New Release Tuesday

Proof that drunk pilots do fly better.  Denzel makes anything he is in better but I am most excited about director Robert Zemeckis getting back to live action movies.

I am a sucker for any kind of monster movie and this is no exception.  This was a fun flick to watch the kids.  Only thing that bugged me is that they call Frankenstein's monster Frank.  Frankenstein is the doctor not the monster.

Dark Knight Returns is my favorite comic book and it is about an older Batman coming out of retirement after laying low for ten years.  Batman makes some new enemies and then sees some old ones resurface.  Part of one this was excellent and Peter Weller (Robocop) voicing Batman is perfecting casting.  Can't wait to watch this.

Good lucking cop drama that makes being an LA cop one insane job.

Loved the first two Death Race movies and glad to see the cast from part 2 returning.  I expect lots of great car stunts.

Obvious cash grab from Fox to coincide with Die Hard 5.  I would steer clear of this because it does not even have the R rated cut of Live Free or Die Hard that has been issued on DVD.  I will wait for the ultimate box set that has all 5 movies.

I grew up watching the Duke and this was one of his best movies.  It also features awesome cinematography showing off the hills of Ireland.  Highly recommended.

Scream Factory keeps churning out great old horror movies and this is an early one from the great Wes Craven.  Great art work and loaded with special features.  Can't wait for Phantasm 2 and The Town that Dreaded Sundown later this year.
