Episode 550: Ugetsu Everybody

If you missed a number of recent films in theaters then this is really the Blu-ray week for you. Beyond those, Erik Childress and Peter Sobczynski still have some titles for you to consider if you can’t get enough of Nicholas Hoult in vampire films or you really like those new digital shorts on SNL. There’s also the tale of graverobbers that took their work a little too far, an obscure relationship melodrama from the 1940s and an influential ghost story set against the backdrop of the Japanese Civil Wars. 0:00 - Intro 1:50 - Criterion (Ugetsu 4K) 8:22 - Film Masters (Lighthouse) 16:38 - Kino (Burke and Hare (1972)) 22:07 - Shout (Renfield 4K, Please Don’t Destroy: The Treasure of Foggy Mountain) 33:54 - TV (Superman and Lois: The Complete Series) 34:26 - NEW (Companion, A Complete Unknown, Mufasa: The Lion King, Dog Man, Flight Risk, Into the Deep, Love Me, Love Hurts, One of Them Days,) 49:36 – New Blu-ray Announcements CLICK ON THE FILMS TO RENT OR PURCHASE AND HELP OUT THE MOVIE MADNESS PODCAST This is a public episode.
