Heavy Metal | DVD | (13/12/1999)
from £N/A
| Saving you £N/A (N/A%)
| RRP As long as there is a need for adolescent male sexual fantasy, there will be an audience for Heavy Metal. Released in 1981 and based on stories from the graphic magazine of the same name, this silly and senseless the movie is an aimless, juvenile amalgam of disjointed stories and clashing visual styles. Hundreds of animators from around the world were employed, resulting in a near-total absence of creative cohesion in the finished product. It remains, for better and worse, a midnight-movie favourite for the stoner crowd--a movie best enjoyed by randy adolescents or near-adults in an altered state of consciousness. With a framing story about a glowing green orb claiming to be the embodiment of all evil, the film shuttles through eight episodic tales of sci-fi adventure, each fuelled by some of the most wretched rock music to emerge from the late 1970s-early 80s period. The most consistent trademark is an abundance of blood-splattering violence and wet-dream sex, the latter involving a succession of huge-breasted babes who shed their clothes at the drop of a G-string. It's rampantly brainless desire to fuel the young male libido becomes rather fun, and for all its incoherence Heavy Metal impresses for the ambitious artistry of its individual segments. Produced by Ivan Reitman (who went on to direct Ghostbusters), the voice talents include several Canadian veterans of the Second City improvisation comedy troupe--including John Candy, Harold Ramis, Eugene Levy and Joe Flaherty--many of whom went on to greater fame on the US TV series Saturday Night Live. --Jeff Shannon DVD Special Features Feature-length Rough Cut with Optional Commentary by Carl MacEk, Production notes Theatrical trailer Documentary: Imagining Heavy Metal Art Galleries Deleted Scenes, Carl MacEk reading his book "Heavy Metal: The Movie" 1:85:1 widescreen anamorphic Dolby Digital 5.1

| RRP In 1974, Tobe Hooper changed the face of horror with his landmark ï¬lm The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Though the hulking Leatherface left an indelible mark upon the cinematic landscape, it wouldn't be until 1986 that the buzz came back in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2! Relocating the cannibalistic Sawyers to a cavernous labyrinth beneath an amusement park, Hooper's deliciously demented sequel sees local DJ Stretch running afoul of them when she gets mixed up in the brutal slaying of two youngsters. Meanwhile, Lieutenant Lefty Enright is hell-bent on avenging the murder of his nephew Franklin, who perished in the original massacre. Whichever way you skin it, Leatherface's second cinematic outing is an uncompromisingly delirious vision from one of the masters of horror. 2-DISC LIMITED EDITION CONTENTS ¢ Limited edition packaging featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Ilan Sheady and Dare Creative ¢ Booklet featuring new writing by Johnny Mains, Anna Bogutskaya, Guy Adams and Neil Mitchell ¢ Double-sided fold-out poster ¢ Texas Battle Land theme park postcard ¢ Chili cook-off recipe card ¢ Three double-sided collector's postcards DISC 1 (4K ULTRA HD BLU-RAY) THE FILM ¢ 4K restoration from the original negative ¢ 4K (2160p) UHD Blu-ray presentation in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible) ¢ Original lossless stereo 2.0 audio ¢ Optional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing ¢ Commentary with director Tobe Hooper ¢ Commentary with stars Bill Moseley, Caroline Williams and special effects legend Tom Savini ¢ Commentary with cinematographer Richard Kooris, production designer Cary White, script supervisor Laura Kooris and property master Michael Sullivan DISC 2 (BLU-RAY) BONUS FEATURES ¢ Are We Not Both the Living Dead?, new visual essay by Scout Tafoya ¢ You've Got Good Taste: Cannibal Camp and Perverse Parody, new visual essay by Miranda Corcoran ¢ Stretch Lives!, interview with Caroline Williams ¢ Serving Tom, interview with makeup effects artist Gabe Bartalos ¢ Texas Blood Bath, interview with makeup effects artist Barton Mixon ¢ Remember the Alamo, interview with actor Kirk Sisco ¢ Die Yuppie Scum, interview with actor Barry Kinyon ¢ Extended interviews with Tobe Hooper and co-producer Cynthia Hargrave, from Electric Boogaloo: The Wild, Untold Story of Cannon Films ¢ It Runs in the Family, (plus outtakes!) on the ï¬lm's genesis, making and enduring appeal ¢ House of Pain, interview with makeup effects artists Mixon, Bartalos, Gino Crognale and John Vulich ¢ Yuppie Meat, interview with actors Chris Douridas and Barry Kinyon ¢ Cutting Moments, interview with editor Alain Jakubowicz ¢ Behind the Mask and Cutting Moments with Bob Elmore, two interviews with Leatherface's performer ¢ Horror's Hallowed Grounds, featurette exploring the ï¬lm's locations ¢ Still Feelin' the Buzz, interview with horror expert Stephen Thrower ¢ Behind-the-scenes ¢ Alternate opening credits ¢ Deleted scenes ¢ Trailers and TV spots ¢ Still gallery

The Royle Family: The Complete Collection | DVD | (07/10/2013)
from £39.99
| Saving you £-10.00 (N/A%)
| RRP Iconic, multi-award winning comedy from Caroline Aherne and Craig Cash, The Royle Family is an unusual sitcom in that the action - or lack of it - mostly takes place in the living room of the Royle's house. Together they slump into comfortable yet tatty chairs, sip from endless cups of tea and are entertained by the drone of the always-on TV set in the corner. However, it's the show's subtle humour and surprisingly poignant moments that have seen it become a modern comedy classic. This collection includes all 20 episodes from the hit BBC series, plus the specials 'The Queen of Sheba', 'The New Sofa', 'The Golden Egg Cup', 'Joe's Crackers' and 'Barbara's Old Ring' The Queen of ShebaTension mounts in the Royle household as the family contemplates the prospect of becoming fully laminated throughout. Dr Mahmood prescribes new medication for Nana in the form of yellow tablets. These turn out to be the same colour as the tablets that Joe was prescribed for the swelling when he got his mickey stuck in his zip. Meanwhile, a mysterious ginger visitor reminds Nana of her favourite musical. Unmissable! The New SofaIt's a right Royle Christmas as Jim and Barbara go round to Denise and Dave's for Christmas Dinner. Dave's parents are also invited for what's supposed to be a Nigella-inspired Denise at her culinary best... so who knows what to expect! The Golden Egg CupThere's a real buzz in the Royle Family household as it's a special time for Jim and Barbara and a celebration (including hula-hoops, twiglets and scotch eggs) is planned. Poor Mary from next door can't be present though as, sadly; she has lost all bladder control and leaked in both the pound shop and John Lewis... Joe's Cracker'sIt's Christmas day at the Royle's and Barbara is up to her eyes in it as Jim is out of action due to an unfortunate incident in the supermarket. Dave and Denise are obviously feeling the coalition the most and worry that Anthony's lavish gifts will eclipse their gift of a fridge magnet. Joe reminisces about a tipsy evening of naked wrestling in front of the fire with Bobby Carter. Barbara's Old RingIt's beginning to look a lot like Christmas at The Royle's and Barbara's gone overboard with the presents. 'If you can't spoil your family at Christmas when can you?' she asks, having spent a whole two hours in Poundland. A new neighbour moves on to the street with an impressive cleavage but will she be welcome on the sofa? In a flash of seasonal entrepreneurial spirit Dave reveals the idea he intends to pitch to Dragon's Den. Will it take off and make them rich? Or is Jim's scratch card more likely to bring in the Christmas cheer? Joe, next door, is looking for love and places an advert in the Lonely Hearts column, 'Vacant Lady Wanted'. Who could resist?

LIFE OF RILEY (2014) (Masters of Cinema) Dual Format (Blu-ray & DVD) | Blu Ray | (25/05/2015)
from £N/A
| Saving you £N/A (N/A%)
| RRP Premièred at the 2014 Berlin Film Festival mere weeks before its director's sudden death at 92 the final film by master filmmaker Alain Resnais (Hiroshima mon amour Last Year at Marienbad Muriel Mélo Providence) marks his third adaptation penned by Laurent Herbiet and Alex Reval of a work by the English playwright Alan Ayckbourn (following Smoking / No Smoking and Private Fears in Public Places). When the eponymous George Riley never seen on-screen discovers he's been diagnosed with a terminal illness a circle of friends (played by such powerhouses as Sabine Azéma André Dussollier and Hippolyte Girardot) rally and spur him to take part in a play (another Ayckbourn work: Relatively Speaking) with the hope of enriching his final months. Soon after however George regains his life-force with full verve and reattracts the women in his group threatening their own domestic stability. With hyper-stylised sets nominally located in a fantastical Yorkshire; scene changes announced by cartoons by the French illustrator Blutch; and even an animatronic mole which critic Cristina Álvarez López describes in her accompanying essay as "not just a merciless metaphor of George winning over death and returning victoriously to life not only a sharp comment on the general patronising attitude toward those who are ill [but] also the best example of how fearlessly Resnais approaches the issues of life and death: as a matter of serious playfulness of charged lightness." It is that charged lightness ever-present throughout Resnais's body of work that makes Life of Riley (Aimer boire et chanter or To Love Drink and Sing) such a thrilling testament. The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to release Alain Resnais's (unintentional) swan song in a Dual Format special edition. Bonus Features: 1080p presentation of the film on the Blu-ray New and exclusive video interview about the film with critic and scholar Geoffrey O'Brien Original theatrical trailer Interviews with the cast 36-PAGE BOOKLET featuring a new essay by critic Cristina Álvarez López; a new note on his collaborations with Alain Resnais by playwright Alan Ayckbourn; and production imagery
