Great Movie; Poor Release
on February 17, 2017
Posted by: Rick
Verified Purchase:Yes
"Blair Witch Project" can be a very divisive film; my opinion will not likely sway readers one way or another. My problem with this release is the fact that the studio could not be bothered to do anything more than upscale the original DVD and not offer any significant extras. To be fair, the alternate endings are included, but where is the famous "Sundance Cut" of the film? This is only worthwhile if you enjoyed the film and do not own the previous DVD. Otherwise, this can be summed up as a missed opportunity.

Please Read This Carefully...

I give this SPECIFIC RELEASE 3 stars. The cover art is really the only difference between this version of "Aliens" and the previous release. A digital download IS included, but this isn't a new edition of the film beyond that. Don't purchase this thinking you are buying something new; contents are exactly the same as the previous release. If you don't own this film already, this version will certainly satisfy. Picture quality is the best I've ever seen, and I do own this film in all it's previous versions and formats. Sound also.

In the new season, we see Rick and the group of survivors fostering a thriving community in the safe haven of the prison only to have it short-lived as the group loses everything, their home, family, and friends to the threat of the walkers, outside threats and the hidden dangers brewing inside the fences. The group of survivors are broken apart and sent on divergent paths, unsure of everyone else's fate as they are exposed to new dangers, new enemies, and heartbreaking choices. They will have their faith thoroughly tested - a faith that breaks some of them and redeems others.

Characters Explored
on February 13, 2017
Posted by: Rick
Verified Purchase:Yes
Season 4 can be divisive, but I give it my highest rating because the characters are given more time to develop. The theme of faith in something greater is explored as Rick's group is dealt some of the harshest blows yet. The mid-season finale is one of the show's best, and be warned: it is truly heartbreaking. I would urge people put off by complaints about season four's pace to give it a try; the show reaches new depths of emotion here. Excellent picture and sound quality. A+.

Excellent release for a divisive movie
on July 8, 2016
Posted by: Rick
Verified Purchase:Yes
"Prometheus" will not likely satisfy certain fans looking for something that continues the approach taken for the original "Alien", and the film certainly has flaws in both plot and character development. However, it does open the series of "Alien" films in an intriguing way... and Scott's eye for beautiful visuals can't be denied. The Blu-ray has a nice selection of extras and the picture and sound quality are top-notch. Recommended if you enjoyed the film in it's theatrical run.

`The truth is out there,' and FBI agents Scully and Mulder seek it in this sci-fi phenomenon about their quest to explain the seemingly unexplainable. Their strange cases include UFO sightings, alien abductions and just about anything else paranormal. This release collects every episode from the debut season of The X-Files.

Nice digital clean-up.

X-FILES is finally available on Blu-Ray, and it looks fantastic. The digital clean-up is impressive, the sound is great. One does wish for more extras, but this is a must for X-Philes. Well worth the wait.

Excellent primer for new viewers
on September 29, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
This edition sports top rate picture and sound, but hardcore fans would be better served by the 3-disc edition. More extras, including the "Days Gone By" episode presented in black and white. Still, this edition makes a nice primer for new viewers.

When the world is ravaged by a zombie apocalypse, police officer Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) and a small group of others struggle to stay alive as the dead stalk them at every turn. Can Rick and the others hold onto their humanity as they fight to live in this terrifying new world? And, amidst dire conditions and personal rivalries, will they ultimately survive one another? Based on Robert Kirkman's hugely successful and popular comic book series, AMC's original series THE WALKING DEAD is an epic, edge-of-your-seat drama where personal struggles are magnified against a backdrop of moment-to-moment crisis. A survivalist story at it's core, the series explores how the living are changed by the overwhelming realization that those who survive can be far more dangerous than the mindless walkers roaming the earth. They themselves have become the walking dead.

In this uncertain world, Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) and his band of survivors must not only fight the dead, but also face a whole new fear The living. In this 16 episode season, the series, Rick and his fellow survivors continue to seek refuge in a desolate and post-apocalyptic world and soon discover that there are greater forces to fear than just the walking dead. The struggle to survive has never been so perilous. This season also introduces new characters, including the Governor (David Morrissey) and fan-favorite Michonne (Danai Gurira), along with her zombie pets.

Best possible presentation of no-budget classic
on June 16, 2015
Posted by: Rick
Verified Purchase:Yes
Yes, "Evil Dead" has been issued several times on DVD, but this Blu-ray sports an astonishing transfer that makes this edition essential. So good, in fact, that it makes the film's no-budget FX stand out in ways that must make Sam Raimi squirm with embarrassment. The only complaint? The original short film that served as the basis for "Evil Dead" is STILL MIA.
