Repulsion Catherine Deneuve, Ian Hendry (1965, Voyager, unrated, $99.95) Roman Polanski's English-language debut was conceived as a commercial horror flick, but despite the genre trappings-clutching hands, clinically rendered gore-this glacial portrait of a woman (a young, heart-stoppingly gorgeous Deneuve) descending into madness is art house all the way. On this new letterboxed disc from an all-but-pristine print, director and star reminisce nonstop on a second audio track, and for a change the chatter rarely distracts, since the film is crafted with long stretches of silence. In fact, the duo's dispassionate musings add one more layer of chilly alienation. A -Steve Simels
