Burnt Offerings arrived on Bluray Blu-ray by Kino Lorber featuring two commentary tracks, new interviews and more. The supernatural-horror film stars Karen Black, Oliver Reed, Bette Davis and Burgess Meredith.
The Rocky: Knockout Collection includes Rocky, Rocky II, Rocky III, Rocky IV and the director’s cut, Rocky IV: Rocky vs. Drago. Some of the legacy features were included except for the feature-length documentary…
There Was a Crooked Man debuts on Blu-ray courtesy of the Warner Archive Collection receiving a new video restoration and stars Kirk Douglas, Henry Fonda, Hume Cronyn, Warren Oates and Burgess Meredith.
The Manitou is a ridiculous and just dumb fantasy-horror movie that had some okay performances all things considered, but some laughably bad moments, enough probably making this on the good-bad range.
Sentinel is an uneven yet still creepy supernatural-horror flick with some good performances from a respectable ensemble cast that includes Ava Gardner, Burgess Meredith, Eli Wallach and Christopher Walken. The Blu-ray released by Shout Factory has above average video and audio transfers and a fine selection of bonus material.
State of Grace might not be the most well known drama especially in Sean Penn’s extensive filmography but it is a well done, if not overdrawn, flick worth checking out mainly for the performances especially by Gary Oldman who is at his finest. The Blu-ray released by Twilight Time has sufficient audio/video but is limited in the special features department.
MGM once again goes the well with this now Rocky: Heavyweight Collection which only has a remaster of the first film while the other 4 (Balboa already looks great) are left with old transfers which are nice but nothing notable. Except for a throwaway game, all of the features on the 7th disc have been ported over and placed on the Rocky disc so you’re not going to be missing anything.
