Reissues

The Navigator: A Medieval Odyssey

Arrow Video puts out a gorgeous transfer of Vincent Ward’s 1988 breakout film. Shot in New Zealand and highly inspired by the medieval art of Hieronymus Bosch, this film features stark black and white imagery of Cumbria in the year 1348 as the black plague looms… only to suddenly turn to color as our heroes travel through a tunnel into 1980’s New Zealand. The disc features a vintage 1989 documentary on the making of the film.

Piranha II: The Spawning

James Cameron’s inauspicious directorial debut, arguably the best movie about flying piranhas ever made, comes home to Blu-ray from Scream Factory featuring a spiffy-looking new 2K scan of the camera negative. The disc also features interviews with actor Ricky Paull Goldin and special effects man Brian Wade.

The House of the Dead

Also known as Alien Zone, this obscure 1978 anthology movie put out in a loving package by Vinegar Syndrome features the stories of four different corpses and how they each arrived on the slab.

The fourth-highest-grossing film ever at the worldwide box office comes home to Digital platforms.

Josh Brolin truly delivers as the antagonist and central character trying to bring about a universal genocide for the good of the universe. A must-own for all Marvel fans!
