EXAMPLES OF GREAT FILM NOIR NOT ON DVD

99 RIVER STREET

 

HELL'S ISLAND

directed by Phil Karlson

starring John Payne

 

These are two great film noirs by director Phil Karlson starring John Payne; neither film has been released on DVD. This is really puzzling since their earlier collaboration, KANSAS CITY CONFIDENTIAL has received multiple DVD releases and has been shown on TCM. Two other Karlson noir titles, 5 AGAINST THE HOUSE and THE BROTHERS RICO have been announced for release by Sony/Columbia in November 2009.
