Indiana Jones - The Adventure CollectionAnother banner week for DVDs with the studios releasing some great films and boxed sets such as:  Indiana Jones - The Adventure Collection [review] - One of the best action trilogies ever filmed, these classic movies get a new release just before the fourth Indian Jones flick hits the theaters; Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe (Blu-ray) [review] - the movie looks and sounds phenomenal on Blu-ray. If that isn't enough, the stunning visuals, charming cast, and childlike sense of awe and wonder are sure to win viewers over; and The Lovers - Criterion Collection [review]- Louis Malle creates a sexy movie about sexual freedom that self-reflexively comments on the perils of getting what you wish for. Other releases of note include:  Two and a Half Men - The Complete Third Season, Twelfth Night [review],  and The Big Trail [review]. Be sure to check out our DVD Talk Review Database for all the latest reviews including an e

This week we feature a film that isn't for the feint of heart: Frontier(s). After a group pulls off a bold heist, they hide out in a seemingly peaceful inn. But the mysterious innkeeper is hiding a secret more terrifying than anything they could ever imagine. Trapped in an endless maze of tunnels crawling with hungry subhuman cannibals, they must fight to survive their bloody initiation into the innkeeper's evil family cult. Frontier(s) is the latest installment in the After Dark Horrorfest series of DVDs released by Lions Gate Entertainment and is a "gripping French import that serves up the goods for hardcore horror film fans". Check out the trailer to this "memorable horror entry" that's filled with "style, energy and overall excess."

Adventures of Young Indiana JonesTV on DVD remains very popular with more and more favorites being released. New TV reviews include:  The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones, Volume Three - The Years of Change - The final installment of Indiana Jones' TV adventures is highly recommended and comes with a whopping supply of 31 documentaries and bonus features; Wildlife Specials - this set of eight high quality documentaries created by the BBC and hosted by David Attenborough is a very appealing package you'll definitely want to check out; and They Filmed the War in Color: Victory in Europe and The Pacific War - a stunning compilation of ultra-rare color footage of both civilian and military life during WWII, with surprisingly in-depth, thoughtful analysis. Other shows include:  DNA, NOVA: Absolute Zero, and The Hunt for John Wilkes Booth.  Want more?  Check out all of the TV on DVD reviews in the DVDTalk database.

Anime Here's another edition of Anime Talk for you to pour through! We've reviewed some very interesting and entertaining shows this time around. From the panty-shot heavy Agent Aika to the absolutely superb Death Note there is a lot of variety in the market right now and to be honest there's something for everyone. We also take a look at a show that's "technically" not anime but in many ways it deserves a look for otaku seeking something else to watch. Check out all this and more in this week's Anime Talk.

Merrill's Marauders This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews including: Merrill's Marauders - Sam Fuller takes on the Burma campaign in this much admired but little-shown big scale battle epic. It's Jeff Chandler's last film; The Skull - Peter Cushing carries this not-bad-at-all supernatural horror about the criminal cranium of none other than the Marquis de Sade, and its alarming habit of tearing people's throats out. Directed with style by Freddie Francis; also starring Christopher Lee and Patrick Wymark; and La Roue - Abel Gance's legendary 1923 silent movie surfaces in a magnificent restoration -- all 4.5 hours of it! This story of love and loss in the family of a railroad engineer is a milestone of cinematic innovation, hailed as the next step past D.W. Griffith and a strong influence on the direction of world cinema. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.

The Wachowski Brothers return to the big screen with their valentine to the cult Japanese anime series Speed Racer. DVD Talk film critics Brian Orndorf and Jamie S. Rich were not pleased with the results. Ashton Kutcher and Cameron Diaz engage in a battle of the sexes in the awful romantic comedy What Happens in Vegas. And World of Warcraft addicts taste the dragon-slaying reality of NERO in Monster Camp. Also in theaters: Dorian Paskowitz and the story of his enormous surfing brood is explored in Surfwise. Be sure to catch reviews of other recent Theatrical Films: Iron Man, Son of Rambow, Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay, Rogue, Made of Honor, Redbelt, Prom Night, and Google Me. As always, we invite you to share your thoughts on films In Theaters in our Movie Talk Forum.
