Nine Inch Nails - Ghosts I-Iv

New DVD Releases - 2008.04.08

New DVD Releases

2008.04.08

Pick Of The Week:

There Will Be Blood



While I don't love it as much as some, this is obviously a must-see, and probably a must-own.

The 11th Hour



Wow! Talk about putting your money where your mouth is. This global warming doc by Leonardo DiCaprio is selling for UNDER FIVE DOLLARS!

The Cats of Mirikitani



This seems like an exciting release day for docs, even though I don't think I'm going to be seeing the 11th Hour, this is the first of three docs I'm looking forward to. Unfortunately, I just noticed that this ISN'T on Netflix.

Fog City Mavericks: The Filmakers of San Francisco



I saw a poster for this at the American Film Market, and I knew I would have to see this.

I Am Legend



Lions For Lambs



Reservation Road



Resurrecting the Champ


Sharkwater



Walk Hard




MUSIC RELEASES


Marc Ribot: The Lost String



The two music releases this week are probably the ones I most want to see. This is a doc about one of the most versatile guitarists around. You can hear some of his excellent guitar work in the John Zorn song posted below.

Yohimbe Brothers: Freedom Now



I don't know anything about this specific release, but Yohimbe Brothers is guitarist Vernon Reid and turntablist DJ Logic. That's enough for me.
