Basket Case Blu-ray (Image)
RELEASE DATE: September 27, 2011 First time on Blu-ray! With memorably gruesome scenes – such as the screaming woman with the scalpels stuck in her face – and some disturbing stop-motion animation, Frank Henenlotter’s Basket Case (1982) is one of the most beloved, cheerfully demented cult classicks of all time. So go ahead and open the basket… if you dare! Check out the trailer.
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.
Charles Bronson DVD Set: The Mechanic, Messenger of Death, Assassination (Image)

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.
Jurassic Park Ultimate Blu-ray/DVD Trilogy and Limited Edition Blu-ray Set (Universal)
