Kamikaze (Blu-ray)

From co-writer/producer Luc Besson (La Femme Nikita, Lon: The Professional, The Fifth Element) comes the sharp and sumptuous sci-fi/comedy/thriller Kamikaze. Michel Galabru (Subway) is Albert. Hes old, bored, batty and unemployedbut brilliant with computers. Albert embarks on a mission to get rid of the people he hates mostthe televised kindand invents a way to kill TV announcers, on air, from the comfort of his own home. Police are baffled, but Richard Bohringer (The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover) as Inspector Romain Pascot dedicates himself to the chase. Also starring Dominique Lavanant (Roberto Benignis The Monster), the cult 80s classic Kamikaze bursts with slick widescreen visuals by cinematographer Jean-Franois Robin (LAmour Braque) and pulsing musical soundscapes by composer ric Serra (GoldenEye), complementing the explosive satire on couch-potato culture.
