Disney Releases for the Holiday on DVD and Blu-Ray
Disney Home Entertainment has something new for everyone for Holiday Gift Giving
BLACKTHRON, Wild Western on Blu-ray
Blackthorn has arrived on Blu-ray/DVD and I had the opportunity to get hold of a copy to see if the film was better a second time on my big screen HD TV. In addition, the special features may give light on the making of the film I felt was only average at the movie theater.
FRIGHT NIGHT, VG ON 3D BLU-RAY
The scary, suspenseful, gory, shock filled Fright Night is now on 3D Blu-ray /Blu-ray, DVD Digital Download and On-Demand. It’s a frightening flick that takes its toll on those that have a love for the thrills that evil can provide. You don’t have to be Goth to enjoy this dark film, just a sense of humor and a need to feed your bloody thirst for a good horror movie. In 3D you can double the experience.
SEDUCING CHARLIE BARKER, SHARP WITTED CHICK FLICK
Looking for a film that you gals can get together for a laugh, unwind and be yourselves? Try Seducing Charlie Barker a sharp-witted movie involving a modern day romance on the rocks story with fine performances by a very good cast.
LE HAVRE, A Compassionate Indie
One of the better foreign films to be released in the US, Le Havre makes a statement about human rights. I like the way the movie presents the characters, moves the story along and ends on an upbeat note. If you love movies that put some heart into the storyline, then go see Le Havre.
UNDERBELLY: THE TRILOGY, A CRIME THRILLER on DVD
Steamy, sexy, violent and disturbing, Underbelly: The Trilogy has all the things that entertain the male 18+ demographic group. The Australian series is neither cheesy nor trashy, but extremely well made. Based on true events the unrated 3 seasons runs over 1700 minutes in 12 discs.
POINT BLANK, ELECTRIFYING THRILLER ON BLU-RAY
Thrilling, Intriguing and vicious Point Blank keeps the adrenaline pumping with excitement at every turn. A fine cast ably directed by Fred Cavaye puts the film in a league with The Departed. If you like a lot of action with a harrowing storyline then pick up a Blu-ray or DVD.
THE HELP, An Oscar Contender
Now on Blu-ray/DVD The Help hits the street on Tuesday December 6th and it has all the ear-markings of becoming the hottest item of the holiday season. My prediction for this film at the Oscars include nominations for Best Picture, Best Actress, 2 Best Supporting Actress, Costumes and Musical Score.
