Classic Film/New Blu

Liquid Sky (1982)

Serdar Yegulalp
May 4, 2018
Classic Film/New Blu
Many of the other strategies Liquid Sky used to be confrontational and novel have aged, some better than others.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)

Raul Reyes
June 8, 2016
Classic Film/New Blu, DVD/Blu-ray, Movies, Reviews
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is truly special. It is deserving of multiple viewings in any and every format available.

Eraserhead (1977)

Eraserhead is best seen, not described.

Akira (1988): 25th Anniversary Edition

Adam Barraclough
July 17, 2014
Classic Film/New Blu, Movies, Reviews
It quickly became one of the most important pieces of visual media in my life.

The Visitor (1979)

Paul Brian McCoy
March 26, 2014
Classic Film/New Blu, DVD/Blu-ray, Movies, Reviews
As soon as I saw Franco Nero's beautiful blue eyes peering out from beneath his golden Space Jesus locks I knew that this movie was going to do something weird to my head.

The Howling (1981)

Adam Barraclough
February 17, 2014
Classic Film/New Blu, DVD/Blu-ray, Movies, Reviews
The Howling is a film that declares its intentions immediately.

Day of the Dead (1985)

Adam Barraclough
November 8, 2013
Classic Film/New Blu, DVD/Blu-ray, Movies, Reviews, Zombies 101
Day of the Dead is often seen as the black sheep of George A. Romero’s original zombie trilogy. For fans and the hardcore however, Day of the Dead may be the best of the bunch.

The Burning (1981)

Adam Barraclough
October 25, 2013
Classic Film/New Blu, Columns, DVD/Blu-ray, Movies, Reviews
In an alternate universe very much like our own, few people have ever heard of Jason Voorhees but everybody knows horribly burned summer camp killer Cropsy!

The Funhouse (1981)

Adam Barraclough
October 18, 2013
Classic Film/New Blu, Columns, DVD/Blu-ray, Movies, Reviews
On paper, it sounds like any number of such films that flourished in the late 70’s-early-80’s slasher boom. In execution, there’s a reason why it’s still remembered today.

Lifeforce (1985)

Adam Barraclough
October 11, 2013
Classic Film/New Blu, DVD/Blu-ray, Movies, Reviews
I’ve always considered Lifeforce to be a genre-fan’s slam dunk: written by Dan O’Bannon (Alien, The Return of the Living Dead) and directed by Tobe Hooper (Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Poltergeist).

Riddick Collection

Adam Barraclough
September 5, 2013
Classic Film/New Blu, DVD/Blu-ray, Movies, Reviews
If you own DVD copies of these films, you’re likely already enough of a fan to want to convert to Blu-Ray.

Blue Velvet (1986)

Paul Brian McCoy
November 20, 2011
Classic Film/New Blu, Columns, DVD/Blu-ray, Movies, Reviews
The film is all about abuse, sex, violence, corruption, and every naughty thing you ever thought might be happening behind the closed doors of small town America.

Pulp Fiction (1994)

Paul Brian McCoy
October 29, 2011
Classic Film/New Blu, Columns, DVD/Blu-ray, Movies, Reviews
I don't know that I can really give an unbiased review of this Blu-ray release. Pulp Fiction is one of my absolute favorite films of all time, partially because Writer/Director Quentin Tarantino burst onto...
