If you haven't been keeping an eye on the Mondo Digital mainpage, I recommend checking it out. I've recently compiled a rundown of various critics' choices for their favorite DVDs of 2009; writers include myself, Nathaniel Thompson, Stephen Thrower, Shane M. Dallmann, Ian Jane, Jared Auner and Louis Fowler. Several titles make repeat appearances—top discs like Code Red’s Messiah of Evil
, Severin’s Hardware
, Lionsgate’s My Bloody Valentine
and Mondo Vision’s The Important Thing is to Love
should already be part of your collection—but we all get to wax poetically about some unheralded gems like Hanna D.
, Black Magic 2, The Centerfold Girls
and Embodiment of Evil as well. Hopefully you'll find a few items to spend your holiday gift cards on!
We should also soon be restoring a few rosters from past years, too, including our mega 2004 set with a whopping 18 contributors including Pete Tombs, Chris Poggiali, Richard Harland Smith, David Zuzelo and the late (much missed by me) Linn Haynes.
