Innerspace is a strikingly original comedy that has deservedly gained an audience over the years. The Warner Blu-ray looks and sounds great.
Police Squad! was one of the most original comedies ever aired on television. It only lasted six episodes, but it is still loved by many. The series has received a release on Blu-ray from Paramount.
Piranha is the Roger Corman produced horror-comedy that put director Joe Dante on the map. It still stands on its own merits as a horror film that revels in its absurd premise.
Hollywood Boulevard gave the world directors Joe Dante and Allan Arkush and producer Jon Davison. The film was made on a shoestring budget for Roger Corman in ten days. Scorpion Releasing has done an admirable job to restore the film.
The third film by acclaimed anime filmmaker Satoshi Kon has finally been released on Blu-ray and it looks and sounds fantastic. All four of his films have now received stateside releases.
Waiting for Guffman is an amazingly funny comedy by Christopher Guest. The mockumentary focuses on Corky St. Clair and his attempts to create a Broadway style musical for the small town of Blaine, Missouri.
The Big Fix is a bittersweet detective film with some comedic elements. The film was misunderstood upon its release, but it deserves to be rediscovered.
The Hot Rock is an enjoyable caper film with engaging performances by both Robert Redford and George Segal. Twilight Time have an immaculate transfer for the release.
Shampoo is an off-beat comedy-drama that is as likely to have fans as detractors. I personally am a fan. The Criterion Collection Blu-ray features solid technical specs.
Memoirs of an Invisible Man is an entertaining but somewhat forgettable film that finds John Carpenter and Chevy Chase playing against type to mixed results.
