It's about time.......2007-06-18

Yes, that time has finally arrived, after over 2 decades, the original Twisted Sister Saturday Night concert originally broadcast on Mtv is finally gonna be released on dvd.

As a young teen being about 13-14 years old, I remember watching this concert on Mtv and I have never forgotten about it. I've seen it on ebay but did not want to vhs version, so I will be really glad when I get my paws on this dvd version that has been burned into my brain for the past 20+ years.

Some of you may think it sad, but it was TS that brought me into the world of music, what was called heavy metal at the time, then thrash, punk, country, americana and just all kinds of music in general, but to me Twisted Sister will always be one of the best and most exciting and influential bands in my life.

With a tawdry plot and a short list of suspects, Twisted gives armchair detectives an easy chance to figure out whodunit. Critics roasted this pulpy potboiler, in which Ashley Judd (attempting to repeat the thriller success she had with Double Jeopardy and High Crimes) plays a San Francisco homicide detective who is her own prime suspect in an ongoing serial murder case, in which all of the victims are men she recently slept with. These one-night stands, and a problem with alcoholic blackouts, make Judd's wine-drinking character the loose cannon on the case, and her partner (Andy Garcia) and police commissioner mentor (Samuel L. Jackson) have their own reasons for wanting the case to close. Apparently nobody bothered to point out numerous weaknesses in Sarah Thorp's B-movie screenplay, and with no apparent interest in the proceedings, director Philip Kaufman (The Right Stuff) allows Judd to look silly, Garcia to overact, and the whole movie to unfold in murky darkness and dimly lit rooms. Kaufman, Judd, and her costars are capable of better. --Jeff Shannon

Though not a masterpiece, a movie worth watching.......2007-05-20

Twisted brings to the screen the story of a young policewoman, recently promoted to inspector, who finds herself investigating the murders of her former lovers, making her...the prime suspect.
Ashley Judd, Andy Garcia, Samuel Jackson, and the rest of the cast carry out their performances very well.
The setting, the plot, the dialogues, and the music are all good.
In a nutshell, it's probably not a movie you would want to add to your collection, but it will provide for an evening's entertainment.

unti-twist.......2007-01-27

Samuel L. Jackson and Andy Garcia are very talented and good actors, but even they can't save this film from failure. The main line is boring and film is very predictable - don't see nothing "twisted" in it.

The beginning of this film was rather boring but seemed to get a bit more interesting right near the end where this film earns an extra star!

Only watch if you're a fan of detective films otherwise I wouldn't bother!!

Fue un regalo para mi esposa ya que me dijo que nunca se la habia alquilado y espero que le guste.

Suspense , thriller kind of movie..........2007-01-04

The key to this movie, was the interaction between the trio
Samuel Jackson, Ashley Judd and Andy Garcia, the latter whom
the viewer can't really figure out, as a bad guy, good guy
throughout the movie, until the suspense is resolved towards
the end of the movie, doing a fine job.

Avoiding to spoil this thriller, clearly SJ does a fine acting
job, as does AJ, who seems significantly out of character in
this movie, playing an alcoholic, attitude-filled, gutsy police
detective, with a number of other flaws, such as ease with
which she moves from lover to lover. Within her own limits, Judd
demonstrates a very good, but not exceptional, acting performance.

For those, like myself, who enjoy movies who take you to another
time and space, for 1 hour and a half, this work is an acceptable
rental choice, if only to see the main actors playing characters
that are out of the ordinary, taking risks in terms of how far
they can remain credible playing difficult characters.

The downside to this movie,is perhaps the energy level, considering
the actors seem in most cases looking tired or worn out ...perhaps the
filming and on-location shots took a long time to prepare. This seems
to be the case for most of those in the movie, except for a few, such
as Camryn Manheim's character.

Perhaps to redeem herself from this shocking character, Judd is later
interviewed in the extra section of the DVD, on-set filming another
picture, Norma Jean, in a more charismatic manner.

Do the Twisted.......2006-07-10

I think when many say they knew after 15 minutes who the killer was, they're actually saying they guessed who the killer was and just happened to be right.

Think about this for a moment: What was the motive? That was something I never figured out. The killer didn't have a motive. That's what threw me off. But I guess some would say a crazed killer doesn't need a motive. But come on! Even the deranged killer in 7even had a reason for killing. Even Norman Bates had a reason for killing.

It could be the reason was explained but I just missed it because the movie was so terrible. I don't know. I really don't want to have to watch the whole movie again to figure it out.

I know if you have a lot of high profile actors in secondary roles, one of them is the killer for sure; but you're thrown off by the fact that you have Andy Garcia, D.W. Moffett, and Sam L. Jackson. So all 3 are fair game.

point for the boys..........2007-01-09

Well, is very interesting to see a 80's band with the original members with a classical performance (make-up included). I think this concert was recorded in one of those Europeans festivals a couple years ago and the audience did a great job.

The boys did a terrific job too, all the classics included, interviews every couple songs about reunion and different stuff, good. Video quality excellent. Audio could be better from the source, I mean the dvd quality is great, but during the performance sometimes is not easy to understand what Dee is singing.

anything else is ok.

Mendoza Must've Sought Solace in Ho-Hos When the Band Broke Up.......2006-04-30

"It's the price we gotta play and all the games we gotta play, makes me wonder if it's worth it to carry on."

No words were ever so truthful than those coming from big mouth par ex Dee Snider.

Not since the Floyd reunion at Live 8 have there been so many uncomfortable people amassed on one stage that barely halfway wanted to be there.

The CD side is disposable, "Whoopee, more live Sister tracks of old stuff."

In the DVD documentary, there's this recurring theme of this being like a job, putting on the costume, going onstage and pretending like it's 20 years ago, and if you want to put on a uniform and clock in, go work at Wendy's, which some of the band may have been doing since the Sisters called it a day in 1987.

Although he could probably eat me for lunch, The Animal just seems like some angry fat guy with a ponytail, not convincing in the slightest that he's put the animosity with Snider behind him. Jay Jay is in it for the money, that's basically it. Eddie just seems like "Well, whatever." A.J. is just kind of "Hey, didn't I leave the group earlier than anyone?" Dee seems to be the only one really happy to be back playing with these guys.

I loved Twisted Sister's music and still do, and while the rhetoric of "doing it for the fans" is appreciative and the world was a way lesser place without them, they have to do it for themselves first and foremost and based on this documentary, I don't think they're doing that. Twisted Forever? Yes. Forever Twisted? Not so much so.

Terrible Quality Release...Manufacturing Defects........2006-03-27

As a big fan of this influential eighties metal band, it was with some apprehension that I plunked down the cash for this release after reading about the problems other purchasers were experiencing. I should have been forewarned.
I did not even bother checking the cd side as the dvd started to sputter and freeze about five minutes into the program before finally dying an agonizing death at the fourteen minute mark and freezing up completely.
Though the brief documentary portion I was able to watch did seem interesting, I must also state that what I saw of the concert portion suffers from the some of the most God-awful audio I have ever heard on an official release. Furthermore, the lighting during the first song was so poor that it was hard to tell what the heck was going on.
In brief, I would recommend this mess to only the most ardent TS fans and wish them good luck in finding a copy that actually works.

The CD Side didn't work???.......2005-12-08

I bought this dual disc and had a similer problem as a few others on this list mentioned? I returned mine 2 times and all 3 copies I had the CD side would not play in my home, car, computer, dvd, boom box, or clock radio cd player? Plus parts of the dvd side would mess up too? I contacted the company who put it out and had to e-mail them 3 times to get them to respond? Then they told me if I could show them proof of purchase they would send me a new one? I wrote them back and said that won't do anything because I had 3 in a row that were bad so whats a 4th one gonna do? I think the whole batch was defective to be honest with you so they should recall them all till they fix this problem? I notice some of the reviews they did not mention this problem? Maybe their's plays ok I wish someone would say so if it does? Take care and God bless :) And remember Twisted Forever :)

Twisted Sister-Live at Wacken Open Air-The Reunion
Eagle Rock Entertainment
www.eaglerockent.com/

Review by: Clifford Newsted

Twisted Sister has returned with their first DVD in their twenty plus year career. It's not just a DVD, in addition to the fourteen classic Twisted Sister tracks, there are several interviews with the band between songs and there's also the photo gallery, and the making of Still Hungry. The gem on this release is that this DVD is a dual disc and also has an audio side. There are four tracks from May 1980, one from London, December 1982 and rounding things out, six from their Wacken Open Air performance from August 2nd, 2003. The only downside is that this is all packaged in a CD jewel case. While there is plenty of Twisted Sister pictures, the liners are seriously lacking, there's no input from the band. I for one would have loved each member to write a sentence or two about their career or the reunion. This is a package that even a casual fan Twisted Sister will adore, it's all the hits, it's all the original members, it's Twisted Sister Live At Wacken-The Reunion. So, pick this up and prepare yourself for 105 minutes of classic Twisted Sister. Play It Loud Mutha!

Release Date: 2005-02-26

Description

Biblical theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer was executed by the Nazis just days before the Allies defeated Germany in World War II. This gripping documentary narrated by Ed Asner captures the life, times, and thought of Bonhoeffer. Using rare archival footage, documents, and visits to original locations, we get an intimate portrait of a man whose life and writings grow in their influence and speak powerfully to issues of our own day some 50 years later.

How does a man of peace come to assist violence in combating unrestrained evil? What do you do when deep-seated patriotism for your nation compels you to oppose your fatherland and its demonic leader? What course do you take when your love for the Gospel conflicts with your tragically compromised church? What is the responsibility of a follower of God when others are being persecuted and sent to prison camps and gas chambers?

As shown in this two-hour program, Bonhoeffer confronted these and other issues with a searching Biblical faith and personal courage in a way that speaks to every generation.

Hanged on a Twisted Cross.......2006-02-03

This is a DVD that my husband wanted for his birthday. The movie stops playing about 20 minutes from the end, so he can't see the end of the movie. He has tried different DVD players with no results. This is the first time I have purchased movies this way. Can I get it replaced with one that works? I purchased new rather than used to avoid this type of problem.

A informative and engaging documentary on the life, times, and thought of this man who was martyred for his beliefs.......2005-12-13

Biblical Theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer was executed by the Nazis just days before the Allies defeated Germany in World War II. "Hanged On A Twisted Cross" is a informative and engaging documentary on the life, times, and thought of this man who was martyred for his beliefs. Drawing upon archival footage, historical documents, and visits to original locations, "Hanged Upon A Twisted Cross" provides an intimate and insightful portrait of a man whose life and writings grew (and continue to grow) in their theological influence within the Christian community, and still powerfully speak to contemporary issues a half century after Bonhoeffer's death. Viewers will benefit from Bonhoeffer's views on how men of peace come to employ violence when combating unrestrained evil. What is to be done when deep-seated patriotism and their religion-based ethics compels Christians to oppose their fatherland and its demonic leader. The DVD format is thoroughly "user friendly". With a total running time of two hours, "Hanged On A Twisted Cross" is strongly recommended viewing and a welcome contribution to personal, seminary, and academic Christian Studies collections.

A powerful and captivating "sermon".......2005-09-24

The secondary definition of the word "sermon" according to Merriam-Webster is "a speech on conduct or duty."

This 120 min. 29 little chapters documentary has the feel of a "sermon" and history lesson all wrapped in one.

The movie starts with the following prologue/opening credits: "dedicated to Him Who made this film possible." Not only this but also the sound of a classic church hymnal as background music sets the tone for a Christian religious movie. The narration that follows, is by no means boring or soporific, as the music and voice and images presented are very engaging and intellectually stimulating.

This documentary focuses solely on "The Life, Convictions and Martyrdom of" a man by the name Dietrich Bonhoeffer at the orders of no other than Adolf Hitler and his henchmen. Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a pastor, theologian, university professor, anti-Nazi conspirator, and martyr who detected early on the evils of a new monster rising amidst his germanic countrymen (Adolf Hitler as Fuehrer, racism as means of national liberation, the deification of state authority, the corruption of the state churches) and amidst Christendom before the break of WWII in September 1939. His theology and actions also saved the lives of some Jews he personally helped escape to Switzerland.

The presentation is rich in quotes from his writings, church sermons, and letters he wrote. One gets the feeling of familiarity with his books ("Life Together: The Classic Exploration of Faith in Community," "Cost of Discipleship / Nachfolge," "Letters and Papers from Prison") after viewing this film. Also quite a bit of time is spent explaining the geopolitical and social situation of Germany between the end of WWI and capitulation of German army in 1945 and during Dietrich's time abroad in Barcelona/Spain, American, and England.

This Christian, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, had a living theology and a theology that was alive. And his life and writings are as relevant to our post-modern lives as they were to the turbulent 30s and murderous 40s.

As a companion (especially for the un-churched or non-Christians) I would also recommend the 2003 First Run Features production of "Bonhoeffer - Pastor, Pacifist, Nazi Resister" also found on Amazon DVD.

Because His "grace" is "costly!" (to use Bonhoeffer's terminology)

Unabashed, unredeemed, and most certainly unwholesome, Unprotected is another perverse romp through the animated wastelands of Spike and Mike. The festivities begin with a round of "No-Neck Joe" 'toons, featuring the stubby little hero in such everyday dilemmas as watching a tennis match (hard to do when you can't turn your head to follow the ball). "Meet the Beaters" is a sick sitcom taking family dysfunctionality to a bloody extreme. "Coco the Junkie Pimp" features clown marionettes who speak like monstrous street pimps, while "Stick Girl's Guide to Sex" is, let's say, an educational film about how to behave when a condom-less male member arrives unexpectedly at one's front door. The best thing on this disc, however, is not so much rude as it is clever: a terrific parody of the old Speed Racer series, mocking the show's early anime style and crazy cadences. --Tom Keogh

The tracks on 1 - 18 were correctly listed, but track 19 was WRONG... it is NOT Devil Went Down to Georgia.... fortunately I did return it and recieve credit, but it was meant to be a gift which I ended up not getting to someone on time

Sick humor...without the humor.......2005-04-19

I like sick jokes and cartoons as much as the next guy. Why else would I buy a DVD like this? Unfortunately, the toons in this collection have no wit or point to them at all.
Example:"Teach Me"- Cartoon frogs mate in unusual positions, one frog kills the other with a razor and a knife, surviving frog continues to mate with the dead frog, then he pleasures himself while staring at the sun and his eyes burst into flames, The End.
I reiterate, I'm the kind of guy who considers American Psycho a comedy. These animations are not funny or insightful at all, just unpleasant to watch.

Hi I have been a big fan of animation my whole life.I went to College very close to Cal Arts and so I knew many animators. While this DVD does contain many great films you should also check out this guys site http://www.nickgibbons.com. This is a friend of mine who just released his animation DVD. It is very funny, but he has no way of getting the word out. Check out his site and trust me, it's worth the price. He has a short on this Spike and Mike DVD, but he told me he doesn't see a dime anything they sell. Check out his site and please help support independent film making.

Great B horror flick.......2007-05-07

I enjoyed this movie just for the story alone.

Spoiler:
I liked the idea of the adopted child not knowing that there was a twin sister and the twin seeking revenge on the other.

The acting was great in this one as well as story. For those that appreciate the female nudity, there is plenty of it. To me, this was a well put together B horror flick and is highly recommended to anyone that loves B horror flicks.

Too Sexy!!.......2006-10-14

If you like movies about sweet,sexy, totally insane females, then "Twisted Sisters" is definitely for you. The movie is about two sisters, Jennifer and Nora, who live completely opposite lifestyles. Jennifer has the marriage, career and stability; Nora, well, not so much.

Jennifer was, unknowingly, an adoptee. what Jennifer doesn't know is that she has a twin sister. This twin sister has found her and is out for revenge. Nora blames Jennifer for the hardships that she has encountered and now is her time to get even!! She starts to play out the role of Jennifer and begins to committ heinous crimes that Jennifer gets pinned for.

The movie has a surprise ending that I am not going to spoil here, but just know, if you like an erotic,chilling thriller, "Twisted Sisters" is the one for you. A really good horror/thriller.

Description

Oscar Nominee William Hickey in one of his last screen performances stars in Seth Michael Donsky's "Twisted," a contemporary riff on Charles Dickens' classic "Oliver Twist" re-imagined in a New York city subculture brimming with male hustlers, homeless denizens, drug addicts and drag queens.
"A stylized, operatic fable of innocence and corruption, its world and that of Dickens' is one and the same." - Kevin Thomas, The Los Angeles Times
Written and Directed by Seth Michael Donsky

"Twisted"

Recognize Oliver?

Amos Lassen and Cinema Pride

"Oliver Twist" has taken on yet another update with the release of "Twisted". This time the scene of the action is the gay underground in New York City. However, any resemblance between this movie and the novel by Charles Dickens is very hard to fid. Even the names of the characters have been changed. Oliver is now Lee, a young man who must take care of himself by living on the streets. The Artful Dodger is now Fine Art, a hard hustler with bleached blonde hair and who will do anything for a dollar. Fagin is now Andre, a momma's boy and Bill Sykes and Nancy are now a couple who are into S & M and Nancy, who is now Angel, is Lee's protector.
The script is a mess. The director somehow lost his vision and what we have is a very gritty movie that does have some very good acting. In an attempt to make this into an art film, there are many fancy images, flashbacks and very strange juxtapositions. Instead of advancing the story, thy hinder any kind of plot delineation and the screenplay becomes an odd retelling of the original with very strange results. There is not anything good to say about the editing or the photography or the lighting. There are times when I had to strain my eyes to make out what was happening on the screen.
The character that shows the most promise is the drag queen. I am still trying to figure out what the tone and point of view of the film are. Yet the guys are eye candy but the film becomes boring very quickly. This is too bad because there is a lot of promise here. With a different director and a better screenplay, this could have been a wonderful film.

Merely Average.......2006-08-04
I consider the movie to be average; it did not appear to be a particularly clever take on the original tale - and the acting didn't particularly engage me.
Ehhh. .......2006-07-14
I wanted to like this movie so much more than I actually did. Unfortately it was pretty much a mess from beginning to end.

A great performance from Anthony Crivello though.
A New Twist for Oliver Twist.......2001-11-09
What really makes this low-budget, indi film are the magnificent performances of this highly talented ensemble cast. Seth Michael Donsky, who wrote and directed it, had an excellent idea: set Charles Dickens' classic "Oliver Twist" in contemporary New York City. God knows, not much has changed since Dickens wrote his socially critical study of a young orphan boy, caught in the grips of an unfair society. With the low-budget that Donsky obviously had, he makes a valiant attempt at creating a visually dark and atmospheric montage of the underbelly of modern urban society. He doesn't always succeed, and the film is at points muddled, but the ultimate effect is strong.
The Twist: "Oliver", or as he's called here, Lee, has run away from an abusive foster home and fines comfort and shelter from the elderly street performer, Can Man (beautifully played by Ray Aranha). Can Man teaches him about dreams being the basis of hope, and how you must keep your dreams safe. After Can Man is brutally murdered by a gang of thugs, Lee is comforted and brought "home" by Fine Art - a cute take off on "The Artful Dodger". Fine Art (Jean Loup Wolfman gives an eerie performance) is a young call-boy living in Andre's all-male brothel. The elderly Andre (no less than William Hickey) is the story's Euro-trash version of "Fagan", who is reliant on Eddie (akin to "Bill Sykes") for the house's supply of drugs. Eddie (a scary performance by Anthony Crivello) has a fairly large revere in the city under his control. He pimps his boys and runs his deals, and no one gets in his way and lives to tell about it. Angel (a beautiful and sensitive performance by David Norona) is Eddie's "Nancy". All Angel wants out of life is to make Eddie happy, and become a serious musician. The first is impossible and the later doesn't suit Eddie.
Angel meets Lee at Andre's and take an instant liking to the child. He starts meeting Lee regularly to give him piano lessons. Andre of course, has a different career plan in mind for Lee and sends him out with Fine Art to learn the delicate art of hustling. Unfortunately, they hustle an undercover cop, who snaps Lee and turns him over to the juvenal authorities. Eddie and Andre fear what Lee might say, and strong-arm Angel into "kidnapping" him from the police.
In the end, Angel - along with his best friend, the drag queen, Shiniqua (Billy Porter is worth the price of the video), make a daring attempt at saving Lee's life while risking their own.
Independent movie-making almost at its best!
Great Independent Film.......2001-08-19
A valiant attempt to bring to life the epic story of Oliver (Academy Award Winning Masterpiece) and transform it into modern day society and culture. It's quite the twist from the original musical version. From the attractive gay brothel boys run by Andre (played by William Hickey), to the hilarious protective drag queen, what more can you ask for in a story! Great performances by Billy Porter (well known for his work on stage) as well as Anthony Crivello (which I last saw on Broadway in "Kiss of the Spider Woman w/ Chita Rivera), and of coursre William Hickey (which I loved in National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation) Highly recommend! A must see independent film

the twisted tales of felix the cat.......2007-04-01
very enjoyable cartoon. one of my favorites. a must have for my collection.
Disappointing DVD package.......2007-01-10
If searches on the web are correct, this DVD is the only choice for us fans of this Saturday morning cartoon show. The original series contains thirty-some episodes, but this package only has eleven or so cartoons, for a total playing time of 90 minutes. The DVD has no further extras.
Awesome stuff, but not the classic........2006-10-19
If you are looking for the classic cartoon (or something like it), look elsewhere.

However, if you want a modern interpretation of the classic cartoon along with an incredible soundtrack done by an eclectic multipiece band, then this DVD is for you.

Excellent writing, strong humor, and definitely twisted (without being offensive). While generally safe for the younger set, adult cartoon fans will enjoy this, too. Great party backdrop.
we need more Twisted Tales!.......2006-07-06
I didn't know what to expect from this newer take on Felix, but I was very pleasantly surprised by how much fun it is. It's different and very Twisted (in a good way) yet still Felix. Twisted Tales is a fantastic show. I wish the rest of the episodes were available.
poor imitation.......2006-03-15
I grew up watching felix the cat and his magic bag but this particular new felix is unimpressive. Nothing spontaneous and it's flavorless. The old black and white version was way funnier and very original. This new Felix lacks any thrill, it's dull and the music is so "over-xeroxed". The voice-overs are lifeless, it felt too read from the script. The old silent films have more to say. Twisted Tales of Felix is a wasted effort.
