Batman: Mask
of the Phantasm- Batman is wrongly implicated in a series of murders of mob
bosses that is actually committed by a new vigilante assassin. It is about time this made it to blu
ray. This is one of the best Batman
movies ever and this was made during the Animated series run so it has all the
best talent that show had to offer at the time.
I love that they still use voice talents Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill in
some of the new animated movies. Highly
recommended.
Silkwood- A worker at a plutonium processing plant is purposefully
contaminated, psychologically tortured and possibly murdered to prevent her
from exposing worker safety violations at the plant. I have always liked this drama even when I
was a kid because director Mike Nichols (The Graduate) just made the surroundings
of this movie seem and feel like everyday life and the three leads in this are
absolutely fabulous.
Slither- A small town is taken over by an alien plague, turning
residents into zombies and all forms of mutant monsters. Do you know director James Gunn? He only wrote and directed those little
Guardians of the Galaxy movies. This was
his first feature movie and it is quite good and had a cult following even
before his break through films. Just
watch this and you will see the look, feel, and even some of the same troupe of
actors that are in Guardians and notice that Disney let Gunn do his own thing
and that is awesome.
Re-Animator- A dedicated student at a medical college and his girlfriend
become involved in bizarre experiments centering around the re-animation of
dead tissue when an odd new student arrives on campus. This has been issued on blu before but this
is from the great Arrow Films so it will probably be a notch up on the previous
release.
