We’re starting the week here at The Bits, as we so often do, with a trio of new Blu-ray reviews, including...

Dennis’ look at Herbert Ross and Woody Allen’s Play It Again Sam (1972) on Blu-ray from Imprint Films.

And Stuart’s thoughts on Edward Kull and Wilbur F. McGaugh’s 1935 The New Adventures of Tarzan serial on Blu-ray from Film Masters, as well as Clarence Brown’s Sadie McKee (1935) on Blu-ray from our friends at the Warner Archive Collection.

Also, Stephen and I have just contributed a pair of new subscriber-exclusive blog posts on The Digital Bits’ Patreon page (here and here). We’re up to 377 subscribers over there, and we’d really love to reach 400, so if you appreciate what we do here at The Bits in support of physical media, please consider subscribing to our Patreon. We have options for doing so that are as low as $6 a month (with discounts for a year-long subscription) and we definitely try to post exclusive content there that will make it worth your while, including regular video updates. Thanks in advance for your consideration! [Read on here...]

Wednesday afternoon here at The Bits brings new disc reviews and more release news as well...

First, Tim has posted his thoughts on Michael Felsher’s excellent new documentary After Effects: Memories of Pittsburgh Filmmaking, now available on Limited Edition Blu-ray from his own new label, Red Shirt Video. Sounds like it’s a pretty terrific release so do check it out.

By the way, after you enjoy that, here’s a link to an interview I did way back in 2005 (on the original Bits website) with writer/director John Harrison about Effects and his work with Romero and other Pittsburgh filmmakers. (Just pardon the messy formatting.)

Also this afternoon, Stephen has posted reviews of William Beaudine’s The Old Fashioned Way (1934) on Blu-ray from Kino Lorber Studio Classics, as well as Sarah Smith, Jean-Philippe Vine, and Octavio E. Rodriguez’s Ron’s Gone Wrong in 4K Ultra HD from 20th Century Studios.

More reviews are forthcoming in the days ahead, including several that I’m working on, so be sure to keep your eyes peeled for them. [Read on here...]

All right, I’m finally feeling better after my recent brush with an allergic reaction, so I’ve got a good My Two Cents update for you all today with some exciting 4K UHD release news and more new disc reviews as well.

First up is Stephen’s look at Joe Dante’s The Howling, now available in a new 40th anniversary release in 4K Ultra HD from Studio Canal in the UK. The 4K disc in the package will work on any UHD player, but the Blu-ray is Region B only and the DVD is Region 2 only.

Also today, Stephen has taken a look at Anthony Mann’s The Naked Spur (1953) on Blu-ray from MGM via the Warner Archive Collection.

And Tim has reviewed Camillo Mastrocinque’s An Angel for Satan (1966) on Blu-ray from Severin Films, as well as Don Siegel’s Coogan’s Bluff (1968) on Blu-ray from Kino Lorber Studio Classics. [Read on here...]
