This DVD collection provides an assortment of chillers from the legendary British film studio’s late ’50s/early ’60s heyday, including These Are the Damned, Stop Me Before I Kill!, Never Take Candy from a Stranger, Cash on Demand, and Maniac. Kind of sounds like chapter titles for a particularly lurid gay memoir, doesn’t it? But the gayest things in these truly fun rarities are probably Damned’s black leather-clad Teddy Boys and their silly theme song. Sony Pictures Home Entertainment (sonypictures.com).—Jack Varsi
