'Slither: Collector's Edition' Blu-ray Supplements Detailed (UPDATED)[teaser]James Gunn's 2006 horror/comedy will be getting a Collector's Edition Blu-ray in July. [/teaser] In an early announcement to retailers, Scream Factory is preparing 'Slither: Collector's Edition' for Blu-ray on July 25. Prepare yourself for this terrifying, twisted and chilling film that critics are calling "the most entertaining horror movie in years" (Joe Williams, St. Louis Post-Dispatch). From the co-writer and director of Guardians Of The Galaxy and Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2, comes the deliciously demented story of an unnamed evil wreaking havoc on a small town. Intent on devouring all life on Earth, this dark and slimy entity is infecting anyone in its path. Now it's up to the local sheriff, Bill Pardy (Nathan Fillion, Firefly, Serenity), and his team to stop the spread of rampant devastation – and shocking mutilation – before it's too late. This outrageously funny horror film also stars Michael Rooker (Guardians Of The Galaxy, The Walking Dead), Elizabeth Banks (The Hunger Games, Pitch Perfect) and Gregg Henry (Body Double, Jason Bourne). The release will feature 1080p video, lossless 5.1 audio, and supplements include: NEW Audio Commentary With Writer/Director James Gunn And Actors Nathan Fillion And Michael Rooker NEW The Genesis Of SLITHER – An Interview With Writer/Director James GunnNEW The Other MacReady – An Interview With Actor Gregg HenryAudio Commentary With James Gunn And Nathan Fillion (From 2006)Deleted And Extended Scenes With Optional Commentary By James GunnVisual Effects: Step By StepSlithery Set Tour With Actor Nathan FillionThe Sick Minds And Slimy Days Of SLITHERBrewing The Blood – How To Make BloodBringing SLITHER's Creatures To LifeLloyd Kaufman's Video DiaryGag ReelWho Is Bill Pardy?

HBO Reveals Second Trailer for 'Game of Thrones' Season 7[teaser]We're in for a cold July.[/teaser] Following the debut of the first official trailer last month, HBO has released a second trailer for the upcoming seventh season of Game of Thrones with tons of new footage. The show is set to premiere on Sunday, July 16. Summers span decades. Winters can last a lifetime. And the struggle for the Iron Throne continues. It stretches from the south, where heat breeds plots, lusts and intrigues, to the vast and savage eastern lands, where a young queen raises an army. All the while, in the frozen north, an 800-foot wall of ice precariously protects the war-ravaged kingdom from the dark forces that lie beyond. Kings and queens, knights and renegades, liars, lords and honest men...all play the 'Game of Thrones.' An original series based on George R.R. Martin's best-selling 'A Song of Ice and Fire' series. Check out the new season 7 trailer below! Season 7 is set to be the penultimate season of the series and will include seven new episodes. An eighth and final season will follow with a total of six new episodes. In addition, HBO is currently working with several writers and author George R.R. Martin to develop scripts and concepts for potential spinoff shows. Game of Thrones Season 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 are now available on Blu-ray and Digital HD. Likewise, the series is available to stream through HBO Go and HBO Now. HBO Go is currently available through the web, several streaming devices, and smart TVs as part of an authenticated HBO pay-TV subscription. Meanwhile, the HBO Now app is available as a stand-alone streaming platform for $15 per month. Source: HBO (YouTube)Posted Wed Jun 21, 2017 at 10:45 AM PDT by: -

Samsung Unveals Pricing & Availability for "The Frame" 4K Ultra HD TV[teaser]The new lifestyle TV will be available for purchase on June 18.[/teaser] Samsung has announced pricing and availability for "The Frame" Display. The premium TV was developed in collaboration with renowned designer Yves Behar and is set to go on sale Sunday, June 18, in 55-inch ($1,999) and 65-inch ($2,799) models. "At Samsung, we have built our leadership in the TV business by delivering the very best ways for consumers to view their favorite content on TV – which until now, has been focused primarily on picture quality and interaction," said Dave Das, Senior Vice President of Consumer Electronics for Samsung Electronics America. "With The Frame, we are changing how consumers actually view the TV itself. The entire concept of The Frame is unique and totally groundbreaking. When it's turned on, it offers the stunning picture quality our customers expect. When it’s turned off, it becomes the picture itself. So whether viewing movies or art, The Frame will redefine what consumers expect from a TV." Emphasizing premium design, The Frame is a display built to look like a picture frame hanging on a user's wall when not in use as a TV. When the unit is placed in "Art Mode," the screen displays custom-designed digital art pieces instead of fading to black like a traditional television. Customers can choose from 100 art pieces in 10 different categories through the "Samsung Collection" -- including landscape, architecture, wildlife, action, drawing, and more. Likewise, users can also purchase additional pieces from Samsung’s "Art Store" or save and upload their favorite personal art work or photographs using “My Collection.” Finally, The Frame uses Samsung's new Invisible Connection and No Gap Wall-mount, allowing versatile mounting options without unsightly cables or wires, along with customizable accessories like interchangeable bezels and an optional Studio Stand. Optional bezels for the 55-inch model include white, beige and walnut shades of real wood for an additional $200. Meanwhile, bezels for the 65-inch model are available for $250.
