Over the last few weeks, we’ve seen a lot of new movie trailers for sequels, many of them from franchises that movie buffs never expected to see again.
Classic film noir makes a strong showing on Blu-ray this week, as a couple masterpieces of the genre finally appear on the format. Some newer movies are available too, of course, if the prospect of black & white scares you.

I think I liked ‘Red State’ more than the average critic. I like its frantic pace and its completely nutty religious wackos. Michael Parks is amazing as the enigmatic cult leader. It’s an all-around fun little fi...
Monday was a day of rest. I only had one movie to go to, and that was the big premiere of Kevin Smith’s ‘Red State’. My wife came down from our house in Logan, Utah to hang out with me. I’m sure you donR...
