BUY FROM AMAZON

Product Description: Sabu (Arabian Nights), Wendell Corey (I Walk Alone) and Joanne Page (Casablanca) head the cast of this roaring adventure tale, Man-Eater of Kumaon. In the jungles of northern India, American doctor-turned-hunter John Collins (Corey) shoots at a tiger but manages only to injure its paw. When his bearer warns him that they must find and kill the tiger before it wreaks havoc, Collins ignores his pleas. Now, with a local village decimated by the titular man-eating tiger, and with the help of a tragedy-stricken couple, Narain (Sabu) and Lali (Page), the doctor gains a new perspective on his fellow man, and hunts for the ultimate prey. Based on the bestselling novel by hunter-naturalist Jim Corbett and rousingly directed by sci-fi/adventure great Byron Haskin (The War of the Worlds, The Naked Jungle, September Storm).

DVD & Blu-ray: THE WAR OF THE WORLDS (1953) - Criterion Collection

BUY FROM AMAZON

Product Description: A mysterious, meteorlike object has landed in a small California town. All clocks have stopped. A fleet of glowing green UFOs hovers menacingly over the entire globe. The Martian invasion of Earth has begun, and it seems that nothing—neither military might nor the scientific know-how of nuclear physicist Dr. Clayton Forrester (Gene Barry)—can stop it. In the expert hands of genre specialists George Pal and Byron Haskin, H. G. Wells’s end-of-civilization classic receives a chilling Cold War–era update, complete with hallucinatory Technicolor and visionary, Oscar-winning special effects. Emblazoned with iconographic images of 1950s science fiction, The War of the Worlds is both an influential triumph of visual imagination and a still-disquieting document of the wonder and terror of the atomic age.
