Kill Bill: Vol. 1 & 2 Double Feature Blu-ray Set (Lionsgate)
RELEASE DATE: May 15, 2012 Lionsgate presents Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill: Vol. 1 & 2 Double Feature Blu-ray Set. Not exactly the highly anticipated Whole Bloody Affair, but you can’t deny that this is an excellent value for about $10 a movie. Too bad most of us already own the individual discs. Way to go, Lionsgate.
Plot of Fear DVD (Raro Video USA)
RELEASE DATE: May 22, 2012 Raro Video USA presents 1976’s Plot of Fear, a giallo directed by Mondo Cane’s Paolo Cavara.

American Battleship aka American Warships Blu-ray & DVD (The Asylum Home Entertainment)
RELEASE DATE: May 22, 2012 The Asylum Home Entertainment is back with yet another exploitive copycat: American Battleship (aka American Warships) starring Mario Van Peebles and Carl Weathers. You know, some sucker will think it’s the other movie (and here I am spreading it). By the way, why the hell isn’t Carl Weathers in any of The Expendables flicks? Come on Sly, the guy would obviously say YES to you. Anyway, check out … Continue reading
The Assault DVD (Screen Media Films)
RELEASE DATE: June 12, 2012 Screen Media Films presents The Assault on DVD. Judging from the trailer, this tense French hostage drama looks pretty bad-ass! The film is based on true events: on Christmas Eve, 1994, armed terrorists hijacked a passenger plane and threatened all of Paris. The Assault follows France’s elite counter-terrorism unit as they plan and execute their daring rescue mission. Check out the trailer.

Quentin Tarantino Triple Feature 3-Disc DVD Set (Lionsgate)
RELEASE DATE: May 15, 2012 Lionsgate presents the Quentin Tarantino Triple Feature 3-Disc DVD Set, which contains Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction and Jackie Brown. Considering it’s a budget deal, I wouldn’t be expecting any special features (other than trailers); but even the standalone versions didn’t have any must-see special features (commentary tracks by Quentin would be nice).

Rampart Blu-ray & DVD (Millennium Entertainment)
RELEASE DATE: May 15, 2012 Quiz: Out of all the “bad lieutenants,” who would win in a fight: Harvey Keitel, Nicolas Cage or Woody Harrelson?
