DVD/Blu-ray Releases for 10/05/2010

Category : DVD/BD Releases

Buying movies is almost a dangerous obession with me. I love it, and probably have spent more money on movies in my lifetime than any sane person. At least I’m not spending money on heroine. New Movie Tuesday is my favorite day of the week. Here are this week’s releases as well as my recommendations. Being the film snob I am, I will recommend the Blu Ray versions of these flicks if available.

BUY IT

Splice

If you’re a fan of creature flicks and original stories, Splice is a must-own.  Directed by Vincenzo Natali (Cube), movies like Splice don’t come around too often.  I still haven’t seen it, but this is a total blind buy for me based on the creature design, the actors, the director and what I’ve heard of the score.  The only special feature listed is A Director’s Playground: Vicenzo Natali on the Set of Splice and I’m hoping there’s some great stuff on there.  Either way, I’m excited to own this and am happy to support Vincenzo Natali as a filmmaker.

A Nightmare on Elm Street Remake Poster

With the release of the first official picture of Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy Krueger in 2010′s remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street, I’ve been hoping for a full on Freddy pic.

None yet.  But I did find this badass poster.

First Image of Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy Krueger!

When I heard that Academy Award Winner Jackie Earle Haley (Little Children, Watchmen) was putting on the striped sweater, hat and claws to play the iconic Freddy Krueger, I was pretty excited.  I think he’s the only actor that can pull off this role made iconic by Robert Englund.

Anyway, here’s the first glimpse of Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy from the Platinum Dunes remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street.  If you were disappointed by the campiness of the Friday the 13th remake (I actually dug it), prepare for a serious, non glossy and scary Nightmare on Elm Street.  I’m hearing some great things so far through the rumor-mille.  We’ll have to wait and see.

More pics of the new Freddy will be coming later today . . .
