New Release Tuesday

The sequel to Divergent in which Beatrice Prior must confront her inner demons and continue her fight against a powerful alliance which threatens to tear her society apart with the help from others on her side.  I got to admit Divergent was pretty weak so this better blow my socks off or I may not check out the other forthcoming sequels.  Hunger Games this is not.

A guy's regrets over moving in with his girlfriend are compounded when she dies and comes back as a zombie.  I am not gonna bother looking this up but wasn’t there another movie like this recently?  Anyway I don’t care because this one is directed by the great Joe Dante (Gremlins, The Howling) who will certainly give this little horror comedy a lot of heart.  Sadly I do not see a blu ray release of this title.

A hapless store clerk must foil criminals to save the life of the man who, miniaturized in a secret experiment, was accidentally injected into him.  This 80s flick is also from the great Joe Dante and think Fantastic Voyage here with a lot more fun mixed in it.  Martin Short plays the hero in this with Dennis Quaid playing the miniaturized pilot inside of him.  Yes, inside of him.  This is a real fun flick and Warner Archive brings it to us on blu ray.

The world's greatest killing machine is three times as deadly when a mutated, three-headed, great white shark threatens a cruise ship. As the shark eats its way from one end of the ship to the next, the passengers fight the deadly predator using anything they can find.  Normally I would call this scenario preposterous but if sharks can fly around in tornadoes this is way more plausible. This stars Hollywood’s hardest working man, Machete himself, Danny Trejo.
