Honorable Mentions:

TALES FROM THE CRYPT: THE COMPLETE FOURTH SEASON – July 25th – Because the Crypt Keeper is one funny mofo. And this shit was on HBO, so there’s plenty of violence, bad language and nudity to go around.

INDEDPENDANCE DAY: 10TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION – June 27th – Because your three other copies of ID4 are getting lonely by themselves and they need another one to keep them company.

ULTRAVIOLET – June 27th – Because it should hurt less on the small screen. And Milla Jovovich is hot.

BEYOND THE WALL OF SLEEP – June 6th – Because H.P. Lovecraft was on twisted dude, and this tale stars Tom Savini.

HOSTEL – April 18th – Because Christmas has come earlier than we had originally thought.
