AUDITION: COLLECTOR'S EDITION [4K UHD] (1999): "Although it influenced American ‘torture porn’ films, Audition provides something much less overt and aggressive than those films. While it can feel like slow-going much of the time, I appreciate the gradual build and subtlety of the movie." Starring Ryô Ishibashi, Eihi Shiina. Arrow, $49.95, 6/16/2026.

THE LATE SHOW [BLU-RAY] (1977): "Part affectionate spoof and part paean to the sands of time, The Late Show offers an unusual detective tale. It balances its different goals well and becomes an engaging little effort." Starring Art Carney, Lily Tomlin. Warner, $21.99, 5/26/26.

PROTECTOR [BLU-RAY] (2025): "Nothing about the basic premise of Protector causes the film to fail. Instead, the absurd plot twists and general directorial incompetence ensure that the movie becomes a silly dud." Starring Milla Jovovich, Isabel Myers. Magenta Light, $19.98, 6/2/2026.

PSYCHO [BLU-RAY] (1998): "Though competently made, the 1998 Psycho simply remains a superfluous piece of work. It brings nothing to the table that allows it to become more than a weak carbon copy of a classic film." Starring Vince Vaughn, Anne Heche. Shout, $19.98, 5/9/2017.

SCREAM 7 [BLU-RAY] (2026): "Though Scream VI became the series’ best entry in years, Scream 7 fails to continue that winning streak. Despite the return of original screenwriter Kevin Williamson, Scream 7 seems unimaginative and tedious." Starring Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox. Paramount, $31.99, 6/16/2026.

POSSESSED [BLU-RAY] (1931): "As a story of a woman who appears to get everything she wants but not quite as she imagined, Possessed comes with potential. However, the end product tends to meander and lack bite." Starring Joan Crawford, Clark Gable. Warner, $21.99, 5/26/2026.
