Attack of the Crab Monsters (DVD) » Attack of the Crab Monsters (DVD)

Roger Corman directed this big-crab classic in which a crew of scientists investigates a nuclear fallout-stricken atoll in the Pacific. There isn't a sign of life on the island, but the researchers hear voices calling to them at night, and when they investigate they are promptly clawed and eaten. It seems these gigantic mutant crabs absorb the intelligence of their victims and can speak in their voices. Russell Johnson (the Professor from GILLIGAN'S ISLAND) is a demolition expert who manages to fall in love with betrothed biologist Martha Hunter (Pamela Duncan) before the crab business gets too critical, which isn't long. Mel Welles, Leslie Bradley, and Richard Garland costar as concerned scientists and future brain food. Corman works efficiently from an intelligent script by Charles B. Griffith, achieving a brisk pace that masks the low budget. Beach Dickerson and Ed Nelson are sailors who get eaten (they also operate the crabs for Corman, and in some scenes their legs are visible). This is a fun early example of the pick'em off one by one mode of horror storytelling that would later be adopted in such films as ALIEN and FRIDAY THE 13TH.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Additional Release Material: Trailer - 1.

Sub Pop Video Network: Program 1 (DVD) » Sub Pop Video Network: Program 1 (DVD)

The irrepressible Jonathan Poneman and Bruce Pavitt formed the Sub Pop label after stumbling across a goldmine of musical talent in the Pacific Northwest. Kick-starting the grunge phenomenon with a variety of crucial releases (including early classics from Nirvana, Mudhoney, Tad, and others), the label made its mark through immaculate packaging, incredible music, and in Poneman and Pavitt a pair of media savvy head honcho's who knew a thing or two about wooing music journalists over to their side. This video compilation documents the early days of the label's output, including an exclusive version of In Bloom by Nirvana, and tracks by Mudhoney, Tad, former Screaming Trees frontman Mark Lanegan, irreverent Brit garage band Thee Headcoats, the controversial Dwarves, and oddball indie-poppers Beat Happening.

Five Easy Pieces (DVD) » Five Easy Pieces (DVD)

FIVE EASY PIECES is one of the most notable collaborations between Jack Nicholson and director Bob Rafelson, with Nicholson in an outstanding performance as Bobby Dupea. In the film, Rafelson and Nicholson capture the difficult, awkward life of a gifted man who hasn't discovered a way to fully express his talent or found his place in the world--and maybe never will.Bobby is a classic misfit--disillusioned about being a musician, unhappy as an oil rigger, and unable to make a commitment to his girlfriend, Rayette, who hopes for marriage. When he visits his family home on Puget Sound after a long absence, things don't get better. Bobby hates the repressive atmosphere: his brother is unbearable, his father can't speak, and his sister is involved with his father's supercilious male nurse. When Bobby sets his sights on his brother's fiancee, Catherine Van Ost (movingly played by the beautiful Susan Anspach), things seem to be getting better--that is, until Rayette arrives and Bobby realizes he is caught in a collision between his two lives. The film features characteristically gorgeous cinematography from Laszlo Kovaks and a soundtrack that skillfully offsets Tammy Wynette with Chopin. FIVE EASY PIECES is a riveting American story about a former musical ingenue whose gift becomes a burden to him as he grapples with the implications of his choices in work, relationships, and family.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseAnamorphic Widescreen - 1.85Audio: Dolby Digital Mono - EnglishAdditional Release Material: Trailer - 1.
