The Secrets of Isis BCI continues releasing Saturday morning classics from the Filmation studio and Secrets of Isis is one of the most anticipated DVD sets from that massive catalog. No wonder it's one of the hottest selling DVDs on Amazon right now. I was a big fan of Shazam which preceded Isis by a year on Saturdays in the mid-'70s. Shazam hasn't found it's way to DVD yet but The Secrets of Isis - The Complete Series is the next best thing. The Secrets of Isis stars Joanna Cameron as Andrea Thomas (Mighty Isis), with Brain Cutler as Rick Mason, Joanna Pang as Cindy Lee, and Ronalda Douglas as Rennie Carrol. Even Captain Marvel himself pops up to help, remember they shared a show together with The Shazam / Isis Hour for two years. Many believe Isis was the best live-action superhero program of the era (I rate it second, right behind Shazam) but there's no doubt, with a soaring sense of wonder that delivers genuine thrills and chills, it'll be great for your kids. Or get it for yourself, for the nostalgia appeal. Sure, Isis harkens back to a simpler time, but that part of the appeal. As is the custom with BCI, the extras are plentiful. There's an audio commentary track for one episode and new cast interviews along with a plethora of other great features including a bonus episode of the animated series Freedom Force starring Isis. I'm looking forward to more Filmation classics from BCI (the Archies / Josie and the Pussycats / Sabrina shows are coming soon under a different distributor, sadly without the abundance of extras BCI has spoiled us with - see below). The Secrets of Isis - The Complete Series soars onto DVD on July 24th and will enchant you with the following special features: * Spotlight Interviews (two hours) with cast members and crew from "The Secrets of Isis": Producers Lou Scheimer and Richard M. Rosenbloom, stars Brian Cutler, Joanna Pang and Ronalda Douglas, writers David Dworski, Michael Reaves and David Wise, designer Bob Kline and Assistant Director Henry J. Lange Jr. * Audio Commentary Track for "Dreams of Flight" with Richard M. Rosenbloom, David Dworski and Henry J. Lange, Jr. Hosted by Andy Mangels * Rare Footage: Morals, Commercial Bumpers and Alternate Credits * Isolated Music And Effects Track for some episodes * Three Extensive Photo Galleries from "The Secrets of Isis": Promotional Photos, Behind the Scenes Photos, Memorabilia Photos * Bluewater Production's 22 page New "Legend of Isis" Comic Book * Bonus episode of Freedom Force starring Isis: "The Plant Soldiers" * DVD ROM - 22 Scripts and more (PC/MAC compatible) * Booklet with Episode Guide and Trivia * English and Spanish Language Audio Tacks * Ink & Paint Trailers TV on DVD Reviews:
