DVD Pick of the Week: Stuck - Page 3

Part of: DVD Pick of the Week

4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days. Here is a movie that has received some fantastic reviews. It is set in 1980s Romania and tells the story of a woman who helps her friend obtain an illegal abortion. I cannot believe it will be an upbeat film, but based on all the good word seems to need to be seen. (BUY, RENT, SKIP)

Standard Operating Procedure. Errol Morris's latest documentary takes a look at the treatment of prisoners at the hands of US forces at Abu Ghraib. Based on his past output, this deserves to be seen, although the subject matter is sure to be difficult. (BUY, RENT, SKIP)

Halloween: 30th Anniversary Box Set. Yet another release of Myers films from Anchor Bay. Not sure if this is worth it as fans likely already have all of the contents. I guess it would be worth it for those of you who don't have any of them. It includes Halloween, Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers, Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers, and the 25th anniversary documentary. (BUY, RENT, SKIP)

The Rocky Horror Tribute Show. Creator Richard O'Brien staged a theatrical return for the cult classic featuring many of the past performers. This was recorded in 2006 and would look to make a great complement to your DVD of the film. (BUY, RENT, SKIP)

Revenge of a Kabuki Actor. Never heard of this 1960s film before, but it looks interesting. It concerns a man in a traveling Kabuki theater who comes across the three men who drove his parents to suicide decades earlier. He plans his revenge. Sounds good to me. (BUY, RENT, SKIP)

Shogun Assassin: 5 Film Collector's Set. This box set contains the five films in the Shogun Assassin series, which are re-edited versions of the Lone Wolf and Cub films. I have seen a couple of the original versions, I just need to get the last couple. It would be interesting to see these versions. (BUY, RENT, SKIP)
