Chaos. This action/thriller was shot back in 2005, and I believe this is its first release anywhere. I don't think it was ever given a theatrical release, and we all know what that means. There is a reason why it was deemed to be a direct to video, or very limited theatrical run, film.

It stars Jason Statham, Ryan Phillipe, and Wesley Snipes. The first two are a couple of detectives investigating a bank robbery which leads them to Snipes. Outside of that, I do not know much about the film other than it involves Chaos Theory in some fashion.

German Expressionism Collection. This set, from Kino, contains four classics of German Expressionism in restored forms: The Hands of Orlac. The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, Secrets of a Soul, Warning Shadows.

How can you go wrong with that? Especially when I only know one of the films in it (Caligari). These old films are good examples of what you could do with low budgets and a lot of creativity.

Spiral. From the director of Hatchet comes this new journey into horror. This could prove interesting as the gore of Hatchet gives way to more psychological horror in Spiral. The former proved to be a fun journey into the bayou, with plenty of gratuitous gore and nudity.

The new film concerns a disturbed telemarketer and can count Chuck's Zachary Levi, Mr. Brooks' Amber Tamblyn, and Battlestar Galactica's Tricia Helfer among the cast.

Zebraman. Takashi Miike's latest creation to arrive on American shores is a family outing. If nothing else, this prolific director always provides something interesting to watch (just check out the decidedly non-family friendly films such as Audition, Fudoh, Visitor Q, and Ichii the Killer).

This film concerns a teacher who is a failure at all that he does who turns to canceled television show Zebraman for inspiration. He makes his own costume and goes to the streets to fight crime.

I don't know about you, but I am definitely intrigued!

Well, that about wraps up this week's edition of DVD Pick of the Week. Be sure to let me know what you think of the new format!
