4K UHD Review: Black Phone 2 (Collector’s Edition)
Ethan Hawke is back as The Grabber in director Scott Derrickson’s Black Phone 2. New to 4K UHD from Universal Pictures. The Film Black Phone 2 is one of those rare instances where a sequel outdoes its predecessor in every way. The mythos are deeper, the story more resonant, the stakes higher, the horror more effective. Director Scott Dirreckson and company have set up a new Horror Franchise with the kind of care and reverence for character rarely seen in horror or franchise filmmaking.

Blu-Ray Review: Radiance Films’ O.C. and StiggsÂ
The Robert Altman High School Cult Comedy O.C. and Stiggs makes its Blu-ray debut thanks to Radiance Films.  The Film There really wasn’t a genre that Robert Altman didn’t touch. Including the 80’s High School Comedy made so famous by John Hughes. Unlike Hughes, Altman’s film was so radically punk rock and by that definition anti-authoritarian that it went sight unseen (for the most part) during the 80s.

4K UHD Review: Arrow Films’ Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Trilogy (Limited Edition)Â
Turtle Power!!! The original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles trilogy comes to 4K UHD in a beautiful new box set from Arrow Video. The Film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Is it sacrilege to say that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is quite possibly one of the best comic book adaptations of all time? The Steve Barron-directed action-adventure is as smart an adaptation of a comic book because it both respects the multiple source materials (the blockbuster indie comic created by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird and the very different animated series) while carving out its own original story.

Mads Mikkelsen and Sigourney Weaver star in the delightfully deranged Dust Bunny, the feature film debut from writer/director Bryan Fuller. Writer/director Bryan Fuller has made big swing television.

A family is torn apart in the Anniversary, the new thriller starring Diane Lane and Madeline Brewer.

Komasa has made a film that slowly turns the noose around the shiny veneer of upper-middle-class existence and freedom until it’s left gasping for its final breaths.

From the director of 2021’s enigmatic What Do We See When We Look at the Sky?, Dry Leaf is a contemplative journey through rural Georgia from writer/director Alexandre Koberidze.

4K UHD Review: Blue Underground’s Raw Meat (Special Edition)Â
Gary Sherman’s cult classic cannibal horror film Raw Meat comes to 4K UHD with a flawless restoration from Blue Underground. The Film I’m always surprised by any film directed by Gary Sherman.

Calle Malaga – London Film Festival 2025
A glorious Carmen Maura stars as an older woman who refuses to be dictated to by her daughter when money becomes an issue. Set in the well-established Spanish community of Tangiers, Morocco, Calle Malaga is touching, funny and sad, and gives an older woman agency at the centre of her own story.
