Movie Favorite

"Robert Mitchum stars in his signature role as the demonic preacher Harry Powell. The great actor Charles Laughton’s only work as a director is a horrifying fable about the loss of innocence and the darkness barely contained beneath the veneer of American pastoral life. It’s a one-of-a-kind movie. There’s nothing like it. Powerful, beautiful, darkly funny. Visually stunning. Both expressionistic and harshly realistic. It’s an American fever dream that I don’t think was equaled until David Lynch launched Blue Velvet into an unsuspecting Reagan-era public three decades later. The disc features Charles Laughton Directs “The Night of the Hunter,” a deconstruction of the film featuring outtakes and behind-the-scenes footage that enhances the experience of an already perfect film in ways unimaginable. Compiled by the UCLA Film and Television Archive, it’s a special feature as good as the film itself."

One of vin deisels finest! Who does love the actor in his younger days amongst all the nail bitting action! (Riddick)

Riddick is currently being transported when the ship he is flying on gets hit by a meteor shower and makes a crash landing on a strange planet that has three sun's, only every 22 years there is an eclipse. It may seem the people on the ship that survive the crash have enough to deal with, with Riddick being a danger to everyone and them being stranded they don't see what lies behead. Soon they learn about the darkness to come and it's a fight to survive with everyone on edge they need Riddick to help them survive the horrors that live in the dark. Amazing film definitely worth the watch, the budget for the creatures isn't all that but was brilliant back when it first came out.
