In the brilliant final installment in his DEAD OR ALIVE series, Takashi Miike crafts the story of a fearless cop who must save his son when an underworld consort of criminals and rebels accidently kidnap him. In a post-apocalyptic Yokohama, a dictator rules the land and, among other terrible rules, forbids procreation. A loose resistance forms among the city's criminal element and a group of rebels, but when they take Honda's (Riki Takeuchi) son, they must deal with his vengeance. The only force holding back Honda is Ryo (Sho Aikawa), an android who has his own plans. The finale to the trilogy perhaps is the most brilliant of the three - commenting on the nature of life through its use of violence, humor, and liberal literary and film allusions.DVD Features:Region [unknown]Keep CaseLetterboxed Widescreen - 1.85Additional Release Material: Original TrailerText/Photo Galleries: Trailer Gallery

In 1914, some patriotic Frenchmen, living in a small town on the west coast of Africa, find out about the war with Germany, declaring: I would have thought it would be with England. Immediately, the lazy sergeant organizes his little army of ill-trained natives, and marches on the neighboring German fort, accompanied by shopkeepers and their wives. To everyone's surprise, German fire power cuts down the advancing mob, leaving Hubert, a righteous young geologist in charge. Accompanied by his black mistress, Hubert bulldozes the troops into a semblance of order. What ensues is a subtly funny statement on war and power. This Academy Award Winner for Best Foreign Film is one of the greatest works in the diverse career of French filmmaker Jean-Jacques Annaud (THE BEAR/THE NAME OF THE ROSE).DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseAnamorphic Widescreen - 1.66Additional Release Material: Bonus Feature - 1.

Director Istvan Szabo, as he so masterfully does in FATHER and 25 FIREMAN'S STREET, structures LOVE FILM around a series of flashbacks that revel in and indulge the memories of Jansci (Andras Balint), a 27-year-old Hungarian living in Budapest. Jansci plans to go to France to visit Kata (Judit Halasz), a woman his own age who was his constant companion and friend in his childhood. LOVE FILM's main theme is the nature of this rare relationship--a boy and a girl who, prior to puberty, share an intimacy similar to adult lovers and are even denounced by their Communist Youth League for their special friendship. But when they become young adults, their attempt at a more romantic, sexual relationship proves to be more awkward.LOVE FILM is staged as a series of overlapping sequences--at one point, the young boy watches the man he will become ride by on his bicycle--and many scenes, such as the children ice-skating on a makeshift rink in a vacant lot, carry the feeling of lost innocence. Szabo also deals with the loss of political innocence when the Russian invasion puts down the government's liberal reforms, causing Kata to flee to France, where she becomes a fashion designer. When Jancsi goes to visit her, they try to begin a romance based on their childhood friendship and a recent spate of love letters. However, as the two find out, love is never easy....DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseLetterboxed - 1.66Audio: Mono - Hungarian Subtitles - English - OptionalInteractive Features: Scene Access Interactive Menus
