"There’s Something About Mary" has been one of the major surprise box office hits of last year. A romantic comedy that blew everything out of the water completely unexpectedly, drawing huge crowds into theaters and eventually making almost [...]

The Cat From Outer Space

This 1978 Disney film has been lovingly restored by Anchor Bay for release on this DVD. While the picture is clear, the source material appears to have been on the dark side and there is some grain evident at times. No serious film artifacting like [...]
