Hitchcock

With any Hitchcock film your pretty much certain to find several things to love so his whole Filmography is pretty much worth collecting.

One of my favourites though aside from the big hitters is Frenzy and shows that even in the penultimate stage of his long career the master was still firing on all cylinders.

Dont want to give to much away if you havent seen it but its an excellent wrong man/serial killer flick packed with loads of trademark Hitch moments, (also the same grotty London vibe as the also excellent Peeping Tom 12 years earlier). As his only R rated movie some of the deaths are very effective, not just in whats seen (the brutal onscreen strangulation) but also what isnt (the famous pan away from the murder out of the house). It has has lots of black comedy, the disposal of the body and any scene with the Inspector Oxford and his ghastly dinners. The Neck Tie Murderer is a fine villian acted like a sinister playboy.

Special mention should go to the trailers, the hitchcock as salesman approach should be given far more credit (much better than clips of the best bits we seem to get now) in producing trailers that are orginal and witty, Frenzy's hitchcock corpse in the thames no exception.

DVD is more than worth a purchase, but then all Hitchcock ones are,
its Hitch Man!!!
