The latest entertainment news and reviews in 4K UHD, Blu-ray, movies and more…
Last week was the favorite physical media I had to weed down to a short list, this week its the actual films of 2021 to which I must choose a mere 10. As is true in any year, its hard as hell to crack this thing down to 20-30, let alone 10. But, that’s the […]
We’re all ready for the end of another crazy year. It’s mind-blowing to me as I get older just how quickly time passes. Things fleet right past me and I just wonder how things went so fast. Even now, I’m kind of blown away that I purchased and watched nearly 100 4K titles this year. […]

Despite its title, A Ghost Story could never really be mistaken for a horror or thriller, as […]
Written and directed by critically acclaimed filmmaker David Lowery (Pete’s Dragon), and boasting a top-notch cast including Academy Award® winner Casey Affleck (Best Actor, Manchester by the Sea, 2016) and two-time Academy Award®nominee Rooney Mara (Best Supporting Actress, Carol, 2015 and Best Actress, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, 2011), A Ghost Story arrives on Blu-ray™ (plus Digital HD) and DVD October 3 from Lionsgate.
