Some of my horror favorites though the first one is only on DVD as of now are

theater dreamer · 10-19-2021, 05:15 PM

Just these for me.

45 Years is such an underappreciated gem, and after seeing it three times, I'm happy to own it. Charlotte Rampling is extraordinary. The subtlety of her body language, the slightest hint of profound disappointment, gnawing doubt, and even rage in her voice. Her facial expressions reading like an open book. She gives a veritable master class in acting. She's in total command of her instrument, much like the greats of the silent film era, who had to convey everything without the spoken word. Each time I watch her, I end up seeing something new in her performance.

Kaneto Shindo's Kuroneko is absolutely haunting. I couldn't stop thinking about it for two days after watching it.

Also, Jack Clayton's The The Innocents is fantastic. Deborah Kerr was a marvelous actress, and that's one of her best performances.

And crap, I forgot to buy it.

Those two are must owns, imho.

Kuroneko is a great film. I would also recommend Kwaidan but it is pretty long and has a few slow spots.

Memories of Murder, Midnight Cowboy, and Mona Lisa for me. Had to tread a little lightly this sale.

hoytereden · 10-19-2021, 05:40 PM

Just a couple this time around:

And a White Whale title that always eludes me on the B&N sales:

MifuneFan · 10-19-2021, 05:40 PM

No one mentioned Hausu yet.

The Great Owl · 10-19-2021, 05:42 PM

I got in and out quickly with...

The Incredible Shrinking Man
High Sierra
Onibaba

kvnbhovis · 10-19-2021, 05:49 PM

I predict High Sierra will be the first title to go out of stock.

I really need to watch Kwaidan. It’s been in my “to watch” pile for so long. I’m ashamed to admit I’ve yet to see it.

I ended up grabbing The Innocents from Amazon. They’re like the troll under the bridge in the “Three Billy Goats Gruff”. Whenever I want to fatten up my film collection a little more, they’re always lurking, looking to take my money.

I'm only 30 points from getting a $50 gift certificate on the Criterion site, but I'm going to hold tight until the next sale, after their 4K UHD titles have come down the pipes.

Self control? On this site? I’m not sure if I like this.

I didn't buy the Jacques Demy set.

It hurt.
