Riptide now on DVD

On Tuesday, Warner Classics announced their new releases list and Riptide is one of them.

I love how the Warner site describes the story: Can an Insect Man and a Lady Sky Bug find happiness together?

Nope.

Yeah, it's that weird. Riptide has always had an odd vibe for me. I think it's the combination of the insect costume scene and Herbert Marshall.

Go out and support Warner Classics & Bob & buy a copy.

I know the feeling Carrie. I saw this movie for the first time the other day. The insect costume scenes were absurd, but who in there right mind would turn down Bob for Herbert Marshall? Even a drunken, silly Bob. Even impaired, he's adoreable. LOL

haven't seen this movie for a while now, I'll definitely be picking up a copy - and yes, the insect costumes are bizarre,, but Norma Shearer must be given credit for somehow managing to remain incredibly alluring dressed like that
