DVD RELEASES FOR 1-22-08

Here are the DVDs being released on Tuesday January 22, 2008

THE GAME PLAN – The Rock in a sort of remake of BABY BOOM.

SAW IV – The latest in the horror franchise that I have yet to see a single installment of. Although, I may actually see this eventually as it marked the return to the screen of “What Ever Happened To” subject Betsy Russell.

SYDNEY WHITE – Amanda Bynes in a reworking of the Snow White story, set on a college campus.

THE HUNTING PARTY – Richard Gere as a journalist in an acclaimed film from last year. I had planned on seeing it theatrically, but it only played for a week.

SAVED FROM THE FLAMES: 54 Rare and Restored Films 1896 – 1944 – 3 DVD set.

ADRIFT IN MANHATTAN – Never heard of this Heather Graham and Billy Baldwin film. But it is being released this week.

THIS SPORTING LIFE – Criterion release of the Richard Harris film.

SEX AND BREAKFAST – Are you ready to feel old? Macauley Culkin stars in this film about couple’s therapy!! Also starring Eliza Dushku.

BLONDE AMBITION – Jessica Simpson’s film with Luke Wilson that opened in a few theatres not too long ago and is now direct to video.

4 by Agnès Varda (La Pointe Courte, Cléo from 5 to 7, Le bonheur, Vagabond) – Criterion release

MISS JULIE – Criterion release of the Swedish film from 1950

THE KINGDOM – The Lars Von Trier miniseries, arguable the best thing he has ever done. Think of it as ER meets TWIN PEAKS, about a haunted hospital. Both seasons are available in a two pack. Udo Kier has never been creepier (which is saying something)
