New DVD releases Tuesday, Nov. 24
By Bill Frost @bill_frost
| Angels & Demons Tom Hanks loses the mullet just in time to save the Catholic Church from another imaginary force, the Illuminati. Based on another crap novel from crap author Dan Brown; co-starring Ayelet Zurer as the obligatory Hot Scientist … Ayelet? Sony.com |
|
| Funny People A comedian with terminal disease (Adam Sandler) hires an assistant (Seth Rogan) for some reason, then gets over it and decides to reunite with his ex-girlfriend (Leslie Mann) and go for What Truly Matters. Yes, it’s a comedy. NBCUni.com |
|
| Robodoc National Lampoon’s send-up of the healthcare system, starring Alan Thicke, David Faustino, Corin Nemec, John Byner (!), Michael Winslow (!!) and others who had careers in the ‘80s, plus several naked skanks. RobodocTheMovie.com |
|
| The Terrorist Next Door Kathleen Robertson and Michael Ironsides star in the true-ish story of the Millennium Bomber, who attempted to blow up LAX in 1999. Possibly the best Canadian TV movie about the Millennium Bomber ever produced. MonarchVideo.com |
|
| The Witches Hammer A dead woman (Claudia Colter) is reanimated by a secret government agency and turned into a sexy supervampire to kill other vampires using deadly kung-fu and deadlier leather pants. It’s like Blade and Underworld, shot for $100. MTIVideo.com |
