Michael Lehmann’s jet black cult comedy ‘Heathers’ makes its debut on 4K UHD this week, courtesy of a jam-packed release from Arrow Video. However, if you already own the Blu-ray edition from this label, I’m sorry to say you aren’t getting much more bang for your buck with this latest release. Restored and repackaged (without a single new special feature) it certainly looks fantastic, but is only really worth upgrading if you are beholden to the latest formats. The film however, remains an absolute cracker.

Ashville bounced back from Tuesday’s agonising defeat against Barnton with a hard fought 1-0 win away at Eccleshall in a fiery affair.

A refreshing and clever take on the home-invasion sub-genre of horror, Adam Wingard’s ‘You’re Next’ has been given an excellent new release from the good folk at Second Sight. Crisply restored in 4K, the brutal bloodletting of this family reunion gone very wrong has never looked better. A fierce and funny slasher, packed with special features and heaps of gore, ‘You’re Next’ should definitely be the next addition to your home media collection.

The law of diminishing returns has never been quite so obvious as it is in Robert Rodriguez’s trilogy of Mexican Mariachi mayhem. He essentially made the same film three times in the space of eleven years, but never bettered his now legendary low-budget feature debut. The Mexico Trilogy (‘El Mariachi’, ‘Desperado’, and ‘Once Upon A […]

Jonathan Demme’s landmark psychological horror ‘The Silence of the Lambs’ has been given an exquisitely detailed 4K restoration by Arrow Video. I don’t want to say the film has never looked better, as that is entirely subjective. The process of taking films from decades ago and making them look like they were released today is certainly a contentious topic right now. Especially in instances where we are seeing the texture of celluloid being digitally scrubbed away. I’m happy to report that hasn’t happened here. Arrow’s restoration is very impressive, and from an objective perspective, has never looked this sharp and finely detailed. If image clarity is your thing, then this is the release for you.

After what seems like an eternal wait, Robert Harmon’s 1986 cult classic ‘The Hitcher’ has finally been given a Blu-ray release. And not just any old Blu-ray release, but a spectacular 4K UHD from Second Sight Films, loaded with brand new extras, a book of insightful essays, and a paperback of the original screenplay. Given what we know is still to come this year, I won't say this is the best home entertainment release of 2024 just yet, but I can confidently say it's the best of the year thus far.

Ashvill suffered their second loss in a week after falling 1-0 to Eccleshall at the Ray Parker Stadium.

I've read a great many older negative posts regarding John Parker. Let me assure that I am a legitimate customer of his and have no...

American men's skeet competitor Vincent Hancock made waves at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games as the first Olympic shooter to win four gold medals in the same individual event. Not only that, he joined an elite list of athletes—Hancock is one of only seven Olympians throughout history to capture four gold medals in the same event, including four Americans—Al Oerter (discus), Carl Lewis (long jump), Michael Phelps (200 m butterfly) and Katie Ledecky (800 m freestyle).

ASHVILLE exited the FA Vase following a 2-1 home defeat to Wombwell Town in Round Two.
