DOWNTON ABBEY: THE GRAND FINALE [4K UHD] (2025): "As the conclusion to a long-running franchise, Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale brings a tale with a little more plot than usual. That makes it a bit more interesting than the prior two films but it still delivers a project most likely to appeal to diehard fans." Starring Hugh Bonneville, Jim Carter. Universal, $33.98, 11/11/2025.

I DIED A THOUSAND TIMES [BLU-RAY] (1955): "A remake of the Bogart effort High Sierra, I Died a Thousand Times stands on its own. Thanks to a strong cast and a fairly concise script, the movie delivers an engaging mix of crime and character drama." Starring Jack Palance, Shelley Winters. Warner, $21.99, 9/30/25.

THE TOXIC AVENGER [4K UHD] (2025): "An update on a 1980s cult classic, the 2025 take on The Toxic Avenger provides a surprisingly delightful affair. As a mix of satire, action and superhero drama, the remake easily betters its predecessor." Starring Peter Dinklage, Jacob Tremblay. Cineverse, $46.98, 10/28/2025.

THE RACKET [BLU-RAY] (1951): "Only one aspect of The Racket holds it above the crowd: the energy created by its lead actors. This becomes enough to make the movie a winner." Starring Robert Mitchum, Robert Ryan. Warner, $21.99, 10/14/2025.

THE MASK: COLLECTOR'S EDITION [4K UHD] (1994): "In The Mask, we find one of the best uses of Jim Carrey’s talent. The film lets him show off his exuberant side while it also allows him to broaden his range, and the movie offers a generally amusing and winning experience." Starring Jim Carrey, Cameron Diaz. Arrow, $59.95, 11/11/2025.

A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 4: THE DREAM MASTER [4K UHD] (1988): "Though A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master marks a decline from the heights of its immediate predecessor, it still offers a fairly interesting and exciting experience. It should be regarded as pretty much 'middle of the road' for Nightmare films." Starring Robert Englund, Lisa Wilcox Warner, $104.98, 9/30/2025.
