While An American Werewolf in London wasn’t quite the cult classic some feel it is, but it is quite entertaining experience with a good performance from David Naughton alongside some respectable make-up and special effects.

On the 3rd Day is a supernatural-horror film coming out of Argentina and stars Mariana Anghileri and Gerardo Romano. The Blu-ray is available from Shout Factory on March 29th.
The Godfather Trilogy is another (almost) great set from Paramount with a plethora of bonus features and excellent video and audio transfers. My only qualm is, like the DVD set, they’ve gone back to the cardboard digi-pak which means you’re SOL if any of them get damaged.
Shooter is a film that works with Mark Wahlberg’s strengths as an action hero and combined with the fine direction by Antoine Fuqua makes this worth checking out if you hadn’t already in the 15 years since the release.
The Great Caruso debuts on Blu-ray through the Warner Archive Collection program featuring a new 1080p transfer, a documentary and trailer.
The Matrix Resurrections is far from terrible and it’s not the worst amongst the sequels, but it can’t recapture the magic of the original, however I did like the movie whenever Reeves and Moss were onscreen together.

After some much delay, I have updated the 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray release calendar. If you see any glaring omissions, please comment here. And it would be greatly helpful if you plan on purchasing any title from Amazon, as I receive a small commission which helps keep the lights on as it were.
House of Gucci is hardly a bad movie but it is unnecessarily long and I personally found the Italian accents from most of the cast to be a bit cartoonish, and I don’t believe that was Ridley Scott’s intention.
Knights Templar and the Freemasons include four TV specials: Knights Templar: Rise and Fall, Legend of the Grail, Illuminati: The Grand Illusion and Angels, Demons and Freemasons.

Supergirl: The Complete Sixth Season is the final year of the CW series starring Melissa Benoist, Chyler Leigh, Katie McGrath and David Harewood.

Shattered is a forgettable suspense-thriller although I did think both Cameron Monaghan and newcomer Lilly Krug were decent enough in the leads and maybe this is worth a watch when it’s available for free down the line.
Love Affair is the 1939 romantic-drama that pre-dated An Affair to Remember which is better known by most. This version stars Irene Dunne and Charles Boyer and the Blu-ray receives a much needed new video and audio transfers.
