DVD Review: Invitation (2003) Directed by: Jeff Burton Starring: Rick Kunzi, Johanna Lixey, Tommy Strasz Review By: Richard Romero Upon first glance, Invitation seems like it will end up being another poorly made B movie. Yes, Invitation is a movie made on an extremely low budget and has some obvious surface flaws, but in the [...]

by Richard Romero This week in DVDs offers a mix of horror for the hardest of horror fans and for those just dipping their toes in our bloody waters. There are highs and lows, like every week, but I believe that this week’s collection has a bit of something for everybody to enjoy. The Twilight [...]

Truth is, I didn’t understand [...]

by Britt Hayes Welcome to the final part of our first annual holiday gift guide. I’m going to run things down a little differently in this edition. In the DVD and Blu-ray sections, I’ll start with bargains, move to regular priced items, and then to boxed sets and pricey editions (if any). For books, it’ll [...]

Thirst (2009) Directed by: Park Chan-wook Cast: Song Kang-ho, Kim Ok-bin, Kim Hae-sook, and Shin Ka-hyun Studio: Focus DVD Release Date: November 17, 2009 Review by: Britt Hayes I’m not a huge fan of vampire movies, books, anything; but over the last two years, you might think I was with how much I loved Let [...]

by Britt Hayes Paranormal Activity will be released by Paramount Home Entertainment on December 29th. Looks like Paramount took the advice of some in releasing the film on DVD and Blu before the end of the year. Makes sense fiscally. This is where they’ll really see a surge of cash. The PARANORMAL ACTIVITY DVD is presented in [...]

by Britt Hayes Although it didn’t do as well as expected in theaters (especially with Diablo Cody’s name attached and Megan Fox half-naked), Jennifer’s Body was still a great film. At least I think so. Video ETA says that Fox Home Entertainment is courting a December 29th release date, but this information is not yet [...]

by Britt Hayes Oh hey, look! There’s another remake! And guess what, you guys?!?! It’s going to be in 3-D! While the news of yet another remake should come as no surprise (and if it does, you have more optimism left in your precious head than I), a remake being done in 3-D….well, that’s not [...]

by Britt Hayes Rob Zombie recently took to his Twitter to share with the public, in 140 characters or less, what he’s up to: “Just finished doing the director’s commentary for the DVD of Halloween 2. Love the new cut. This is the real film.” He also previously mentioned that this version is “very different” [...]

by Britt Hayes October has been an insane month for horror releases, for obvious reasons. There have been some great titles, and some awesome surprises, but looking at the grand scope for this month’s releases, I find myself underwhelmed. Here we are in our last week, and I think it’s the best yet: Black Devil [...]

by Britt Hayes We’ve got a slew of releases this week, but don’t get too excited. Some of them are a bit lackluster, to say the least. Blood: The Last Vampire Marc assures me that this film sucks (get it? Shoot me), but that doesn’t stop me from wanting to see it. I watched the [...]

by Britt Hayes Lionsgate is releasing a heap of films on November 24th (in time for Thanksgiving…I guess?), including special editions like My Bloody Valentine: Special Edition, Cujo: 25th Anniversary Edition, and Monster Squad: 20th Anniversary Edition, as well as genre favorite Frailty, the directorial debut of one Mr. Bill Paxton. Frailty stars Matthew McConaughey [...]

by Britt Hayes Sam Raimi’s return to horror releases on DVD and Blu-ray today, starring Alison Lohman and Justin Long. The story follows Christine Brown (Lohman), a loan officer who is charged with evicting a little old woman from her home; unfortunately, the little old woman is really a gypsy and curses Christine to a [...]

by Britt Hayes After a very short turn in independent theaters, Park Chan-Wook’s latest film, Thirst, has gotten a DVD release date: November 17th. Chan-Wook is most noted for his films in the Vengeance trilogy: Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance, Oldboy, and Sympath for Lady Vengeance. If you haven’t seen these films, and you have a [...]
