Leaders of the Jacobins: The Lives and Legacies of Maximilien Robespierre and Jean-Paul Marat , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 150min
In many ways it is fitting that Maximilien Robespierre (1758-1794) is one of the best known figures of the French Revolution, if not its most famous. The early years of the Revolution were fueled by Enlightenment ideals, seeking the social overthrow of the caste system that gave the royalty and aristocracy decisive advantages over the lower classes. Few were as vocal in their support of Enlightenment ideals as Robespierre, who was heavily versed in Rousseau and Montesquieu, a champion of the bourgeoise, and an advocate of human rights who opposed both slavery and the death penalty. But history remembers the French Revolution in a starkly different way, as the same leaders who sought a more democratic system while out of power devolved into establishing an incredibly repressive tyranny of their own once they acquired it. For that reason, the Reign of Terror became the most memorable aspect of the Revolution, and at the head of it all was Robespierre, whose position on the Committee of Public Safety made him the Reign of Terror's instrumental figure, until he himself became a victim of the Revolution's extremism. ungekürzt.

Decisive Moments in History: The Reign of Terror , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 198min
As one of the seminal social revolutions in human history, the French Revolution holds a unique legacy, especially in the West. The early years of the Revolution were fueled by Enlightenment ideals, seeking the social overthrow of the caste system that gave the royalty and aristocracy decisive advantages over the lower classes. But history remembers the French Revolution in a starkly different way, as the same leaders who sought a more democratic system while out of power devolved into establishing an incredibly repressive tyranny of their own once they acquired it. The height of Republican France's tyranny came during a 10-month period forever known as the Reign of Terror, the most notorious and arguably most memorable part of the French Revolution. One of the first victims of the Reign of Terror was its most famous: former French Queen Marie Antoinette. But Antoinette was followed by thousands more, including everyone from aristocrats to clergy to prostitutes and even instrumental revolutionaries like Danton, Desmoulins, and, most notably, Robespierre. It was Robespierre whose position on the Committee of Public Safety made him the Reign of Terror's instrumental figure until he himself became a victim of it in July 1794. Robespierre's date with the guillotine is often considered the official end of the Reign of Terror, but by then it is estimated that at least 16,000 people were guillotined in that time and possibly 25,000 more were summarily executed across the country. Decisive Moments in History: The Reign of Terror chronicles this instrumental period of the French Revolution, explaining the historical background leading up to it, the seminal moments of the Reign of Terror, and its aftermath and legacy. ungekürzt.

Dr. Terror's House of Horrors
Blu-ray. Five men who board a train as strangers will soon find commonality when joined by a sixth passenger, the mysterious traveler known as Dr. Schreck (Peter Cushing). Watch as their destinies unfold in the chilling and "life"-altering horror-thrill ride, Dr. Terror's House of Horrors. To while away the time, the good doctor offers to read each passenger's Tarot cards. The innocent parlor game has an unexpected conclusion as each reading unfolds on screen as a terrifying vignette (a werewolf on the loose, a vengeful creeping vine, a tale of voodoo, a disembodied hand coming to life, and a vampire story) the results of which are unpredictable and shocking. From director Freddie Francis (The Doctor and The Devils, Dracula Has Risen From The Grave, Tales From The Crypt) and starring horror film royalty Peter Cushing (Horror of Dracula, Evil of Frankenstein) and Christopher Lee (Horror of Dracula, Lord of the Rings), Dr. Terror's House of Horrors features a stellar cast of supporting players including Donald Sutherland (Robert Altman's M.A.S.H., Bernardo Bertolucci's 1900), Max Adrian (Ken Russell's The Devils and The Boyfriend) and Michael Cough (Horror of Dracula, Tim Burton's Batman and Sleepy Hollow).- Shop: odax
