Thor (DVD/Blu Ray)

- Kenneth Brannaghan’s take on everyone’s favourite Norse God hits Blu Ray and DVD today. If you missed this in the cinema this is your chance to make amends for that huge mistake.

Cannibal Holocaust: Ruggero Deodato's New Edit (Limited Edition) (Blu-ray)

- One of the banned ‘Video Nasties’ of the 1980s, Cannibal Holocaust remains one of the cult horror films of its generation. This Blu Ray release apparently shows the film faithful to the director’s original vision, and is probably best left alone if you’re of a nervous disposition.

- The latest season of the hit US comedy which put the chic in geek goes on sale today, with 24 episodes of hyper neurotic geniuses mocking one another spread across 4 discs.

Shark Night (Cinema)

- Sexy teens being eaten by a variety of sharks while swimming in a lake. Utterly ridiculous and probably entertaining, this B movie horror is showing in both 3D and 2D.

Red State (Cinema)

ICO & Shadow Of The Colossus HD Collection (Video Game)
