December 18th 2018
There's one week left before Christmas and it's full of potential gift ideas for your loved ones. First up this week is The Predator, the next sequel in the Predator franchise. While it wasn't my favorite in the series it definitely had some great kills and moments. Target will carry an exclusive art book exclusive this week and Best Buy an exclusive steelbook packaging. Marvel and Sony have been in talks to make an anti hero Venom film for years and it has finally been released this week on Bluray. This film had mixed reviews during its theatrical run but made a smash at the box office, even beating A Song is Born which was released the same day. Venom will have a few retailer exclusives as well, Target a digibook packaging and Best Buy an exclusive pop art steelbook. RLJE Films releases Monster Party, and I recommend checking this film out. I really enjoyed it and look forward to added to my collection sometime soon. Scream Factory releases Dracula: Prince of Darkness and Starman collector's editions both with new scans and bonus material. Rounding out the week is thriller A Simple Favor, The House with a Clock in its Walls and 4K releases of Schindler's List and 2001: A Space Odyssey. So what will you buy, rent or skip this week? Let us know in the comments. Until next week!
