Troma Is Cleaning Up Your Collection with Toxic Crusaders: The Series on Blu-ray December 10th!Kids of the 80s rejoice! Troma is bringing the complete Toxic Crusaders: The Series to Blu-ray in all its animated glory! You can recreate your memories of seeing the animated Toxie on television and then convincing your mom to rent you to the live-action movie with this two-disc collection offering the full series with plenty of bonus features to go around. What's next, a Blu-ray of the Rambo cartoon complete series? The RoboCop cartoon complete series on Blu-ray? I know a lot of people are lamenting a return to '80s culture, but for nostalgia bums, this might be a good thing when something like Troma's Toxic Crusaders: The Series comes to Blu-ray! Newly restored and remastered, this classic slice of '80s cheese will adorn many a Troma fan's collections on December 10th. If all you 40-something-year-olds have been really good this year, maybe Santa will bring it for you for Christmas! Toxic Crusaders: The Series Toxie uses his new powers to clean up the evil and greedy forces that are willing to poison the environment. Dr. Killemoff wants to destroy the Earth with toxic chemicals and radioactive waste, so it resembles his polluted planet Smogula. Toxie isn’t alone in his battle against Dr. Killemoff. Other hideously deformed creatures with superhuman size and strength join up with Toxie to form the Toxic Crusaders. Nozone flew through a hole in the ozone layer and now has powerful sneezes. Major Disaster emerged from a radioactive swamp with the ability to control plants. Headbanger has the heads of the mad scientist Dr. Bender and a singing telegram boy named Fender from an atom smasher accident. Junkyard is a man-dog that merged when lightning hit their toxic sludge covered shelter. Toxie also has the help of his girlfriend Yvonne, who is practically blind without her glasses. Together, the Toxic Crusaders battle against Dr. Killemoff and his evil cohorts to preserve Tromaville. Toxic Crusaders: The Series was made for the whole family. The action appealed to preteens with its environmental message. There are jokes that will make the adults in the room laugh. This is a show for the family that wants to share the Troma experience together. Toxie was voiced by Rodger Bumpass, who is currently voicing the character of SquidwardTentacles on SpongeBob SquarePants. Bumpass did double duty by voicing Dr. Killemoff. Other notable voices in the series belong to Paul Eiding (Ben 10), Ed Gilbert (Tattooed Teenage Alien Fighters from Beverly Hills), Hal Rayle (SWAT Kats: The Radical Squad), John Mariano (The Sewer Czar on The Tick), Kath Soucie (Lola Bunny in Space Jam), Susan Silo (Biker Mice From Mars), and Gregg Berger (Cornfed Pig on Duckman). Two major guest voices were Michael J. Pollard (Bonnie and Clyde) and Chuck McCann (Far Out Space Nuts and Pac-Man). The first episode was written by Chuck Lorre, who went on to create Two and a Half Men, The Big Bang Theory and HBO’s Bookie. Troma’s co-founders, Lloyd Kaufman and Michael Herz, also co-wrote a few scripts too. The bonus features include a new introduction from Troma’s Lloyd Kaufman, commercials for Toxic Crusaders toys, TV spots, lost archival footage, and a documentary on the video game. Toxic Crusaders: The Series includes all 13 episodes on 2 Blu-ray discs. Here's all of the toxic details: Bonus Materials New introduction by Lloyd Kaufman Original Toxic Crusaders toy commercials and TV spots Feature length documentary about the making of the Toxic Crusaders video game from Retroware Long lost archival footage of your favorite mop wielding mutant Bonus cartoons SKU: MVD16262BRFormat: Blu-rayUPC: 760137162629Street Date: 12/10/24PreBook Date: 11/05/24Label: Troma FilmsGenre: AnimationRun Time: 301 minsNumber of Discs: 2Audio: STEREOYear of Production: 1991Region Code: 0Box Lot:Territory: NORTH AMERICALanguage: English Cast & CrewActor: Rodger BumpassActor: Susan BluActor: Paul EidingActor: Ed GilbertActor: John MarianoActor: Gregg BergerActor: Chuck McCannActor: Hal RayleActor: Susan SiloActor: Kath SoucieActor: Michael J.

Born on the 12th of November - HDD's 4K UHD & Blu-ray Shopping GuideThis week is dedicated to mostly catalog releases. This includes both the 4K and Blu-ray categories. There are still some nice releases so don't tuck that wallet away quite yet. Welcome to Volume 5 Episode 24 of our weekly release guide. A look at the highlights of what's coming to disc the week of November 10th - November 16th, as well as a look at announcements from last week. 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Releases- No UK titles to import Monday, and it's catalog titles on Tuesday and that's fine, we need to expand our catalog of 4K upgrades. Shout! Factory kicks it off with one new to the format release, and a once retailer exclusive, now a general release title. New to 4K disc, we can get the war drama Born on the Fourth of July with Tom Cruise. As far as the retailer exclusive becoming a general release, that title would be The Last Unicorn, available as a SteelBook. Arrow Video offers the 2007 sci-fi film, The Invasion, and Elvira: Mistress of the Dark, a comedy horror. Criterion Collection has got a pair of releases this week. Not the successful remake starring Al Pacino, but rather the one that started it all, Scarface (1932). And the 1954 Japanese classic, Seven Samurai. Very hard to believe it has been 50 years, but this week you can get Steven Spielberg's The Sugarland Express. Before we get into the double-dips, let's mention Kino Lorber's offerings this week (maybe). Delayed from a previous date and on track for this week, Gregory Peck and Sophia Loren mystery Arabesque. And the horror film Circus of Horrors. *Note: Both these films are presented in 4K, but with an SDR grading. Paramount is lining up the double-dips this week with three titles; a reprint of the SteelBook for Gladiator, plus Planes, Trains and Automobiles, but this time as a SteelBook, and The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, this time as a standard packaging edition. Import Friday (via Amazon US) has Eyes Without A Face aka Les Yeux Sans Visage from Umbrella Entertainment. Next week, by volume will be the biggest week for 4K this month. No doubt because the week after has Black Friday and the Thanksgiving holiday so you will likely have your spending habits elsewhere. Blu-ray releases- Blu-ray counterparts of the above 4K releases include The Invasion, Scarface (1932) and Circus of Horrors. Before we get to the remainder of the Blu-ray slate, let's remind you that Second Sight's (LIKELY Region B locked) Limited Edition release of The Blair Witch Project comes out on Monday. Also available is the standard edition. Anime highlights this week include Afro Samurai - The Complete Series + Resurrection Movie SteelBook, The Saint's Magic Power is Omnipotent - Season 2, Space Dandy: The Complete Series and Tokyo Revengers: The Complete First Season. Paramount/CBS animated TV on disc, look for Star Trek: Prodigy: Season 2 and Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Season One. Warner Archive this week has The Complete Thin Man Collection (1934-47). Shout! Factory has more Golden harvest action with Golden Harvest Vol. 1: Supernatural Shockers. Australian Import Friday (via Amazon US) this week includes the following: Little Dixie - Australian Import The Adventures of Merlin: The Complete Series - Australian Import Psych: The Movie Collection Psych: The Movie / Pysch 2: Lassie Come Home / Pysch 3: This Is Gus - Australian Import Ozploitation Rarities Volume 2 Standard Edition (Australian Import) Full Moon Fright Box Vol 1: Standard Edition (1991, 1993, 1992, 2010) (Australian Import) TimeCrimes (Australian Import) Notable announcements from last week: Pricing Alert: Prices on those four upcoming 4K Disney+ TV SteelBooks have come down this past week. At launch they were listed at over $75. Now they're close to $50. Shout! Factory has revealed their January slate of titles. Just like Criterion, the volume of titles is less than usual, again, giving our wallets time to recharge post-Christmas. Titles include John Carpenter's Vampires 4K, The Last Voyage of the Demeter 4K, Sanctum 4K and Shaw Brothers Classics: Volume Five on Blu-ray. I will take one of each please. Other studios have been revealing a lot of onesie twosie titles throughout the week and we have updated our release calendar to reflect them. 4K Release Calendar 2K/BD Release Calendar Which titles are you buying this week? Which ones are on your wishlist, be it to buy as an impulse buy or to wait for the right price?Posted Mon Nov 11, 2024 at 06:00 AM PST by: -

BASICS Digital Ownership: November 5, 2024 Digital Rental: November 19, 2024 Running Time: 104 minutes Rated: PG-13 for some strong language and thematic elements ABOUT THE FILM The story of Christopher Reeve is an astonishing rise from unknown actor to iconic movie star, and his definitive portrayal of Clark Kent/Superman set the benchmark for the superhero cinematic universes that dominate cinema today. Reeve portrayed the Man of Steel in four Superman films and played dozens of other roles that displayed his talent and range as an actor, before being injured in a near-fatal horse-riding accident in 1995 that left him paralyzed from the neck down. After becoming a quadriplegic, he became a charismatic leader and activist in the quest to find a cure for spinal cord injuries, as well as a passionate advocate for disability rights and care - all while continuing his career in cinema in front of and behind the camera and dedicating himself to his beloved family. From the directors of McQueen, Ian Bonhôte and Peter Ettedgui, this film includes never-before-seen intimate home movies and an extraordinary trove of personal archive material, as well as the first extended interviews ever filmed with Reeve’s three children about their father, and interviews with the A-list Hollywood actors who were Reeve’s colleagues and friends. The film is a moving and vivid cinematic telling of Reeve’s remarkable story. Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story is produced by Passion Pictures (Searching For Sugar Man, The Territory) and Misfits Entertainment (McQueen, Rising Phoenix). New York-based production studio Words + Pictures financed and also produced the film. Words+Pictures, founded in 2021 by Connor Schell, is led by the creators and producers of the 30 for 30 series, the Emmy Award-winning The Last Dance, and the 2017 Oscar-winning O.J.: Made in America. The film is a presentation of DC Studios, HBO Documentary Films, CNN Films and Words+Pictures. About Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Warner Bros.

Shop HDD's 4K UHD & Blu-ray Shopping Guide, Week of Nov. 5, 2024 - It's Your Civic DutyWe're starting the first week of November and a rather busy release week at that. We have seen so many months of slow starts and ginormous ends that this month is an anomaly indeed. Oh and don't forget to get out and vote. Welcome to Volume 5 Episode 23 of our weekly release guide. A look at the highlights of what's coming to disc the week of November 3rd - November 9th, as well as a look at announcements from last week. 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Releases- UK Import Monday has two interesting releases. One of those deluxe edition StudioCanal Vintage Classics releases first, The Third Man (1949): 75th Anniversary Edition. It's got swag, it's got extras. Sweet looking pack for those of us that like collecting these editions. Continuing with swag editions, 101 Films' version of The Sword and the Sorcerer. Yeah, Shout! Factory did a decent release in the US, but it was a bit more plain in the packaging department. On to Domestic Tuesday, with four New Releases. First up from Warner Bros., M. Night Shyamalan's Trap. Second on the new release docket, a remake of the original, The Crow. Also available as two different SteelBooks, a Walmart Exclusive and an Amazon Exclusive. Third on the list, Kevin Smith's The 4:30 Movie, which the 4K release is only available as an Amazon Exclusive SteelBook. We have seen this configuration in the past with Best Buy Exclusives. And the fourth title is of a category we do not see very often in the 4K New Release calendar, anime feature film One Piece Film Red - Movie. Shout Factory gets multiple delays of titles originally slated for this week, but they do have two SteelBooks, athough the titles themselves are not new to 4K. Those titles are John Carpenter's Escape From New York and Krampus: The Naughty Cut. The delay bug strikes again, wiping two of Kino Lorber's titles off this week's 4K release calendar. Maybe they should just automatically add 2 weeks to any future announcements, just to be safe as it seems to happen a lot. We do see two releases from them this week though, bumped from previous release dates, those would be Fright (1971) and Rules of Engagement. Criterion Collection this week offers 1954's Godzilla. Universal upgrades the 2019 comedy/romance Last Christmas to 4K. Well Go USA makes an appearance with You Gotta Believe, a sports/drama with Luke Wilson. Paramount has TWO movies this week. Starting with war drama We Were Soldiers with Mel Gibson, then the 70th Anniversary Edition classic film White Christmas with Bing Crosby. You've probably heard of this line of special edition releases, and they have been mostly overseas releases. This week though LionsGate offers us a Titans of Cult edition of John Wick, as an Amazon Exclusive. It also features a Dolby Vision grade for the first time too. And last but not least, a somewhat double-dip at that, Warner Bros/MGM offers us The Wizard of Oz as a SteelBook/fat-pack. This package has been done with so many releases of in the UK. We could hope we would get more of these up front, not as double-dips. It's a handsome looking set. On Wednesday, Turbine Medien Group Germany releases FOUR Hellraiser: Judgment skus: Hellraiser: Judgment - Turbine Medien 4K UHD SteelBook Slipcover D Hellraiser: Judgment - Turbine Medien 4K UHD SteelBook Slipcover C Hellraiser: Judgment - Turbine Medien 4K UHD SteelBook Slipcover B Hellraiser: Judgment - Turbine Medien 4K UHD SteelBook Slipcover A Friday, via Amazon US, Imprint Films' Limited Edition of Suspiria (2018) can be yours for the right price. Blu-ray releases- Blu-ray counterparts of the above 4K releases include Trap, The Crow (2024), The 4:30 Movie, Fright (1971), Rules of Engagement and You Gotta Believe. Lionsgate releases the drama thriller 1992. Warner Bros has the Channing Tatum mystery thriller Blink Twice. Peacock Original Melissa McCarthy comedy Genie comes to disc from Universal Pictures. Sony Pictures comedy romance It Ends with Us comes to Blu-ray this week. On the opposite scale, the horror/thriller Afraid. TV on disc this week includes Bluey: Seasons One - Three (Amazon Exclusive), Doctor Who: The Complete Jodie Whittaker Years, from CBS Television and Paramount, I Love Lucy: The Complete Series, Murdoch Mysteries: Season 17 and Orphan Black: Echoes - Season One. Anime highlights include 86: The Complete First Season, Planetes - The Complete Series, Psycho-Pass: Season 1, Psycho-Pass: Season 2, PSYCHO-PASS: Providence - Movie, which also comes as a Limited Edition and The Vexations of a Shut-In Vampire Princess Complete Collection. Friday imports (via Amazon US) include: Abbott & Costello Horror Collection (1948-1955)(Australian Import) The Mummy Collection (1932 – 1944)(AU Import) TV Movie Of The Week: Collection One (1971 / 1972 / 1973) – Imprint Television #12 – 14 Limited Edition The Baron: The Feature Films (1966) – Imprint Television #10 Limited Edition Directed By… Roman Polanski (1992 – 1999) – Imprint Films Limited Edition The Blair Witch Project Collection - Imprint Films Limited Edition (AU Import) Superstition - Imprint Films Limited Edition I vampiri (Lust of the Vampire) - Limited Edition (UK Import) Notable announcements from last week: Seinfeld: The Complete Series is coming to Blu-ray and 4K on December 17th. Per the news article, the 4K release will have the original aspect ratio of 4:3. It was inveitable. Last week we mentioned that LionsGate will be releasing Jackie Brown to 4K after much speculation. This week we also report that Kill Bill: Volume 1 and 2 will be coming to 4K on January 17th. 4K Release Calendar 2K/BD Release Calendar Which titles are you buying this week?

All Treats, No Tricks - HDD's 4K UHD & Blu-ray Shopping Guide, Oct. 29, 2024How did ya do last week? Did you have more will power than I did and keep it under a hundred bucks? Some of those releases could have been released a different week, agreed? As we enter our last week of October and approach November, there is still not much of a reprieve for volume of releases. It's like a one-two punch! Oh and hey, HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Welcome to Volume 5 Episode 22 of our weekly release guide. A look at the highlights of what's coming to disc the week of October 27th - November 2nd, as well as a look at announcements from last week. 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Releases- UK Import Monday begins with Second Sight and their release of Late Night with the Devil. This one comes in one of their well known Limited Edition fat-packs and a Standard Edition as well. I took one for the team and ordered the Limited Edition 4K, so expect a US announcement any time now to replace 1 of the 2 editions you got on blu-ray. StudioCanal releases two Cult Classics titles, previously as SteelBooks, this week as standard case releases, Orca and Red Sun. Domestic Tuesday offer a lot, just no New Releases. Where to begin is often times a challenge but I usually go somewhat alphabetically. Two titles from Paramount this week with A to Z, Addams Family Values and Zodiac. Kino Lorber continues to be plagued with delayed releases, but what we can confirm as coming out this week is Baby Blood (Kino Cult #19). From Warner Bros this week, the 1966 animated classic Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas!. Shout! Factory is up next with a pair of 'Collector's Edition' releases, Drag Me To Hell and Shocker. Not sure if what I am seeing is true, but it is quite possible that both Arrow Video's releases of Trick 'r Treat are Sold Out. There is the Standard Release and the Arrow Store Exclusive release. This one enjoys quite the cult following so it's possible they've already sold through their run. Standard edition Vinegar Syndrome releases this week (via Amazon) include Delirium: Photo of Gioia and Howling II: Your Sister Is A Werewolf. Turbine Medien has the German release of Peter Jackson's The Frighteners as a 4K SteelBook with a street date of Tuesday. Blu-ray releases- Blu-ray counterparts of the above 4K releases? Nope, not this week. But we already got em in the past. Monday UK imports... there are a few interesting ones. Have a look see: Freud's Last Session (UK Import) Bloodbath at the House of Death (1984) (UK Import) Paddington Bear: The Complete Collection (1975-1986) (UK Import Limited Pop Up Edition) Paddington Bear: The Complete Collection (1975-1986) (UK Import) J-Horror Rising - Arrow Video Blu-ray Limited Edition Columbia Horror - Indicator Series Limited Edition (Region B UK Import) El Vampiro: Two Bloodsucking Tales from Mexico - Indicator Series Limited Edition (UK Import) Daiei Gothic: Japanese Ghost Stories - Limited Edition (UK Import) Dogra Magra - Limited Edition (UK Import) A Quiet Place in the Country (UK Import Limited Edition) Domestic releases Tuesday looks a little bit daunting, but just like most months towards the last week, those include Vinegar Syndrome's site exclusive releases. Don't get me wrong, it's still a pretty busy calendar without those titles. And I do encourage you to shop their stuff too. Warner Archive Collection (barring any last minute bumps) is on track to release the following this week; The Beast With Five Fingers (1946), For Your Consideration (2006), A Man Called Shenandoah (1965-1966), The Return of Doctor X (1939), Sweethearts and The Walking Dead (1936). Anime highlights this week include The Ancient Magus' Bride - Season Two, Part Two, The Executioner and Her Way of Life Complete Collection (Premium Box Set), Level 1, Demon Lord and One Room Hero - Complete Collection, One Piece Film: Gold - Movie and a Crunchyroll Store exclusive title with a Thursday release date, Macross Plus - Movie + OVA: Ultimate Edition. Collectors of Kino Cult Series can look for #18, The Classic Ghosts this week. And if you have been collecting the Film Noir series, here is the next one, Film Noir: The Dark Side of Cinema XXII. Honorable mention, because, just because doped out animals are now hip. This time, look for Crackcoon. Wednesday import releases, a couple of 3D Turbine Medien titles and a few titles from down under. Dolittle - Turbine Collector's Series 3D Blu-ray (German Import) Migration - Turbine Collector's Series 3D Blu-ray (German Import) Mission: Impossible - Fallout - Turbine Collector's Series 3D Blu-ray (German Import) Abbott and Costello Horror Collection (1948 – 1955) – Limited Edition 3D Lenticular Hardcase + Art Cards (Australian Import) The Mummy Collection (1932 – 1944) – Limited Edition 3D Lenticular Hardcase + Art Cards (Australian Import) The Antichrist (1974) - Imprint Films Limited Edition Death Valley (1982) - Imprint Films Limited Edition Notable announcements from last week: Arrow Video has announced their January 2025 titles. In the US, Canada and the UK, look for The Cell on Blu-ray and 4K, Incubus on Blu-ray and 4K, Inglourious Basterds on Blu-ray and 4K, Rampo Noir on Blu-ray, in the UK only, The Gift on Blu-ray and 4K (The US is getting a release from Shout Factory), and The Usual Suspects on Blu-ray and 4K (Kino Lorber did a 4K in the US). LionsGate is finally giving us Jackie Brown in 4K in January 2025. Disney is releasing four more Disney+ TV show seasons to 4K SteelBook, and this go round it looks like we are getting Dolby Vision on the disc to boot!

Might Need a Second Mortgage - HDD's 4K UHD & Blu-ray Shopping Guide, Oct. 22, 2024That October air is definitely getting more crisp by the day. Yeah I know, some regions still seeing 100 degree heat, but hey, it's not 115. Compared to last week, there is definitely an uptick in volume of titles, both 4K and blu-ray. If you are like me and 'must have' every major 4K release, ya might wanna take out a second mortgage. Or switch over to Ramen for the three months. Maybe this picture is more appropriate for the week... (Bing AI) Welcome to Volume 5 Episode 21 of our weekly release guide. A look at the highlights of what's coming to disc the week of October 20th - October 26th, as well as a look at announcements from last week. 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Releases- Import Monday has definitely got a handful to choose from. Again it's one of those things, do you pounce at the opportunity or do you wait and hope a domestic release is coming? When you think classic cinema, you might think The African Queen when you list your top 10. This one is from StudioCanal's Vintage Classics label. It's a major enough title that one would imagine a domestic 4K would be coming. Maybe? Did you pass on Turbine Medien's German release or Barb Wire? Here is a more basic UK release that might entice a purchase. The final title of UK Import Monday is something you might already have recently acquired as part of a box set. Referring to the action/thriller Breakdown. The box set I was referring to was Paramount Scares Volume 2. You might need to dig deep into that wallet for Domestic Release Tuesday, there a a few great releases this week. There are three big title New Releases this week. For many, it's all about Deadpool & Wolverine. Here's a rundown of the three editions being offered. There is the Standard Edition, the Deadpool SteelBook edition and the Wolverine SteelBook edition. Both SteelBooks seem unavailable to order at press time, even with the $55 each price tag they sold out fast. Whether Amazon adds more or whether you need to seek other avenues, that is the question. If you buy all three at a retail outlet, this is a $130 movie. I myself might enjoy a Deadpool or Wolverine film, but I think I might enjoy Twisters just a wee bit more. This one comes in a Standard Edition and a somewhat snazzy looking Walmart Exclusive SteelBook. And the third new release title this week would be Borderlands from LionsGate. With three options to pick from, a Standard Edition, a Walmart Exclusive SteelBook, and an Amazon Exclusive SteelBook. From Sony Pictures, a long awaited release of Columbia Classics 4K Ultra HD Collection: Volume 5. Keep buying them, they will keep making them. Simple Satisfaction, right? Under the Paramount Presents label, Ghost finally gets that 4K release so many have been waiting for. Unchained Melody is such the perfect song for this film. Criterion Collection this week offers the dark comedy Gummo. Not really sure if these next two titles from Hollywood/Touchstone Pictures (Disney) puts us one step closer to one of my favorite popcorn action movie Armageddon getting a 4K release or if it is just in time for the Halloween season, referring to M. Night Shyamalan's The Sixth Sense and Signs. Thank me for this one, I took a hit for the team and imported the UK set under the premise that a US set would never materialize, referring to Hellraiser: Quartet of Torment from Arrow Video. There is also an Arrow Video store exclusive available as well. Shout! Factory has a pair of releases this week, Death Becomes Her and The Wolfman (2010). Warner Bros this week is offering several movie-only (no digital codes included) releases of The Hitcher, The Intern, Tag and Vacation (2015). These releases are likely small batch MOD type titles and would not be released any other way. Kino Classics has German silent cinema The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari available this week. More Tinto Brass from Cult Epics with Cheeky! The limited edition variants are very limited and only available via their direct site. In the, still not really sure it will release category, the Ultimate Edition of Caligula. Indicators are saying we might be at the end of our wait. Blu-ray releases- Blu-ray counterparts of the above 4K releases include the UK import of The African Queen (potentially region B locked), Deadpool & Wolverine, also with a Walmart Exclusive edition, Twisters (which also has a double-feature available), Borderlands, Gummo, The Hitcher, Hellraiser: Quartet of Torment and Cheeky!. From Janus Contemporaries, the drama About Dry Grasses. Anime highlights include Afro Samurai: Resurrection, Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War: Part 2, which also comes as a Limited Edition, GOBLIN SLAYER - Season 2, The Most Heretical Last Boss Queen: From Villainess to Savior - Complete Collection and Outlaw Star - The Complete Series. TV on disc this week includes Doctor Who (David Tenant): Complete Series 1-4 and Veep: The Complete Series. Collectors of Kino's Cult Series discs can get #17 in the series, Hussy. Yes, this one was previously released, as a Twilight Time title. Australian Import Friday (via Amazon US) includes: Under the Dome: The Complete Series (Australian Import) Doppelganger (Australian Import) From Dusk Till Dawn: The Complete Series (Australian Import) As Good As It Gets - Imprint Films Standard Edition Notable announcements from last week: In another "you're welcome" moment because I had recently bought the blu-ray, White Christmas is getting a 4K upgrade as it celebrate's its 70th anniversary.

KNOCK ON WOOD! Hard Wood: The Adult Features of Ed Wood Blu-ray Set Available for Pre-Order at SeverinSeverin is preparing to release a Blu-ray boxed set of Ed Wood's adult films on December 3. Pre-Orders are available on the Severin website. The Blu-ray collection includes "3 films written/directed by Wood, a Wood-scripted bonus movie, plus 7+ hours of bonus materials featuring Bobcat Goldthwait, Dana Gould, Jonathan Ross & more."

Uschi Digard stars in THE ONLY HOUSE IN TOWN, a softcore saga of nonsensical dialog and orgiastic depravity. Wood’s bizarre final film, the thought lost THE YOUNG MARRIEDS, is presented in hard and its never-before-seen soft versions. As a Bonus, J. Pat O’Malley and William Schallert star in the Wood-penned hicksploitation rarity SHOTGUN WEDDING, plus over 7 hours of Special Features that include three separate audio commentaries, a conversation with Bobcat Goldthwait and Dana Gould produced exclusively for this collection, the North American disc debut of The Incredibly Strange Film Show – Ed Wood Jr., plus 9 vintage sex loops and much more.

1, 2, Gonna Shop HDD's Guide (4K UHD & Blu-ray - Oct. 15, 2024) - 3, 4, Click Buy-It-Now, 5, 6, Wait For U-P-SOne, two, Freddy's coming for you. Three, four, Better lock your door. Five, six, grab a crucifix. Seven, eight, Gonna stay up late. Nine, ten, Never sleep again. (Now reread the title above in that key.) Hey just think, we are in the middle of the month already and Halloween is just a couple of weeks away. The volume of discs is somewhat steady, so there is plenty to ponder here. Welcome to Volume 5 Episode 20 of our weekly release guide. A look at the highlights of what's coming to disc the week of October 13th - October 19th, as well as a look at announcements from last week. 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Releases- There are no UK imports posted for Monday, and no actual "new" releases on Domestic Tuesday. Let's get this party started. The closest thing to a new release is Eli Roth's horror Thanksgiving, which comes to us in a limited edition SteelBook. I was in the crowd yelling "Where's the 4K?" when this came out on blu-ray last January, and importing a 4K was odd for this one, the imports were region locked. Here we are finally, a 4K for the US market. Overseas customers might want to wait in case this one is locked as well. Staying with Sony for the moment, 1999's comedy American Movie also comes out this week. Note: It is a Sony Pictures Classics release, meaning no digital code. The beginning of a franchise with Wes Craven's A Nightmare on Elm Street. Also available as a SteelBook Edition too. And of course, as to be expected, a swaggier UK release would have been on our Monday UK Imports calendar, buuuut you cannot buy it from the usual sites such as Amazon UK. Paramount is next with a Paramount Presents line title, well known director, Alfred Hitchcock Classic To Catch a Thief. Oh, and two other well known people you might know, Grace Kelly and Cary Grant. Is this considered a too-soon double-dip? The Ring (2002) gets a new Standard Release as well as a Limited SteelBook release from Paramount as well. Yeah, you probably just got the 3-film set from Shout! Factory. And speaking of Shout! Factory, George Romero's Land of the Dead gets a Collector's Edition release this week. After being delayed from last month, Kino Lorber brings us a pair of releases, Brick and Cowboys & Aliens. Criterion's appearance on the calendar this week is to bring us Japanese horror Demon Pond. Dark Sky Selects has an over the top The Texas Chain Saw Massacre - 50th Anniversary Limited Edition available this week as well. As specialty swag editions go, this one ranks right up there! And the final domestic release that may or may not be out this week, The Project A Collection. This one at one point was tentatively set for early in the year and saw its street date bump multiple times. Blu-ray releases- Blu-ray counterparts of the above 4K releases include Demon Pond from Criterion and The Project A Collection (maybe) from 88 Films. Criterion Collection this week also has the 1929 drama/thriller Pandora's Box. TV on disc this week, look for Babylon Berlin: Season 4 (German language), The Crown: The Complete Series and Fear the Walking Dead: The Complete Collection. Anime highlights include NieR:Automata Ver1.1a - Volume 1, One Piece - Collection 35 and Vinland Saga - Season 2 Part 2. Sony Pictures Classics has a title in the blu-ray category as well, this week the crime/thriller Nine Queens. Notable announcements from last week: The Crow (2024) has been officially announced for blu-ray and 4K releases on November 5th. Joker: Folie à Deux will be released to disc on December 17th. Warner Archive Collection's November Lineup has been announced. Check it out. 4K Release Calendar 2K/BD Release Calendar Which titles are you buying this week?
