Provocative and psychological, this movie, featuring a brand new restoration from a 4K scan of the original negative by Arrow Video, is an incredible statement on the beauty of film as an art form. It is directed by a visual master of the macabre and, unrestrained with astounding ...

This is the story of one teenager who has an itch that, because of what he has become, he won’t ever stop itching. Full Moon High, now on blu-ray thanks to Scream Factory, might never live up to its potential but it certainly knows how to have a howling good time while it runs ...

Campy. Hard. Serious. Weird. Whatever word you use to describe your interpretation of this benchmark television show, just know that you aren’t wrong. The Outer Limits, for a large portion of us, continues to be EVERYTHING. The Twilight Zone, as awesome as ...

Thank God for Shout Select. Their resurrection of Three O’Clock High, the very apex of cinematic psychological fear and terror when it comes to High School flicks, is to be worshiped. John Hughes did great things for teenagers in the 1980s but, when it comes to ...
