Peter Sobczynski has the rundown on this week’s physical media with Erik Childress. Leading the way are French classics by Jean-Pierre Melville and Patrice Leconte. They talk about the controversies surrounding Todd Solondz third feature and the strange hiatus of director Robert Butler. 4K tries to clean-up a second helping of the Ghoulies and a Thailand based creature feature “not to be confused with Alligator.” Finally they go back and forth on the 1996 mega-hit that finally spawned a sequel 28 years later.
