New Release Tuesday

 


Conan the Barbarian- A young boy, Conan, becomes a slave after his parents are killed and tribe destroyed by a savage warlord and sorcerer, Thulsa Doom. When he grows up he becomes a fearless, invincible fighter. Set free, he plots revenge against Thulsa Doom.  The classic action movie that made Arnold a star.  This movie has issues and lots of bad acting but Arnold’s charisma makes you look past those issues.  This soundtrack is one of the best there is.  Glad to see Arrow putting this out.



Thanksgiving- After a Black Friday riot ends in tragedy, a mysterious Thanksgiving-inspired killer terrorizes Plymouth, Massachusetts - the birthplace of the infamous holiday.  How long have we been waiting for this since the fake trailer on the Grindhouse double feature?  Glad to see this finally able to get made and its also nice to see director Eli Roth doing horror again.  



Silent Night- A grieving father enacts his long-awaited revenge against a ruthless gang on Christmas Eve.  Director John Woo is back for some Christmas action!  This could be a good double feature with Die Hard.



Unlawful Entry- A burglar holds a knife to Karen's throat while her husband does nothing. The couple ends up befriending the cop that comes. The friendship ends when the cop beats up the culprit. Karen isn't ready to end it. Things get ugly with the cop.  A great thriller and the late, great Ray Liotta is fantastic at playing an absolute icky, crooked cop.
