I’m not sure it was even planned for theatrical release to begin with, but the 2020 musical redress of 1983’s Valley Girl was one of the pandemic lockdowns brand new premium on demand offerings back in May. As a big fan of the original, I didn’t know how to feel about it, but casting Jessica Rothe of Happy Death Day fame in the lead had me at least interested in it. I’m not so sure how it faired money making-wise, but I didn’t notice too much buzz about it when it came out. There was a little chatter over the weekend, but that’s about it. Nevertheless, I found myself curious and when the offer to review it came up, I took the bait. The film is arriving in pretty bare bones fashion. You get the movie with one audio, one subtitle stream and a digital copy code to redeem. That’ really it. Its priced fairly, but you’d hope there’d be more confidence. You can go back to the 80s and have yourself a jam when the film arrives October 5th.
It should be no surprise to anyone that the dynamic duo, hilarious tag team of Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum reprised their respective roles from 2012 in the appropriately titled 22 Jump Street (I’ll expand upon that more down below). I last talked about 21 Jump Street in my Blu-ray review over 
With this year being such a hard one, some cinematic escape is more than welcome and thankfully for horror film fans in Los Angeles there is a little Halloween treat in store. The genre loving geniuses over at Screamfest are proud to present the upcoming 
Here’s a fun addition to the Warner Archive Collection as a sort of primer in the month before the big The Flinstones complete set comes out. Before Space Ghost was an intergalactic talk show host on Adult Swim via Space Ghost: Coast to Coast, he was policing the galaxy in Space Ghost and Dino Boy. Yes, everything with it is stone faced serious as a fun Saturday morning toon for 1960s children, but it retroactively plays almost funny as the intentionally comedied Adult Swim follow up. Its a half hour progame with 2 short Space Ghost adventures and 1 featureing a character called Dino Boy that I personally don’t remember much at all of. This 2-disc set includes every episode from the series’ run and a feature length documentary about the life and career of Alex Toth, the artist who crafted the character of Space Ghost as well as many comic book and Hanna Barbara characters over the years. It arrives on October 13th, but you can pre-order via the paid Amazon Associates link below.
Can you believe it? Even after seeing 21 Jump Street the film years ago I have still never seen the 80’s television show in my 37+ years of living on this land and water filled planet. I’m a virgin there! That’s horrible! I should be dragged down the streets by my long, ugly hair or publicly pelted and stoned in the middle of town square for admitting that, right? Maybe next year that will be a thing. Well whatever capital punishment you decide for me, rest assured I will do my very best to bring justice to this 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray review of the 2012 action comedy of the same name. Ready or not, here I go…

300 was one of those films where I truly didn’t realize how amazing it was with only one viewing under my proverbial belt.

One of the now defunct DC Universe streaming service’s original programming menu included Stargirl, the adaptation of Geoff John’s original creation. Thanks to things like pandemics, Stargirl wound up getting time in the spotlight in the summer on the network that is the home for DC Comics television shows, The CW. No, she’s not multi-versing into the now former Arrowverse at this time, they just needed some content. Now that the run on CW has ended, the show is getting itself a fancy Blu-ray release. And that’s about where that effort stops as this thing comes with the episodes and that’s it. No bonus material available here. However, if you want to truly own the show, then this is it. Stargirl: The Complete First Season arrives on Blu-ray September 29th, which means, you can already order it now and have the set on its way to you.

Academy Award® winner Russell Crowe (2000, Best Actor in a Leading Role, Gladiator) stars alongside Caren Pistorius (Slow West, Mortal Engines, Gloria Bell), Primetime Emmy® nominee Jimmi Simpson (2018, Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series, “Westworld”), and Gabriel Bateman (Playmobil: The Movie, Child’s Play, TV’s “The Dangerous Book for Boys”) in this unpredictable, edge-of-your-seat thrill ride.
Following a seven-year absence, September 29th, 1995, saw the long-awaited return of cinema’s most haunting shape, Michael Myers. For myself, as I’m sure for many other fans, Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers was the first time I had the opportunity to see my favorite bogeyman on the big screen. As strange as the Thorn cult was, seeing Michael and Donald Pleasence’s Dr. Loomis square off for the final time wouldn’t be the biggest impact this film would have on me. As a more common history tells it, the film was ripped to shreds by critics, disappointed greatly at the box office, and didn’t launch Brother Cane into alt-rock stardom. Halloween fans, horror movie lovers, and other knowledgeable film crowds know its greatest legacy lies not on the screen debut of Paul “Steven” Rudd (Okay, Clueless beat it to release, but he shot this first), but from a highly sought after, copied and traded VHS tape featuring an alternative version of the sixth Halloween film known as “The Producer’s Cut.”
The Action-Packed Thrill-Ride TOP GUN Takes Off in a Limited-Edition 4K Ultra HD Steelbook!
One of the most polarizing and impressive filmmakers in all of history is the one Alejandro Jodorowsky. A true artist of the form, his films have proven they have plenty to say and then some. And over the years they evolve, unlock new ideas and grow. To a majority, the reaction is probably to be repulsed by it or turn to their watching partner and say “What the f*ck did I just watch?” No, these aren’t something to watch on a first date, or second, or third or maybe even after marriage. But, if you allow them in and start to see the forest for the trees, there’s a deeper mental exorcise and philosophical enrichment when studying his work. Three of his earlies works and one of his latest are included in this new The Alejandro Jodorowsky Collection arriving on September 18th. Those include Fando y Lis, El Topo, The Holy Mountain and Psychomagic, A Healing Art. All received 4K restorations and new bonus materials (Sans Psychomagic). This set comes packaged with plenty of goodies and is available now.
