Doctor Who: King's Demons & Five Doctors [VHS]

17 reviews
William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton

20th Century Fox, 1997

watch Kings Deamons first -and then- 5 Doctors
For chronology, watch Kings Deamons first then 5 Doctors. Kings Deamons takes place before the 5 Doctors. "Shall we go the the Eye of Orion next, Doctor" Both of these films are some of the Best Dr. Who's you can see. A lot of Peter Davison stories are blighted with wooden acting and weak script, but these are certainly not among those. King's Deamons is very underrated in my opinion and 5 ...

The Most Psychodelic adventure of the 2nd Doctor!
This adventure is a wild ride, first you see the TARDIS explode into oblivion, second a bizzare land in a No Time existence, populated with fantasy characters of books and legends, even a short new Jaime in here! But is a great adventure of the 2nd Doctor, and very Good restoration. This is as close we can get from the atmosphere of the land of the Celestial Toymaker from the first Doctor. A ...

Doctor Who - The Brain of Morbius [VHS]

20th Century Fox, 1995

Space Schlock at its best.
This is an episode I will always have a soft spot for because it not only has a shuffling, half witted Igor-like character with a hook, but also a clear brain cased shuffling Monster Menace with one human arm ... and a CLAW. RAAAAWR. I love hokey horror and space hokem, and this is one of the hokiest and enjoyable contrivances in all of Who ... even with the annoying sub-plot involving the ...

Doctor Who - The Trial of the Time Lord (Limited Edition Boxed Set) [VHS]

So why was Colin Baker fired?
The 5-star rating encompasses the whole Colin Baker era, the most underrated in Dr Who history. Colin Baker has the distinction of being the only Doctor not to leave the show of his own will. In other words, he was fired. Michael Grade, BBC Controller at that time, took it upon himself to order John Nathan-Turner to replace Baker. This was most unfortunate, as Baker brought a fresh, energetic ...

Honey, I shrunk the TARDIS!
It's nice to know that while DVD is taking over the home video market, the BBC is not forgetting it's loyal fans around the world who have been loyaly collecting the VHS tapes since the late 90's. With only 10 or so more to go the rest should be out here in the US by the end of 2004. While the plot of this particular adventure is simplistic, it must be noted that Dr.Who was still intended for ...

The Perfect Period Piece
Wihout a doubt The Talons of Weng-Chiang is one of the best episodes during Tom Baker's seven year tenure on the show and maybe the best during his companionship with Leela. Overall (In My Opinion) it is an all time top-25 episode. To all the haters out there that hated the Victorian-era setting, I must say that it added a realism to the story that totally fascinated me. It is an episode that ...

Doctor Who - Day of the Daleks [VHS]

17 reviews
William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton

BBC Warner, 2000

Briefly...the high points!
Here is one of the top doctors (in my opinion) - Jon Pertwee - in his spendid mixture of impishness, imperiousness, seriousness and all at a slight remove from direct involvement in the ongoing situation. And with a very vivid script for Jo Grant, as well! This episode combines a number of real-life preoccupations with an invasion by Daleks allied with humans while subjugating humans. The good ...

Doctor Who - The Time Meddler [VHS]

William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton

BBC Video, 2003

Slowly plotted, but very worthy.
The plot is straightforward: A historical setting (1066, prelude to the Battle of Hastings.) Vikings, Saxons, and bits of technological incongruities/anachronisms and a big mystery surrounding a devious monk. In premise, this is an exceptional story, especially for 1965. Not only is it the first 'pseudo-historical', it finally pushes "Doctor Who" into doing more than using the TARDIS just to ...

THE LEGEND BEGINS HERE!
On December 28, 1974, Tom Baker assumed the role of the Doctor, following in the footsteps of Jon Pertwee's successful five-year run. "Robot," Baker's first "Doctor Who" serial, is an exciting tale filled with adventure, wit, humor, stellar acting performances and the "bad-taste" visuals effects that would reign supreme in the seven-year tenure of Tom Baker. Baker is very effective in his ...

20th Century Fox, 1997

Chilling return to serious Dr Who adventures.
In the same season as the missed opportunity that was 'Paradise Towers' and the terrible 'Time and the Rani' (the latter being possibly the nadir of the entire 26 years of the Dr Who series), 'Dragonfire' comes as a dramatic and very welcome return to the darker, more sinister Dr Who of old. The plot involves buried treasure, a colony of ice and a legendary firebreathing dragon stalking the ...

Doctor Who - Revenge of the Cybermen [VHS]

William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton

20th Century Fox, 1994

Unfairly Maligned
I base my rating of a story on whether or not I was entertained, and if what I just watched left me with a good feeling. This story accomplishes both. I find it hysterical that critics of Doctor Who stories use lack of realism as an argument, as if someone traveling through space and time in a police box is realistic! Cheap sets? Use your imagination. We all have it; it's just that some of us ...

BBC Video, 2003

Substance over style!
This was my first introduction to Doctor Who when I was a child, and immediately I was hooked. My whole family sat rapt around a 13" black and white television set, watching it on PBS back when you could see the good Doctor for free. Even today, the shoestring special effects don't bother me a bit- they multiply the fun. "Dinosaurs" has a great story you can enjoy, even though it is stretched ...

Great old Doctor Who episode
This is a great old Doctor Who episode that isn't available on DVD at the time of this post. This is a must see episode to understand this doctor.

I am the Master... and you will obey me!
I am the Reviewer, and you will read this. You will read this... you will read this... One year after the events of Spearhead From Space, the Doctor has to deal with the Autons again, because a surviving Nestene energy unit that the Brigadier loaned to a museum has been stolen by his arch-enemy, the Master. The Master, a Time Lord like the Doctor, plans to use the globe and a radio telescope to ...

Doctor Who: Daleks Invasion 1 & 2 [VHS]

39 reviews
William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton

20th Century Fox, 1995

The Darkest Chapter
"The Dalek Invasion of Earth" may very well be the darkest of all Doctor Who episodes. Not because of what happens; but because of when it happens. The atmosphere is one of doom rather than foreboding, which makes it clear before the first action takes place that this is the middle, not the beginning, of the Invasion. The Dalek Invasion is no worse than a hundred other sinister events the ...

Doctor Who - Pyramids of Mars [VHS]

46 reviews
William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton

BBC Warner, 2000

Pyramids of Greatness
Many consider Pyramids of Mars to be all that is good about classic Doctor Who. And many would be very accurate in their evaluation! Pyramids certainly deserves to be ranked at or near the top of the entire Doctor Who run, let alone the Tom Baker era. It features perhaps the most evil villain ever to wreak havoc across the Universe, Sutekh, a representation of a Satan figure. Sutekh is the ...

fan fodder plus.
This 1992 release contains, among other things, interesting unused title sequences and three episodes that exemplify the Pertwee era nicely. Episode 6 of the magnificent "Frontier in Space" is likely the best of those, although episode 7 of the overrated "Inferno" is more popular. I have a few quibbles, though. One, no color print of "The Ambassadors of Death" episode 1? Also, the other ...
