THE MAD MISS MANTON [BLU-RAY] (1938): "With two Hollywood legends as its leads and a clever take on the murder mystery genre, The Mad Miss Manton provides a fine romp. With a firm lean toward the comedic side of the street, it keeps matters light and vibrant as it amuses us from start to finish." Starring Barbara Stanwyck, Henry Fonda. Warner, $21.99, 10/28/25.

MANHATTAN MELODRAMA [BLU-RAY] (1934): "Thanks to a fine cast, Manhattan Melodrama becomes a perfectly watchable effort. The movie never really excels, but the actors keep us with it." Starring Clark Gable, William Powell. Warner, $21.99, 10/28/25.

SHELBY OAKS [BLU-RAY] (2025): "A mix of ‘found footage’ and more traditional horror, Shelby Oaks never gets into a groove. It lacks the narrative material necessary to carry its brief running time and drags too much to hit the mark." Starring Camille Sullivan, Brendan Sexton III. Neon, $33.98, 1/6/2026.

SHAMELESS: THE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON [BLU-RAY] (2011): "A tale of a clan living on the edges, Season One of Shameless alternates black comedy and sappy melodrama. The two sides don’t always connect well so this becomes an erratic package of shows, though one with enough merit to keep me semi-invested." Starring William H. Macy, Emmy Rossum. Warner, $29.98, 12/27/2011.

KEEPER [BLU-RAY] (2025): "All good things come to an end, and Osgood Perkins’ winning streak of appealing movies concludes with the lackluster Keeper. Although it displays a few signs of life, it seems disjointed and surprisingly tedious." Starring Tatiana Maslany, Rossif Sutherland. Neon, $19.98, 2/3/2026.

TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES III: COLLECTOR'S EDITION [BLU-RAY] (1993): "After two reasonably watchable adventures, the franchise falters with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III. Despite a potentially exciting story, the silliness and idiocy ensure its failure." Starring Paige Turco, Elias Koteas. Arrow, $79.99, 12/16/2025.
