Bluray Tuesday creeps up on us once more! First up this week from Scream Factory is The Widow. This one flew under the radar for me but I am super interested in it. DC sequel Wonder Woman 1984 hits shelves this week with a steelbook exclusive and Best Buy and an exclusive slip cover only at Target. This sequel wasn't as great as the original but I really enjoyed it. Rounding out the week is supernatural thriller The Toll, Girl, Interrupted and two 4K releases from Severin. So what will you buy, rent or skip this week? Let us know in the comments. Until next week!

Wielding their king's magic, Nyx Ulric and his fellow glaives stand
before the crown city of Insomnia, fighting to stay the inexorable
advance of Niflheim's imperial army. Before the overwhelming military
might of the empire, King Regis can only salvage his kingdom by
accepting an ultimatum-he must cede all lands outside the crown city,
and see his son, Prince Noctis, wed to Lady Lunafreya, the former

the machinations of Niflheim transform Insomnia into an awe-inspiring
battleground, pulling Nyx into a struggle for the very survival of the
