Bride Of Chucky [1998] [DVD]

This Dvd Is New & Factory Sealed – Becoming Very Collectable – One For The Avid Fan.Brace yourself: this is a clever, consistently entertaining and even inspired continuation of the mean-spirited slasher series. For those not in the know, Chucky is a mop-top kid’s doll come to life with the soul of a serial killer and the voice of Brad Dourif (doing his best Jack Nicholson). Revived by his former paramour Tiffany (Jennifer Tilly, looking every inch a life-size Barbie in stiletto heels and skintight black leather), Chucky proceeds to turn his human sweetie into a pint-sized Talking Tina doll with attitude, and together they hit the road for a magic amulet and young new bodies to inhabit. They hitch a ride with sweet young runaways Katherine Heigl and Nick Stabile and leave a trail of corpses bloodied, burned and cut to ribbons. The kids are cute, but the real heat is generated by the latex lovers who use murder as foreplay and consummate their renewed romance in a night of passionate sex (“Shouldn’t you wear a rubber?” “I’m all rubber!”). Hong Kong director Ronny Yu (The Bride with White Hair) directs with a light touch and against all odds transforms walking dolls Chucky and Tiffany into funny, energetic, full-blooded characters: l’amour fou has never been more crazy. John Ritter costars as Heigl’s overprotective uncle (another obstacle on the road to dolly freedom) and Alexis Arquette is hilarious as a lanky goth nerd. The wild conclusion leaves room for another high-concept sequel.” –Sean Axmaker, Amazon.com

The Postman Always Rings Twice [1946] [DVD]

Posted by Notcot on Sep 15, 2010 in Noir

Average Rating: 4.0 / 5 (16 Reviews)

Even under the heavy censorship of 1946 Hollywood, Lana Turner and John Garfield’s libidinous desires burn up the screen in Tay Garnett’s adaptation of James M. Cain’s torrid crime melodrama. Platinum blond Turner is Cora, a restless sexpot stuck in a roadside diner married to mundane middle-aged fry cook Nick Smith (Cecil Kellaway) when handsome drifter Frank (Garfield) blows her way. It’s lust at first sight, a rapacious desire that neither can break off, and before long they’re plotting his demise–but in the wicked world of Cain nothing is that easy. Garnett’s visual approach is subdued compared to the more expressionistic film noir of the period, but he’s at no loss when he films the luminous Turner in her milky-white wardrobe. She radiates repressed sexuality and uncontrollable passion while Garfield’s smart-talking loner Frank mixes street-smart swagger and scrappy toughness with vulnerability and sincere intensity. Co-star Hume Cronyn cuts a cold, calculating figure as their conniving lawyer, a chilly character that only increases our feelings for the murderous couple, victims of an all-consuming amour fou that drives their passions to extremes. –Sean Axmaker, Amazon.com
