There’s no denying the cult popularity of the 1990s teen horror film, The Craft. With a rousing cast of young stars, it was popular back in the days of VHS and continued on to have a “legacy” going beyond probably its own expectations. Now, Blumhouse comes through again with another attempt at cultivating a sequel to a popular, beloved horror film in The Craft: Legacy. Due to the pandemic, a theatrical release really wasn’t in the cards, but it did receive a pretty high profile and well touted digital debut that came with a watch party that took to Twitter pretty well. Now, you’ll be able to own it on Blu-ray juuuuuuuust before Christmas on December 22nd. Sony already has the pre-order link up, which you can use the paid Amazon Associates one in his post to secure yourself a copy.

Ousmane Sembène satirizes the greed and dysfunction of postcolonial Senegalese society in his bitterly ironic second feature, Mandabi, newly restored in 4K. Warren Beatty stars in Alan J.

The hilariously zany classic THE COURT JESTER celebrates its 65th anniversary with a brand-new Blu-ray in the Paramount Presents line, debuting January 26, 2021 from Paramount Home Entertainment. Originally released in 1956, THE COURT JESTER was shot in Paramount’s trademark “VistaVision” widescreen format, capturing a grander scope of information on the film negative. For this new restoration, the original negative was scanned at 6K and one of the “separation masters” was also scanned and recombined with the negative scans to address color fading in the negative. The result is an incredibly vibrant picture that faithfully captures the colors and textures of Edith Head’s sensational costumes and Hal Pariera’s sparkling art direction.
