About this episode
Erik Childress and Peter Sobczynski discuss recent physical media releases and notable films.
The beginning of any month now seems like a light week for physical media, so Erik Childress and Peter Sobczynski only have a few titles to talk about. They include the magnificent starpower of Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn in a comically Hitchcockian caper. Jack Nicholson does much more than order in a diner. There’s an early LBGTQ film from William Friedkin and the financially successful but creatively bankrupt attempt at a live-action cartoon. Plus a new extensive documentary on John Carpenter’s 1982 horror masterpiece tells you everything you wanted to know and then some. 1:47 - Criterion ( Charade (4K) , Five Easy Pieces (4K) ) 24:00 -- Cinematographe (The Boys in the Band 4K) 33:16 - CreatorVC ( The Thing Expanded ) 48:51 - Shout (The Flintstones (4K) ) 1:04:55 - New TV on Blu-ray ( Covert Affairs: The Complete Series , Doctor Who (2025): Season Two , The Creep Tapes (Season Two) ) 1:09:14 - New Theatrical Titles on Blu-ray ( Hoppers (4K) , Protector ) 1:10:28 - New Blu-ray Announcements CLICK ON THE FILMS TO RENT OR PURCHASE AND HELP OUT THE MOVIE MADNESS PODCAST OR BUY FROM MOVIEZYNG Be sure to check out Erik’s Weekly Box Office Column – At Rotten Tomatoes Critics’…
