Stars: Sondra Locke, Colleen Camp, Seymour Cassel, Beth Brickell, Ruth Warshawsky | Written by Anthony Overman, Michael Ronald Ross | Directed by Peter S. Traynor

Low-budget exploitation thriller Death Game, which comes from Peter S. Traynor and stars Sondra Locke, Colleen Camp, and Seymour Cassel, blends elements of psychological horror, suspense, and dark comedy. The film, often categorized as an exploitation classic, provides a unique yet disturbing examination of sexual politics, revenge, and moral ambiguity.

The plot revolves around George Manning (Seymour Cassel), a wealthy and seemingly average man whose life takes a dramatic turn when two mysterious young women, Agatha (Sondra Locke) and Donna (Colleen Camp), knock on his door during a rainstorm. After letting them inside for a warm bath and shelter, George finds himself drawn into a dangerous game of seduction, manipulation, and violence.

From 1967-1969, over the course of two seasons, America traveled to the Florida Everglades to embark on family-friendly adventures with the Wedloes. They were an All-American family led by game warden Tom (Dennis Weaver), his wife Ellen (Beth Brickell), and their son Mark (played by, yes, Ron Howard’s younger brother, Clint). While his elder sibling was keeping busy as Opie on The Andy Griffith Show, Clint horsed around with his tame bear, the titular Ben.

The formula was always the same, mirrored in many shows of the time. Something was wrong or a new, always relatively harmless, foe threatened the Everglades and the Wedloes had to restore order with their furry friend. The ‘60s were a boom time for television, from Gilligan and the Brady Bunch to Dick Van Dyke and Bonanza. Somewhere between The Addams family and the Flinstones, Gentle Ben found a home with another family-centric yarn.

Starring acclaimed television and film actors Clint Howard and Dennis Weaver, relive the final season of the classic, family-friendly series when Gentle Ben: Season Two arrives on DVD February 18. Gentle Ben centers on the inspirational relationship between a boy (Howard) and his 650 lb best friend Ben.

Based on the children's novel of the same name, Gentle Ben follows the adventures in the Florida Everglades of a game warden, Tom Wedloe (Weaver), his wife Ellen (Beth Brickell), their son Mark (Howard), and Mark's tame bear Ben. Gentle Ben: Season Two also includes guest appearances from Ron Howard, Rance Howard, NFL football legend Bart Starr and Albert Salmi.
