This week on The Stacks, in part one (0:00-1:19:08) we discuss the 1983 high-fashion giallo Mystère, aka Dagger Eyes, directed by Carlo Vanzina, as well as part two of Sergio Martino's Italo-Twin Peaks-adjacent mystery/giallo TV miniseries Private Crimes. In part two (1:19:09-2:20:55) we talk in shorter format about 8 additional features: the 2025 James Gunn reboot of Superman, Steven Lisberger's 1982 Disney computer adventure Tron, the zany 1977 lo-fi Cheng Hu kung-fu picture Shaolin Invincibles, M. Night Shyamalan's kooky 2015 found footage kid horror The Visit, the 2007 Coen Brothers period crime masterpiece No Country for Old Men, the 1977 Alan J. Pakula political docudrama All the President's Men, James Wan's 2004 slasher franchise starter and directorial debut Saw, and the Coen Brothers' 2010 western remake True Grit. In part three, we talk briefly about the other stuff we've watched since last time, and make our picks for next week.
