Paradise Lost - Live Death (DVD)
Named after John Milton's epic poem, death metal group Paradise Lost formed in 1988 in Fairfax, England. The band consisted of Nick Holmes (vocals), Gregor Mackintosh (lead guitar), Aaron Aedy (rhythm guitar), Steve Edmunson (bass), and Matthew Archer (drums). PARADISE LOST- LIVE DEATH follows the group in their early days before signing with Peaceville Records. This release features a concert from November 1989, before the release of the band's self-titled debut. Most of the songs performed at this concert would show up one year later on PARADISE LOST, the album that sprung the band into success.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33

Covers the period from 1965-1971; Produced and released in 1991.Val Kilmer stars as Jim Morrison in Oliver Stone's electrifying profile of the Doors, which takes the group from its inception to its demise with the death of the Lizard King in a Paris hotel room in 1971. In the early days of the group's formation, Morrison is at his most benign; he's just a guy hanging out at the beach writing poetry. But soon the Doors' fame begins to spread--with Morrison as the focus of attention. Capable of an eerily correct vocal imitation of Morrison, Kilmer makes manifest the talent and charisma, as well as the confusion and despair, of the complex man who was the focal point of the group. As Morrisson's drug consumption and erratic behavior increase exponentially, the rest of the band--Ray Manzarek (Kyle McLachalan), John Densmore (Kevin Dillon), and Robby Krieger (Frank Whaley)--begins to grow tired of his late arrivals, the increasing number of cancellations, and the drunken recording sessions requiring infinite retakes. But no one can help Morrison as he spirals downward into an inferno of drugs, alcohol, public obscenity, and depression, bringing the music to an untimely close.Stone's intimate familiarity with SoCal in the 1960s provides the film with a high degree of surface verisimilitude, though the film is as much a tribute to the enduring power of the Doors' music as it is a cautionary tale about the perils of both celebrity and substance abuse.DVD features:Region 1 encoding
