Survival of the Dead

While I happily defended Romero’s Diary of the Dead, like so many others, I outright disliked this one. Uninteresting, which is absolutely surprising for a Romero film, and far from his best. I got to hand it to him. He’s continuing to work in the genre he created, but this isn’t much more than a footnote to his Dead films. (Formats: Blu-ray/DVD) Jon says: Rent (at best)   Donny says: Rent

The Back-Up Plan

From what Serena Whitney told me, this was a poor attempt at gross-out humor and a rom-com. Nothing worked, she said, and I’ll believe her, as you should too when your girlfriend wants to rent this. (Formats: Blu-ray/DVD)   Jon says: Avoid   Donny says: Rent

Lost: Season 6

By now, you’re either dying to finish the series or dying to have the series be finished. For fans only. (Formats: Blu-ray/DVD)  Jon says: Rent    Donny says: Buy

The Simpsons: Season 13

To some, this is the season where it started to go down hill. Again, for fans only. (Formats: Blu-ray/DVD)   Jon says: Rent    Donny says: Rent
