Bluray Tuesday: Featuring Hell Night, The Houses October Built 2 & American Made

January 2nd 2018

Happy New Year! I'm hoping you all had a good holiday. This marks the first Bluray Tuesday of 2018 and there are some solid releases to start off the new year. Scream Factory releases Hell Night as apart of their collector's edition line with new bonus material. Haunt attraction film The Houses October Built 2 releases today from Image Entertainment. This sequel could have been really good but, like many 2017 sequels, it sadly fell short. American Made is the biggest release today starring Tom Cruise in yet another action film. It has gotten good reviews and feedback. Miss Zombie also comes out today and this is one I really look forward to checking out. I haven't heard anything about this foreign film but I like the premise. Rounding out the week is a long awaited Criterion release of the classic film The Breakfast Club. So what will you buy, rent or skip this week? Let us know in the comments. Until next week!

The 1973 tennis match between Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs became the most watched televised sports event of all time. Trapped in the media glare, King and Riggs were on opposites sides of a binary argument, but off-court each was fighting more personal and complex battles.

The Breakfast Club: Amazon - $24.99

Five high school students from different walks of life endure a Saturday detention under a power-hungry principal (Paul Gleason). The disparate group includes rebel John (Judd Nelson), princess Claire (Molly Ringwald), outcast Allison (Ally Sheedy), brainy Brian (Anthony Michael Hall) and Andrew (Emilio Estevez), the jock. Each has a chance to tell his or her story, making the others see them a little differently -- and when the day ends, they question whether school will ever be the same.
