DVD Review THE DEVIL'S BACKBONE (BLU-RAY)  Arguably, Guillermo del Toro's most intimate piece, this film has long-deserved the red carpet treatment that it's been given via this Criterion Collection Blu-ray. Read More... DVD Review WISH YOU WERE HERE  This little-seen, yet fantastic, atmospheric drama is twisty and well-acted. Most importantly, it cuts deep, emotionally, and sticks with you long after its over. Read More... DVD Review ARTHUR NEWMAN (BLU-RAY)  We've seen plenty of romantic comedy road trip movies over the years but this one promises to give us a bit more than usual, thanks to a British flair and fantastic pair of lead actors. Read More... DVD Review AIN'T IN IT FOR MY HEALTH: A FILM ABOUT LEVON HELM (BLU-RAY)  A great documentary is a beautiful thing, and hopefully this film is just that. Documentaries focusing on musicians rarely disappoint, so the odds are certainly in this disc's favor. Read More... DVD Review DRUG WAR (BLU-RAY)  The great director Johnnie To is at it again, taking further into the world of Hong Kong crime, this time focusing on a captured drug manufacturer who must help the police or face execution. Read More... DVD Review THE LADY (BLU-RAY)  On the surface, it's difficult to believe that this is a Luc Besson film. I've repeatedly read over the cover and the booklet inside, and I still don't see anything that suggests Besson's involvement. This mystery, alone, makes this a must-see in my book. Read More... DVD Review A BOY AND HIS DOG (BLU-RAY) COLLECTOR'S EDITION  This futuristic tale starring a young Don Johnson has garnered quite the cult following through the years. Here's hoping Shout! Factory has worked their magic again with their Blu-ray treatment of this nearly 40-year-old film. Read More... DVD Review WELCOME TO THE PUNCH (BLU-RAY)  With a stellar international cast on board, this promises to be an edge-of-your-seat thriller. Here's hoping it actually turns out to be just that. Read More... DVD Review THE ICE STORM (BLU-RAY)  Ang Lee's gripping take on the swinging 70s finally gets The Criterion Collection treatment that it deserves. Taking another look at an incredibly young Tobey Maguire, Elijah Wood, and Katie Holmes are reason enough to revisit this contemporary classic. Read More... DVD Review SWAMP THING (BLU-RAY)  This was one of my favorite childhood movies, and it's still held up as a go-to flick for me through the years. It's been a while since I've seen it, however, so here's hoping I enjoy it just as much today. Read More... DVD Review ELECTRA GLIDE IN BLUE (BLU-RAY)  It's sad that Robert Blake is better remembered for his infamous personal life than his fine acting career. This early 70s film is a prime example of this. Read More... DVD Review THE GIANTS  I'm not a huge fan of coming-of-age films, but when they involve a cult icon like Paul Bartel, they're more than worth a look. Read More... DVD Review RECTIFY  Tons of positive buzz surrounded this TV series' recent premiere, and Anchor Bay has given the show a quick DVD turnaround so those who missed it on the Sundance Channel can watch all six episodes in one sitting. Read More... DVD Review AROUSED  This is a documentary about 16 porn stars...I don't need to say another word. Read More... DVD Review THE SWEENEY (BLU-RAY)  A great group of actors are on board for this story of a London crime fighting force that promises plenty of action. Here's hoping the story behind the special effects and stuntwork is equally as engaging. Read More... DVD Review THINGS TO COME (BLU-RAY)  This collaboration between H.H. Wells and director William Cameron Menzies has been hailed as a science-fiction film like none before or after it. While it's difficult to believe that films haven't at least borrowed from it since its release back in 1936, thanks to The Criterion Collection, I finally get to see for myself. Read More... DVD Review SANSHO THE BAILIFF (BLU-RAY)  This classic film gets the red carpet treatment, courtesy of the best in the business, The Criterion Collection. While I've yet to experience director Kenjo Mizoguchi's legendary movie, this Blu-ray disc is likely the best way to do so. Read More... DVD Review PIERRE ETAIX (BLU-RAY)  I'd honestly never heard of Pierre Etaix prior to learning of this Criterion Collection release, but after hearing him compared to legendary physical comedians Jacques Tati and Jerry Lewis, I can't wait to delve into all eight of the films in this robust, nicely-packaged set. Read More... DVD Review THE BIG PICTURE (BLU-RAY)  Here's hoping the film is as great as its fantastic trailer, and if it, indeed, is, then this will be a tight, exciting thriller that is anything but predictable. Read More... DVD Review JACOB (BLU-RAY)  If there's a subgenre that covers backwoods horror, then this seems to fit squarely within that classification. The only stand-out name in the cast is Michael Biehn, but here's hoping the rest of these actors give us a down and dirty, gory good time. Read More... DVD Review ESCAPE (BLU-RAY)  This could just be the Norwegian, fantasy, Black Plague, action film that we've always been waiting for...or not. What I do know is the cover art couldn't possibly feature a closer look at the lead actor's face, and there are certainly quite a lot of arrows and knives involved. Read More... DVD Review ROLLING THUNDER (BLU-RAY)  Famous for being one of Quentin Tarantino's favorite films, it seems only fitting that this flick makes its way to Blu-ray from the edgy, always-reliable Shout! Factory. I'm really looking forward to what QT loves so much about this. Read More... DVD Review COMMANDO (DIRECTOR'S CUT)  This is Arnold during the peak of his career, meaning a constant mix of bloody action sequences and awesomely horrible one-liners. I'm not sure what extra greatness this "Director's Cut" brings, but here's hoping there's at least something interesting in there. Read More... DVD Review A HAUNTING: THE 2012 SEASON  I haven't exactly heard great things about this show, and it seems awfully derivative of other supernatural reality series, but if it's even the least bit spooky, then I'm definitely on board. Read More... DVD Review BADLANDS (BLU-RAY)  Watching Terrence Malick's early-career classic with a young Sissy Spacek and Martin Sheen never gets old, as there's always some tiny nuance to discover. Now, thanks to The Criterion Collection, the film sports a brand new 4K digital transfer, which is all the excuse I need to explore the film yet again. Read More...
