Put Charles Grodin together with a 200-pound Saint Bernard and you're likely to come up with some good laughs. In this popular family comedy from 1992 Grodin plays a beleaguered dad who reluctantly lets his kids keep the lost puppy they've adopted. The dog quickly grows into the huge and clever hound named Beethoven. In a marked departure from his nice-guy roles in several Disney comedies from the 1960s and 70s, Dean Jones plays the villainous veterinarian who abducts Beethoven to be a subject in his sadistic animal experiments. The kidnapping sets the stage for a raucous rescue and, of course, an inevitable sequel. Innocuous but harmlessly entertaining, Beethoven is one of those movies that some kids can't get enough of. --Jeff Shannon

One of David Cronenberg's most successful early films, Rabid features porn star Marilyn Chambers as a woman who becomes infected with a virus after an operation. As result she grows a kind of phallus with which she penetrates her victims as she sucks their blood and thus the disease spreads rapidly. The film displays all Cronenberg's usual horrified fascination with the human body and its sexual function. Looking back, it can be read as a kind of parable about AIDS, but it works perfectly well as an effective low-budget shocker. On the DVD: the widescreen image on the DVD is acceptable quality, as is the sound. The fairly routine extras consist of excerpts from a TV interview with Cronenberg, lasting about 10 minutes; a collection of stills from the film; some written notes by horror expert Kim Newman that give useful background, though in part reproduce what is said in the interview; full filmographies for Cronenberg and the three principal performers, including a long list of Chambers' porn credits. --Ed Buscombe
Lost Highway has been described by its director as a 21st century film noir a graphic investigation into parallel identity crises a world where time is dangerously out of control and finally a terrifying ride down the lost highway. With typically Lynchian dreamlike quality Lost Highway expands the horizons of the medium taking its audience on a journey through the unknown and the unknowable. It is not only about the human psyche it seems to take place inside it. Set in a city of Lynch's imagination Lost Highway focuses on two separate but intersecting stories. One about musician Fred Madison (Bill Pullman) tortured by the notion that his wife Renee (Patricia Arquette) is having an affair who suddenly finds himself accused of her murder. The other concerns a young mechanic (Balthazar Getty) drawn into a web of deceit by a temptress who is cheating on her gangster boyfriend (Robert Loggia). The tales are connected by a mind-blowing turn of events that calls into question the protagonists' very identities. It all makes for a classic Lynchian nightmare.
