A masterpiece anthology of four Japanese ghost tales by the director Kobayashi Masaki is a study in color and cinematography.

A gripping docudrama based on true events that has good performances and production values.
Magic (UK) (Blu-ray Review)
An atmospheric ’70s horror in the tradition of malevolent dolls finds Anthony Hopkins holding together up a flawed film with his creepy performance.
Parasite (Blu-ray Review)
This Oscar-winner is definitely Ho Bong Joon’s best film to date and a great watch on Blu-ray.
Doctor Sleep (4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Review)
A competent sequel to ‘The Shining’ references Kubrick and both of King’s novels for some good fan service.
Motherless Brooklyn (Blu-ray Review)
A lavish neo-noir that despite solid performances is ultimately too long and feels like a poor remake of ‘Chinatown’.
Sliding Doors (Collector’s Edition) (Blu-ray Review)
This Shout Select Collector’s Edition offers up a good Blu-ray with a pleasing picture and excellent new featurettes.
The Shed (Blu-ray Review)
This low budget monster horror with some weaknesses could have done more with its unique setup but is a watchable time waster.
