Vanguard is a poorly conceived and worse very unentertaining action-thriller where the usually wonderful Jackie Chan seemingly just phoning it in with rather generic fights and really awful CGI work.
Taffin Blu-ray Review
Taffin had some potential to be a pretty cool crime-drama with a beautiful Irish locale, instead the plot is half-baked, acting so-so at best and not even the charismatic Pierce Brosnan couldn’t make it all that interesting.

Lady Sings the Blues Blu-ray Review
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 Blu-ray Review
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 Blu-ray Review
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.
Wrong Turn (2021) Blu-ray Review
Crash isn’t a movie I found all that great though my interest was mainly for some of the controversy and honestly as strange as the “plot” and characters were, it’s not that out of bounds at least nowadays.
Fatale Blu-ray Review
Fatale isn’t a great movie but I can appreciate the pulpy, neo-nourish elements and nice to see Hilary Swank and Michael Ealy who both give solid performances.
Horizon Line Blu-ray Review
Horizon Line has I guess an interesting premise that was stretched too thin for a feature, and there’s not much here that I enjoyed outside of a couple laughably ridiculous but not enough to give this a recommendation.
Fear of Rain Blu-ray Review
Fear of Rain had an interesting concept and if this were some family melodrama, it might’ve worked but throwing in a mystery as an almost side plot, just never quite gelled.
Scooby-Doo: The Sword and the Scoob DVD Review

2020 World Series: Collector’s Edition Blu-ray Review
I’m not a big baseball fan but generally enjoy these releases as at the very least you can avoid the commercials or even just watch highlights.

Shogun’s Joy of Torture Blu-ray Review
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 March 2021 New Releases
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.
Hard to Hold Blu-ray Review
Hard to Hold is a poorly written romance-drama that at least was made somewhat watchable with the nice chemistry between Rick Springfield and Janet Eilber, though that doesn’t mean both give consistent performances.
