films BATMAN: DEAD END, WORLD'S FINEST, and GRAYSON. Also included is a

BATMAN: DEAD END
This 8-minute
short film, written and directed by filmmaker Sandy Collora, is regarded
by many as the greatest Batman movie ever produced. Stylistically, this
film is like having Bob Kane's, Frank Miller's and Alex Ross' versions of
Batman all rolled into one. Batman faces The Joker, who has just escaped
from Arkham Asylum, and also encounters the "Alien" and
"Predator" creatures in what evolves into a gritty,
action-packed fight scene. Also included is The 15-minute documentary.
THE MAKING OF BATMAN:DEAD END
- This in-depth, behind the scenes feature
includes interviews with the creators and actors, costume design, fight
choreography, special effects, and more.
WORLD'S
FINEST
Filmmaker Sandy Collora's latest offering. A preview-style
masterpiece featuring Superman and Batman, the premise of which has The
Man of Steel and The Dark Knight forming an uneasy alliance to face Lex
Luthor and Two-Face. Collora's knowledge of and dedication to the
characters, combined with his excellent casting, choreography, and
directing, will leave you begging for more. Great action and dialogue
throughout. As in Batman: Dead End, Clark Bartram is Batman with Mike
O'Hearn taking on the role of Superman/Clark Kent. Other characters
featured are Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, and Perry White. Running Time is
3-minutes and 40-seconds.
GRAYSON
Another excellent preview-style
creation, which centers on a retired, thirty-something Dick Grayson who
once again assumes the mantle of Robin to investigate and avenge the
murder of the Batman -- but it won't be easy. Corruption has seemingly
infected Gotham City's highest levels of power and former allies suddenly
become enemies. This fast-paced, dramatic, and action-packed 5-1/2 minute
piece is loaded with finely-casted appearances by characters such as
Superman, Wonder Woman, Batgirl, Green Lantern, The Joker, Catwoman,
Penguin, The Riddler, and former Commissioner James Gordon. Written and
directed by John Fiorella, who makes an excellent Robin.
"PIECES OF THE PUZZLE": THE MAKING OF GRAYSON.-
This behind the scenes feature lets you in on
the secrets of economic film
making. |
