I remember my introduction to rabies came via a re-run episode of Diff’rent Strokes in which Arnold is bitten by a dog that’s suspected of being rabid.

I have to admit I wasn’t particularly excited to watch A Place in the Sun following its announcement from Imprint Films, No. 8 in the label’s second wave, and I’m not mistaken, the only one which hasn’t sold out …yet. Winner of six Oscars including Best Director for George Stevens, this tragic tale of love

Highly regarded as a staple of British horror, this unnerving classic

I write this review from the land Down Under with envious eyes, where pizza is universally loved by us Aussies, but is greatly varied in quality. Most small town take away outlets are only defined by their respective business name, while the more ethically rich capitals offer something a little closer to its Italian roots.

Since my last Imprint Films review, I was happy to see that The Carpetbaggers and Night Falls on Manhattan have sold out, which will hopefully prompt a second printing in the near future. No Way to Treat a Lady is one of three premium Blu-ray releases that remain, a classic black comedy based on William

If you’re a keen-eye fan of Hammer Films you’ll immediately notice the striking resemblance to their 1965 paranoid-thriller Die! Die! My Darling! has with Lamont Johnson’s You’ll Like My Mother, which arrived on Australian shelves earlier this month, September 2nd, from Cinema Cult. In the dead of winter, a recently widowed woman, Francesca (Patty Duke),
