(Leonard Buccellato) 6/26/2017 10:19 AM EDT
Vestron Video Collector's Series has been on a serious roll this year and just in time for your summer vacation, they are releasing one from the vault. The oft overlooked, Camilo Vila's The Unholy. Released in the U.S. in April 1988, The Unholy took an overused premise and tried its best to squeeze some originality out of it. Wi... Read More

CHiPs

(Nathan M Rose) 6/23/2017 1:46 PM EDT
In 1977 Eric Estrada and Larry Wilcox were the "coolest cops" on television. CHiPs was a favorite for many and made stars out of the two young actors. As with so many older things these days, an updated version of the show made its way to movie theaters this year and is now coming out on Blu-ray Combo pack. While nothing is usually ... Read More

Table 19

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 6/19/2017 9:03 AM EDT
We've all been there… the dreaded wedding invitation arrives in the mail to the nuptials you aren't sure you should attend and don't know if you really even want to go. Somehow you (or someone else does) convince yourself to RSVP yes and make a plan to head to the joyous occasion. Up until the moment, you step into the reception ... Read More

A United Kingdom

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 6/13/2017 12:01 PM EDT
"True love knows no bounds." It's a statement we hear often in the face of adversity when two people are supposedly "meant to be together". They face insurmountable odds that have to be conquered in order to live "happily ever after". Usually, these type of stories are the relegated to the world of fantasy but ev... Read More

The Vampire Diaries Season 8

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 6/13/2017 8:43 AM EDT
Televisions shows don't always know when their run will end, so often seasons end with the all too familiar cliffhanger that sadly never gets resolved. Occasionally, they find out before the finale is written so they can tie the series up in a nice little bow and not leave fans hanging. Rarely does a show know it will end before the fir...

Beauty and the Beast

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 6/6/2017 10:43 AM EDT
Disney is always trying to reinvent itself; from new attractions at the theme parks to merchandising to their latest animated successes like Frozen and Moana. The same can be said for one of their newest ventures, turning their animated movies into live action films. First, there was Maleficent then Ci... Read More

Aftermath

() 6/6/2017 10:14 AM EDT
Arnold Schwarzenegger got his start in films as an action star. Movies like The Terminator, Predator, and Total Recall showed off his muscles and his ability to brandish a weapon but certainly didn't stretch his acting ability. After a stint as the Governor of California, he is once again back in films and takin... Read More

Bambi

(Jennifer Broderick) 6/6/2017 8:47 AM EDT
Disney has a habit of re-releasing classic movies from videotape to DVD to Blu-ray as they find a way to re-digitalize and/or improve the colors and animation. Bambi's Anniversary Edition is the latest in a long line of classic movies chosen by Disney to be added to its Signature Collection. It's great to see these older films back in... Read More

The Young Pope

(Jennifer Broderick) 6/5/2017 4:42 PM EDT
If you enjoy Dan Brown's books, Tom Hanks in his movies, or any intrigue and conspiracy theories about the Church, Vatican, and the Pope, then HBO's The Young Pope is the show to watch. This new show doesn't have the action scenes that Games of Thrones has or the suspense factor of Westworld, but it has a young pope w... Read More
