Made for TV: The Crow, Stairway To Heaven



Description:

(1998) This is the complete unreleased tv series. The plot is pretty much the same as the premise of the other Crow films: Exactly one year after his death, rock musician Eric Draven returns to earth in a symbolic and literal leap from the bridge that joins the Land of the Dead and the land of the living. Possessing the mystic powers of The Crow, he is neither living nor dead, searching for a way to right what has been wronged. This was a pretty cool, stylish series.

Draven was given some friends and associates to help in his quest and things were looking good for a second series but, alas, that never happened. Too bad. Very good Picture and Sound from an original broadcast source with menu and chapter stops. Sound/Picture 8.5/10 Complete series on 5 Dvd-rs.

Made for TV: Dr. Strange



Description:
One of the most faithful of the seventies made for TV marvel adaptions - and not even aired in all parts of the country - this pretty decent film was supposed to be the precursor of a new t.v. series but alas it was never picked up. Peter Hooten stars as psychiatrist Stephen Strange, the unaware heir to vast mystical powers which aging sorcerer Lindmer seeks to bestow on him (see, it's his destiny). When the evil Morgan LeFay is sent by an evil demon from another dimension to snuff out the aging sorcerer and begin the takeover of Earth, Linder fends her off as his pupil, Wong, seeks out Strange for his initiation into the mystic arts. Hooten delivers an appealing performance as the good doctor. It's his acting that really sells this adaption-The soundtrack is reminiscent of Goblin's music in Dario Argento films. This is from an original, and needless to say, long out of print vhs copy, so it's a bit soft..I'd say sound/picture 7/10.
