Forty-six years ago, Batman met the original Prince of Darkness for the first time. It wasn't in the pages of Detective Comics or Batman Magazine as many would think. Strangely, the first epic battle between the two creatures of the night was a 1967 color Filipino film entitled Batman Fights Dracula.
Take a breath before you start feverishly clicking away on Google looking for a link to a torrent of the movie. Unfortunately, Batman Fights Dracula is what Hollywood refers to as a "lost" film. There are no existing copies of it to be found anywhere. At least, no one has located one yet. Who knows what could be in the basement of some old projectionist's house somewhere in the Philippines.
Not much is known about Batman Fights Dracula except what can be found on the only existing promotional piece from the film. A poster features a few shots from the...

The Human Condition (Criterion) Masaki Kobayashi’s epic (574 minutes) adaptation of Junpei Gomikawa’s six-volume novel was originally made and released as three separate films (1959-61), and is rightfully regarded as a landmark of Japanese cinema. Candide-like story of naïve, good-hearted Kaiji (Japanese superstar Tatsuya Nakadai) from labor camp supervisor, to Imperial Army solider, to Soviet Pow, and Kaiji’s struggle to maintain his humanity throughout. Unfolds with the mastery of a great novel, beautifully-shot, and a stunning example of cinematic mastery on the part of its makers. Four-disc set bonuses include: Interview with Kobayashi; Interview with Nakadai; Featurette; Trailer; Essay by critic Philip Kemp. Widescreen. Dolby 3.0 surround.
State Of Play (Universal) Russell Crowe stars as a veteran Washington D.C. political reporter investigating the murder of an aide to a rising congressional star (Ben Affleck), who also happens to be an old friend.
