Prometheus, E.T. and Dial M for Murder in 3D come to home video

Prometheus

What’s hot on DVD and Blu-ray this week? ‘Prometheus,’ ‘Rock of Ages,’ ‘The Raven,’ ‘A Cat in Paris,’ ‘E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial,’ ‘Dial M for Murder’ in 3D, ‘What Ever Happened to Baby Jane,’ ‘Strangers on a Train,’ ‘Dead Ringer,’ ‘Little Shop of Horrors,’ ‘Red Dawn,’ ‘The Magical Mystery Tour’ and more arrive on October 9th!

 

It’s a pretty awesome week for movie fans with the home video release of PrometheusRock of Ages, and The Raven, all previously reviewed by our crack team of movie critics. Prometheus should be interesting for those who already saw it, with the addition of about 20 minutes of footage to hopefully explain the movie to most of the people who just didn’t get Ridley Scott’s message. Even more exciting are the first time Blu-ray releases of E.T. the Extra-TerrestrialWhat Ever Happened to Baby JaneDead RingerStrangers on a Train and Dial M for Murder which will be presented on Blu-ray in 3D, just as Hitchcock intended. Most people didn’t know the movie was actually filmed in 3D until the early 1980s (I remember seeing the first 3D screening in ’81 or ’82) when the second 3D wave hit, because by the time the film was completed the ’50s 3D fad was over. It’s going to be a real treat to see this film restored for Blu-ray and 3D (and Warner Brothers is also hard at work on bringing the original House of Wax to Blu-ray 3D sometime next year!).

Not to be outdone, the musical Little Shop of Horrors is also getting a spiffy new Blu-ray release … with the original ending finally restored and included on the disk! The first DVD release of the movie had a black and white work print version of the ending included as a bonus, but the producers objected to having the work exhibited in that condition and Warner Brothers pulled the disk from release. It was a highly sought after DVD for many years, so it will be great to see the ending now in full color! There are many more great titles coming on October 9th, so please have a look at our handy guide, and if you see something you have to add to your collection, click on a link to make a purchase from Amazon.com. You’ll be getting a great movie, and you’ll be supporting our efforts here as well!
