Italian director Sergio Pastore made some fantastically inventive films in his lifetime, building his reputation as a master of the crime/thriller genre over a 20 year span before his unfortunate death in 1987 robbed the world of his talents. SETTE SCIALLI DI SETA GIALLA (which translates as THE CRIMES OF THE BLACK CAT) was made in 1972, and begins with a blind pianist discovering that his girlfriend has been murdered. A clue lies in a conversation that he overheard in a bar the night before the event, although a yellow silk scarf provides further intrigue. Pastore offers a few grand guignol-esque set pieces as his film draws to a powerful conclusion, while also teasing some splendid performances from his excellent cast.DVD Features:Region (unknown)Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33

For over three generations, El Chavo del 8 has charmed Spanish-speaking audiences the world over with its wildly zany appeal. A Mexican television landmark still on syndication to this very day, the series is a winning formula of slapstick comedy and social commentary that is reminiscent of The Little Rascals. El Chavo is an eight-year-old (played by a full-grown adult male) who practically lives inside a barrel in the courtyard of a community filled with loony but memorable characters. This second volume of THE BEST OF EL CHAVO DEL 8 compiles some of the series' best loved moments from its 30-year history, including Billetes de Loteria, Clases de Box, La Casita del Chavo, La Torta, La Pelea de Don Ramon, and Clases de Guitarra.DVD Features:Region 0Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33
