    A DVD-flashback of early 80s Berlin subculture featuring output by virtuosos of the city's underground movie scene who rediscovered Super 8 as an adequate outlet for their creative endeavours. Accompanied by a compilation of music, covering a huge range of styles and currents - from punk to ingenious dilettantes, this lavish package recalls the walled in city's unique feel and lifestyle. By no means a nostalgic review of times long gone, but rather an appraisal (with no claim to completeness) of a creative Berlin which to this day exerts its influence on German pop culture and beyond. Featuring 'Die tdliche Doris', 'Einstrzende Neubauten', 'Malaria' and many others of the scene's protagonists. Besides the DVD featuring elaborately restored Super 8 films (running time: approx. 120 minutes, NTSC), the luxurious package (special digipak) also contains a CD compilation of Berlin bands from the period of '79-'84 as well as a 48 page booklet with lyrics, essays, background information and photographs by Peter Gruchot. In addition, the DVD itself features extensive bonus material: discographies and photo series (more than 250 photos!) plus interview with Wolfgang Mller (of Die Tdliche Doris).

    IMAX is a format designed to top anything that standard cinema can achieve. So five years after Jurassic Park here's the biggest wow-factor achievable with CGI dinosaurs, in less than half the screen time. The cute kid being ignored by her parents is Ally (Liz Stauber). Her dad is Palaeontologist Dr. Hayden (Thirtysomething's Peter Horton), and out at Red Deer River in Alberta, Canada he's just discovered what Ally theorises may be a T-Rex egg. The archaeological work is known as "digging into Deep Time". When she accidentally cracks the egg, Ally is suddenly propelled through a bone-strewn time warp. Floating through times surrounding the Cretaceous Era, she meets painter Charles Knight and then the "most famous bone digger in history", Barnum Brown. Both encourage her to pursue her theory of parental instincts regardless of anyone's indifference. With some impressive dinosaur scares, this is a fun if familiar ride.On the DVD: originally intended for 3-D viewing on the big screen, T-Rex is still effective shrunk to 1.33:1 widescreen. It's coupled with an excellent 5.1 Dolby sound mix that separates the roars nicely around the room. There's one trailer included, as well as a five-minute behind the scenes featurette with on-set interviews. --Paul Tonks

  • Children Of The Corn [1984]Children Of The Corn | DVD | (16/10/2000) from £10.46   |  Saving you £-0.47 (N/A%)   |  RRP £9.99

    The murder rate is as high as an elephant's eye in Children of the Corn, a flaccid adaptation of Stephen King's short story. While driving through Nebraska en route to a new job, medico Burt (Peter Horton) and his wife Vicky (a pre-Terminator Linda Hamilton) nearly run over a mutilated boy who staggers from the cornfields. Seeking help, they enter the town of Gatlin, whose under-20 residents have butchered their parents per the decree of junior-grade holy-roller Isaac (John Franklin), who preaches the word of a being called "He Who Walks Behind the Rows". King's original story (from his 1978 collection Night Shift) was a lean and brutal mélange of Southern-Gothic atmosphere and EC Comics-style gore, which scripter Greg Goldsmith effectively neutralises by adding a youthful narrator (a grating Robbie Kiger) and putting an upbeat spin on the story's morbid conclusion. Fritz Kiersch's direction is TV-movie flat, with the sole inspired moment (hideous religious iconography glimpsed during a bloody "service") delivered as a throwaway. Aside from Horton and Courtney Gains (as Isaac's hatchet man Malachai), the performances are dreadful. The depiction of the monster-God as a sort of giant gopher inspires more laughter than terror. Amazingly, the film spawned six sequels; Franklin (Cousin It in the Addams Family films) later appeared in and wrote 1999's Children of the Corn 666.--Paul Gaita, Amazon.com

    The headmaster of St Michael's school Dr Benjamin Twist (Will Hay) finds himself in hot water after a government inspection. He is asked to resign unless he can prove that his educational methods work and so when he comes into possession of the French paper he does not need much coaxing before showing it to his students.

  • Will Hay - Convict 99 [1936]Will Hay - Convict 99 | DVD | (03/12/2001) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £9.99

    One of Will Hay’s brisker comic efforts, 1936’s Convict 99 sees Dr Benjamin Twist, Hay’s clueless schoolmaster, caught in a case of mistaken identity and invited to head up a prison for especially hard-boiled criminals. Unable to believe his luck, Dr Twist celebrates his success with a few drinks, is still drunk when he arrives to take up his post and, confused with a new batch of inmates, ends up behind bars himself. There he makes the acquaintance of Moore Marriott as "Jerry the Mole", who has been digging an escape tunnel for nigh on 40 years and is only a fortnight away from his release date. When eventually reinstated as governor, Hay runs a loose ship, with inmates waited on by wardens, allowed to bet and even play the stock market. However, when a criminal on the outside attempts to defraud Twist, their indignation is naturally aroused. Convict 99 is a typical outtake from Hay’s bizarrely lawless universe, in which for all his harrumphing and bluster, he’s unable to exercise any sort of discipline whatsoever over the men in his charge. Hay plays exactly the same character from film to film, one so ill-equipped for any situation he’s equally suited for all. Whereas Twist is an incompetent who somehow muddles through, Hay the comic actor is a master of timing and double-takes who knows precisely how to create the air of a shambles. On the DVD: the original 1930s film stock has been well restored, give or take the odd crackle. But there are no extras, except scene index. --David Stubbs
