The HeyUGuys UK DVD/Blu-Ray Release Round-Up – 14th May
14 May 2012 4:00 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
Continuing on from the start of our new weekly feature last week, rounding up the new releases coming to DVD and Blu-ray each Monday, we have a brilliant line-up of films making their way to the shelves of your local stores today, and of course the virtual shelves online.
We’re treated to a fantastic set of new films this week – some of the finest of last year – a few excellent TV shows, and a handful of classics that are being given the HD treatment, released on Blu-ray for the first time.
We’re big fans of the Blu-ray format here at HeyUGuys, and can’t recommend it enough to you. If your television has the means to play Blu-rays and you don’t yet have a player, I thoroughly encourage you to treat yourself to one at the nearest possible opportunity. I made the upgrade about two years ago, »

Blu-ray Review: Forbidden Zone
11 May 2012 4:47 AM, PDT | Blogomatic3000 | See recent Blogomatic3000 news »
Stars: Hervé Villechaize, Susan Tyrrell, Gisele Lindley, Jan Stuart Schwartz, Marie-Pascale Elfman, Joe Spinell | Written and Directed by Richard Elfman
The question is when looking at Forbidden Zone where to start? I guess to say an attack on the senses would be one way to describe it when you first watch it. Putting in the Blu-Ray I will admit I was not prepared for the film and it did take some time to get used to its style. I will admit that my first reaction was that I would not like it, but surprisingly by the end of the film and on the second watch (to listen to the commentary track) any negativity was gone as I was fully in the Forbidden Zone.

This week's new DVD & Blu-ray
4 May 2012 4:06 PM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
Brothers Danny and Richard Elfman used to head legendary performance art troupe The Mystic Knights Of The Oingo Boingo, whose bizarro, overblown shows featured a whole host of twisted showtunes. When they morphed into the excellent, more managably sized, new wave rockers Oingo Boingo (best known in the UK for the theme tune to John Hughes's movie Weird Science), the Elfmans wanted to record their out-of-control live show for posterity. And that's where this 1982 curio comes in.
Filming over several months, the duo roped in as many of their fringe friends as possible – including Warhol superstar Viva, Fantasy Island star Hervé Villechaize and UK performance duo The Kipper Kids – to string together a dozen or so songs in an anything-goes fashion.
It's a strange movie, a true cult oddity and one of the last gasps of the bygone midnight movie circuit. Shot in black and white (though »

James Bond Retrospective: The Man With The Golden Gun (1974)
15 March 2012 3:56 PM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
To mark the 50th Anniversary of one of the most successful movie franchises of all time and with filming well underway on James Bond’s 23rd official outing in Skyfall due for release later this year, I have been tasked with taking a retrospective look at the films that turned author Ian Fleming’s creation into one of the most recognised and iconic characters in film history.
With Roger Moore well and truly established in the lead role after just one film, work began on a follow-up to Live And Let Die almost as soon as it was released into cinemas. Keen to capitalise on the renewed success of the character, producers Albert R. Broccoli and Harry Saltzman chose Fleming’s final Bond novel, The Man With The Golden Gun as their ninth film featuring the British secret agent.
With the novel taking place largely in Jamaica, it was felt »

DVD Release: Fantasy Island: Season Two
15 February 2012 9:23 AM, PST | Disc Dish | See recent Disc Dish news »
DVD Release Date: May 8, 2012
Price: DVD $39.97
Studio: Shout! Factory
Ricardo Montalban and Herve Villechaize welcome you to Fantasy Island.
Fantasy Island: The Complete Second Season arrives from Shout! Factory more than six years after Sony Pictures Home Entertainment issued Season One on DVD in the fall of 2005.
Finally!
The popular fantasy-adventure ABC television series from the 1970s stars Ricardo Montalban (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan) as Mr. Roarke, the sophisticated, near-mystical host of the titular, dream-granting tropical paradise, and Herve Villechaize (The Man with the Golden Gun) as Tattoo, his pint-sized assistant.
Produced by the legendary team of Aaron Spelling (TV’s Charlie’s Angels) and Leonard Goldberg (TV’s Hart to Hart), the 25 episodes of the classic show’s second season (it ran for seven years) feature such wide-ranging guest stars as John Astin (TV’s The Addams Family), Danny Bonaduce (TV’s The Partridge Family), Sonny Bono, »

Zalman King: Sex Thrillers Two Moon Junction, Wild Orchid
3 February 2012 4:09 PM, PST | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
Sherilyn Fenn, Richard Tyson, Two Moon Junction Zalman King Dies Pt.1: Mickey Rourke-Kim Basinger Sex Drama Nine 1/2 Weeks Though much of the media coverage on the film focused on the Sherilyn Fenn-Richard Tyson sex scenes and a full-frontal nude shot of Fenn, the most interesting aspect of Two Moon Junction was its highly eclectic cast, which included Oscar winners Louise Fletcher (One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest) and Burl Ives (The Big Country), Oscar nominee Juanita Moore (Imitation of Life), plus Little Darlings' Kristy McNichol, The Diary of Anne Frank's Millie Perkins, Fantasy Island's Hervé Villechaize, Endless Love's Martin Hewitt, TV star Don Galloway, and Milla Jovovich of the future Resident Alien movies. But despite the cast and the sex, Two Moon Junction bombed domestically, earning a paltry $1.54 million. Compared to Two Moon Junction, the $7 million-budgeted Wild Orchid (1990) was a megahit. »
