Very very little this week. A whole stack of interesting looking westerns (many with Glenn Ford) are coming out this week, but I know nothing about them. The Mummy remakes and sequels are getting another re-release but I'm only interested at this point if they blurayfie them. Below is a very scant (but interesting list).
The Mummy (1932) The original and the best, and I've never seen it. The shame. The shame. A more elaborate special edition than the last time they released all the classic Universal monster movies it seems to have all the original extras plus some new cool stuff - interested to hear Rick Baker talk about it.
Cloverfield (Blu-Ray) Some how I completely missed the (very brief) hype over this JJ Abram's production. Curious to see it though, especially in light of having now seen Diary Of The Dead, another horror apocalypse done with from a first person POV.
The Fugitive Season 1 Vol 2 Don't buy this under any circumstances. You are subtly being screwed over. They've changed much of the original source music because the studio couldn't be bothered to obtain the rights.
No Country For Old Men (Blu-Ray) Despite some bizarre and typical Coen sequences and an incredibly frustrating final scene, this is a first rate thriller that should look fantastic on Blu-Ray. As is typical for the Coens also, however, is the screwing over in the extra features department.
