12. The Defiant Ones 1958 8/10
That woman in the second half only works if she really only wanted to go with Tony Curtis to escape her life, the Hollywood-"fall in love immediately" thing disturbs me otherwise.
13. The Palm Beach Story 1942 7/10
Entertaining Although I don't really like the end
14. Some Came Running 1958 8+/10
Shirley MacLaine's character is over the top but I might upgrade it to a 9 as it's really well written (I'm glad that they didn't add to many Hollywood cliches) otherwise and that fantastic end sequence is of course the highlight.

Thanks for hosting this thread Mel. I'll kick off with:

FTV:1:The Rat Catcher (1974). Hong Kong. 10.



Getting Lin’s hands stuck in the till each time he attempts to pickpocket, director Chih-Hung Kuei & his regular cinematographer Chi Yu handcuff Lin with a enchanting Comedy Caper atmosphere, brushed in Shaw Brothers shimmering bright blues and yellows colours that keep the atmosphere light and playful. Stealing a number of Spaghetti Western soundtracks, Kuei takes the grit of the Wild West tunes, and twists them into hilariously heightening a zany atmosphere, via washing them over the brightened faces of Lin and traffic cop Brother Neoi , whose blushes become redder with each succeeding underhand steal pickpocket ace Fang performs.

Sadly not being credited anywhere online, and the subtitles not making clear when their credit appears on screen, the unlisted writer spins a merry Caper tale of Fang charming all who catch her sight, which Fang slyly uses to commit a robbery right under noses. Keeping the stakes high for Lin to become a successful thief by the threat of his kids school closing, the writer folds Lin’s motive into Fang’s escapades, and wonderfully twists the Caper power play inside out, with Fang and Lin ending up trying to help their old arch enemy Neoi in getting a promotion. Caught out by Fang and Neoi,Locke Hua Liu gives a sweet performance as Lin, whose hapless stealing skills shine with a aw- shucks sincerity, whilst Ni Tien sparkles in her glamour clothes and teasing flirting Fang greets everyone with,used by Tien as a cover for Fang catching the latest rat.

Hi all,I first want to say thanks to Mel for the warm welcome. After seeing the crap Slasher The Mutilator (1984),I decided that I had to open Arrow's epic set for the final film in the box.



FTV:2: Vampyres (1974)10.

For the most famous film in the set, Arrow present a impeccable transfer of a clean soundtrack and the picture retaining the film grain and delicate colour balance of the title.

Completing his British Horror period, (after a three year break,he returned to Spain and made El fin de la inocencia (1977) ) after Symptoms (1974) editor Brian Smedley-Aston said “If you want to do something similar to Symptoms, but more horrific,I’ll go and find some money and produce it for you.” leading to the unique at-odds stance of the producer wanting to put cash on a “important” film, but the director holding firm, later saying “I discouraged Brian,I said no. I preferred to do something modest than try something more grand,because I knew the limitations and I know that the number one thing in films in to get money.”

Made for just £40,000 and filmed over three weeks, (the money men backed out on week one,leading to Smedley-Aston re-mortgaging his house, and bringing his own cars in to be used) writer/directing auteur Jose Ramon Larraz bites into a incredible creation, overcoming all the production limitations to continue the exploration of Larraz’s recurring themes and motifs.

Joined by The Wicker Man (1973) cinematographer Harry Waxman, Larraz goes deep into the Gothic woodland surrounding the isolated manor house, and unveils his ultra-stylised, surrealist eerie Horror,enticingly keeping the vampires obscured by branches, (a recurring motif of Larraz) drawing a mirage impression to wide-shots cast across the countryside. Bringing the trio together in a crumbling Gothic manor, (a major recurring set-up in his works) Larraz brings the fangs out with a distinctive sensual atmosphere of winding camera shots down the dour corridor, which land on startling, gory outbreaks from Miriam and Fran,whose candle wax blood dripping, ravenous state, subtly allows Larraz to place the duo between a nightmare and reality, which fully comes into focus on the twist ending.

Crediting it to his wife so a British quota could be met, the screenplay by Larraz thrillingly points towards the themes he would continue to explore in Coming of Sin, in the hypnotic dominance the vampires, (played by the incredibly alluring Marianne Morris and the debut of Anulka Dziubinska) have over Ted. ( played by a wonderfully dazed and confused Anulka Dziubinska) Waking up drowsy with a thick bite mark in his arm, Larraz steaks Ted with surrealist dream-logic chills from the increased time he spends at the mansion, draining away Ted’s willingness to return to the high road,and escape the grip of the vampyres.

Hi all,I was wondering if anyone has seen the Blu of Kronos? The print on Shudder UK was a bit "ruff" round the edges, it would be good to see a more cleaned up version.



FTV:3: Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter (1974) 8

Left on the shelf for two years after filming, then dumped at cinemas leaving the openings made for a franchise dead, the screenplay by writer/director Brian Clemens offers a tantalising taste on what this could have been if turned into a franchise, thanks to Clemens bringing the genre-crossing creativity he gave The Avengers TV series, by successfully mixing Swashbuckler Comedy (!) into the Hammer Horror Gothic chills.

Galloping into a merry spoofing of the witch-finder strand of British Horror as Kronos and his handy hunchback sidekick Hieronymus Grost travel round towns freeing them from vampires who don’t just kill,but cast a spell on fair maidens leaving them looking like old hags. Playing around with the mythology of Hammer vampires by introducing several varieties, Clemens has Kronos and his team of Grost and worried local Dr. Marcus steak a wonderfully pulpy adventure,where they come up with new invented ways (toads buried in the ground) to take down the vampires.

Dubbed by Julian Holloway due to his German accent being deemed too strong, Horst Janson gives a jolly turn as Kronos,who Janson has charge in with a gleeful dashing pompousness, showing no fear to any fangs on show. Joining Kronos, Hammer regular John Carson gives a wonderfully ripe,dry wit performance as Dr. Marcus and sultry Caroline Munro (in her final Hammer) gives a lively turn, kicking away from the local mutterings,in order to join the fight with the good captain.

FTV:4:Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia (1974) 10



Later saying that for the resulting film, "I did it exactly the way I wanted to. Good or bad,like it or not,that was my film." co-writer/(with Gordon T. Dawson and Frank Kowalski) directing auteur "Bloody" Sam Peckinpah presents a unfiltered examination of the former Wild West outlaw and Bennie's code of conduct in making this a swift bounty pick up, getting smashed on the floor in a bloody mess. Bonding with cinematographer Alex Phillips Jr. Over a shared dislike of wide-angle lenses, and a admiration for zooms and multiple camera set ups, Bloody Sam continues to brutally build upon his major recurring themes and motifs, with the bruising action scenes crystallized in ballets full of bullets twirling in Sam's distinctive slow-motion and sawn-off zoom-ins heightening the unflinching Action atmosphere.

Subtly targeting the viewer to gaze into the unrelenting darkness in the final shot, Peckinpah and Phillips Jr bring a emotional weight to the violence, in gritty whip-pans dragged across the dusty town Bennie drives through with his girlfriend Elita, who brings warm, natural colours along when Bennie relaxes in the wild with her away from the grubby, murky coloured bar Bennie works at. Grinding down the stray bright sparks Elita brings, Peckinpah sinks any chance Bennie and Elita have of returning to their old lives, by sinking them in a hauntingly poetic graveyard set-piece,that leaves Bennie confronting the consequences of disrupting the status quo of life.

In the middle of macho personalities both on and off screen, Isela Vega gives a irresistible turn as Elita, who Vega has display a fiery push back when Bennie crosses a line, but also a calm thoughtfulness of something better being on the horizon. Basing his performance on Peckinpah,Warren Oates gives a fantastic performance as Bennie, thanks to Oates placing at the center of the grizzled, battered outlaw, a determination to bring back the head of Alfredo Garcia.

FTV:5: Harmonica (1974) 10

The film is on YT with Eng Subs.




Placing the camera at the height of the children, writer/director Amir Naderi & cinematographer Ali Reza Zarrindast play a incredibly intimate, documentary-inspired atmosphere from the camera being kept at the height of the children, who see the adults looking disapprovingly down at them, and the child who has gained power from a harmonica being in his hands, towering above them and forcing all to fellow his demands, even sticking a head through (personal prison) bars in a window, just for a moments play.

Filmed on the southern coast of Iran, Naderi goes up the beach with fluid Iran New Wave (INW) panning shots from above, looking down at the dots of children in the middle of a bustling market, where the sound of a harmonica rings out between the background noise. Crashing the waves of childhood innocence being lost, Naderi jump-cuts to the aggressive faces of the children shoving the others to gain the harmonica, until Naderi breaks the fighting up with a poetic, over saturated INW freeze frame final.

Bringing the harmonica into town via a outsider, the screenplay by Naderi thoughtfully touches on the use of power to keep the population under the bidding of a person, with the mother of the most severely bullied boy telling her son that she does not want to see him “Oppressed”, leading to him kicking back from those who view him as their faithful stupid “Donkey”,and drowning the power which has been held over him,which finally allows him to play his own tune.

FTV:6: China Girl (1974) 8



Holding back for 30 minutes before thrusting to a steamy set-piece, director Paul Aratow & cinematographer Red Dawson display a keen eye in emphasising the build up to a sensual Neo-Noir atmosphere, coldly opening the title with a mob boss doing business in the chilly outdoors. Flipping over to pleasure, rather than torture as a method to get info out of the scientists, Aratow holds back from overly graphic close-ups, instead washing everyone over with Hadley Caliman’s smoky Jazz score cast across close-ups capturing everyone being on the edge of pleasure.

Wisely deciding to play out the Dragon crime syndicate plans to make Dr. Olinsky and microbiologist Dr. Teresa Hardgrave give them details to the formula seriously, the screenplay by Edwin Brown releases pleasure not only from the steamy antics, but also tension from the Neo-Noir kidnapping, with Brown placing the power in the palms of the quick-witted Hardgrave, and the clinical Madame Woo determined to slide out Hardgrave and dim Dr. Olinsky’s secrets.

Getting hands on with the project by directing her own set-piece sequence with three guys,fit Annette Haven gives a wonderful performance as Hardgrave, who Haven has sizzle with a casual sensuality, whilst also a awareness from Hardgrave of a desire from all for her to leak info. In her lone credit,Pamela Yen gives a terrific performance as Woo, thanks to Yen bringing a seductive edge to Woo’s precise plan to get Hardgrave and Dr. Olinsky to leak the info with pleasure.
