Description
During WWII, a human heart taken from a certain lab in Europe (Dr. Frankenstein's) is kept in a Japanese lab. When it gets exposed to the radiation of the bombing of Hiroshima, the heart grows in size, mutates and sprouts appendages, and eventually grows into a complete body and escapes. Later, a feral boy with a certain physical deformity (a large head with a flat top) is captured by scientists who refer to the boy as Frankenstein. The creature grows to the height of 20 feet, escapes again, fights police and army, and is practically indestructible. Later, a reptilian monster goes on a rampage. Eventually the Frankenstein creature and the reptile face off in a terrible battle.
Customer Reviews:
NICE TO SEE THIS ON DVD! KEEP THEM COMING!.......2007-06-28
I must admit that I liked these ToHo films as a kid,but they are mostly for laughs now.I guess a little for nostalgia too. These Japanese Monster movies are just hysterical! I had not seen this one for many years and I was doubled over with laughter watching it! It is great that they released this film and I would have given it 5 stars,but I remember some different scenes as a kid that ended up in the deleted scenes section of this release. Still all and all a great buy with 3 versions of the film and lots of extra goodies. I would love to see "War Of The Gargantuas", "The Green Slime" and " Yog Monster from Space" released!
Media Blasters does it again.......2007-06-28
Another terrific release from this company. I'm so glad that original Japanese features are finally getting what they deserve. Subtitles too.
Great menus and extras as well.
You're kidding me right...?.......2007-06-22
Yeah I saw this movie when I was about five or seven years old. I'm sure I liked it at the time, but I do not now. "Frankenstein" looks like a John Ratzenber look alike in bad make-up, The monster design for Baragon was better (why did it have to be wasted in this movie). I have never seen the alternate ending with the giant octopus, but it sounds stupid (even for a Toho Monster Movie). In the end, Tokyo Shock may as well be called Tokyo S&^&%.
frankenstein movie.......2007-06-16
i just want to mention that this movie is one of the best that toho productions has ever made as far as science fiction and i would reccomend it to anyone
Going to be Tokyo Shock's best release........2007-06-06
I've been waiting for this movie to come out for quite some time. This movie and War of the Gargantuas. You gotta love the beautiful Ms. Kumi Mizuno. Beside her, the movie is good, one of Toho's best. Add that with the features this DVD is packing. Both Japanese and American releases along with deleted scenes and commentary. A must have for all Toho and movie monster fans. This year has been a blessing for Toho fans with the rereleases of their movies on DVD in widescreen modes and with special features. Grab your friends and a six pack of beer and watch all these rereleased DVDs.

This moving, absorbing documentary is about the making of singer-songwriter Warren Zevon's final CD, the much-admired, star-studded The Wind. But more than that, it's about the final year of Zevon's life, and the way he approached what he called his "imminent demise" (which came in September '03). Zevon surely didn't plan on dying of lung cancer (although given his wry, sly, subversive sense of humor, he probably saw it as a good career move). But when doctors gave him the word, he became driven by an intense desire, and then urgency, to finish the music and leave a lasting farewell before his final goodbye; and he did, with the help of Bruce Springsteen, members of the Eagles, Ry Cooder, and others. Zevon is without self-pity; he knows what's coming, he's dealing with it, and in the process, an artist who'd always been preoccupied with death in his songs wrote some of his best when faced with his own mortality. Add to that a generous helping of bonus material (videos of two songs from The Wind, with Springsteen on "Disorder in the House"; interviews, home movies, excerpts from the sessions), and you've gotta figure Zevon himself would be pleased. --Sam Graham
Customer Reviews:
Good-Bye My Friend.......2007-05-12
A heart-felt tribute to a man so far ahead of his peers it's scary. His kind come among us far too seldomly. This planet is better becaused he crossed our path. It hurts to watch it.
A Nice Send-Off for Warren.......2007-01-03
This is well worth watching for any Zevon fan. I wish there was more of the appearance on Letterman however. Anyway, I found it interesting, funny and sad.
A bittersweet look at Warren Zevon's last days..........2006-08-27
You don't have to be a big fan of Warren Zevon - although I am - to enjoy this poignant look at his final days, as he records his brilliant final album. His visit from Bruce Springsteen, and to David Letterman's "Late Show," are particularly moving.
Good Times.......2005-03-10
The late Warren Zevon was the Grim Reaper's personal poet laureate and court jester throughout his long career. Hard to believe that only one of these songs (as far as I know) was written after he learned of his diagnosis. Son Jordan and longtime producer/cowriter/bassist Jorge Calderon assembled many of Zevon's closest collaborators, sidemen, cronies and admirers for a romp through both the sardonic, gallows-humor pieces he was famous for, but also the vulnerable, emotionally raw ballads he was equally adept at writing and delivering.
Zevon liked singing actors for their ability to deliver the emotional content of a song, so he'd be pleased by Sandler's surprisingly muscular
Beautiful.......2005-01-16
VH1 (Inside) Out is great.
Every Warren Zevon fan, and even if you are not a fan, will love it.

Dramatic personal stories showcase the stunning scientific advances that are transforming the field of cardiology, and the effect these changes will have on people stricken with the disease.
Customer Reviews:
America's Top Illness.......2007-05-16
The documentary states that people are so worried about breast cancer, AIDS, and lung cancer that they forget that heart disease is the number one killer of Americans. I fall into the group they are describing. Individuals with heart problems and their family members may already know what this documentary describes, but for me it was quite informative.
I had no idea that heart disease was like diabetes, you can keep it under control, but you can't cure it. It also is not inevitable. The work said the Chinese due to their diet and their manual labor don't have a crisis like this country has. Further, the documentary says before cars, washing machines, video games, and all the other advances that make Americans sedentary, there wasn't a heart disease crisis.
Though the researchers interviewed were mostly white males, the work tried to have diverse interviewees among patients and everyday doctors. The documentary shows computer models of heart malfunctions that are visually pleasing, rather than cheesy or second-rate.
I didn't necessarily leave the documentary knowing, "If you want to avoid heart disease, do the following ten things!" Still, I thought this work was informative and viewer-friendly.

Description
Beyond the Song is the quintessential tribute to an innovative performer whose tragically brief life was often stranger than fiction. With songs like Splish Splash, Beyond The Sea and the classic Mack The Knife under his belt by age 23, Bobby Darin soon found himself confronted by simply everything he had ever wanted; but it wasn't nearly enough. He died on December 20, 1973 from heart trouble. Featured in the show are live performance clips including: Mack the Knife, Splish Splash, Dream Lover, Beyond The Sea, As Long as I'm Singing, If I Were a Carpenter, That Funny Feeling, Higher and Higher, Simple Song of Freedom and For Once in My Life. This engaging program traces Darin's career from his first television appearance in 1956 to his last in 1973. Along the way, interviews with family and friends help to illustrate the deep impact that Bobby had on those fortunate enough to know him. Bobby Darin left a rich legacy of music and memories. He was an entertainer of unparalleled ability whose real impact lives on, long Beyond the Song.
Customer Reviews:
I just loved it!.......2007-07-03
I am buying this because I saw it on NetFlix and really enjoyed it. It's got to be the best summary of Bobby Darin's life and music out there.
Fan in Colorado
An Extraordinary Man........2006-07-06
Beyond the Song may only run for about an hour, but in that hour you get a very good look at the life of Bobby Darin. I personally loved the movie. I loved the many live performances that it features. Live performances of Mack the Knife, Splish Splash, Beyond the Sea, As long as I'm Singing and many more.
I learned a few things that I never knew about Bobby's life and i've gained more respect for his talent, as long as his character. One thing that I never knew that touched my heart was that Bobby Darin spent a night sleeping next to the casket of his late friend Bobby Kennedy, vowing that he would not leave the casket until it was buried. Darin was a very compassionate man and should not have died at the age of only 37.
Probably the most touching sequence for myself was the "Beyond the Sea Reprise" and the scene before the credits where you see various pictures of Bobby throughout the course of his life, all while you hear him singing Beyond the Sea in the back round. The final wave as he is singing "so long sailing" touched my heart. I highly recommend this to anyone, long time Bobby Darin fan or someone just beginning to discover the talent of Darin.
Great DVD on the Life of a Brilliant Talent, Bobby Darin.......2006-04-03
This is a great introductory DVD on Bobby Darin, one of the greatest performers in American entertainment history. Rare personal film clips and numerous clips from TV shows from the late 1950s to the early 1970s show Darin at his cabaret-performing best: clowning, doing incredible impersonations, playing various musical instruments and, best of all, singing swing, standards, jazz, gospel, country-western, you name it, he sang it. Interviews and commentary from other show business legends like Gregory Peck, George Burns, and Henry Mancini add to the portrait painted of this unparalelled performer---highlighting his singing and acting accomplishments. I highly recommend this DVD to every Darin fan and every fan of good, old-fashioned entertainment. He was truly a legendary performer with immense and eclectic talent and an ingratiating and magnetic personality. Talk about charisma? Wow! Who knows how great he would have become had he lived a normal life span?
I Love Bobby.......2006-02-27
I watched this after watching the movie that was recently made about his life. I am glad that I did it that way. Now I am interested in reading biographies and purchasing more dvd's and cd's of his. A great talent, that should be enjoyed again and agian.
Really good bio about a master showman.......2006-01-06
This is one of two great bios about BD (the other being the A&E songmaker's collection), and this one has some fantastic footage. I especially like the fact that they showed an entire Mack the Knife number (from 1970 Andy Williams show), and a fantastic version of Higher and Higher (from Bobby's own 1972/73 TV show), tho' I wish they'd shown more complete numbers. Includes interviews with lots of celebs, showing how widely respected he was in the industry. A must for BD fans, or anyone wondering why BD has so many fans decades after he sung his last song.

With its spectacular sweep of earthly treasures--the peak of Mt. Everest, a lush valley in the Western U.S., a whirl of land and sky as seen from the cockpit of an aerobatic flyer--America's Heart and Soul is an unusual Disney documentary visually grand yet thematically intimate, focusing on two dozen people from around the country who have found purpose through their passionate endeavors. First-time director Louis Schwartzberg embraces the soulful, gritty, sometimes painful cost of American freedom in the stories of cowboy Roudy Roudebush, a recovering alcoholic; Marc and Ann Savoy, Cajun musicians whose family has lived on the same Louisiana land for seven generations; and California dancer-mountainside rappeller Amelia Rudolph, who choreographs eccentric performances below the cliffs at Muir Beach. Chapters about ex-con Michael Bennett, who survived prison to become the U.S. Olympic Boxing Team captain, and the Reverend Cecil Williams, founder of a truly inclusive church in San Francisco, are particularly inspiring. --Tom Keogh
Description
From sea to shining sea, from amber waves of grain to purple mountain majesties, it's not merely the land that makes America beautiful -- it's her people. Captured with stunning cinematography, AMERICA'S HEART & SOUL takes you on a journey that weaves across this great nation, revealing a rich tapestry of ordinary people living extraordinary lives as they follow their dreams with the freedom of spirit that's uniquely American. From the Vermont dairy farmer, to the blind mountain climber, to the father and son marathon runners, their inspiring stories are as different as can be -- passionate, colorful, courageous, funny, touching. Featuring an exclusive new song by John Mellencamp, "The World Don't Bother Me None," AMERICA'S HEART & SOUL is a gloriously joyous celebration of being an American.
Customer Reviews:
America has Heart and Soul.......2007-03-19
This is such a lovely documentary it should have received much more attention. It was somehow, incorrectly, reviewed as a backlash to Michael Moore's movie because it came out at a similar time. This is not a political movie and it has nothing to do with the events of 9-11. In fact, all of the movie was shot before 9-11 occurred. It was not released earlier because of the extensive editing and because a distributor had not yet picked it up. I would recommend this delightful look at passions and businesses of everyday people across America.
AMERICA'S HEART AND SOUL.......2007-03-09
America's Heart and Soul is a wonderful documentary of true Americana. It renews our love of country and the people who inhabit it. It lifts our spirits and gives us to realize that no matter the bad times we go through, there are more than enough good times and places and people to constantly restore our souls. We are taken from sea to shining sea to meet the people who reach for the stars and push the envelopes. From the Vermont farmer and his son to the soul singer/musicians in New Orleans and the oil fire fighters in Texas, we get a wonderful glimpse of the folks who prove day after day that America is still the land of the free and the home of the brave and that those who have dreams can see them come true, no matter the odds. It speaks to the heart and gives us pause. It entices us to rekindle our own dreams and realize what is really important in this life. And most of all, it makes us realize that America is still the greatest land of all. I recommend it for children and adults alike. A wonderful gift to bestow on friends and family. Great cinematography, a fantastic experience that will bring tears to the eye and laughter to the heart. I cannot praise it enough. Wonderful.
Inspirational and Wonderful.......2007-01-15
I happened to meet Dan Klennert in Elbe Washington, who is featured on this book and video. I was inspired and awed by his works. Disney has done an unbelievable job of finding unique, interesting and inspirational people throughout the United States. This book and video will just make you feel good.
America's Heart & Soul.......2006-11-12
The absolute best documentary about the vast differences in America from the language of New Orleans to the language of the mountain people in NC, and the wild, wild, west. This footage ofers places unseen by many including those who done extensive traveling. After seeing the beauty, color, and richness of the people within the greatess nation on God's green earth, the film leaves you with laughs, tears, and joy. You feel proud to be an american: part of such a great group of people. Another good thing about this film is for those who enjoy traveling, this will stir you up, make you excited, and ease your worries about staying inside the U.S. to travel because after you see the wonderful colors of mountains, streams, the praire, cowboys ridin the fences like they did a 100 years ago, the big cities and everything in between you'll be amazed that you are not making some travel plans to go see some of these places for yourself.
Feel good about being an American living in the USA.......2006-04-22
This is the kind of feel-good documentary that will leave you teary-eyed and longing for more human connection. The exquisite cinematography, and lilting, moving soundtrack, capture the essence of America and its people, be it those living in "Small Town USA," the "burbs," or on some rich, cultural urban island. The common thread is humanity, a shared sense of identity, history, goal-oriented struggle, family, and an unwavering optimism and hope for the future. Buy a copy for everyone you love or, better yet, gather all around the TV and watch it together. It was just what my husband and I needed one night to renew our faith in all that is uniquely American - our blended culture, our loyalty to God, country and family, our ties to our land and heritage, our rugged individualism, and our never-say-die dogged determination. This could bring flag waving and the Pledge of Allegiance back into style...

Heart Of America .......2006-07-08
This Movie Is My Favourite Movie Of All Time I Have Watched This Movie Many Of Times If You Wanna See A School Shooting Movie Than Go Watch This Movie :)
P.S I Dont Think Much Of The Other School Shooting Movies Like
Elephant & Bang Bang Your Dead
Hoped This Review Helped You Out Cos This Is The Best Movie Ever
Excellent.......2005-10-02
I hated Elephant, and Heart of American is much better. It's more real, has better acting, and more intriguing. Clint Howard is great in a character that he hardly plays. Shocking and great - words to describe Heart of America.
wake up and smell the coffee!.......2005-01-04
Well, this movie can be bought on dvd and vhs everywhere here in the Netherlands since almost a year ago now. Kinda strange that it got released in the US only last month, and that it appears to be not that successfull, since this movie got only very few reviews.
Anyway, if that is the case, I want to make clear that it is highly underrated, since it is a very good movie.
Although you'll see the climax coming miles away, this movie still keeps you on the edge of your seat, and makes you wonder which one of the students who are bullied will snap in the end.
The editing is very stylish, since it doesn't run in chronological order, but not confusing in anyway, I thought it was a nice touch. The soundtrack really adds to the emotions the "victims" feel; and by victims, I mean the students who are bullied all over through highschool and then finally snap.
They went through hell, and a bully can't imagine what he is doing to a person. Don't get me wrong, I'm not approving of taking revenge on bullies by killing them, but to be honest, I can understand why they did it.
If you're humiliated, bullied, abused, hit and kicked every single day, year in year out, you're bound to snap one day; a human being can only take this much.
This movie really lets you understand the hell those students are going through, and why they one day pick up a gun, and don't care what they do, even if it cost their own life.
Therefore this is a great movie, well-acted well directed and everyone should see this.
I'm a teacher myself, and can't possibly understand how these things can happen and escalate. I mean, if a student gets picked on every day, it's hard to believe that the teachers don't know about it. So I guess, they DO know, but just don't do anything about it, maybe because they're used to it, and think it's "part of the game".
When students in my class pick on each other, I immediately nip it in the bud, so I got a "happy" classroom, and after the first schooldays the bullying was soon over.
But I guess, it can happen everywhere.
Not only in America this happened, but it already happened 2 years ago in Germany, and last year here in the Netherlands. A student in The Hague snapped and killed a principal.
I think people should act upon this ongoing trend, and prevent other highschool dramas from happening.
Anyway, I'm rambling along about the events in our world, but this should be a movie review; and to come to that, I just think that this movie can be of great influence on students; not in a way, to encourage the bullied ones to pick up a gun, but I think it will convert some bullies and stop them from bullying others. I think unwillingly they will come to their senses and realize what they're doing to other people, and what consequences it may have.
Therefore I absolutely recommend this movie, not only to students, but to everyone, since everyone should know what is going on in the world in in our students' heads and lives.
A great wake up call.......2004-12-07
This movie is a great wake up call for how high school can be. Most high schools aren't as extreme as the one in this movie, but there are high schools out there that this could happen in.
