HD Purchase Please!First off another reviewer was spot on, the trailer is horrible. It actually looks like the beginning of the movie is just playing.
Second, this is a phenomenal movie with a fantastic cast, many of whom were much lesser known at the time. Caruso, Snipes, Buscemi, Fishburne, Esposito, Snipes, Argo, the list goes on. However, I can not for the life of me understand why a movie this old is available in HD for rental but not purchase too. For fans, it is a shame to purchase a movie in SD and later have it come out in HD with no upgrade policy, so we are forced to wait, hoping that it will be available for purchase in HD at some point..Roland.gScore: 5/5

Deutsch Nachdem der legendäre Gangster Frank White nach einer langen Haftstrafe zu seiner Gang zurückkehrt, beginnt er kontinuierlich, sein Revier auf gewaltsame Weise zurückzuerobern. Er möchte das lukrative Alltagsgeschäft aus Prostitution und Drogenhandel wieder unter seine Kontrolle bringen. Doch irgendwann scheint sich Franks korrupte Persönlichkeit zu wandeln. Er fängt an, im Rahmen seiner Möglichkeiten Gutes zu tun, und spendet Teile der Erlöse aus dem Drogengeschäft an wohltätige Zwecke. Eine Gruppe von Polizisten um Roy Bishop hält dieses Verhalten für einen gerissenen Trick und beginnt am Rande der Legalität gegen Frank zu arbeiten, um ihm endgültig das Handwerk zu legen. Zwischen dem Gangster und der Polizei entbrennt ein Kampf, der mit Waffengewalt geführt wird.

He has survived on the streets for twenty years. He's a gambler...a thief...a junkie...a killer and a cop. Now he's investigating the most shocking case of his life, and as he moves closer to the truth his self-destructive past is closing in. Harvey Keitel gives a searing performance as an out-of-control police detective on a collision course with disaster in director Abel Ferrara's brilliant and deeply disturbing melodrama.
In career that has encompassed such controversial classics as Ms. 45, Bad Lieutenant and Welcome to New York, none of Abel Ferrara’s films have quite managed to match the shock, extremity and downright notorious nature of The Driller Killer. Ferrara plays struggling artist Reno, a man pushed to the edge by the economic realities of New York living in the late seventies and the No Wave band practising in the apartment below. His grip on reality soon begins to slip and he takes to stalking the streets with his power tool in search of prey… One of the most infamous ‘video nasties’, in part thanks to its drill-in-head sleeve, The Driller Killer has lost none of its power to unnerve and is presented here fully uncut.
Jericho (Ethan Hawke) is an American soldier stationed in post-apocalyptic Rome under a pandemic and war-torn lockdown. After witnessing the Vatican blown up into the night sky, he sets out on a mission to uncover and document the truth for the world to see and stop the true terrorists responsible.
In a large apartment high above the city lives our couple. They’re in love. She’s a painter, he’s a successful actor. Just a normal afternoon - except that this isn’t a normal afternoon, for them or anyone else. Because tomorrow, at 4:44 am, give or take a few seconds, the world will come to an end far more rapidly than even the worst doomsayer could have imagined. The final meltdown will come, not without warnings, but with no means of escape. There will be no survivors. As always, there are those who, as their final cigarette is being lit and the blindfold tightened, will still hope against hope for some kind of reprieve. For a miracle. Not our two lovers. They - like the majority of the Earth’s population - have accepted their fate; the world is going to end.
The Roman life and the imaginary worlds of Pier Paolo Pasolini intermingle in Abel Ferrara’s retelling of the final days in the life of the fifty-year-old filmmaker and writer, in a lovely, haunting film that draws on his last interview and envisages scenes from an unmade final film and his incomplete novel, Petrolio. Willem Dafoe, regally exhausted, is the spitting image of the murdered director, and Pasolini’s beloved muse Ninetto Davoli returns to “finish” his friend’s work, but Ferrara wisely never attempts to merely ape Pasolini’s style, instead offering one iconoclastic artist’s tribute to another, a biopic that busts the boundaries of the form and a passion project decades in the imagining that gives Pasolini’s final moments on the beach at Ostia the terrible sanctity of the Passion.
Kim realizes that her crime-fighting lifestyle has prevented her from having a steady boyfriend and that Ron may be the only prospect as her date for the upcoming junior prom, a distasteful prospect in the eyes of the other cheerleaders. However, Ron introduces Kim to Erik, the new guy at school who invites Kim to the prom, sparking jealousy in Ron who wonders if he has deeper feelings for his friend Kim. Meanwhile, in his scheme to conquer the world, Drakken captures Kim's dad and it's up to Ron to put his jealousy aside, track down a lovestruck Kim and rescue her dad from a certain fate with a mutant octopus.
