This Week on DVD & Blu-ray (09-06-11)
September 6, 2011
Your post-Labor Day selections are all over the place this week. From a handful of animated picks for the kiddos to several reissued horror flicks. Director Brian DePalma has two releases new to Blu-ray, “Dressed to Kill” and “Scarface” (released in a Limited Edition), but I would spend time with Sam Peckinpah’s unrated “Straw Dogs” instead. There’s also a great serious turn by Will Ferrell in “Everything Must Go” and “Hanna” a movie that made my Top Ten Films of 2011 (so far) list.

Worth checking out for their performances as well as Matthew Vaughn’s direction as well as a rare retro superhero look and tone. Take a look….
