Director: Mike Hodges

Cast: Michael Caine, Ian Hendry, Britt Ekland

Release Date: August 26, 2025

A Review By: Kevin Lovell

Release Rating: 9/10

Synopsis:

Michael Caine gives a standout performance as vicious London gangster Jack Carter in this landmark crime classic from director Mike Hodges. The story begins as Carter travels to Newcastle for his brother’s funeral, where he begins to suspect that his brother’s death was not an accident and sets out to follow a complex trail of lies, deceit, cover-ups and backhanders through Newcastle’s underworld, leading, he hopes, to the man who ordered his brother killed. Because of his ruthlessness Carter exhibits all the unstopability of the android in Terminator, or Walker in Point Blank, and he and the other characters in the film are prone to sudden, brutal acts of violence. This timeless classic has been remastered from 4K scans of the original negative, with plentiful special features.

Synopsis:

They say you never forget your first. This couldn’t be more horrifyingly true for once-carefree teen girl Jay (Maika Monroe, Longlegs). After a night of intimacy with Hugh (Jake Weary, “Animal Kingdom”), passion turns to paranoia when Hugh informs Jay that she is now the latest carrier of a fatal curse passed on through sex. As Jay is haunted by nightmarish visions, her teenage friends dismiss her ravings — until they also see the ghastly ghouls. Now they must band together to break the chain and help Jay escape the horrors that always seem to be lurking just a few steps behind in this chilling, offbeat cult classic.

Synopsis:

Rediscover one of the most beloved good ol’ hound dogs ever in this comprehensive anthology of Hanna-Barbera’s landmark animated series THE HUCKLEBERRY HOUND SHOW. This complete collection presents all 68 half-hour episodes – following studio broadcast records as a guide – as originally aired during the series’ four seasons on television. Meticulously restored from 4K scans of original 35mm negatives, everyone’s favorite blue hound dog never looked better. The cool canine charmed early TV audiences with his unique personality, a slow southern drawl and fast wit that’ll win over audiences of all ages. Viewers also got familiar with Pixie and Dixie (and nemesis Mr. Jinks the cat, who hated meeses to pieces”) and future icons Yogi Bear and sidekick Boo Boo, as well as later shows which introduced the irrepressible Hokey Wolf, all of whom starred in their own segments.
