Lionsgate is releasing Dredd, one of my favorite sci-fi action films of 2012, on 3D Blu-ray on January 8. Directed by Pete Travis the film stars Karl Urban, Lena Headey, Olivia Thirlby, Wood Harris, Warrick Grier, and Porteus Xandau Steenkamp. This is the second adaptation of the comic, with the first being the 1995 film starring Sylvester Stallone. Urban is great as Judge Dredd, and the film has all the perfect elements of a fun action film. Where it falls short is it's scope and the lack of a strong villain.

Instead of having to wait for a criminal to go to trial,...

Well, this damn Lost Boys franchise refuses to die, and no one dares to raise the Stake Of Mercy when there's still a buck to be made on the direct-to-dvd front. Please consult the Lost Boys: The Tribe review for further insights upon this unholy matter. Now, onto today's scheduled programming:
00:07: Before we reach the point of no return, I must defer to a Barbado Slim remark: "We lost the wrong Corey." He's absolutely correct, but - ooh, scary music.
00:30: Five years ago. Washington D.C., a.k.a. "The Other Murder Capital."
00:42: Some dude's all tied up and about to meet his maker, whomever that might be. A wheelchair containing an old man on oxygen approaches.
01:07: Creepy-voiced Agent Smith of The Matrix (not really, but close) holds out a pair of fanged dentures to the old man. "As soon as you feed,...
