“Nosferatu in Venice” is a nearly incomprehensible film that was besieged by the antics of actor Klaus Kinski. Severin Films has given the film a great technical presentation and one of the best special feature documentaries we have seen this year.
“The Bloodhound” is a slow paced update on Poe’s classic “The Fall of House of Usher.” Arrow Video have given the film a fan pleasing release on Blu-ray.
With Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday, New Line Cinema took over the Friday the 13th franchise. The results are pretty bizarre. The film was released with a new 2K scan in the deluxe box set from Shout! Factory.
Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan was the final film of the Paramount era. It has moments of greatness, and a unique visual style, but the finale is totally nonsensical. Shout! Factory has released the film in their deluxe box set!
Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood is arguably the weakest of the original series produced by Paramount. That said, it did give the world Kane Hodder as Jason! The film has been released in the Shout! Factory Deluxe Box Set.
Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives finally pushes the series into supernatural territory and makes Jason essentially invincible. The film also veers into the territory of horror comedy under the direction of Tom McLoughlin. It’s a fun film that is one of the least intense entries in the series.
Horror Express is a great over-the-top film from yesteryear starring some of the greatest icons of Hammer Studios and Telly Savalas. The Arrow Video Blu-ray is a huge improvement over the older public domain versions.
The fifth Friday the 13th picks up where Part 4 left off. It’s a bizarre and entertaining sequel. Shout! Factory features the film within their new deluxe box set.
