New Release Tuesday

The battle continues here from home base as the kids are wrapping up school soon and we have got a case of the stupids and adopted a puppy this past week so we are keeping busy and healthy here from home.  Let's take a look and a few of the good titles that have come out the past couple of weeks and let's take a look at Rocky:

The Great Escape- Allied prisoners of war plan for several hundred of their number to escape from a German camp during World War II.  This is still has to be the best escape from prison movie period.  The large scope of this movie and the cast is filled with a who’s who of some of the all-time greats makes it the best.  I have bought this movie many times over on various formats but this is from Criterion so I will upgrade once again and probably for the last time on this classic.  Highly recommended.

Idle Hands- A teenage slacker's right hand becomes possessed with murderous intent.  I have never seen this and it has become quite a cult classic over the years and kind of hard to find but Scream Factory has rectified that for you.  From what I remember this came out around the time of Columbine so it basically got buried with its time sensitive material and did not get noticed until much later.

Justice League Dark: Apokolips War- A Sequel to Justice League Dark (2017) involving Jack Kirby's New Gods.  I enjoy Warner’s Animated DC films quite a bit, sometimes I think they should be running the live action movies.  I picked up the Steel Book for this and will be checking it out tonight.

Creepshow- The fictional Creepshow comic books come to life in this anthology series of terrifying tales hosted by the silent Creepshow ghoul.  Based on the greatest horror anthology so what is not to like?   I really need to get Shudder but I have got more than plenty of things to watch around here and I do not feel the need for another streaming service right now.  I will get around to it.

Evil of Frankenstein- Upon returning to his home village to continue his experimental research, the destitute Dr. Frankenstein revives his old creature, but a hypnotist wants the monster to control for himself.  I love the old Hammer films and I need to revisit this one soon.  Anything with Cushing or Lee is usually pretty good.

Brahms: The Boy 2- After a family moves into the Heelshire Mansion, their young son soon makes friends with a life-like doll called Brahms.  The first one was descent and I did not even realize this sequel had came out theatrically back in February.  I guess that’s what you get for having Katie Holmes in your flick.
