If a major studio isn’t going to put out notable films of one of our best mainstream blockbuster female directors on 4K Ultra-HD Blu-ray, then have at it boutique labels. Shout Studios, under their Shout Select banner with be putting out Kathryn Bigelow’s iconic actioner Point Break on 4K Ultra-HD Blu-ray on December 5th (I […]
Scream Factory continues to clean up its back catalog of special editions it had on standard Blu-ray and making them 4K Ultra-HD Blu-rays rather quickly. Up for December is the adaptation of Stephen King’s Silver Bullet which they just put out in 2019 (Which I guess was 4 years ago, but that’s before they were […]
The 1970s were not short on films serving as character studies of some of the more ruthless individuals. The anti-heroes as we like to call them. 1978 saw Dustin Hoffman playing an ex-con freshly released from prison who just couldn’t keep away from the people and the life in Straight Time. As heralded as the […]
Continuing my deep dive into the Stephen King 5-Film Collection, I took a look at Silver Bullet. The Gary Busey/Corey Haim led adaptation has its share of fans and also detractors. I hadn’t seen the film before, so it was the obvious next step for me. What I ended up with was one of the […]
We recently lost someone who in my humble movie opinion was a filmmaker who possessed a distinctive style and a definitive movie magic quality – Director Joel Schumacher sadly passed away after a yearlong battle with cancer. Having been a fan of his work since I was a kid, I can honestly say that some […]
Stephen King properties are hot again to adapt to films, but nothing will probably ever compete with 1980s output for both theaters and television. There were many upon many of his works being adapted. Some good, some bad, but all in all an exciting time to be a horror fan or fan of the author’s […]
Stephen King’s masterful werewolf novelette comes alive! On December 17, 2019, SCREAM FACTORY is thrilled to present Stephen King’s SILVER BULLET Collector’s Edition Blu-ray. Directed by Daniel Battias (Homeland, The Wire), SILVER BULLET is Stephen King’s thrilling adaptation of his novelette, CYCLE OF THE WEREWOLF.

As promised after much delay, the annual wishlist is here! I’m actually glad I waited until the end of January to publish it, because in the time between November and now, many past wishlist titles have been announced for this coming year. So, we can scratch them off the list. There are titles that were […]
We’re getting a brand new Predator film in September. We have a new 4K Ultra-HD Blu-ray home video format. Makes too much sense, right? And Fox knows that. Originally, it was thought just the original was coming, but smartly, we’re getting the three Predator outings without a Xenomorph. This is a big deal for the […]
A new year begs for a new category focus and with my massive and comprehensive examination of the Miami Vice: The Complete Series DVD up this week it felt time to head back to the 80’s – welcome to Forgotten Friday Flick! Going back to a decade with seemingly lighter and more out there film […]
Hold onto your donuts! Season 16 of the The Simpsons – the longest-running scripted show in television history – includes all 21 hilarious episodes, tons of meticulously slapped-together special features, plus a veritable who’s who (woo-hoo!) of celebrity guest voices, including Fantasia Barrino, Jason Bateman, Gary Busey, James Caan, Stephen Hawking, Eric Idle, Jane Kaczmarek, […]
Piranha 3DD incorporates the classic elements of the teen horror/exploitation movies of the 1970s, packed with ferocious flesh-eaters, scantily-clad young victims, and bizarre and exciting twists and turns. Whereas Piranha 3D took place on a lake, the 2012 sequel is set at a water park, complete with water slides and a lazy river – the perfect […]
Now tell me…what’s not to like about the cover art image to the left? That’s brilliant marketing if you ask me. On behalf of Anchor Bay Entertainment, we’re excited to announce that the grisly horror creature feature Piranha 3DD will be releasing nationwide on Blu-ray Combo Pack and DVD this summer! Full of flesh-eating fish, […]
Well I did not think I would be writing a review that would come to the defense of Piranha 3D, but its god-awful sequel Piranha 3DD certainly necessitates some attempt to separate the two. While one may scoff at the 2010 horror-remake, that film at least knew how to deliver on almost every level that […]
I’m excited about this news. It’s not because it’s about a sexy female, but because it involves the sequel to one of my favorites from 2010 (see here). Of course I’m talking about the upcoming November release of Piranha 3DD. Katrina Bowden, star of 30 Rock and recently named Esquire Magazine’s 2011 Sexiest Woman Alive, […]
