Darkman: Collector’s Edition 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review
Darkman is a cheesy but really fun throwback to the B-movie horror days of Hollywood. Liam Neeson is wonderful and turns in a great performance considering the amount of make-up he had to work under.

2 Days in the Valley Blu-ray Review
2 Days in the Valley isn’t a great interconnected ensemble drama but certainly watchable and at the very least you get to see Charlize Theron in a very early role in her career.
Columbo: Seasons 1-7 Blu-ray Review
Columbo: The Complete Series might not be a homerun as a complete set with the lackluster selection of bonus features, but the transfer is fantastic to go along with the solid audio track, not to mention the show itself which is incredibly entertaining.

The Man in the Iron Mask: Collector’s Edition 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review
The Man in the Iron Mask is a well made adventure film featuring solid performances, namely Gabriel Byrne and Jeremy Irons and fairly impressive for being screenwriter Randall Wallace’s directorial debut, following up with his Academy Award winning screenplay for Braveheart.

Clue: Collector’s Edition 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review
Clue is one of those comedies that have stood the test of time. The actors are so funny and perfectly cast for their respective roles and despite being based on a board game, and as inane/forced as the plot is, it’s reasonably mysterious to go along with the comedy.

Silver Bullet: Collector’s Edition 4K Ultra HD Review
Silver Bullet is by no means a good movie or even all that entertaining, though the acting from Busey and Haim were good and the effects work was fairly impressive considering the time period. I suppose if you’re a super-fan of Stephen King’s works this might hit the right spot.
