First Batman and now this!

BC gives Shout! Factory's new Scream Factory horror and sci-fi DVD series its due.

Quality test some pot brownies in this deleted scene from the stoner comedy, now on home video.

New is not always improved. For many films, re-released on DVD with ill-advised new covers, new is actually pretty ghastly. See some of the worst new DVD covers for re-released movies ever.

Devin’s favorite movie of 2011 is coming to Blu and DVD on October 25th. Details here!

Welcome to Badass Digest’s week-long Steven Soderbergh career retrospective.

Why has the HALLOWEEN series been so massively disrespected on home video?

More Kubrick and Polanski join the Collection, along with a great modern Korean film. They pay tribute to Jean Vigo and Koreyoshi Kurahara with a pair of box sets. Cocteau’s Orpheus, Battle of Algiers, and If… get Blu-ray upgrades. Read on for more details.

In May, Criterion is bringing us three more new titles paired with four Blu-ray upgrades, and one of the more eclectic mixes they’ve done in a while.

Next Tuesday, a company you’ve probably never heard of (I know I hadn’t) is putting Orson Welles’ THE STRANGER out in a Blu-ray/DVD combo pack that costs more than two bucks. This is a very good thing.

Get the old edition while it’s cheap (if you want it).

Tomorrow (January 4) sees the release of CATFISH on DVD & Blu-ray. There is one extra on the disc, and it refers to others that could have been…but weren’t. It says something when I doubt the non-Banksy documentary more than the Banksy documentary.
