What DVD's did you buy this week?


Dave

Recommended Posts

Can we have a thread for "What DVDs did you nearly buy this week?"? I almost picked up 300, Hancock (such a great movie) and Hellboy 2 today, only £3 each, but decided not to incur the wrath of the missus, so put them back on the shelf. :doh:

I feel your pain my man as i have faced the wrath of the missus and the dreaded budget. :crying:

Love this flick. Not only is an underrated-as-hell, fun action movie and a faithful adaptation of a great comic book series, but Jennifer Connelly was baked to absolute hottie perfection in this one as the hero's Bettie Page-esque girlfriend. Yum yum!

Cool man! Glad to see another member of the Rocketeer Cult. There aren't many of us. :tumbsup:

 

And speaking of Cult, got this baby in the mail from Amazon today....

If you only buy one 1970s Italian-made low budget "Star Wars" ripoff starring David Hasselhoff this year, make sure it's this one. :rofl:

Awesome. The Others rocks, a great film, about time I put it on again.

 

Just bought the Event Horizon special edition myself. Another fantastic film and (as recently discussed on HH) hugely underrated. :tumbsup:

That was a solid movie, not great but still very good IMO.

 

Yeah, not bat at all. I remember I expected a much worse film back then. Btw I've got this on DVD too. ;)

Oh yeah, I've seen it before but it's been awhile. A lot of people really hated this flick when it came out for some reason. I think expectations were too high for it. I myself watched it with a big-ass fanboy smile plastered across my face the entire time. :lol:

Just bought True Romance on Blu-ray. Already got it on imported laserdisc but at £6.00 I couldn't resist.

 

Great film. Is there a better character exchange?

 

"You know, I read a lot....." :bowdown:

The scene with Christopher Walken & Dennis Hopper is a superb bit of cinema.

$3.99 from the Shop Rite bargain bin. I already have the other two "Candyman" flicks on DVD so I figured "ehh, why not."

 

I saw this one years ago and have vague memories of it being somewhat terrible (if memory serves, I was home sick from work the day I watched it and was whacked out of my head on NyQuil and Sudafeds) but it does star former "Baywatch" babe/Nikki Sixx's ex-wife Donna D'Errico, so there should at least be some eye candy.

Deformed psycho killer in a monster truck vs. group of horror film stock characters on a deserted highway. Sounds like a hoot and a holler! :banana:

It was kick-ass! Actually a very well written, funny horror/action flick. Put a review of it up on IMDb over the weekend: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0365513/usercomments-84

Made a couple of impulse buys on Amazon today... wife is probably gonna kill me but what the hell... they were cheap.

HAD to get this one, cuz I didn't even know "Maniac Cop 2" existed on Region 1 (U.S.)DVD. I already own the first "MC" but this sequel was actually better.

Both "Waxwork" films on one DVD for $7.99. Can't beat that with a stick eh? I went to a test screening of the first "Waxwork" when I was in high school, and it was a gory, goofy good time.
