Episode 549: Hackman And The Deadly Wonder Women

Blu-rays, 4Ks, physical media galore this week as Erik Childress and Peter Sobczynski guide you through another week. They include upgrades of a great Gene Hackman film and another from Alan Rudolph by Criterion. There’s early work from Rudolph Valentino and the late George Armitage. Horror goes from brain-inhabiting slugs to a black mamba, child murders, cannibalism and eating the rich. There’s also a pair of Chris Farley/David Spade films and a trio of deadly women including Ursula Andress, Kathleen Hughes and the immortal Lynda Carter.   0:00 - Intro 1:54 - Criterion (Night Moves 4K, Choose Me 4K) 21:23 - Warner Archive (Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, Hit Man) 32:05 - Shout Factory (Shaw Brothers Vol. 6, Night of the Creeps 4K) 41:19 - Blue Underground (Venom 4K) 50:56 - Arrow (Don’t Torture a Duckling 4K) 58:36 - Severin (Delicatessen 4K, Antiviral 4K) 1:09:48 - Paramount (Tommy Boy 4K) 1:15:42 - Kino (Black Sheep 4K, The Glass Web 3D, The 10th Victim, Bobbie Jo and the Outlaw) 1:33:55 – New TV on Blu-ray (Magilla Gorilla: The Complete Series, Star Trek: Lower Decks - The Complete Series) 1:35:18 – New Theatrical Titles On Blu-ray (The Brutalist 4K, Babygirl 4K, Memoir of a Snail) 1:37:38 – New Blu-ray Announcements This is a public episode.
