Dario Argento DVD for review

by Mike Browne on September 16, 2008

in film, old stuff

Thanks to Patrick’s diligence at pestering film distributors we are beginning to get DVD copies of movies to review on the MovieSet blog. Today we got the brand new film from Dimension Extreme by iconic Italian film director Dario Argento, whom I’ve met, called Mother of Tears starring the director’s daughter Asia Argento.

Here’s the DVD’s cover:

Mother of Tears is the third in a trilogy of supernatural horror films by Argento. The first two, Suspira and Inferno, were cult classics.

Here’s the trailer:

Judging by the high production value evidenced in the trailer alone I’m thinking this may be another great film. I’m looking forward to viewing the whole thing.

Watch our blog for my review witha  surprise. Here’s a gigantic hint: We got two copies of the DVD and one is not going to be opened by us in the office. Contest details to follow on movieset.com/blog.

Apparently Pulse 2 is also on the way. Watch for a review of that after it arrives.

Watching House season one on DVD

People have been telling me I need to watch House so rather than start a few seasons in Carol bought me the season one DVD’s for my birthday. We started watching and on the second episode the DVD began to skip and freeze up. Upon inspection we disovered that the DVD was flawed internally (not scratched) and needed to be returned. After a few days of waiting to find out what happened to the lacrosse player with the shunt in his head we had our new DVD’s.
