No matter how hard fighters have fought there is always one more battle around the corner. Trying to put his dubious past behind himself Pale Rider stumbles upon a small but split community. He is taken by their endeavours and honesty, but he is ultimately drawn into a fight he'd rather ride away from. Having been shown hospitality by them he obliges to see off an intruder in the shape of Richard Kiel(Jaws from Moonraker). He manages this in a manner reminiscent of David versus Goliath.
A criticism I would level at our hero is that he accounts for more corpses than the Black Death, and his final confrontation leaving his "mark" in a unique fashion was way too contrived. No matter how good or crafty he may be it doesn't have the full menace ... Read More:

"Make Mine Mink" is absolutely delightful. I have removed a star only because of the full-screen ratio (4 : 3). Any character standing on the side of the screen gets cut off, which is a shame, especially when said character has dialogue. This film needs to be seen in letter-box format, but meanwhile let's thank the producers for giving us this comic gem in any format whatsoever. Other than this problem, which can be annoying, the transfer is very clear, and the sound-track is excellent.

With the exceptions of gap-toothed Terry-Thomas and the splendid Athene Seyler, many of these actors come from the zany "Carry On" flicks, and they are priceless, especially Hattie Jacques, who plays a hefty, hard-boiled professor of etiquette. "Make Mine Mink" ... Read More:

DVD : The Fourth Wise Man - DVD (REGION 1) (NTSC)
This film will probably appeal to Church-going people more than to the non-religious, but all alike can enjoy the story. Set around the biblical account of Christ's birth, life and death, we follow the fictional adventures of a wise man and his slave as they seek to find the Son of God and present their gifts to Him. Left behind by the other wise men, Artoban sets off on his own. He comes across situations just behind the other wise men and the accounts of Jesus in the New Testament. He uses his gifts for the Christ to help others and this culminates on Easter Sunday when, with all his gifts gone, the main character finally is met by Jesus after He had risen from the dead. He then recognises that what he did for others were his gift to God.
The sets are stunning ... Read More:
