THE RUNNING MAN [BLU-RAY] (2025): "As an update on both a 1980s novel and film, this take on The Running Man provides intermittent thrills along with social commentary. However, it doesn’t quite click like I hoped it would, so it becomes a watchable but erratic action experience." Starring Glen Powell, Josh Brolin. Paramount, $31.99, 3/3/2026.

ROLLERBALL [4K UHD] (1975): "At its core, Rollerball comes with the potential to deliver a taut conspiracy-based thriller. In reality, though, the film moves at a horribly slow pace and comes with too little actual story or character content to adequately fill its 124-minute running time." Starring James Caan, John Houseman. Shout, $29.98, 2/8/2022.

SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT [4K UHD] (2025): "As the second remake of a 1984 horror flick, the 2025 Silent Night, Deadly Night attempts something different with the property. Though this sounds appealing in theory, the final result never coalesces into anything coherent enough to succeed." Starring Rohan Campbell, Ruby Modine. Cineverse, $46.98, 2/17/2026.

TARZAN AND HIS MATE [BLU-RAY] (1934): "Probably the best-regarded entry in a notable series of films, Tarzan and His Mate inevitably suffers from some issues related to its less than progressive worldview. Still, it exists as part of its era and it comes with pretty good adventure." Starring Johnny Weissmuller, Maureen O'Sullivan. Warner, $21.99, 2/24/2026.

RICHARD PRYOR: HERE AND NOW [4K UHD] (1983): "Despite occasional laughs, Richard Pryor: Here and Now presents a legendary comedian far from his peak. While it becomes a decent experience, it just doesn’t find a real groove." Starring Richard Pryor. Sony, $30.99, 2/24/2026.

PULSE [BLU-RAY] (1988): "A mix of influences, Pulse never quite creates its own identity. Still, it turns into a moderately effective supernatural horror flick, if not a great one." Starring Cliff De Young, Roxanne Hart. Alliance, $27.99, 1/27/2026.
