This week’s VOD releases more than make up for the fact that last week was a barren wasteland on the new streaming entertainment front.
- Star Wars: The Last Jedi is the big release of the week, and if you’re looking to add a digital copy to your collection, now is the time. The cheaper rental version hits in 2 weeks, for anyone who prefers to watch a movie once, then be done with it.
- It’s been 7 years since we’ve seen a new Children of the Corn sequel, and now we have Children of the Corn: Runaway to enjoy. It’s the 10th movie in the series, and we’re hoping that it is better than the last 8 sequels. The trailer looks fun at least.
- In the great tradition of Lolita and Poison Ivy, Josie is another tale of a young girl messing with an older man, which is likely to end in total disaster for all parties involved. Daddy issues. It’s always daddy issues. Sansa Stark does look good all tatted up, and Dylan McDermott plays intense pretty well, so hey, why not. Looks good.
- Tilt is one that we hadn’t heard anything about until it arrived on Amazon, and truth be told, its trailer looks solid. If you’re into psychological thrillers, this one may be the ticket.
- Allure looks like an interesting thriller. It’s got a solid cast, and has an erotically-charged tilt to it that looks to push some taboo boundaries. Might be interesting.
- If you like those half-assed reality shows like Ghost Adventures, and there are many of them, Zak Bagans has a new documentary out called Demon House about a “real” haunting that should make you happy. Those shows always feel fake to us, so we’ll be skipping this one.
- Bird Boy looks like an odd yet interesting animated adventure.
- Hell’s Kitty looks silly in all the right ways, and Apartment 212 look like some B-grade fun.
- Happy Streaming!
