• Four Guns To The Border | DVD | (09/05/2016) from £4.99   |  Saving you £8.00 (160.32%)   |  RRP £12.99

  A smoulderingly laconic Rory Calhoun stars as Cully, charismatic leader of a gang of outlaws on the run after a bank robbery. Their dash for the border is brought to an abrupt halt by a chance meeting with an old compadre and his beautiful young daughter. Taking refuge from a storm in a barn, it's lust at first sight for Cully and the luscious Lolly Bhumer (Colleen Miller) but her trigger-happy father (Walter Brennan) soon puts a stop to that. Fate soon brings them back together when Cully and his men find the father and daughter being attacked by a band of renegade apaches.Heroically, Cully sacrifices his escape from the Sheriff's posse in order to rescue them. This is former actor Richard Carlson's second film and his first Western and perhaps that's why this adaptation of Louis L'Amour's novel is so exceptionally original for its genre. With a terrific supporting cast, including Walter Brennan, John McIntire and Charles Drake, this is a thoughtful and character-driven film. It's also sumptuously shot and thanks to the powerful sexual chemistry between Cully and Lolly, it exudes a steamy sensuality you wouldn't expect to find in a fifties Western!

• Raining Stones | DVD | (29/04/2002) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £9.99

  Raining Stones is classic Ken Loach--an overtly bleak piece of drama shot through with defiant humour, a story of life beyond the edge of society. Bob (Bruce Jones in a role that foreshadows his more ludicrous Coronation Street character) is unemployed and struggling to make ends meet, especially with the added pressure of his young daughter's first communion and the expense involved. And that's it really--one man's struggle to maintain his dignity and provide for his family. Despite the film's frequent moments of comedy (more often than not provided by Loach regular Ricky Tomlinson), Raining Stones is ultimately more than a little disheartening. The film is in many ways similar to Loach's previous film, Riff Raff (1991), but here the examples of a community pulling together are countered with backstabbing and exploitation. In the end, there are no winners or losers in Loach's world, only those who survive and those who don't. --Phil Udell
