I see that Amazon has a couple of promotions going right now that has a number of titles available for less than $14.

The first promotion is cleverly titled ‘Save on Blu-ray Discs as Low as $13.95‘.

A number of the Warner titles in the promotion are $13.95, including A Clockwork Orange , Alexander, Beerfest, Bullitt, Eraser, Every Which Way But Loose, House of Wax, March of the Penguins, Space Cowboys, Swordfish, The Aviator, The Gauntlet and Wyatt Earp.

A few interesting releases to mention today.

The Shawshank Redemption has been freshly listed by Warner, scheduled for a December 2nd, 2008 release.

This Frank Darabont film featuring Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman is based on a Stephen King story.

Shawshank Redemption is the number one rated move at IMDb!

It looks like this release will be one of the ‘booklet’ cases. Retail will be $34.99, only $25.95 at Amazon.

I am very happy to see that Video Treasures is planning to release Heathers on November 18th, 2008. I can only assume that Video Treasures is somehow related to Anchor Bay / Starz. In any case, retail will be $29.97, only $20.95 at Amazon.

Looks like it is time for a second Blu Raspberry retraction - again one I am very happy to make.

While I was disappointed when a new Heathers DVD was released with no Blu-ray counterpart, Home Media Magazine is reporting in their Comic-Con round up that Heathers writer Dan Waters promoted the Anchor Bay August Blu-ray release of Heathers at the show.
