Rachel and the Stranger debuts on Blu-ray courtesy of the Warner Archive Collection starring Loretta Young, Robert Mitchum and William Holden.
This is another great release from Shout Factory and although some of the films are far from perfect and even taking into consideration that I’m generally not always the biggest fan of the supernatural-horror genre, this is still worth picking up for any completists out there.
I actually enjoyed Damien: Omen II ever so slightly more than the first film, but it’s not without its problems, that being some of the editing and pacing, though Jonathan Scott-Taylor actually wasn’t bad as Damien.
Satan Never Sleeps is an odd little history-drama especially with some of the humor inserted, but the story is fairly compelling and the performance by William Holden was, as always, wonderfully charismatic.
Hollywood’s Greatest Screen Legends set might be cool in theory but these are episodes of something called “Hollywood Remembers” from 2000 and these were not professionally produced though you can at least see the passion as I doubt this was some money ploy.
Born Yesterday is a wonderful drama-comedy with a great performance from Judy Holliday who was well deserving of her Oscar win. The Blu-ray released by Twilight Time offers up quite impressive video and audio transfers though on the features front, is a letdown with only a couple of trailers, which is a shame that such a classic couldn’t get a commentary track.
