Blu Ray Recommendations

(01-08-2018 21:54 )*Kal-El* Wrote:  Back To The Future VHS Blu Ray Range - HMV Exclusive

HMV have done a set of 12 VHS Blu Rays, the casing and inside looks like a VHS cassette even right down to the size, technically it’s its 11 now there was a spelling mistake on Scarface packaging so it was recalled from the HMV stores but it ordered it online you still got it all tho HMV are offering refunds. As am a massive Back To The Future had to pick this up even with the many different versions I already own lol.
You have the classic poster image at the front and the back looks exactly like VHS right down to the display. The box slides out looking video tape leaving the art work like a slip cover. The images below will show the front, back and inside and extra goodies you get inside.
Not reviewing the disc again as it’s the same and so are the extras:

“Tales from the future” Documentary

The Making of Back To The Future

Michael J Fox Q&A

Behind the scenes including Outtakes & Deleted Scenes

Setups & Payoffs

Storyboard Comparison

Trivia Pack

With this version no digital you’ll have to either get the individual films for it or the 30th Anniversary Trilogy. It comes with two discs one the blu ray and the other a normal dvd. Also you get a poster, bubble gum with a scene from film and sticker with a image from film.
There other films in VHS Blu Ray Range 80’s films for example 48 hours, The Thing, The Breakfast Club, Beverly Hills Cop and many more £14.99 or two for £25. I actually did a unboxing of it on YouTube.

Thi VHS range from hmv is great. I love the design, it's almost like looking at a real video tape! They're so well done.

I got Airplane, Beverly Hills Cop, The Blues Brothers & The Warriors.

I highly recommend The Addiction(1995)

I bought it from Morrison's for £15.

A black and white vampire movie directed by Abel Ferrara adapted from a screenplay from long time collaborator Nicholas St.John.Lili Taylor is superb as student Kathleen,bitten by a "creature of the night" who is then forced to come to terms with her existence.It blends pulp and philosophy together and riffs on drug addiction,fear of Aids whilst referencing Sartre,Heidegger and Nietzsche.It then shocks with jolts of violence and some incredibly chilling scenes.Christopher Walken is particularly evil in a cameo appearance as an ancient Dracula type character that's probably scarier than any other that's been put on film.It all looks stunningly unnerving in 4K.

Extras :

Commentary
Documentary
Interviews

Star Trek IV The Voyage Home

One of my fav films of original movies, so I ordered this steel book a few days. First of all it’s a fantastic looking steel book the poster art work on the front looks great. The title is debossed and goes well with the gold trim and very funny film too.
Picture quality as always 1080p transfer and it looks amazing a massive improvement over the dvd version and is presented in 2.35:1 widescreen. The sound quality is 7.1 Dolby TrueHD and via a home cinema system the sound is fantastic.

Extras

Commentary By Roberto Orci & Alex Kurtzman

Panel Chelov’s Screen Moments HD

The Three-Picture Saga HD

Star Trek For A Cause HD

Starfleet Academy: The Whole Probe HD

Blu-Ray Exclusives

Plus Ovee 2 More Hours of Additional Special Features

No digital copy which is shame, would have been great if the steel book had a gloss finish.
Added bonus I picked this second hand for £4 looks brand new.

If you like Paul Verhoeven films you can't go wrong with Flesh + Blood(1985)

I bought it from Sainsbury's for £12.

An epic medieval tale that contains the Dutch directors usual themes of sex and violence as a kidnapped wonan(betrothed to nobility)uses sexual manipulation and mutual attraction to gain the trust of her captor's leader.Fully uncut with top performances from Rutger Hauer and Jennifer Jason Leigh.Looks wonderful in 4k and comes presented in a slipcase along with the DVD version.

Grosse Pointe Blank

Starring John Cusack, Minne Driver and Dan Ayroyd. This film is fantastic not only full of action and funny too.
The picture and sound quality big improvement over the dvd version so worth the upgrade. The only extras you get are a theatrical trailers and that’s it would have loved to seen a making of this great movie and no digital copy. The bonus was picked it brand new for a pound, highly recommend this movie.

For animé fans,I recommend Mary and the Witch's Flower(2018).

I picked up the steelbook from a market in Willoughby for £10.

Based on a British book,this full length feature from Studio Ponoc is as charming as any Ghibli effort as we follow Mary's adventures as she trains at a witching college meeting all kinds of unique characters along the way.
