SIR HUGO BASKERVILLE: REMEMBERING DAVID OXLEY :
#tbt
Remembering DAVID OXLEY. ( November 7th 1920 - October 30th 1985 ) Was
there ever a more terrifying, evil, rip snorting, bag of fury than
Oxley's portrayal of Sir Hugo Baskerville in the 1959 Hammer films
production of 'The Hound of the Baskervilles' starring Peter Cushing and
Christopher Lee? I must be honest, I actually find him more frightening
than the hound!

HEADS UP FOR BRITS: Lots of you writing in the

GUIDO HENKEL'S TAKE ON BLUE UNDERGROUND'S 'SHOCK WAVES' BLU RAY
Here's
an informative, helpful and honest review from Guido Henkel of the Blue
Underground blu ray and dvd release of Peter Cushing's 'SHOCK WAVES',
due for release November 25, 2014. Please follow link at bottom of feature.
'Cool,
incredibly scary and very imaginative, the film is now presented with a
brand new high definition transfer that has been taken from the only
surviving elements. Shot on a minuscule budget
on 16mm, the transfer does exhibit some grain, of course, as a result
of the original source material. The amount of grain depends from shot
to shot. While some are almost free of it, others are truly riddled with
it, as difficult lighting conditions put their strain on the
technically limiting 16mm film stock. I am very glad, however, that Blue
Underground resisted the urge to digitally scrub the film and instead
opted to present the movie exactly the way it was originally produced,
grain and all. Not only does it keep the film’s integrity intact, but it
also plays on its artistic sensibilities because the grain gives “Shock
Waves” a certain gritty look that perfectly fits the movie, adding to
its qualities...'

ONE WEEK BEFORE RELEASE OF JAMES LUCENO TARKIN
For
all you Peter Cushing / Tarkin / Star Wars followers out there...there is
just one week to go before the release of James Luceno's book STAR WARS:
TARKIN! ....'Bestselling Star Wars veteran James Luceno gives Grand
Moff Tarkin the Star Wars: Darth Plagueis treatment, bringing a
legendary character from A New Hope to full, fascinating life.' ....'The
novel provides a nuanced, multi faceted anti hero that is captivating,
ominous, and calculating, in many ways, this is an original tale of the
Empire, as much as it is Tarkin. It may very well be one of my favorite
Star Wars novels..' Dan Z. Coffee..
