American Ultra - DVD

Revered filmmaker Martin Scorsese directs the story of New York stockbroker Jordan Belfort (Leonardo DiCaprio). from the American dream to corporate greed, Belfort goes from penny stocks and righteousness to IPOs and a life of corruption in the late 80s. Excess success and affluence in his early twenties as founder of the brokerage firm Stratton Oakmont warranted Belfort the title - the Wolf of Wall Street. Money. Power. Women. Drugs. Temptations were for the taking and the threat of authority was irrelevant. For Jordan and his wolf pack, modesty was quickly deemed overrated and more was never enough.

Plagued by horrible visions of violent demises claiming her family, college student Stefani (Kaitlyn Santa Juana) learned the uncanny reason why. As a young woman, her grandmom (Gabrielle Rose) was sole survivor of a mass catastrophe-and a cheated Death is now looking to claim two generations that shouldn't have been. Long-in-the-works return for the fear franchise co-stars Richard Harmon, Owen Patrick Joyner, Teo Briones, Anna Lore, and Tony Todd in his final turn as William Bludworth. 110 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

Master director Quentin Tarantino (PULP FICTION) indulges his inner fan boy by paying homage to his favorite B-movies in DEATH PROOF. Stuntman Mike (Kurt Russell) stalks beautiful women with his deadly vintage car, but when he picks a trio of tough girls (Rosario Dawson, Tracie Thoms, and Zoe Bell), he learns they aren't such easy prey. As with any Tarantino film, there are plenty of nods to pop culture. Most of the scenes are deliberately short on plot development, the dialogue comes thick and fast throughout, and the film stock is often cleverly manipulated to perfectly replicate the B-movie aesthetic. DEATH PROOF was originally released as part of the GRINDHOUSE double feature with Robert Rodriguez's PLANET TERROR.
