What makes the eccentric Kolchak even more unique, however, is his nose for the supernatural, a trait that leaves his editor (Simon Oakland) exasperated and the police less than amused.

Merrill leads the 3,000 American volunteers of his 5307th Composite Unit (Provisional), aka 'Merrill's Marauders', behind Japanese lines across Burma to Myitkyina, pushing beyond their limits and fighting pitched battles at every strong-point. :The theatrical trailer included in this DVD release of Merrill’s Marauders, touting its depiction of 'World War II’s most fabulous jungle fighters… (as) they showed the world what the American soldier can do,' makes director Samuel Fuller’s 1962 film sound like jingoistic propaganda, but it’s considerably more than that.

The Killers - Criterion Collection
: :The Killers (1946) This 1946 adaptation of Ernest Hemingway's short story adds well over an hour of new material to the original tale. The reason is, while director Robert Siodmak, star Burt Lancaster, and an outstanding supporting cast are faithful to Hemingway's work, his story only takes up about 15 minutes of screen time. Burt Lancaster plays the doomed man sought by hired guns in a small town. Hemingway's bruisingly concise dialogue makes an early sequence set in a diner quite unnerving, but after the killers dispense with their prey, Siodmak turns to ...
