Having got Abby off e-bay on video I knew the DVD version would not let me down. Amazon didn't stock the film but I to went CINEFEAR.COM and picked it up for 20 Dollars (£17.00 inc p+p) This is Carol Speed's best performance out of all the Blaxploitation movies she did during the 70's even better than the other classic "The Mack". As well as being a funny movie (Abby kicking her husband right in the breadbasket during one scene!!) there are actually some scary moments such as the scene where Abby is helping prepare food with other women and the evil force within her take's over and she start's to cut her arm with a rather large blade while licking her lips demon like !!! I also love love William Marshall's performance in this movie, he was born to play the part of trying to free... More Info About This DVD Actor(s): William Marshall DVD Release Date: 01 January 2010

Phantom Planet is a generally-overlooked but thoroughly enjoyable slice of early-60s SF cheese. Not really good enough to be a "good movie," not really bad enough to achieve Trash status; but I could watch this one every six months without getting tired of it. Dean Fredericks in the lead makes a quite unappealing, unsympathetic 'hero,' lending a strange atmosphere to the movie right off the bat. Francis X. Bushman (the silent Ben Hur) and Anthony Dexter (fallen far from 1951's Valentino) lend kitsch appeal, and Coleen Gray and Dolores Faith, as the 'mute girl,' provide potential love interest for drippy Fredericks. If you watch this with the mindset of a 10-year-old there's lots of fun and clever ideas and effects: the shrinking thing, passable outer space/rocketship sequences, the...

Produced in 1981 and intended primarily for classroom viewing, this conventional staging of Othello strips away the adornments of traditional English accents to focus entirely on the power of Shakespeare's tragedy. Despite the disadvantage of a lackluster video transfer, flat overhead lighting, and sound recording that occasionally smothers dialogue with music, the play itself is faithfully preserved. William Marshall's stentorian tones give him a commanding presence as the doomed Moor Othello, whose jealousies are stirred and manipulated by Ron Moody's scheming Iago. But his mannered performance clashes with Moody (best known as Fagin in Oliver!), whose Iago lacks the villainous premeditation that the role demands. Jenny Agutter acquits herself nicely as Othello's...
