Lady Sings the Blues stars Diana Ross as the incredible singer, Billie Holiday, and arrives on Blu-ray courtesy of Paramount and includes a featurette and a set of deleted scenes.
The Don is Dead may not be top-shelf in the mafia crime-dramas but the performances for the most part were pretty good, headlined by Anthony Quinn, and some so-so suspenseful scenes, it’s just nothing overly memorable.
Runaway Train is a great suspense-thriller and one of the few success stories from the Canon Group, garnering strong reviews and even two Academy Award nominations for Voight and Roberts.

Shogun’s Joy of Torture isn’t a movie for everyone, probably not for me either, as it doesn’t have much substance to offer and forget about much entertainment value.
Severin Films has announced four new releases for March 2021 including Perdita Durango, The Day of the Beast, Nosferatu in Venice and A Scream in the Streets.
