It’s one of the more eclectic weeks in recent memory this week, with a couple of huge family films, some superhero action, a well-received “horror” movie, and one of the weirdest films I’ve seen in a long time. Dig in to find out more!
DetailsNightmare Alley (1947 and 2021)
He asks if a “geek” is born and is told that they are made and is told how a desperate man can fall so far to become something less than human.
DetailsCatwoman: Hunted
There is a lot of witty banter and amped up the sexual tension between Selina Kyle and Kate Kane portraying Catwoman as a tease who knows how to “work her audience” to get what she wants.
DetailsResident Evil Welcome to Raccoon City
The cast is strong with some amazing talent and above average performances (and most of the main characters are gorgeous), but unfortunately that couldn’t save the plot and editing.

There are some great releases this week, including a new horror stand-out, a great catalogue comedy classic, and some low-priced budget titles that offer a lot of value. Check it out!
DetailsCat People, The Curse of the Cat People, The Leopard Man
Big cats like leopards are very cinematic. There is a grace and poetry under their strong and powerful image.

Welcome to Comic-Watch Media’s new feature, “Casting Call” where we will be playing casting director for new heroes who have not yet entered the MCU. First up is Johnny Storm…flame on, Johnny!

After a couple of really small release weeks, this week sees things get back on track with some bona fide box office hits, plus the usual mix of indies, catalog titles, and B-movies.
Details
The Wolf Man, Phantom of the Opera, and The Invisible Man series. These may not be the best the decade had to offer, but they helped shape a generation of filmmakers to come, and they all have a connection to Claud Rains.

Well, it’s another small week in the post holiday sales frame, but for those of you who lean towards less mainstream fare, there are some good options today!
DetailsEscape Room and Escape Room: Tournament of Champions
Each location is more diabolical than the last with clues on how to solve each locations puzzles, but one by one the players fall prey to the lethal aspects of the game.
Details
The first few weeks of the year are traditionally slow for home video, and this week is no different, offering up just a couple of titles: a few horror flicks, a couple of British TV series, and some baseball to hold you over until Spring training.
