This is one that the Overlook creatures checked out and will post a review of in the near future. Scream Factory brings us a few titles today. Beyond The Gates, Virus and The Autopsy of Jane Doe. All must owns for me and definitely worth adding to my collection. The Autopsy of Jane Doe will be exclusively and Walmart until June 27th so if you want to add this to your collection you'll only be able to at Walmart.com or the store. Jane Doe was the number one spot of my top 10 horror films of last year and I highly recommend it to everyone. If you missed our review check it out here. Indie horror titles Hunting Grounds, The Windmill and The Curse of Sleeping Beauty all look interesting and I may check them out in the near future. I'm just glad they're on Bluray since indies usually only make the DVD cut. Rounding out the week is Scifi thriller Mindgamers, thriller Gold and documentary film I Am Not Your Negro.
