Season 1, the new anthology series based on George A.
Romero’s 1982 horror comedy classic, is still the most fun you’ll
ever have being scared! A comic book comes to life in a series of
twelve vignettes over six episodes, exploring terrors from murder to
the supernatural and unexplainable. Haunted dollhouses, werewolves,
murderous goblins, villainous trick-or-treaters, the dead, and
medical marvels are just a few of the things to watch out for in this
new series. You never know what will be on the next page...

JAWS
(a.k.a. the best movie ever) on 4K Blu-ray 6/2
Universal
Pictures Home Entertainment will celebrate the 45th anniversary of
Steven Spielberg's Jaws
with a brand new 4K Blu-ray release of the film, which will be
available for purchase on June 2. When a young woman is killed by a
shark while skinny-dipping near the New England tourist town of Amity
Island, police chief Martin Brody (Roy Scheider) wants to close the
beaches, but mayor Larry Vaughn (Murray Hamilton) overrules him,
fearing that the loss of tourist revenue will cripple the town.
Ichthyologist Matt Hooper (Richard Dreyfuss) and grizzled ship
captain Quint (Robert Shaw) offer to help Brody capture the killer
beast, and the trio engage in an epic battle of man vs. nature.
