PROTECTOR [BLU-RAY] (2025): "Nothing about the basic premise of Protector causes the film to fail. Instead, the absurd plot twists and general directorial incompetence ensure that the movie becomes a silly dud." Starring Milla Jovovich, Isabel Myers. Magenta Light, $19.98, 6/2/2026.

PSYCHO [BLU-RAY] (1998): "Though competently made, the 1998 Psycho simply remains a superfluous piece of work. It brings nothing to the table that allows it to become more than a weak carbon copy of a classic film." Starring Vince Vaughn, Anne Heche. Shout, $19.98, 5/9/2017.

SCREAM 7 [BLU-RAY] (2026): "Though Scream VI became the series’ best entry in years, Scream 7 fails to continue that winning streak. Despite the return of original screenwriter Kevin Williamson, Scream 7 seems unimaginative and tedious." Starring Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox. Paramount, $31.99, 6/16/2026.

POSSESSED [BLU-RAY] (1931): "As a story of a woman who appears to get everything she wants but not quite as she imagined, Possessed comes with potential. However, the end product tends to meander and lack bite." Starring Joan Crawford, Clark Gable. Warner, $21.99, 5/26/2026.

FOLLOW ME QUIETLY [BLU-RAY] (1949): "Given a solid basic concept and plot, Follow Me Quietly came with the potential to deliver a taut and dynamic noir serial killer tale. Unfortunately, it only sporadically comes to life." Starring William Lundigan, Dorothy Patrick. Warner, $21.99, 5/26/2026.

POKEMON DETECTIVE PIKACHU [BLU-RAY 3D] (2019): "As I went into Pokémon Detective Pikachu with hopes it’d become something clever and memorable, the end result provides a letdown. While not without occasional entertainment value, the film fails to exploit its potential positives well." Starring Justice Smith, Ryan Reynolds. Warner, $19.99, 8/6/2019.
