99 AND 44/100% DEAD DVD (1972) $14.99
run time: 98 mins. USA. Color.
directed by: John Frankenheimer
description: John Frankenheimer's bizarre, satirical gangster film is not for all tastes but has acquired a minor cult following. Elderly mobster Edmond O'Brien hires a hitman (Richard Harris) to eliminate his rival (Bradford Dillman) in a dystopic setting of not-quite reality. There are albino alligators, skillful chase scenes, and Chuck Connors as a one-handed psycho who can fit various deadly weapons on his stumpy arm. None of it makes much sense, and mainstream viewers may end up scratching their heads in bewilderment, but fans of more esoteric films should find it a lot of fun.

run time: 109 mins. USA. Color.
directed by: Paul Mazursky
description: This cinematic experiment is one of Paul Mazursky's more personal films. With a big tip-'o-the-hat to Fellini's 8 1/2 (to make sure no one misses the references to the film, Federico Fellini appears in a cameo), Alex in Wonderland centers on a young director (Donald Sutherland) who feels compelled to follow his recent box-office hit with another blockbuster. While mulling over this dilemma, the director's mind wanders to his past, his present, and probable future. One of the film's memorable sequences involves a restaging of the Vietnam War in downtown Hollywood. WATCH CLIP

directed by: Henry Jaglom
description: A Safe Place, writer/director Henry Jaglom's feature film debut, is a time-fractured, hallucinatory fantasy, featuring Tuesday Weld as a lonely and confused woman named, at times, Susan and at other times Noah, who comments that "Tomorrow is where the past is." Too delicately ethereal to cope with either the hussle and bustle of a 1970 New York City or her un-hip boyfriend, Fred (Philip Proctor), Susan/Noah escapes into another reality, presided over by The Magician (Orson Welles with a cheap Yiddish accent). As she flits back and forth between past and present, fantasy and reality, Susan encounters Mitch (Jack Nicholson), an old lover who might also be her brother, and Bari (Gwen Welles) who delivers a soliloquy concerning New York City mashers.

directed by: Ken Russell
description: Fashion model Twiggy plays Polly Browne, an aspiring musical comedy star, working as stage manager of a production of The Boy Friend. She is transformed into a star when she replaces leading lady Rita Monroe (Glenda Jackson), who twists her ankle seconds before the curtain goes up. Before the evening is over, Polly is scampering over outsized sets, and ducking around seemingly thousands of chorus girls and boys. Christopher Gable, who plays Polly's on-stage leading man, also choreographed the lavish musical numbers. Director Ken Russell (notorious for his onscreen excesses) fashioned a humongous parody of the Busby Berkeley film musicals of the 1930's and staged on a scale that made Berkeley seem stylistically modest.

BREWSTER MCCLOUD DVD (1970) $14.99

directed by: Robert Altman
description: Move into the Houston Astrodome and take off with Brewster McCloud on an unforgettable flight of comic fantasy! Sally Kellerman, Bud Cort, Shelley Duvall and Michael Murphy star in this zany fairy tale --- a wickedy irreverent, thoroughly delightful comedy from award-winning director Robert Altman (M*A*S*H, The Player). A ruthless killer is on the loose in Houston, and some of the city's richest and most illustrious citizens are among the victims. Is it the killer's bizarre trademark or merely a coincidence that each corpse is marked with bird droppings? The police are baffled, so a super-cool San Francisco detective (Murphy) is bought in to take over the case. Soon he's hot on the trail of Brewster McCloud (Cort), a strange young man who lives under the Astrodome. Written by Doran William Cannon, Brewster McCloud contains a wildly improbably plot, rich satirical detail and manic humor. In other words, it's one of the most entertaining films you'll ever see! CONTAINS THE ORIGINAL THEATRICAL TRAILER. WATCH TRAILER!

Notable for introducing future Saturday morning heroine Cameron (ISIS) and for her uninhibited provocative performance as a sexual carnivore.

Jonathan was once considered the greatest American tennis player and intends to guide Franklin to the high-road. Franklin does not transcend the interest he has in local Hollywood-type parties littered with has-beens, wannabes and think-they-ares. It is there that he meets Cynthia (Maud Adams), a pretty photographer who makes a living photographing people like French filmmaker Jean Renoir and taking production photos of commercials.

run time: 89 mins. USA. Color.
directed by: S. Lee Pogostin
description: The charms of mental illness and the superiority conferred by psychic wounds are celebrated almost as whimsically in Arthur Hiller's "The Crazy World of Julius Vrooder." Timothy Bottoms plays a Vietnam veteran who frolics all over his hospital, convinced that he's far saner than the doctors who pronounce him "psychiatrically impaired." The movie - which drowns its antiwar theme in a cataract of cuteness was produced by Hugh M. Hefner of Playboy, and contains one of the silliest wedding scenes we've ever seen.

Great cinematography, realistic acting, humor and an amazing set-piece ending. Mike (John Moulder-Brown) is a teen-aged London bathhouse attendant who forms a business alliance with a female attendant (Jane Asher). The object is to obtain better tips from their clients, but soon the impressionable Moulder-Brown falls in love with the older Asher. Brushed off by the girl in favor of a handsome swimming instructor, Moulder-Brown makes several halfhearted attempts at revenge. Motivated by lust with tragic results, Deep End observes how adolescent obsession can mushroom into disaster if one doesn't have the emotional equipment to cope. The director's stint working with Roman Polanski (he wrote KNIFE IN THE WATER) shows in this highly recommended rarity! WATCH CLIP

DIARY OF A MAD HOUSEWIFE DVD (1970) $14.99
run time: 94 mins. USA. Color.
directed by: Frank Perry
description: Superstardom was predicted for Carrie Snodgress on the basis of her spectacular film debut in Diary of a Mad Housewife. Snodgress plays the long-suffering wife of pushy, insensitive attorney Richard Benjamin. Unable to withstand being treated as a trophy (and a tarnished one at that), Snodgress has a brief affair with sexy Frank Langella. Alas, Langella, like virtually every other male character in the film, is just as selfish and self-involved as Benjamin. Even when she enters group therapy, Snodgress is disenchanted by the obtuseness and chauvinism of her male psychiatrist. Nominated for an Academy Award for her performance in Diary of a Mad Housewife, Carrie Snodgress dropped out of films shortly afterward to move in with rock star Neil Young - with whom she raised a child. She returned to cinema with a pivotal role in Brian de Palma's bloody thriller The Fury.

description: Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning play by Paul Zindel and directed by actor Paul Newman. Joanne Woodward portrays the eccentric young widow who is raising her two disparate daughters in an atmosphere of bitterness, hatred and over-protection that threatens their very growth and development.

The title of the movie comes from her anger at her daughter's science teacher for encouraging her to expose marigolds to gamma rays as a science project. This experiment becomes a metaphor for her own life, as she struggles to bloom in a household deadened by her mother's alcoholism and her sister's lethargy.

description: The straightlaced parents of a young boy who has, until now, shown no interest in the opposite sex, are surprised when he comes home with androgynous girl/boy from the West Indies. This is a comedy of manners, somewhat akin to "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner," but in place of a black man, we get a black transgender woman (or male-born androgyne; it is unclear). As such, it was and is way ahead of its time. From a play called "Girlfriend" by David Percival.

He leaves behind very few friends on his climb to the top, however, and he will need some.

MAG WHEELS DVD A.K.A. "SUMMER SCHOOL" (1978) $14.99
run time: 81 mins. USA. Color.
directed by: Bethel Buckalew
description: Mag Wheels was another late 70's entry into the beach teensploitation comedies that were so prominent then. Anita (Shelly Horner) is the new girl at school. When Steve (John McLauglin) gets one look at the voluptuous transfer, it sets his girlfriend Donna into a tailspin and she'll stop at nothing to make sure these two never unite. A staple on USA's Up All Night as Summer School, Mag Wheels is an oddity to say the least. It's got all of the elements exploitive comedy - fast vans with awesome carpeting, nekkid ladies, rape, revenge, high waist jeans... but what comes together is an unintentionally funny and tragic story of a girl who just wants to belong. It's also a great staple of 70s California culture with surfers, skaters and the like all whooping it up in the name of grooviness. WATCH CLIP
