51. Network (1976)
Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: At this point, Network seems better remembered as a catch phrase than as a film, which is an ironic fate for a picture determined to knock such simpleminded behaviors. I found the movie to be a flawed but compelling work that had enough strengths to merit a viewing. Starring Faye Dunaway, William Holden. Warner, $26.98, 2/28/2006.

52. Village of the Damned [Blu-Ray] (1960)
Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: One of the more famous films to focus on “evil children”, 1960’s Village of the Damned overcomes some budget-related flaws to turn into an effective thriller. With a good cast and a nicely understated approach to its chills, the movie delivers a compelling tale. Starring George Sanders, Barbara Shelley. Warner, $21.99, 7/31/2018.

53. Rear Window [4K UHD] (1954)
Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: 1954’s Rear Window stands with the best of Alfred Hitchcock’s material. The film moves at a slow but compelling pace and uses simple methods to ensnare the viewer. Starring James Stewart, Grace Kelly. Universal, $29.98, 9/7/2021.

54. Leatherface [Blu-ray] (2017)
Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: As a premise, the prequel concept of Leatherface shows promise. However, the film brings us nothing new and seems like little more than 88 minutes of graphic violence in search of a story. Starring Stephen Dorff, Lili Taylor. Lionsgate, $21.99, 12/19/2017.

55. The Phantom of the Opera [4K UHD] (1943)
Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: The 1943 edition of The Phantom of the Opera provides an intermittently-interesting but generally dull and bloodless retelling of the classic tale. Even the presence of the great Claude Rains cannot spice up the proceedings. Starring Claude Rains, Nelson Eddy. Universal, $79.98, 10/11/2022.

56. Airport [Blu-Ray] (1970)
Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: While Airport launched the disaster flick boom of the Seventies, it doesn’t stand as one of the genre’s more interesting releases. Indeed, I think it’s probably one of the most boring examples of this kind of movie, as it pours on too much soap opera and too little action or intrigue. The Blu-ray offers pretty good picture and audio but lacks subs

57. Halloween [4K UHD] (2018)
Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: A sequel that negates the existence of its predecessors, Halloween launches from an interesting perspective. However, as a continuation of the original film, it seems only sporadically compelling. Starring Jamie Lee Curtis, Judy Greer. Universal, $39.98, 1/15/2019.

58. Lockout [Blu-Ray] (2012)
Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: Don’t expect Lockout to deliver an original sci-fi action experience, but if you can get past its derivative nature, you’ll probably have fun with it. Though it seems pretty brain-dead, it gives us enough excitement to make it enjoyable. The Blu-ray boasts excellent picture and audio along with a couple of decent featurettes. Genre fans will probably lik

59. The Dead Zone [Blu-Ray] (1983)
Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: After so many decades of crummy movies based on Stephen King stories, it becomes easy to forget that strong films like The Dead Zone exist. Dark, deliberate and unnerving, the flick offers a solid supernatural thriller. Starring Christopher Walken, Brooke Adams. Paramount, $36.99, 9/15/2020.

60. Vertigo [4K UHD] (1958)
Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: Often regarded as Alfred Hitchcock’s greatest achievement, I admit Vertigo tends to leave me a little cold. However, I recognize that it offers a well-crafted tale with plenty of psychological depth and intrigue on display. Starring James Stewart, Kim Novak. Universal, $29.98, 9/7/2021.
