Knights of the Zodiac - Vol. 2: The Fight for the Gold Cloth (VHS)
The Knights of Althena have but two goals -- to protect the world and to return Althena, the Goddess of Wisdom to her place on the throne. Bronze knight Seiya leads the group, and their mixture of marital arts skills and mystic abilities make them formidable saviors in a world filled with evil. In these episodes, Ikki (aka -- the Phoenix) makes it past Andromeda`s Nebula Chains, with a vengeful plan.NR"
In Dreams (DVD)
This darkly imaginative film from director Neil Jordan (THE CRYING GAME, INTERVIEW WITH A VAMPIRE) follows Claire, a psychic New England housewife (Annette Bening) who loses her grip on reality when her dreams connect with those of a psychotic child murderer (Robert Downey Jr.). Centered around a ghost town submerged in the local reservoir and a creepy apple orchard, Claires disturbing visions baffle the police and eventually lead to her confinement in an insane asylum. As the killer`s fantasies continue to haunt her, Claire realizes she must succumb to her link with his twisted psyche if she is to escape from the hospital, track him down, and put an end to the madness.
Jordan`s direction captures his heroine`s horrific nightmares and the autumnal New England locales brilliantly, while Bening attacks her role with ferocious gusto. The film`s uniquely rich, color-saturated look comes courtesy of cinematographer Darius Khondji. Jordan wrote the screenplay with Bruce Robinson (WITHNAIL & I), adapted from the novel DOLL`S EYES by Bari Wood, and longtime Jordan collaborator Stephen Rea costars as Claire`s doubtful psychiatrist.R"
