New Release Tuesday

The greatest Olympic Wrestling Champion brother team joins Team Foxcatcher led by multimillionaire sponsor John E. du Pont as they train for the 1988 games in Seoul - a union that leads to unlikely circumstances.  A good looking drama as Steve Carell and Channing Tatum make good choices of taking different roles and I commend them for that.

An ancient African prince, turned into a vampire by Dracula himself, finds himself in modern Los Angeles.  Classic cult vampire double pack from Scream Factory so it will look and sound great or shall I say it will be blacktacular!

Walt Longmire is the dedicated and unflappable sheriff of Absaroka County, Wyoming. Widowed only a year, he is a man in psychic repair but buries his pain behind his brave face, unassuming grin and dry wit.  This is a great action drama that A&E foolishly dropped but Net Flix picked it so Longmire lives at least for another season so it can ties up some loose ends left dangling.

The original is often credited with being the first big blockbuster movie and deservedly so as it is one of the best movies ever but these sequels were obvious cash ins and are not that good.  I do have a soft spot for Jaws 3 as I remember seeing that in the theaters in 3D.
