Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone – Original Motion Picture Soundtrack $10.93 You needn’t see the film of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone to appreciate the wonder, magic, and fearful chills of J.K. Rowling’s phenomenal bestseller in John Williams’s outstanding score. Williams typically avoids the source material for the films he scores, but he reportedly derived great pleasure and inspiration from Rowling’s first Harry Potter adventure, and created a perfect motif (fu…

Michael Flatley – Lord of the Dance $6.90 Billed as an updating and retelling of Irish folk legend, Lord of the Dance is less Erin Go Bragh than Hooray for Hollywood. Michael Flatley, late of Riverdance, gives us the old razzle-dazzle, fashioning a Celtic-influenced spectacular that wanders far away from its Riverdance roots. The light-show presentation is closer kin to another contemporary Irish musical group, U2. Flatley himself has g…

Halloween (DVD) $16.55 Perhaps the most influential and successful independent film ever made, HALLOWEEN is the movie that put director John Carpenter on the map as a viable filmmaker. An exercise in simple, pure horror, HALLOWEEN takes us into the world of a mad killer, Michael Myers, who at a very young age stabbed his older sister to death. Locked away for many years in a mental hospital Michael escapes one night and returns to his hometown to continue his killing spree. Jamie Lee Curtis, in her first role, plays the resourceful babysitter who is chased by the killer on Halloween night. Produced for very little money and a tight shooting schedule, HALLOWEEN was a stunning success when it was released. Written by John Carpenter and his longtime producer Debra Hill, the film set their careers on fire, with both of them working together many times over the next 25 years. The film also made a star out of Jamie Lee Curtis and turned the slasher movie into a viable, successful genre. HALLOWEEN has been copied, parodied and even turned into a franchise of its own, but the original is still considered the best of the bunch. HALLOWEEN was John Carpenter`s first foray into horror, and remains the standard to which all other modern horror films are measured.

Halloween Theatrical Version (SE/DVD) $11.51 The early 2000s have seen a string of big-budget remakes of classic horror films. In addition to THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE and THE HILLS HAVE EYES, John Carpenter?s benchmark slasher flick HALLOWEEN has been given a new-millennial overhaul. At the helm of the project sits rocker Rob Zombie, whose previous films, HOUSE OF 1,000 CORPSES and THE DEVIL?S REJECTS, brought a fan`s touch and an auteur?s vision to the director`s chair. While Zombie?s HALLOWEEN is faithful to Carpenter?s vision, there are some obvious changes, the most pronounced of these being the substantial focus on Michael Myers`s childhood. The film posits Michael (played by a creepily vacant Daeg Faerch) as a troubled child made all the worse by a horrible home life–wonderfully illustrated via William Forsythe?s performance as Deborah Myers?s boyfriend–and constant abuse at school. Zombie paints Michael?s pain with palpable grit and sleaze, but he isn?t out to put our culture on the couch–he simply wants to show Michael killing his family. With the exception of Michael?s therapy sessions while incarcerated, the film, post-massacre, stays loyal to the original. Zombie?s film is clearly the work of a filmmaker who knows and loves the genre. The director`s signature is stamped all over HALLOWEEN (most notably in the use of grainy home movie footage and a smokin? classic rock soundtrack), although remnants of Carpenter?s brilliant original still remain. When it comes to remakes, it?s hard to ask for much more.

Halloween Night $32.94 This 2006 horror movie tells the story of a high school student`s Halloween party that goes terribly awry when a psychopath escapes from the local mental hospital and turns up at the party (which is in the same house as the psycho`s childhood home). Suspense, surprises, and terrifying chills result in this film based on true events.
