This week is fairly light with the genre love, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t a few gems hidden here and there. ATTACK OF THE GIANT LEECHES and it’s phallic cover hits DVD stands, as well as the kick-ass looking MUM & DAD, and the low budgeted and critically acclaimed SCARCE. Also look out for the Blu-ray edition of DOG SOLDIERS, and THE 8TH PLAGUE: SPECIAL EDITION. Happy Cinco de Mayo! Bring on the Tecate and Tequila!
