The Shaft aka Dixia De Tiankong DVD (Global Film Initiative)
RELEASE DATE: November 22, 2011 … the stark melancholia achieves a rare authenticity, perhaps most pointedly manifested in the objective correlative of the mineshaft itself, the dismal bowels of which we only see in two brief and uneventful scenes. The family doesn’t abhor mining because it’s hazardous or arduous, but because it represents their only career option: It’s a Plutonian symbol of universal resignation… The intermittent genius of director Zhang … Continue reading

Mother’s Day Blu-ray/DVD (Troma)
RELEASE DATE: September 27, 2011 Mother’s Day is a 1980 horror film, directed by Charles Kaufman. In the UK, the film was rejected by the BBFC in 1980, banning it from sale. A remake of Mother’s Day has been completed and is currently set to release theatrically sometime in 2011. Check out the trailer here.
Dressed to Kill Blu-ray (MGM)
RELEASE DATE: September 6, 2011 First time on Blu-ray! To condemn 1980’s Dressed to Kill as a Hitchcock rip-off is to miss the sheer enjoyment of Brian De Palma’s delirious 1980 thriller. Hitchcockian homages run rampant through most of De Palma’s earlier films, and this one’s chock-full of visual quotes, mostly cribbed from Vertigo and Psycho. Check out the trailer here.

Halloween II: 30th Anniversary Edition aka Halloween 2 Blu-ray (Universal)
RELEASE DATE: September 13, 2011 Literally starting right off from the original classic “Halloween”, Dr. Loomis and Sheriff Brackett are again searching the dark streets for Micheal Myers but meanwhile Laurie Strode is taken to the Haddenfield Hospital where she is still not safe. Totally underrated in my opinion. This is the 1981 film, which is not to be confused with Rob Zombie’s sequel. Check out the trailer here.
