I’m not a big fan of fantasy novels for many reasons that I won’t list here. My fantasy knowledge is limited, but I'm aware of many popular fantasy authors, such as the late Terry Pratchett, the author of the Discworld series. Over the years, many readers have suggested I should read the Discworld books. I’ve kept my eye out for the books at thrift stores and used bookshops, but I've never come across any of them.

Mill Creek Entertainment recently released the 1983 action-thriller Eddie Macon’s Run (PG; 95 mins) to Blu-ray (Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart). Directed by Jeff Kanew, the film the stars the late Kirk Douglas and The Dukes of Hazzard’s John Schneider.

Ever since 2015’s horror-comedy Krampus, there have a slew of low-budget Krampus tales, including last year’s Pagan Warrior (Not Rated, 83 mins), which Mill Creek Entertainment released on DVD (Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart) earlier this year. Or was it ITN Distribution? It seems at some point or another, Mill Creek Entertainment picked up several ITN DVD releases, and most of them, including Pagan Warrior, have been bad.

Today on Blu-ray (Amazon) and DVD from RLJ Entertainment (AMC Studios) is 2018’s documentary miniseries James Cameron’s Story of Science Fiction, featuring all 6-episodes on a 2-disc set.

There’s no bigger name in the world of science fiction than James Cameron (the director of Terminator 1 & 2, Aliens, The Abyss, and Avatar), so it shouldn’t be a shocker he wanted to make the ultimate documentary about science fiction movie and television series.

Does anyone remember the “huge” 1991 flop, Hudson Hawk?

I have a feeling many of you will say “No.”

I was still a nine-year-old when Hudson Hawk arrived in theatres in May 1991. Fresh off the hits Die Hard & Die Hard 2, the Bruce Willis starring action-comedy was supposed to be a big hit for TriStar Pictures, but thanks to poor reviews and disinterests from moviegoers, the film bombed at the US box office. It fared better overseas by bringing in $80 million.

Does anyone remember the 2000s epic flop All the Pretty Horses?

Directed by Billy Bob Thornton and based on the novel of the same name by Cormac McCarthy, the western romance starred Matt Damon, Henry Thomas, Lucas Black, and Penelope Cruz. With a Christmas Day release, it should have been a hit, but thanks to mostly negative reviews from critics, it flopped at the box office.

Mill Creek Entertainment sent me a review copy of The Warrant (Not Rated; 75 minutes), a western from Insp Films and Imagicamm Entertainment. I had viewed the film shortly upon receiving the DVD (Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart), but I disliked the movie so much that I've delayed writing a review for it.
