After getting a taste for blood as children, Hansel (Jeremy Renner) and Gretel (Gemma Arterton) have become the ultimate vigilantes, hell-bent on retribution. Now, unbeknownst to them, Hansel and Gretel have become the hunted, and must face an evil far greater than witches…their past.

Just in case you don’t know where Ninja I & II are, they are actually Enter the Ninja (Ninja I) & Revenge of the Ninja (Ninja II). Ninja III: The Domination is a slice of 80’s cinematic cheese and I’m happy it’s out on Blu-Ray & DVD from Shout! Factory.

A female aerobic instructor is possessed by an evil spirit of a fallen ninja when coming to his aid. The spirit seeks revenge on those who killed him and uses the female instructor’s body to carry out his mission. The only way the spirit will leave the aerobic instructor’s body is through combat with another ninja.

A film that we showed earlier this year at Late Nite Grindhouse finally makes a home in hi-def courtesy of Severin Films.

It has been hailed as amazingly disturbing (Dread Central), extreme and uncompromised (Roger Ebert) and one of the best true crime films ever made (DVD Talk). Now from the punishing mind of writer/producer/director Jim Van Bebber comes his epic of hallucinatory horror like you’ve never seen it before: This is the ultimate account of Charles Manson and his followers, a blood-soaked saga that takes you from their drug-fueled orgies, to their grisly massacres, and into the legacy of depravity that survives today. It is a singular vision of nihilistic evil that remains alarmingly original, unapologetically graphic and shockingly real. These are the most infamous crimes of our time as depicted by one of the most dangerous underground filmmakers of all time. This is THE MANSON FAMILY.

I will always sing the praises of Wayne Kramer’s Running Scared. It is a film that never got the critical praise it deserved and is definitely a film that fits more with previous eras of cult/genre cinema than when it was released. This film is gorgeous to look at and I can only imagine that it looks great on Blu-Ray.

Slick fast-paced and brutally shocking this gritty actioner will jolt your senses like nothing else you’ve ever experienced. Struggling mob hand Joey Gazelle (Paul Walker) finds his life turned inside-out when a “hot” weapon he’s in charge of concealing goes missing. With two mafia families and a team of crooked cops watching his every move Joey sets out on a chilling bloody pursuit maneuvering his way through a horrific web of creeps and criminals praying he can retrieve the gun and make it home to his family — alive.
