• Southern Comfort | DVD | (15/01/2001) from £15.99   |  Saving you £-6.00 (N/A%)   |  RRP £9.99

  Southern Comfort is more than merely Deliverance in the Louisiana Bayou. Walter Hill's taut little tale of weekend warrior National Guardsman on swamp exercises reverberates with echoes of Vietnam. Powers Booth brings a hard pragmatism to the "new guy" in the unit, a Texas transplant less than thrilled with his new unit. "They're just Louisiana versions of the same rednecks I served with in El Paso", he tells level-headed Keith Carradine. The barely functional unit of city boys and macho rednecks invade the environs of the local Cajun trappers and poachers, "borrowing" the locals' boats and sending bursts of blank rounds over their heads in a show of contempt. Before they know it the dysfunctional strangers in a strange land are on the losing end of guerrilla war. The swamp rats kill their commanding officer (Peter Coyote) and terrorise the bickering bunch as they flee blindly through the jungle without a map, a compass, or a leader to speak of. Hill directs with a clean simplicity, creating tension as much from the primal landscape and the Cajuns' unsettling reign of terror as from the dynamics of a platoon of battle virgins tearing itself apart from rage and fear. Ry Cooder's eerie and haunting score and the primal, claustrophobic landscape only intensifies the paranoia as the city boys splinter with infighting (sparked by a bullying Fred Ward), blunder through booby traps and ambushes, and finally turn just as savage as their pursuers in their drive to survive. --Sean Axmaker, Amazon.com

• Miami Blues | Blu Ray | (23/10/2023) from £14.99   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £N/A

  George Armitage (Grosse Pointe Blank) adapted celebrated noir author Charles Willefords novel Miami Blues for the screen with new star Alec Baldwin in the lead role as Frederick J. Frenger, Jr., a sociopathic criminal. Arriving in Miami fresh out of jail he commits one crime after another when he meets young hooker Susie (Jennifer Jason Leigh, Single White Female) who he starts to build a pseudo-married life with, including the home cooking and the white picket fence. As Frederick tries to juggle domesticity with his mounting crimes, dogged cop Hoke Moseley (Fred Ward, Tremors) threatens to put his freedom in jeopardy. Baldwin is brilliant as the unhinged criminal tearing through Miami while Armitage perfectly balances the humour and violence in this singular crime comedy that betrays the quirky influence of producer Jonathan Demme (Something Wild, Married to the Mob).

  All five films in the sci-fi horror franchise. In 'Tremors' (1990) handymen Val McKee (Kevin Bacon) and Earl Basset (Fred Ward) are preparing to leave Perfection, Nevada, when their departure is halted by strange rumblings beneath the earth. When seismology student Rhonda LeBeck (Finn Carter) then reveals that the tremors have been caused by giant underground monsters, the unlikely trio soon find themselves in a battle to survive. In 'Tremors 2 - Aftershocks' (1995) Earl and Burt Gummer (Michael Gross) reunite to combat the burrowing monsters once again. Teaming up with scientist Kate Reilly (Helen Shaver), the group attempt to track down and destroy the killer worms in the oil fields of Mexico. In 'Tremors 3 - Back to Perfection' (2001) Burt returns to his hometown of Perfection to face down a group of corrupt property developers. However, things soon go from bad to worse when a third mutated strain of monsters makes its presence felt. 'Tremors 4 - The Legend Begins' (2004) is the prequel to 'Tremors' (1990). When workers in the remote mining town of Rejection, Nevada, fall victim to an unseen predator, the mine's owner, Hiram Gummer (Gross), hires a mercenary to destroy the carnivorous creatures before they swallow his profits. Finally, in 'Tremors 5 - Bloodlines' (2015), hardened survivalist Burt returns as he hunts down a supposedly isolated subterranean monster in the South African wilderness. However, the hunters soon become the hunted when Burt and the rest of his crew, including wildlife reserve worker Travis Welker (Jamie Kennedy), discover what they're really up against...

• The Right Stuff | DVD | (21/09/1998) from £12.99   |  Saving you £1.00 (7.70%)   |  RRP £13.99

  Philip Kaufman's intimate epic about the Mercury astronauts (based on Tom Wolfe's book) was one of the most ambitious and spectacularly exciting movies of the 1980s. It surprised almost everybody by not becoming a smash hit. By all rights, the film should have been every bit the success that Apollo 13 would later become; The Right Stuff is not only just as thrilling, but it is also a bigger and better movie. Combining history (both established and revisionist), grand mythmaking (and myth puncturing), adventure, melodrama, behind-the-scenes dish, spectacular visuals, and a down-to-earth sense of humour, The Right Stuff chronicles NASA's efforts to put a man in orbit. Such an achievement would be the first step toward President Kennedy's goal of reaching the moon, and, perhaps most important of all, would win a crucial public relations/morale victory over the Soviets, who had delivered a stunning blow to American pride by launching Sputnik, the first satellite. The movie contrasts the daring feats of the unsung test pilots--one of whom, Chuck Yeager, embodied more than anyone else the skill and spirit of Wolfe's title--against the heavily publicised (and sanitised) accomplishments of the Mercury astronauts. Through no fault of their own, the spacemen became prisoners of the heroic images the government created for them in order to capture the public's imagination. The casting is inspired; the film features Sam Shepard as the legendary Yeager, Ed Harris as John Glenn, Dennis Quaid as "Gordo" Cooper, Scott Glenn as Alan Shepard, Fred Ward as Gus Grissom, Scott Wilson as Scott Crossfield, and Pamela Reed and Veronica Cartwright are superb in their thankless roles as astronauts' wives. --Jim Emerson
