Night of the Hunter .. is on my Top 20 of All Time! Can't wait for the Kino 4K!
I would also recommend watching the original Cape Fear (1962) for another fantastic Robert Mitchum performance.
I'm waiting for a Criterion Collection version of Howard the Duck.
That would be dope. Lol
@@midlevelmedia it would be
A Classic 😎 🤪
Kino Lorber has already announced a 4K remaster of The Night of the Hunter, with Dolby Vision, so I’m gladly waiting for that release.
Got all of them Ken. Five recommendations A Taste of Cherry, Repo Man, The Parallax View, The Celebration, It Happened One Night. The night of the Hunter is coming to KL on 4K.
For me, I would include Night of the Living Dead, scanners, War of the Worlds original. I also love Things to Come. A 1936 movie based on HG Wells. Kind of mix of scifi and post apocalypse.
I saw Night of The Living Dead on Shudder a couple of days ago and it was this crystal clear print better than any print I have seen which made !e wonder how criterion's is.
I've a large collection of DVDs, blu-rays and 4Ks and no movie is more treasured in my collection than the Criterion 4K of "Shaft." Every word you said about it, Level, is true, then and now. It captures the raw grittiness of '70s New York City as only two other films did -- Scorsese's "Taxi Driver" and his "Mean Streets" debut.
Shaft and Menace 2 Society and Dazed n Confused for me
@@bigdadd09able I'm gonna have to get the "Menace" 4K.
@@edtallman7264 definitely worth the $$$
@@bigdadd09able thanks mike.
Lilian Gish was a silent film superstar. Her last big movie was in 1987. A true legend.
Night of the Hunter 👍🏻…such a fantastic movie. All 5 recommendations are great.
I picked up The Virgin Suicides on 4K on sale -- tempted to get Raging Bull but I've seen that so many times already I felt like I needed a break.
Cronos & Blue Velvet I'm definitely interested in. Already have saved to my list. I'll eventually pick up Shaft & Menace II Society.
Top 3 Criterions to recommend to you!
Repulsion (1965) Directed by Roman Polanski and starring Catherine Deneuve. A psychological drama I think you would like by your tastes in films.
Charade (1963) Audrey Hepburn, Cary Grant, Walter Matthau, James Coburn. The most Hitchcock film not Hitchcock. It is a must see.
Bruce Lee: His Greatest Hits. Come on man! It is a Criterion collection of the man, the myth, the legend Bruce Freaking Lee
Night of the Hunter is truly special. Chillllll-DREN!
I agree with everything you said about The Night of the Hunter but I'm waiting to see what Kino Lorber does with the 4K release. I will most likely go with the 4K edition over the Criterion Blu-ray.
You need the Lone Wolf and Cub Criterion lol
Is that good?
@@midlevelmedia A Japanese samurai journey with a man and his son traveling on a road for revenge to seek his wife's killers and he pushes his son in a booby trap baby cart lol,very bloody and was banned in a lot of countries back in the day and highly recommended if you are of fan of Asian cinema.
One Criterion title that I bought last year and love is Equinox. It's a super low budget stop motion animation live action hybrid that I loved growing up. It's only available on DVD, but it perfectly captures the feel of watching it on Chiller Theater. I also bought that huge Godzilla set last year. Hoping to get Shaft, Pink Flamingos, and some Cronenberg titles, as well as Breathless either this month or in November.
I definitely recommend you should watch David Lynch’s more “normal“ movies. The Elephant Man and The Straight Story. The Straight Story is on Disney+ and it may be my favorite David Lynch movie.
I'm hoping to get both Lynch Criterions I own in this month. Thanks!
GI JANE 2! 😀😀😀 I heard you slip it in and it cracked me up!😀😀😀
Picked up, The Rose. The Last Waltz, Night of the Hunter. Seen The Rose in 1979 when it was released in theaters. Had to get.
Night of the Hunter is an absolute masterpiece
Menace 2 society and shaft both got UK releases around the same time as the 4K releases in America but we only get them on 1080p I don’t get why criterion is shafting us with the discs
Nice picks especially Blue Velvet
"Medicine Society" is an intriguing title for a movie, to be sure.
Paris, Texas was a blind buy. I had no idea what it was. Never heard of it. Never heard anyone talk about it. I just went out on a limb and randomly bought it just because I kept seeing it on top of preorders a while back. It was great.
12 Angry Men was a blind buy too. I love movies where it's all dialogue with characters in one room.
I need to watch 12 Angry Men right away!
I know Shaft goes hard. That's one cool cat
going to to check out The Night of the Hunter when I get a chance, thanks Ken
Don’t want to hear about your shaft going hard… this is a family channel.
ok but it's been more than 4 hours...@@ScreamingIntoTheOvoid
Cronos 👍👍👍👍👍 My recommendation for you is Shallow Grave
Fantastic choices, Ken! Can't recommend that Menace II Society 4K enough, seconded! Thanks for sharing, my friend!
Dude. If you want another cool black and white film and are a fan of Jimmy Stewart, you need to get Anatomy of Murder (1959), directed by Otto Preminger and co-starring a young Lee Remick. Great film. Oh and one of the greatest creepy films of all time: The Innocents (1961) - fabulous!
Night of the hunter is a masterpiece - got the superior Arrow release of this film. I have an issue with Criterion not releasing all its films outside US. They released 4K version of Hard days night but not in the UK - ended up buying Koch release which had better packaging and more discs - evident though that 4K disc was Criterion.
Nice job. Yours is the third recomendation on Night of the Hunter. Right on about Shaft. Movies filmed in 1970’s NYC are awesome for their style and look and feel. Having grown up around there and remembering it is great. I’m going to get both of them. Thanks for the good work. Appreciate it.
I loved Shaft! Definitely check out Hunter!
#1 - SPINE 1000 - GODZILLA: The Showa Era Films - 1954-1975
I can't wait for THAT set to eventually get the 4K upgrade! Maybe, if we are lucky, we just might get it in 2024.
I was only able to pick up uncut gems but I'm glad I did
It's so good! An instant classic!
Recommendations:
Barry Lyndon
Its a Mad Mad Mad Mad World
Punch Drunk Love
The Game
Repo Man
Brazil
Naked Lunch
Princess Bride
Ken, you still need to see 'Elephant Man' (also on Criterion). I personally think that and 'Blue Velvet' are his best work.
Have Night Of The Hunter coming tomorrow. Shaft is definitely on my buy list!!
Nice! You'll enjoy that!
@@midlevelmedia Late with the reply....absolutely loved it!!
Seven Samurai! Great movie!
Yes! Hoping to watch it this month!
Great video Ken!! I'm with you on the David Lynch thing but I think mine goes even further in that I may not snag Blue Velvet. I think I need to give it another watch though. I do recall when I first watched it, it didn't blow me away like everyone was saying it would.
Not many Criterion movies I have the desire to own since I don’t wanna watch super old movies lol only ones I own are Fast times, Marriage story and Menace 2 society can’t think of any others I would buy Dazed in confused but I own the blu ray and unless they have a 4K no point to upgrade it now
Uncut gem felt no end to upgrade from the A24 release
Night of the Hunter is a great film. I agree with others on here about Repo Man being one of the best criterion releases. I will say criterion went all in on the Pink Flamingos release they just put out. It’s quit a movie to give that big of a special treatment to haha
Repoman has beautiful packaging!
I just received my Criterion disc The Great Beauty in mail yesterday from Amazon. The hard plastic case badly broken on two corners. This is the second broken disc case I've gotten from Amazon this year, out of about only six orders/packages total. Every disc I buy from Amazon comes in an unprotected thin plastic or paper envelope. So frustrating, cause after I mail it back tomorrow for a replacement, it will take at least two full weeks to finally get it, and praying that disc or case won't be also be broken. I just started buying and collecting select blu ray movies in past 6 months and so these broken blu-ray cases seem to be relatively high.
I bought one Criterion, Thief - James Caan
I might have that coming soon as well. I'm excited!
5. Criterion Blu-ray. You have in. Your. Collection
Waiting for Night of the Hunter to get a 4K release like Touch of Evil!
It's supposed to get one this year
While I think The Night of the Hunter is an excellent recommendation, there is going to be a 4K release of the movie from Kino also
Nice recommendations Ken! I’ll be out on the look out for that the first criterion movie you mention I pick up a few Criterion Blu-rays right now with sale that Barnes And Noble has right now. The first one I pick up I’ve been wanting to get this one ever since last year it’s expensive but for $99.99 I couldn’t pass on it I got the World Of Wong Kar Wai collection on Blu-ray which includes 6 discs and the next one I pick up on Blu-ray was The Virgin Suicides and the last criterion I pick up on Blu-ray was Okja and finally I got Wild Things on Blu-ray from Arrow Video. Anyways Ken nice recommendations and I’ll check you out on the next video.
Thanks for watching! Wild Things is a great release!
Repo man is a cult classic had it for a while now
Hi:
Who Are You To Tell Me What I Need... Your Preferences In Movies May Not Be The Same As Your Audience.
Recommend Using "Recommend"
Some Criterion titles to check out: "Pan's Labyrinth", "Nightmare Alley" (1947 original), "Blow Out" (Brian dePalma), "Flight Of The Phoenix" (James Stewart), and "Wages Of Fear" (intense suspense thriller remade as "Sorcerer" by Wm Friedkin). Hope you like them all. Loved your suggestions--have them all!
Getting Blow Out on 4K for sure!
Blow Out is awesome
Jada smith is good in Jason's lyric
I’ve bought 3 criterion movies, and only watched 2 so far… Why is the sound/volume not good? Both movies sound was super disappointing. Anyone else deal with this?
I've watched so many criterion pick up and recommendation videos from so many CZcamsrs and not one of them have talked about The Naked Prey. It's such a good action/suspense movie from a one man band, Cornel Wilde, who produced, starred, and directed the movie. If you like The Running Man, The Most Dangerous Game, Apocalypto, the Hunger Games, Hard Target, et al, you would love this movie. It is certainly an oeuvre of its own, but it is among the best. The story is taken from a supposedly true old west story about a trader who was stripped naked and hunted by Native Americans in the early 19th century and his successful escape from their pursuits, according to the notes inside the dvd; swapping Native Americans for African Tribesman in the 1860s. It combines action, suspense, and I think actual snuff movies of big game animals being killed, as well as a fantastic stripped back soundtrack of only percussion and the singing voices of African tribesman, its a fantastic movie. I only have the dvd, and it looks like a blu ray sometimes, especially close up scenes, the transfer is totally excellent.
I'll have to look into that one then. Sounds good!
I have 5 criterion I need to scoop up
Definitely! So good!
I could have sworn you informed us at some point that the night of the hunter is coming to a 4K as part of your rumours in the physical media report, but maybe I am remembering this wrong. But it’s the reason I’ve been holding back :D
Ohhh yeah. It is coming from Kino. I'll probably get it eventually, but I bought this Criterion right before it was announced.
Carnival of Souls....
That's been on my list for awhile.
The movies of the 1970s was a departure from staged sets that did not represent the current cultural reality of urban decay and the cost to make a movie without major studio backing
Taxi Driver is another use of the city as a character or characture of the movie and reality of city in the city with all it run down infrastructure is on point
I know. Love that realism.
Night of the Hunter (1955)
Shaft (1971)
Cronos (1993) - Guillermo del Toro
Menace to Society (1993)
Yes!
Eyes Without A Face
Repulsion
Sisters
Brief Encounter
The Game
When does the sale end??
Last day of July
Mom can we get Boyz In The Hood
“We have Boyz in the Hood at home.”
*Menace II Society*
I don’t get the hype. It’s a really poorly written and acted movie.
