America has been stuck by a glut of serial killers over the years, but the phenomenon began with the work of one man: H.H. Holmes. Based in Chicago, Holmes terrorized the local community with a series of murders and his infamous death house. A local landlord, Holmes ensnared his victims by renting rooms to them during the World's Fair in 1893. The house was littered with torture chambers and evil tools with which Holmes carried out his deeds. Filmmaker John Borowski has meticulously researched the case, and produced this chilling documentary on Holmes. Revisiting some of the mass murderers past haunts, Borowski draws on photographs, reenactments, and location footage to relive the ghoulish tale.DVD Features:Region 0Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Audio: Dolby Digital 5.1 EnglishAdditional Release Material: Trailers Commentary by Filmaker John Borowski OuttakesAdditional Products: Poster Designs

The Da Vinci Code Decoded (DVD) The Da Vinci Code Decoded (DVD) » The Da Vinci Code Decoded (DVD)

Dan Brown's wildly popular bestseller THE DA VINCI CODE struck a chord with readers unlike anything the publishing world had ever seen. Constructing a mystery around various conspiracy theories, he drew upon myths surrounding the bloodline of Christ, Mary Magdalene, and the Holy Grail. Brown connected them with Renaissance artist Leonardo Da Vinci, his involvement with the secret society of the Knights of Templar, and the posited messages encoded in his most famous paintings. Martin Lunn's answer to Brown's novel, upon which this documentary is based, fills in the background information on these formerly obscure topics. Lunn draws together a wealth of information to flesh out the truth behind the mystery; his book, THE DA VINCI CODE DECODED, reached bestseller status itself, and this documentary delves further into the controversy that continues to mystify and intrigue people the world over. Shot on location in Paris, London, and Scotland, this exploration features candid discussions with all the key scholars of the field, including Dan Brown himself. Lunn provides the real history of the Catholic offshoot Opus Dei, which appears in the book, as well as little-known facts about the bloodline of Christ, the origins of the Knights of Templar, the Priory of Scion, Temple Church, Rosslyn Cathedral, and many other disputed topics.DVD Features:Region 0DigipakFull Frame - 1.33Audio: (unspecified) - EnglishAdditional Release Material: Outtakes

THE ART OF WAR is a suspense-filled action thrill ride. Shaw (Wesley Snipes) is part of a top-secret team working for the United Nations, solving crises and helping maintain world peace. On a new mission involving security for a high-stakes trade pact between China and the United States, the Chinese ambassador is assassinated and Shaw is framed for the crime. Shaw must learn who framed him and why--in the process fighting off Chinese Triad gangsters, high-tech assassins, and the FBI. The only people who help Shaw are a beautiful Chinese translator (Marie Matiko) and a skeptical agent (Maury Chaykin). In addition to saving himself, Shaw has to race to keep the trade deal from collapsing and the United Nations from being humiliated and weakened. A tense techno-spy thriller, THE ART OF WAR boasts strong performances from Chaykin and Michael Biehn. Snipes gives a memorable portrayal as Shaw (half James Bond and half Shaft) with his own unique combination of martial arts expertise and secret agent charisma. Filmed largely in Montreal by Canadian director Christian Duguay (SCREAMERS, THE ASSIGNMENT), THE ART OF WAR is an exciting film with good fight sequences and a fast pace.DVD Features:Region 1Snap CaseAnamorphic Widescreen - 2.35Single Side - Dual LayerAudio: Dolby Digital 5.1 - EnglishAdditional Release Material: Trailers - 1.
