Welcome back, Michael...at least I hope you're back for good

Thanks but not really. I've been busting my ass on overtime at work so I could afford all the concerts I've got lined up the next month (as well as some previous ones). With all the overtime there wasn't really much time to watch movies other than when the girlfriend and I made it out to the theater. I've got The Rolling Stones coming up this Friday, Aerosmith/Motley Crue in 2 weeks and then a trip to Chicago to see Dylan in 4 weeks. With plane tickets, gas, t-shirts, outrageous ticket prices and so on, the overtime was certainly needed.

a behind-the-scenes look at one of the best Silents I've ever watched, THE MAN WHO LAUGHS (1928)?

As a silent film fan you might find more to enjoy in THE BLACK DAHLIA. I really got a kick when they showed MAN WHO LAUGHS in the movie but I think I was the only one in the theater that knew it was a real film.

I've watched my fair share of (bowdlerized) Joe D'Amato/Laura Gemser combos of late but, somehow, they never screen this one on late-night Italian TV. Now I know why...!

I'm not sure if you've seen EMANUELLE IN AMERICA but the horse scene here is even worse than in that film. However, with that film, in the end I didn't feel the hype surrounding the movie was worth it.

And, irony of ironies, now that it's finally been made available on DVD allowing one to watch it any old time he likes, I'm excluded from this opportunity for being a foreigner and this set is a "Best Buy" exclusive! Bleeech...

I'm sure someone here could pick it up for you. I haven't been following the controversy too much but I'm certainly glad to have these films available on DVD. While I took a time out from watching movies, all these horror releases over the next few weeks will make it very easy to get back on track.
I'm sure Joe will post something later but I see he didn't care too much for THE MOLE PEOPLE either. He gave it a half a star too much but......
