RE: Blu Ray Recommendations
The Guyver(1991)
Got it in Granger Games for £10.
Co-directed by Predator creature fx guys Screaming Mad George and Steve Wang,this small time version of the classic character looks good on blu ray,really making the creatures stand out in all their glorious detail and a decent performance from Mark Hamill helps this harmless but cheesy effort along.

RE: Blu Ray Recommendations
Highly recommend Donnie Darko(2001)
I bought it from a local market for £12.
The new 4k transfer for the theatrical and director's cut is utterly astonishing and with a new 85 minute documentary,Richard Kelly's deeply bleak but captivating film finally gets the ultimate cinema enthusiast's treatment it always deserved.

RE: Blu Ray Recommendations
I highly recommend Hunt For The Wilder people(2016)
I bought it from Granger Games for £10
Sam Niell in superb form as mentor to a 13 year old boy lost in the foster care system.Julian Dennison as Ricky is also excellent in this low key New Zealand hit from Taia Waititi.Awe inspiring cinematic framing of the beautiful New Zealand landscape is the perfect backdrop for the sparring between Neill and Dennison.Funny,deep and remarkably moving.Looks amazing in blu ray HD.

RE: Blu Ray Recommendations
Highly recommend Fright Night(1985)
I bought it from Sainsbury's for £10.
A cult classic from Tom Holland with a great cast and amazing live action effects.Another perfect mix of clever comedy and scares.Chris Sarandon steals the entire show but Roddy McDowell and William Ragsdale also put in charismatic turns.Far superior to the bland 2011 remake.(There's also a steelbook version to be released on the 27th March).

Bring Me the Head Of Alfredo Garcia(1974)
Bought it from a sunday market for £8
One of Sam Peckinpah's all time great films,gripping with fantastically shot gun fights and spellbinding performances from Warren Oates,Gig Young,Robert Webber and Isela Vega.Cinematic perfection in blu ray HD.
Extras :
