Crying Out Love, In The Center Of The World - R2 Japan 2-Disc SE £20.00

Cover: http://www.boomspeed.com/gpr79/cryingout.JPG

"Excellent film, to avoid spoilers I'm limiting the review to this short
comment - An extremely well-told tale of tragic romance that avoids the
emotional pitfalls typically associated with melodramatic tearjerkers.
With its compelling premise and winning performances (Masami Nagasawa,
in particular) this film is one box office hit (Japan 2004) that lives
up to the hype. Seek it out before the inevitable Hollywood remake! "

Wes Craven's Dracula Trilogy SE's £25.00

"Dracula 2001 - As a director, Wes Craven has been able to infuse his
horror movies with humor and some smart, often genuinely creepy,
thrills, even on his lowest-budgeted films. As a producer of horror
movies, well, his record has been spotty at best. Craven tapped his
longtime editor Patrick Lussier to direct Dracula 2000, and the movie
ends up with all the good and bad of "a Wes Craven production." A
modern-day update of the Dracula legend, the script has some genuinely
good ideas. Christopher Plummer (The Insider) takes a relatively juicy
role as Van Helsing, owner of an antiques shop specializing in ancient
weapons. He takes exception to how his namesake was portrayed in Bram
Stoker's classic novel, which he's more than happy to tell his assistant
(Jonny Lee Miller, "Sick Boy" from Trainspotting) without telling him
the whole story. When Omar Epps leads a band of high-tech criminals to
break into Van Helsing's high security vault (thinking that with so much
security there's got to be something extremely valuable in there), what
they end up stealing is the body of Dracula, who of course awakens from
his slumber. When the story shifts to New Orleans, where Van Helsing's
estranged daughter is working for the local Virgin Megastore (here
metaphor is replaced by product placement), Dracula is drawn to her. The
undead start to multiply, and the vampire hunt resumes. Another
excellent idea deals with a new origin to Dracula, flashing back to
biblical times to explain his aversion to silver and crosses.

Dracula II: Ascension - Did someone say Dracula II? Like there haven't
been a few hundred Dracula movies already? Oh well: Dracula II:
Ascension is a sequel to Dracula 2000, with the ageless vampire again
returning from apparent extinction. The twist is that Dracula's blood
will be used by a researcher (baroque performance by Craig Sheffer) to
reverse the effects of a crippling disease; Sheffer's assistants (read:
vampire fodder) will help. Joining this scientific survey (and the
highlight of the film!) is long-haired vampire slaying priest Jason
Scott Lee, who seems to have stalked in from another picture wielding a
silver sickle and a razor blade encrusted whip!

Dracula III: Legacy - More horror-filled terror in the modern DRACULA
series presented by Wes Craven, DRACULA III: LEGACY adds Rutger Hauer
(CONFESSIONS OF A DANGEROUS MIND, THE HITCHER) to a hot returning cast
starring Jason Scott Lee (THE JUNGLE BOOK), Jason London (GRIND, OUT
COLD) and Roy Scheider (JAWS). The feared Dracula (Hauer) leads vampire
hunters Father Uffizi (Lee) and Luke (London) back to eastern Europe and
a country plagued by civil war. There they discover powerful local
warlords are assisting Dracula by capturing victims and delivering them
to feed the vampires residing in Dracula's castle! And to make matters
worse, Father Uffizi must face his own temptations as he struggles to
overcome the vampire virus within himself! With sizzling stars, a
riveting story and stunning special effects, this suspense-filled
thriller will satisfy anyone with a taste for terrifying entertainment!

My Boss My Hero - R3 Korea 2-Disc DTS SE £7.00

Cover: http://www.boomspeed.com/gpr79/bosscover.jpg

Excellent gangster/comedy/action/high school flick like they can only
make in Korea folks!

"Kye Doo-sik (Jung Jun-ho) has recently acquired the territory of a
rival gang whom he defeated. Promotion for him is imminent but there is
one thing holding him back. It would seem that many recent additions to
his gang have themselves high school diplomas and college educations,
something that Doo-Sik does not have himself. Whilst his boss (Kim
Sang-joong) is very pleased with his work, the ultimate humiliation
facing Doo-Sik forces him to make a decision. Doo-Sik must go back to
high school and graduate with a diploma, thus earning him a higher
position in his gang. However, Doo-Sik is about to learn that life at
school is much tougher than he thinks...

Doo-Sik, along With the help of his best men Kim Sang-do (Jung Woong-in)
and Dae Ka-ri (Jung Wun-taek) enrols at a private high school. His day
does not start off well as he finds himself being bullied and robbed and
even beaten by one of the teachers. He soon learns that the heads
running the school are corrupt, gladly taking parent's bribes to secure
their children a better education, the principal sexually harasses his
female employees and a tough local gang protect him. As Doo-Sik
befriends some students he finds that the stress of trying to achieve
results in order to graduate is taking its toll on several students, one
in particular Lee Yun-Ju (Oh Seung-eun) who even goes so far as to
prostitute herself to pay for her fees. Doo-Sik decides that enough is
enough, whilst trying to maintain his cover he sets out to make things
right. "

A Better Tomorrow Trilogy OOP DTS Boxset £23.00

Cover: http://www.boomspeed.com/gpr79/better_trio.jpg

The best releases of these John Woo classics on any region!

"A Better Tomorrow is the John Woo gangster classic that started it all,
a romantic, violent, swirlingly stylish melodrama about dueling
brothers--with a mesmerizing lead performance by Hong Kong's favorite
actor, Chow Yun-Fat. In repose, Chow's sleepy magnetism recalls the
glory days of Robert Mitchum, Steve McQueen, and Takakura Ken; when he's
stepping high, Chow has a unique, ebullient star presence, a man who
embraces life so unselfconsciously that he becomes vulnerable to all
kinds of suffering and heartache (he endures masochistic megadoses of
violence here). The sequence in which Chow's Mark avenges his betrayed
best friend---by blasting his way into, and then out of, a Chinese
restaurant, twin .45s blazing---is a swashbuckling standout. Woo's film
technique may have been more polished in later efforts, but Tomorrow has
a direct emotional power that is still unique. Kung fu star of the
1970s, Ti Lung is also terrific here as the 40ish established mobster,
relied upon by all, who allows conflicting loyalties toward Mark and
toward his younger brother, now a cop, to undermine the stability of his
position.

"I won't give you nothing, man; I give you ****," sneers charismatic
superstar Chow Yun Fat, in his role as a New York restaurateur who won't
knuckle under to the (Italian) mob in A Better Tomorrow II. Chow plays
the twin brother of the character he played in the original. The bond
between the natural siblings played by Ti Lung (as a reformed mobster)
and Leslie Cheung (as a hot shot cop) still resonate tellingly. As a
good-guy ex-thug driven batty by the slaying of his only daughter,
real-life Cinema City studio chief Dean Shek gets to play a garishly
extended "mad scene," foaming at the mouth, chewing on soup bones. A
later episode in which a dying man crawls to a phone booth to call his
wife (and newborn daughter) in the hospital must also be some kind of
lurid first in the soap sweepstakes. The final 15 minutes could be the
bloodiest single shoot-out sequence ever committed to celluloid. The
story line hasn't been shaped to any particular purpose here, but the
images have a golden Godfather-like glow, and this faintly
anachronistic, all-stops-out wish-fulfillment approach to moviemaking
still has a lot of power.

A Better Tomorrow III is prequel, set in Saigon during the fall, and the
weakest link in the trilogy, unacceptably restrained in both action and
emotion. Chow Yun-fat plays a younger version of Mark, his original
character, a hesitant young man digging for his roots in Vietnam, which
was also Tsui's birthplace, and we get to watch him assemble his totemic
trappings: the duster overcoat, the French shades, the twin .45s. The
surprise is that he gets most of them from a torchy dame played by Anita
Mui (the seductive singing ghost from Rouge), who's a more-than-worthy
high-noir love object. She can perforate miscreants with the best of
them. (John Woo wrote the original script, only to be supplanted as
director by his boss and supposed pal, Mr. Tsui; much of Woo's original
material ended up in his later magnum opus Bullet in the Head.) "
