August 14th 2018


Another big release day has arrived. This Bluray Tuesday starts off with a few releases from Scream Factory, the first of which is a collector's edition of Return of The Living Dead 2 with a new scan and bonus material. They're also re-releasing several titles, Lifeforce, The Howling and Army of Darkness, as steelbook editions all with cool new artwork. The Unborn is the last release from Scream Factory this week also with a new scan and on bluray for the first time. One of my favorite films of this year finally hits stores, Avengers Infinity War. Best Buy will carry an exclusive steelbook edition and Target a digibook edition. In honor of Avengers 3 hitting stores, the first two Avengers films are also released in new 4K scans with exclusive steelbooks only at Best Buy. Unearthed Films releases Song of Solomon today and this is one I'm really looking forward to checking out this week. This release comes in standard Bluray and a limited edition copy with a soundtrack included. Rounding out the week is thriller Bad Samaritan, The Gore Gore Girls from Arrow Video and Lady Street Fighter from AGFA. What will you pick up this week? Let us know in the comments? Until next week!
