TCM: THE BEGINNING – January 16th
January is the new October. Accompanying SAW III with an October theatrical release, TCM: THE BEGINNING is hitting DVD some 3 months later in both a rated and unrated version. It’s to note that besides a few minutes here and there, and the different covers, the special features are the same for both. Personally, I’m diggin’ the unrated cover, and for a movie like this, why would you want the rated version anyway? Save that Xmas money and watch Leatherface & co. do their thang- I’m sure it’s what grandma really wanted to give ya anyway.
The Goods:
THE GRIM REAPER – January 16th
I can’t tell if this is like FINAL DESTINATION, except with an actual physical Grim Reaper, or if it’s like BILL & TED’S BOGUS JOURNEY, which also featured Mr. Reaper here playing games and getting high. Either way, I’m diggin’ this cover, and I have a feeling a couple of three people probably die in this one as well. Definitely rental worthy, especially if you show up looking for TCM: THE BEGINNING and they’re all out.
EVIL (TO KAKO) – January 30th
A Greek zombie film. That’s all you really had to say, as you don’t really see those too often. I’d trade in some sappy dramas and heart wrenching romantic comedies for an unrated romp of the undead any day. Released through Danger After Dark, so you know it’s gonna be f*cked up, and rockin’ some killer cover art, this is one Toga party you don’t want to miss out on.
The Goods:
NIGHT SKIES – January 23rd – Because that chick from FINAL DESTINATION 2 is in it, and I haven’t seen her in anything else since.
INFERNO – February 27th – Because it’s classic Dario Argento, and the new release will only be available for a limited time- so dig in!
AUTOPSY – February 27th – Because this movie’s f*cked up… and shows you the wonderful inside world of working in a morgue!
