Horse: Fallen Angel 5 (Director's Cut), 437 min

Horse: Fallen Angel 5 is the one we've been waiting for, and oh baby was the wait well worth it. Director Bruce Cam returns to the directing chair after nearly a two-year absence and delivers this peerless, vastly rewarding and absolutely stunning final entry in the iconic Fallen Angel series. One of the first to receive a copy, we literally spent an entire night devouring its contents (8 hours worth) like wolverines on a bender. The moment it lands in your lap you'll understand why. Let's start with the packaging. In a nutshell... it's spectacular. This version is a five-disc set and opens up as a tiered gatefold. Each disc bears a letter of the title, and the slipcase that houses the collection features the title treatment embossed in raised gold-leaf lettering - except for the back cover in which the pentangular "O" of the title treatment is a raised version of the ass-branding that appears in the film. Gluteus maximus indeed. The look of the film is easily the best of director Cam and the Titan team's career. This production is on the level of a small Hollywood film (as the extensive behind-the-scenes footage proves). Absolutely no expense was spared, yet the film has an intensely intimate feel to it that's quite different from the series' others. However, when the titles end and the opening interior night shots of a barn filled with smoke flash across your screen, and the shadowed backlit image of a man in those iconic Fallen Angel wings emerges, shivers of excitement will run through your body's every bone.
