admirals who spearhead the secret mission involving the transformed Henry. Longtime Disney production associate John Rose was the producer of this film, and the influence of the animation is evident. ~ Dan Pavlides, Rovi

In Love with Life – B&W $5.99 Like many Chesterfield-Invincible films of the era, In Love with Life is built around the talents of a prominent character — in this case, curmudgeonly Claude Gillingwater Sr. Having disowned his daughter Sharon (Lila Lee), mean old millionaire Morley adopts his grandson (Dickie Moore), the only person he truly cares about. Comes the Wall Street crash, and Morley’s fortune is wiped out. It is then he realizes how much he loves his estranged daughter, leading to a tearful reconciliation. Onslow Stevens co-stars as “The Professor,” emphasizing the bookishness of his characterization with a pair off ill-fitting spectacles. In Love With Life isn’t exactly a barrel of laughs, but it gets by on its sentimental value. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The Flowers of St. Francis - $21.99 Flowers of St. Francis (Francesco, giullare di Dio) is an early example of the “commercial” side of Roberto Rossellini. The film traces the life of St. Francis, from his embracing of religion to his efforts to establish a harmonious middle ground between life and spirituality. Rosselini has given us a “chamber” film, deliberately avoiding the overblown vulgarity of Hollywood religious spectacles. The director’s assistant and cowriter on this project was Federico Fellini. Unfortunately, Roberto Rossellini was under a cloud in the US thanks to L’affaire Bergman, so Flowers of St. Francis (made right after Stromboli) was not given an immediate American release in 1950. When it finally did get to our shores, at least two reels were cut; we recommend the somewhat more thorough British release version. ~ Hal Erickson, 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

Howards End – Widescreen AC3 Special $34.99 One of the best Ismail Merchant/James Ivory films, this adaptation of E. M. Forster’s classic 1910 novel shows in careful detail the injuriously rigid British class consciousness of the early 20th century. The film’s catalyst is “poor relation” Margaret Schlegel (Emma Thompson), who inherits part of the estate of Ruth Wilcox (Vanessa Redgrave), an upper-class woman whom she had befriended. The film’s principal characters are divided by caste: aristocratic industrial Henry Wilcox (Anthony Hopkins); middle-echelon Margaret and her sister Helen (Helena Bonham Carter); and working-class clerk Leonard Bast (Sam West) and his wife (Nicola Duffett). The personal and social conflicts among these characters ultimately result in tragedy for Bast and disgrace for Wilcox, but the film’s wider theme remains the need, in the words of the novel’s famous epigram, to “only connect” with other people, despite boundaries of gender, class, or petty grievance. Filmed on a proudly modest budget, Howards End offers sets, spectacles, and costumes as lavish as in any historical epic. Nominated for 9 Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Director, the film took home awards for Thompson as Best Actress, Ruth Prawer Jhabvala’s adapted screenplay, and Luciana Arrighi’s art direction. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Thirteen Ghosts/House of Wax – Subtitle AC3 $9.99 Includes:13 Ghosts (2001), MPAA Rating: R House of Wax (2005), MPAA Rating: R 13 Ghosts 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.

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

Hollywood Cavalcade – Fullscreen Subtitle $12.99 Hollywood Cavalcade was a fictionalized history of silent films and the growth of the movie industry. Don Ameche portrays a character based on equal portions of Mack Sennett and D. W. Griffith, while Alice Faye’s silent star is an amalgam of Mabel Normand and Gloria Swanson. Ameche breaks into pictures with slapstick comedies, initiating the first “pie throwing” scene, with Buster Keaton the thrower and Alice Faye the throw-ee. Thanks to Ameche, Faye becomes a major comedy star, appearing in wild Keystone Kops chase comedies. But success goes to Ameche’s head, and soon he’s staging elaborate Intolerance-like historical spectacles. As Ameche’s artistic aspirations climb, his relationship with the faithful Alice deteriorates. She finds solace with her young leading man (Alan Curtis) and becomes a top dramatic star. Having made and lost several fortunes, Ameche talks Alice into appearing in his “comeback” picture, but shortly before filming ends, she and her husband are in a serious auto accident. The husband is killed, and as Faye recuperates, Ameche agonizes over how he’ll save his uncompleted masterpiece. He witnesses the premiere of Al Jolson’s part-talking The Jazz Singer and decides to risk everything by scrapping his film and remaking it as a talkie. Faye, who’s never really stopped loving Ameche, agrees to star in this new project. On a level of accuracy, Hollywood Cavalcade is for the birds, but it scores on its energetic performances and nostalgic appeal. As a bonus, several past movie greats appear in cameos: Al Jolson, Buster Keaton, Mack Sennett, Ben Turpin, Chester Conklin, Jimmy Finlayson, Hank Mann and even Rin Tin Tin Jr. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Mondo Bizarro/Mondo Freudo – Special $9.99 Includes:Mondo Bizarro (1966) Mondo Freudo (1968) Mondo Bizarro Exploitation veterans Bob Cresse and Lee Frost produced and directed this documentary of curious customs, inspired by the 1962 mega-hit Mondo Cane. “What is beyond the beyond? Most of us don’t even know what is behind the beyond.” Among the more bizarre spectacles on display: two-way mirrors in a lingerie shop dressing room, secret voodoo rituals, a sado-masochistic play about Nazis staged in Germany, homosexual prostitution, a white slavery auction in Saudi Arabia, Japanese food massages, unsanitary body modifications, glass eating, and the wild indulgences of modern art. While there is no encompassing theme to the topics covered, most scenes allow ample opportunities for young women to get topless. Mondo Bizarro is narrated with tongue firmly in cheek by Claude Emmand, billed here as “Director of Information at the Parkinson Natural Museum of World History.” Earlier the same year, Cresse and Frost gave their audiences the similarly-fashioned Mondo Freudo. ~ Fred Beldin, Rovi Mondo Freudo This ludicrous pseudo-documentary directed by exploitation veteran R. Lee Frost features a great deal of faked footage and too many homely strippers. The sights on display include couples “caught” making love on the beach; teenagers cruising Hollywood Boulevard; burlesque clubs in San Francisco and London; billboards for prostitutes; an interview with two half-naked lesbians; a topless bikini fashion-show; Japanese topless watusi clubs; a beatnik artist who paints on nude women; a slave-auction in Tijuana; a Japanese S&M club featuring whipping and clubbing; and mud-wrestling in Germany (in front of a poster for the mondo movie Sexy Proibitissimo). The best scenes are set in New York, where some amusing fake prostitutes chat up a john, and a Santeria-inspired black mass is staged complete with a pig’s severed head bleeding on a topless virgin. Modern viewers will not take this silly sideshow too seriously, but it was banned in many locales upon release. Frost and producer Bob Cresse teamed again the same year for Mondo Bizarro. ~ Robert Firsching, Rovi

Amor Festa Devocao – Ao Vivo $26.99 Maria Beth?nia’s art always had a strong theatrical element, so much so than in Brazil her live performances are typically more highly anticipated than her studio albums. Unsurprisingly, Beth?nia has released any number of live albums. In fact, in recent times she has adopted the custom of following her ambitious studio projects with a DVD/CD package of the corresponding show, generally one year later. Accordingly, after the much acclaimed 2009 diptych Encanteria/Tua, 2010 saw the release of the double live album (and her seventh DVD!), Amor, Festa, Devo?ao. How many artists could get away with a double live album that includes maybe just two or three of her best loved songs? Well, Beth?nia, for sure. Her concerts are not your typical greatest hits parade; rather, they are theatrical spectacles centered around a main theme, the same one introduced in the studio album the show is presenting. They rely heavily on the new material, augmented by bits of spoken poetry and a few compositions from Beth?nia’s past that may fit the bill, as well as several medleys -a song form Beth?nia is particularly fond of. In a way, her shows are as much about performance as about her choices and combinations (of written texts with songs, of songs with other songs in the medleys, etc). They highlight Beth?nia the singer as much as Beth?nia the musical anthropologist. In both counts, they are routinely artistic triumphs: the flow of the shows is seamless, even when accommodating highly disparate sources, and her magical voice, already a force of nature in the studio albums, finds her true home in the stage -check her brief a cappella rendition of “Curare,” a pearl in a sea of riches. Amor, Festa, Devo?ao follows the pattern to a T, as it discusses in song Love, Celebration, and Devotion (the themes of Encanteria/Tua), and it features a whooping twenty-one songs culled from her 2009 releases, heard here almost in their entirety. The shadow of brother Caetano Veloso is never far away: Beth?nia honors him with a gorgeous slow version of his 1982 classic “Queixa,” as well as recording “Dama do Cassino” for the first time. It should be mentioned, however, that there is nothing in Amor, Festa, Devo?ao to recommend it above any of the previous Beth?nia live releases, built along similar lines. But then again, there is no reason whatsoever not to, since there is amazingly very little material overlap and it abundantly illustrates the standard of excellence that Maria Beth?nia has come to incarnate. ~ Mariano Prunes

The Invisible Man - $12.99 A mysterious stranger, his face swathed in bandages and his eyes obscured by dark spectacles, has taken a room at a cozy inn in the British village of Ipping. Never leaving his quarters, the stranger demands that the staff leave him completely alone. Working unmolested with his test tubes, the stranger does not notice when the landlady inadvertently walks into his room one morning. But she notices that her guest seemingly has no head! The stranger, one Jack Griffin, is a scientist, who’d left Ipping several months earlier while conducting a series of tests with a strange new drug called monocane. He returns to the laboratory of his mentor, Dr. Cranley (Henry Travers), where he reveals his secret to onetime partner Dr. Kemp (William Harrigan) and former fiancee Flora Cranley (Gloria Stuart). Monocane is a formula for invisibility, and has rendered Griffin’s entire body undetectable to the human eye. Alas, monocane has also had the side effect of driving Griffin insane. With megalomanic glee, Griffin takes Kemp into his confidence, explaining how he plans to prove his superiority over other humans by wreaking as much havoc as possible. At first, his pranks are harmless; then, without batting an eyelash, he turns to murder, beginning with the strangling of a comic-relief constable. When Kemp tries to turn Griffin over to the police, he himself is marked for death. Despite elaborate measures taken by the police, Griffin is able to murder Kemp, considerately taking the time to describe his homicidal methods to his helpless victim. After a reign of terror costing hundreds of lives, Griffin is cornered in a barn, his movements betrayed by his footsteps in the snow. Mortally wounded by police bullets, Griffin is taken to a hospital, where he regretfully tells Flora that he’s paying the price for meddling into Things Men Should Not Know. As Griffin dies, his face becomes slowly visible: first the skull, then the nerve endings, then layer upon layer of raw flesh, until he is revealed to be Claude Rains, making his first American film appearance. So forceful was Rains’ verbal performance as “The Invisible One” that he became an overnight movie star (after nearly twenty years on stage). Wittily scripted by R.C. Sherriff and an uncredited Philip Wylie, and brilliantly directed by James Whale, The Invisible Man is a near-untoppable combination of horror and humor. Also deserving of unqualified praise are the thorouhgly convincing special effects by John P. Fulton and John Mescall. With the exception of The Invisible Man Returns, none of the sequels came anywhere close to the quality of the 1933 original. Trivia alert: watch for Dwight “Renfield” Frye as a bespectacled reporter, Walter Brennan as the man whose bicycle was stolen, and John Carradine as the fellow in the phone booth who’s “gawt a plan to ketch the h’invisible man.” ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
