All right, this is going to be our last regular post until Monday, though we will be back on Friday to let you know about any great Blu-ray or 4K deals worth mentioning. But we do have a few things for you...

First up, Tim has turned in a nice little batch of disc reviews as part of his Scream for a Week column, including his thoughts on David Cronenberg’s Dead Ringers and Rabid, as well as The Monkey’s Paw, all from Scream Factory. He’s also turned in a review of the new Mystery Science Theater 3000: Volume XXXVII on DVD from Shout! Factory. All are work a look, so enjoy! [Read on here…]

In release news today, it appears that 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment’s The Birth of a Nation will now street on Blu-ray, DVD, and 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray release on 1/10.

And Universal Studios Home Entertainment has set October Sky, The Ghost and Mr. Chicken, and It Came from Outer Space for Blu-ray release on 2/14. These have been Best Buy exclusives up to now. Note that It Came from Outer Space includes both 2D and Blu-ray 3D on the same disc. You can see the cover artwork below.

Also, Disney’s Pinocchio: Walt Disney Signature Collection Blu-ray is now available for pre-order on Amazon.com.

Here’s a look at the cover artwork for all of the above (click on the covers to pre-order each on Amazon)...

And that’s all for this week. We’d like to take a moment to wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving and safe travels as you head out to be with family and friends! We’ll see you back here on Friday. Eat lots of good food and watch lots of great movies. Peace out!
