John McClane, zombies and identity thieves come to home video
Movies on DVD and Blu-ray June 4 include ‘A Good Day To Die Hard,’ ‘Identity Thief,’ ‘Warm Bodies,’ ‘Escape from Planet Earth,’ ‘Midway,’ ‘The Shadow,’ ‘Earthquake,’ ‘Mad Max Trilogy,’ ‘Creature from the Black Lagoon,’ ‘At Long Last Love,’ and much more!
For some, June 4th is A Good Day To Die Hard. For others, it’s a good day to snuggle up with some Warm Bodies. Unfortunately, some may also be victims of an Identity Thief. If you fit any of these categories, then it’s a great day to pick up the latest home video releases. In addition to those major Hollywood releases, the catalog releases on tap this week are pretty awesome. Universal has repackaged and repriced a large collection of their recent and classic films, and in addition, they are also providing spiffy new Blu-ray releases of Midway, The Shadow, and (finally!) Earthquake (complete with Sensurroud audio enhancement, as presumably is Midway).
Warner Brothers is offering a complete Mad Max Trilogy, and Universal (again) is releasing more individual films from the Classic Monsters Collection. One of these titles, Creature from the Black Lagoon, is definitely worth picking up if you avoided the set. The image is striking, crisp, clear and without a blemish. It looks almost like a brand new movie. And the 3D version on the same Blu-ray is also stunning. It is miles above the disappointing Dial M for Murder which suffered from too much image ghosting.
