A Perfect Murder (Blu-ray)

Recommended A remake of Alfred Hitchcock’s Dial M for Murder (1954) and the Frederick Knott play from which it was derived, A Perfect Murder (1998) cannily reconfigures its plot and characters for a much more cynical, modern day audience.

Bite the Bullet (Blu-ray)

Recommended Sure, its title might bring to mind some sort of brutal, nihilistic Spaghetti Western, but 1975’s Bite the Bullet is instead a character-driven adventure, one that’s set against the backdrop of an epic race at the [click on the thumbnail to enlarge] Read the entire review
