Tartan Video 2000 Maniacs [1964]
Available fully uncut for the first time in the UK, <I>Two Thousand Maniacs!</I> is the second of director HG Lewis' blood trilogy. Though the once-in-a-lifetime title makes a promise no film could keep--only about 30 maniacs show up--and the level of gore is a notch or so down from <I>Blood Feast</I>--only four deaths--this is perhaps the director's most watchable film. The <I>Brigadoon</I>-d erived plot nugget concerns a Deep South town (variously suggested to be in Georgia or Arkansas, but actually Florida) wiped out by Union raiders during the Civil War, which reappears once every 100 years to wreak blood vengeance. For the centennial celebrations, Pleasant Valley lures Yankee tourists off the road and subjects them to gruesome fairground games--a cannibal BBQ, a horse-race, a barrel roll and teetering rock. The ideas are nasty, and Lewis even attempts subtlety by keeping the quartering and the spiked barrel inside mostly off screen, but the creepiest touch is the aw-shucks good humour with which the ghostly Confederate maniacs--led by a mayor who is the spitting image of Sergeant Bilko's Colonel Hall--treat their horrible sport. It has the usual Lewis drawbacks--mostly inept staging, acting that veers between the wooden (Playmate Connie Mason) and the amateurishly hammy (one of the worst child actors in film history), clumsy editing, community theatre production values--but his fans wouldn't have it any other way and the hayseed music is great! <p> <B>On the DVD:</B> The full-screen image is as good as this ever will look, considering Lewis' primitive understanding of lighting cinematography, with rich scarlet blood, vividly ugly 1963 leisurewear and very few print imperfections. The features offer an imaginative Welcome to Pleasant Valley Centennial menu, with buttons like the target you have to hit to drop the teetering rock on the Yankee; lurid original trailer (Two thousand maniacs crazed for carnage started bathing a whole town in pulsing, human blood ... brutal, evil, ghastly beyond belief); filmographies for Lewis, Friedman and star William Kerwin (aka Thomas Wood); promotional art gallery; notes by aptly-monickered expert Billy Chainsaw, highlighting the connections with John Waters and <I>Brigadoon</I>; a teaser trailer for the Herschell Gordon Lewis Collection; a mass of trailers for other Tartan terror titles. The Lewis-Friedman commentary and mind-numbing outtakes reel available on the Region 1 DVD are sadly absent, but that release doesn't have this one's major bonus addition--the entire soundtrack album, with compositions by Lewis himself (including the immortal Yee-Hah, the South's Gonna Rise Again) and Flatt and Scruggs (of <I>Bonnie and Clyde</I> fame). --<I>Kim Newman</I>

Granada Ventures Ltd Stingray - Vol. 1 - Stingray Plant Of Doom Sea Of Oil Hostages Treasure Big Gun Golden Sea [1964]
Drums pound, the music bursts into life with a cry of Stingray!... Stingray! Who can resist? <I>Stingray</I> (1964) was the show Gerry Anderson made just before he really hit the big time with <I>Thunderbirds</I> ; (1965). He produced 39 episodes of the 21st century adventures of Troy Tempest, tall, dark and handsome (his voice based on James Garner's) captain of the titular submarine. Troy's mission: to protect the seas on behalf of WASP (World Aquanaut Security Patrol). With complex underwater model and puppet effects, this was ground-breaking television, especially as it was the first UK series to be made in colour, even though for years it was only seen in black and white. Special effects director Derek Meddings later graduated to the James Bond films, while Moneypenny herself (actress Lois Maxwell) voiced Atlanta Shore. Here, just as in the Bond films, she played second fiddle in our hero's affections, the mute Marina becoming Stingray's sex-goddess. The end credits even featured a song in her honour, Aqua Maria, which became an international hit. As for the bad guys, half-man, half-fish Titan and his Terror Fish wage a dastardly war against humanity and the peaceful underwater citizens of Pacifica. Four decades on, the models and underwater sequences still impress and <I>Stingray</I> remains eccentric cult family entertainment.<p> <B>On the DVD</B>: There are seven episodes on the first DVD volume, including the pilot episode, Stingray, in which a Titan Terror Fish sinks a WASP submarine, leading to Troy and sidekick Phones falling into the hands of the evil Titan. This action-packed beginning introduces all the major characters and gadgets, setting the scene for the adventures to come. Plant of Doom sees Titan outraged that Troy has rescued his beautiful slave Marina. After consulting an undersea god he hatches a revenge plot using a deadly air-consuming flower. In Sea of Oil Atlanta is kidnapped by an underwater race who plant a bomb on Stingray, while in Hostages of the Deep Marina is threatened with death by swordfish blade. --<I>Gary S Dalkin</I>

MGM (Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer) A Fistful Of Dollars [1964]
This is the movie that launched the spaghetti Western and catapulted Clint Eastwood to stardom. Before director Sergio Leone picked him out, Clint had played only a few bit parts in features plus his role as Rowdy Yates in the TV Western series <I>Rawhide</I>. Leone cast him for his stillness and physical presence, famously remarking that when Michelangelo was asked what he had seen in a particular block of marble, he said Moses, but that what he, Leone, saw in Eastwood was just that, a block of marble. Leone also claimed that it was he who gave the character his trademark cigar and poncho, though Eastwood has said he brought his own wardrobe to Italy. Whoever takes credit, <I>A Fistful of Dollars</I> (<I>Per un pugno di dollari</I> in Italian) was an extraordinary success when launched in Italy in 1964. Eastwood had to wait longer for it to be a hit in the USA. <p> The film was based on Kurosawa's 1961 samurai picture <I>Yojimbo</I>, but Leone had forgotten to clear the copyright. Eventually a deal was done, but <I>A Fistful of Dollars</I> was not released in the USA until 1967. It scored an equally resounding success, as did its sequels in the <I>Dollar</I> Trilogy, <I>For a Few Dollars More</I> and <I>The Good, the Bad and the Ugly</I>. The advertising campaign promoted Eastwood's character, laconic, amoral, dangerous, as The Man with No Name (though in the film he's clearly referred to as Joe), and audiences loved the film's refreshing new take on the Western genre. Gone are the pieties about making the streets safe for women and children (women are virtually absent from the Trilogy). Instead it's every man for himself. Striking too was a new emphasis on violence, with stylised, almost balletic gunfights and baroque touches such as Eastwood's armoured breastplate. The popularity of the <I>Dollars</I> films had a marked influence on the Hollywood Western, for example Sam Peckinpah's <I>The Wild Bunch</I>, but its most enduring legacy is Clint Eastwood himself, still in action at the age of 70. --<I>Edward Buscombe</I>

Paramount Home Entertainment (UK) Zulu [1964]
One of the last of the classic-era widescreen epics, <I>Zulu</I> was also one of the last war movies to celebrate the virtues of the famous British stiff upper lip. At Rorke's Drift in 1879 a handful of British soldiers, hopelessly outnumbered by 4,000 Zulu warriors, fought one of the most celebrated defensive actions in military history. <I>Zulu</I> tells the story on an epic scale, bringing to life the heroism, courage, loyalty and sacrifice of those desperate hours. This is truly cast-of-thousands filmmaking, with vast action wonderfully captured in widescreen Technirama. John Barry, who also scored <I>Goldfinger</I> in the same year, provides a telling musical accompaniment. <p> The superb cast includes Stanley Baker and Jack Hawkins, but <I>Zulu</I>'s final claim to fame is that it made an instant international superstar of a young actor whose name is Michael Caine. A belated sequel arrived in 1979 in <I>Zulu Dawn</I>, which despite even more spectacular action and a great cast died at the box-office. It is nevertheless well worth seeing. <p> <B>On the DVD:</B> <I>Zulu</I> on disc has excellent prologic stereo considering the age of the film, while the anamorphically enhanced 2.35:1 transfer is crystal-clear, boasting rich colours, strong contrast and detail and only occasional minor print flaws. The original American trailer, also presented anamorphically enhanced at 2.35:1, is a worthwhile addition. There is a very good new 45-minute making of (1.77:1 anamorphic, in stereo), curiously split into two parts. The heart of the programme consists of interviews with survivors from the film, focusing on Stanley Baker's widow. The only let down is lack of input from Michael Caine and composer John Barry. The commentary by film historian Sheldon Hall, author of a forthcoming book on the movie, and Second Unit Director Robert Porter is serious and packed with information. --<I>Gary S Dalkin</I>

Buena Vista The Beatles - A Hard Day's Night [1964]
<I>A Hard Day's Night</I> may have been the Beatles' first big-screen experience but, as they had become the biggest band in the world by the time of its production, the Moptops were able to ensure it was a bit different from the band-movie norm. We'd made it clear that we weren't interested in being stuck in one of those nobody-understands-our-music plots, John Lennon would later recall, The kind of thing where we'd just pop up a couple of times between the action, all smiles and clean shirts, to sing our latest record.<p> Instead the quartet recruited a young director named Richard Lester--who had previously worked with the Fab Four's beloved Goons--to make a movie that followed them as they enjoyed and endured the phenomenon that was Beatlemania. The film wrote itself right in front of our eyes, says Lester. We just took the dirty bits and cut them out. The result is a frenetic hour and a half inside the Beatles' personal space as they engage in all manner of surreal hijinks--more often than not involving Paul's grandfather (played by <I>Steptoe and Son</I>'s Wilfrid Brambell) while dodging the ever-present horde of screaming fans. Although the result now seems a little dated, there remains an almost heartbreakingly good-natured aura around the foursome's naïve performances, while few could argue about the quality of a soundtrack that includes Can't Buy Me Love, And I Love Her and A Hard Day's Night itself, to name but a few. Whether the film would have been quite so successful if Lester had followed McCartney's suggestion and called it Oh, What a Lovely Wart! will, sadly, never be known. --<I>Clark Collis</I>

Paramount Home Entertainment (UK) Roustabout [1964]
The Elvis formula was well in place by the time of 1964's <I>Roustabout</I>, a concoction of undistinguished songs (anyone remember Poison Ivy League?), pretty girls, tight pants, a colourful setting and a little bit of karate to prove that Elvis really had been studying his martial arts. With that understood, <I>Roustabout</I> is a better-than-average work-out for the King--not as peppy as <I>Viva Las Vegas</I>, but a good deal livelier than the sleepwalking <I>It Happened at the World's Fair</I>. Elvis plays a bad-boy singer roaming the highways on his Japanese motorcycle; laid up after an accident, he joins a carnival owned by the feisty Barbara Stanwyck. (This is not a circus, it's a carnival. There's a big difference.) The cast goes from high to low: both giant-sized future James Bond villain Richard Kiel and tiny Billy Barty are carny regulars, and Raquel Welch has a small role in the opening scene. Teri Garr is one of the carnival dancers behind Elvis. The legendary costume designer Edith Head puts Elvis in a series of snappy windbreakers, but thank goodness he's also in black leather a lot. As if that weren't enough to recommend it, the movie has a sequence involving Elvis riding a cycle inside the Wall of Death, a huge wooden cylinder with high walls. This bit actually inspired an entire Irish film in 1986, <I>Eat the Peach</I>, in which friends build a similar contraption after they watch <I>Roustabout</I> on tape. --<I>Robert Horton</I>

WARNER HOME VIDEO Carry On Spying [1964]
While the later chapters of the <I>Carry On</I> series have received fairly constant exposure, some earlier examples such as 1964's <I>Spying</I> remain relatively unseen. Given the brash production and ensemble playing of the more well-known films, this black and white version of the <I>Carry On</I> world seems oddly low-key in comparison. Four of the soon-to-be-regular cast are in attendance--Barbara Windsor, Kenneth Williams, Jim Dale, Charles Hawtrey--and there are many signs of a formula in development (the double entrendres, bad puns, Windsor's ill-fitting clothing). Of course, with its obsession with sex and bodily functions it's all very English and parts have dated horribly, not least the casual racism of some of the secondary characters, but fans of this most unique of genres will find much to tickle their fancy. And don't they look so young?<p><B>On the DVD:</B> Given the long history and colourful characters of the series, there must be scope for much behind the scenes and documentary footage, but this disc is totally bereft of any extras bar scene selection. There is also little to add to the original black and white film stock, although the soundtrack, chock full of humorous instrumentation, sounds pretty good. --<I>Phil Udell</I>

Universal Pictures Video Marnie [1964]
Both visually and psychologically, <I>Marnie</I> is crass in comparison with Hitchcock's peak achievement in <I>Vertigo</I>--al though it shares some of that film's characteristic obsessive themes. Sean Connery, fresh from <I>From Russia with Love</I>, is a Philadelphia playboy who begins to fall for Tippi Hedren's blonde ice goddess only when he realises that she's a professional thief (she's come to work in his upper-crust insurance office in order to embezzle mass quantities). His patient programme of investigation and surveillance has a creepy, voyeuristic quality that's pure Hitchcock, but all's lost when it emerges that the root of Marnie's problem is phobic sexual frigidity, induced by a childhood trauma. Luckily, Sean is up to the challenge, as it were. Not even DH Lawrence believed as fervently as Hitchcock in the curative properties of sexual release. --<I>David Chute</I>

Granada Ventures Ltd Stingray - Complete Series [1964]
Drums pound, building excitement; the music bursts into life with a cry of Stingray! Stingray! Who can resist? Especially when a dramatic voice announces, Anything can happen in the next half hour!. <I>Stingray</I> (1964) was the show Gerry Anderson made just before he really hit the big time with <I>Thunderbirds</I> ; (1965), producing 39 episodes of the 21st-century adventures of Troy Tempest--tall, dark and handsome (his voice was based on James Garner) captain of the titular submarine. His mission: to protect the seas on behalf of WASP (World Aquanaut Security Patrol). With complex underwater model and puppet effects, this was ground-breaking television, especially as it was the first UK series to be made in colour, though for years it was only seen in black and white. Special effects director Derek Meddings later graduated to the James Bond movies, while Moneypenny herself (actress Lois Maxwell) voiced Atlanta Shore. Here, just as in the Bond movies, she played second fiddle in our hero's affections, the mute Marina becoming Stingray's sex-goddess. The end-credits even featured a song in her honour, Aqua Maria, which became an international hit. As for the bad guys: half-man, half-fish Titan and his Terror Fish wage dastardly war against humanity and the peaceful underwater citizens of Pacifica. Four decades on the model and underwater sequences still impress, and surely much of the inspiration for the underwater city in <I>The Phantom Menace</I> came from locations in <I>Stingray</I>. Whether as bizarre 60s nostalgia, or winning a new generation of fans, <I>Stingray</I> remains eccentric cult family entertainment. --<I>Gary S Dalkin</I>

Paramount Home Entertainment (UK) Paris When It Sizzles [1964]
<I>Paris When It Sizzles</I> is an unusual screwball comedy to say the least. Whether it works is another matter, but the premise and humour are interesting enough to make it enjoyable. The basic problem with the film is its two stars: William Holden and Audrey Hepburn hardly sizzle with onscreen chemistry, and Hepburn's character, Miss Simpson, falls far too easily into the hands of Holden's drunken screen writer. However, the story is an interesting play on the typical Hollywood romance, with two plot lines running in parallel to each other. Holden's Richard Benson has only two days to finish a script for an enigmatic producer (Noel Coward). Hepburn's Miss Simpson is drafted in as the typist and as the script is dictated it manifests itself on the screen, allowing the two lead characters to play out any number of romantic stories. It's the cameo appearances in the imaginary world that really steal the show, with the blink-and-you'll-miss-it last screen appearance by Marlene Dietrich, as well as Tony Curtis having fun with his own screen persona. It's not one of Hepburn or Holden's best, but is worth a look purely for the interesting slant on the mechanical nature of Hollywood's romances. <p> <B>On the DVD</B> <I>Paris When It Sizzles</I> offers little of any note in regards to special features, with only an extended trailer (which seems to try and sell the film on the merits of the stars alone). The mono soundtrack is nothing special, though the print has cleaned up nicely, offering a 1.78:1 widescreen picture that brings the Technicolor to life. --<I>Nikki Disney</I>
