DVD Review FEMME FATALES: THE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON

I like the premise of this sexy Cinemax anthology quasi-noir series more than I like the actual eps themselves, which is essentially attractive women taking control of various nasty situations, as well as being nude most of the time. They don't call it Skinemax for nothing.

DVD Review COSMOPOLIS (BLU-RAY)

I'm a big fan of David Cronenberg, which makes it doubly hard to admit that Cosmopolis left me dulled and only occasionally attentive. The extras, on the other hand, are fantastic.

DVD Review WOLF LAKE: THE COMPLETE SERIES

Werewolves. Shapeshifters. That is usually enough to get my interest, but the hook for this set complete series set (nine episodes) of a show dropped after just five episodes were broadcast is the inclusion of the unaired pilot, which shows a path the show could have taken and didn't. Could things have been different?

The legendary Stanley Kubrick's first feature film finally makes its way to Blu-ray, after being virtually unseen since it first showed up in theaters back in 1953. The fact that Kino has thrown in a documentary short by Kubrick as well, makes this realease one of the easier purchasing decisions of the year.

DVD Review MY SUCKY TEEN ROMANCE (BLU-RAY)

This one got a lot of buzz because writer/director Emily Hagins was just 17 (or 18 depending on what you read) when it was made. That sort of overshadowed the film itself. Sure, My Sucky Teen Romance is often uneven and amateurish in spots - and shows the limitations of a rookie director without much capital - but if you look through all of that the result shows a fresh, creative filmmaker with a keen eye for the genre and a whole helluva lot of promise.
