Castle: The Complete First Season
September 30, 2009
Nathan Fillion has developed a loyal cult following thanks to his memorable guest spots on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and a starring role on the short-lived television show Firefly, not to mention a fantastic turn in the horror/comedy film Slither (2006)....
Booker: Collector’s Edition
August 17, 2009
At the height of its popularity, cop television show 21 Jump Street introduced the character of Dennis Booker (Grieco), a rebellious cop and a bad boy alternative Johnny Depp’s brooding, moody cop. Booker proved to be enough of a hit with audiences...
Nightmares and Dreamscapes
October 31, 2006
Stephen King adaptations are traditionally hit or miss affairs. For every superior one like Salem’s Lot (1979) there are many more lackluster ones like Maximum Overdrive (1986). And so each new King adaptation is approached with a certain amount of...
The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr.: The Complete Series
July 17, 2006
The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr. was a short-lived television program that attempted to resurrect westerns like The Wild Wild West and Maverick complete with lots of two-fisted action and adventure and a good dose of humour supplied by its star, Bruce...
Night Stalker: The Complete Series
May 31, 2006
Night Stalker was one of many sci-fi/horror themed television shows that tried to capitalize on the popularity of Lost. Perhaps it was a case of too many shows competing with each other as Night Stalker was cancelled after only six episodes aired. X-Files...

Elektra: Director’s Cut
February 8, 2006
Based on the lukewarm critical and commercial reaction to Elektra (2005), is a Director’s Cut really warranted? Apparently, somebody thought so and following on the heels of the much better Daredevil (2003) Director’s Cut we get a slight tweaking...
Elektra
October 24, 2005
The only thing to survive the debacle known as Daredevil (2003) was the positive reaction, by audiences, to one of the characters in the film, Elektra, played by Jennifer Garner. This may have been more as a result of her fresh-faced, girl-next-door charisma...
The Lone Gunmen: The Complete Series
October 7, 2005
It must’ve seemed like a good idea at the time. Take the three most popular supporting characters from The X-Files and give them their own show. A few episodes aired before it promptly disappeared from our TV screens. So, what happened? Had Chris Carter...
