Based on the comic book series written by Robert Kirkman “The Walking Dead: The Complete Fifth Season” is a story that weaves the true motives of the people of Terminus with the hopeful prospect of a cure in Washington, D.C., the fate of the group’s lost comrades, as well as new locales, new conflicts, and new obstacles in keeping the group together and staying alive. Five years ago, a man awoke from a coma in a hospital. For sheriff’s deputy Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln), what should have been a cause of celebration became the flash point for five years of unceasing horror, unrelenting personal sacrifice.
On August 25th, Anchor Bay Entertainment gives home entertainment fans their annual Walker fix with “The Walking Dead: The Complete Fifth Season” Blu-ray™ + Digital HD and DVD releases in format of anamorphic Widescreen (1.78:1) with great audio in English Dolby Digital 5.1 and French Dolby Surround 2.0 with English subtitles and Spanish too.
During 710 minutes of insightful and provocative bonus features that give viewers yet another inside glimpse into creating the fallen world of the Walkers and the souls brave – and crazy – enough to attempt survival. Based on the comic book series written by Robert Kirkman and published by Image Comics, AMC’s “The Walking Dead” continues to grow in global popularity and audience viewership. The fifth season also saw the introduction of such notable characters from the graphic novel as Father Gabriel Stokes (Seth Gilliam) and the cannibalistic Hunters. There are some deleted scenes such, “Inside “The Walking Dead”,”The Making of “The Walking Dead”,”The Making of Alexandria”,”Beth’s Journey”,”Bob’s Journey”,”Noah’s Journey”,”Tyreese’s Journey’,”A Day in the Life of Michael Cudlitz’,”A Day in the Life of Josh McDermitt”,”Rotters in the Flesh.”
The fifth season features 17 series regulars: 10 of the actors are featured in the opening credits; the other seven are credited as “also starring”. Michael Cudlitz, who portrays Sgt. Abraham Ford, is added in the opening sequence after being listed as recurring in the previous season and Andrew Lincoln as Rick Grimes, Carl and Judith’s father, is the series’ primary protagonist. However, this season also includes an experienced cast as Norman Reedus, Steven Yeun, Lauren Cohan, Danai Gurira, Chandler Riggs, Melissa McBride, Chad L. Coleman, Sonequa Martin-Green, Lawrence Gilliard, Jr., Michael Cudlitz, Emily Kinney, Alanna Masterson, Christian Serratos, Josh McDermitt and Andrew J. West.
Definitely, one of the best parts of this is more interactive because consumers are going to have to fill up the tanks themselves with one of the most popular and outstanding TV shows ever broadcast.

For many fans of zombies, The Walking Dead 4 Season rewards patience and loyalty in a DVD and Blu-ray and is being released for August 26th with all the original characters Abraham Ford, Eugene Porter, Rosita Espinosa, Bob Stookey, and Lilly, as well as a modified version of the Chambler family from The Walking Dead: Rise of the Governor tie-in novel. In general Rick and the group of survivors fostering a thriving community in the safe haven of the prison and all of them have to face hidden dangers brewing inside the fences.This includes few extended episodes, audio commentaries, deleted scenes, behind-the-scenes footage and numerous special features. For many fans of this successful story would have seen it as an over kill of the plot especially with all the bombs, blood and gore you could want even the whole series can be more wretched than the dead, and while executions and beatings can be good fodder, it’s tight, dialogue-heavy scenes like this solidify the nihilistic experience. However for children who are not old enough to say they should not be watching this show especially for those zombies that really have a life left in this story. Definitely is highly recommended for your collection!

Here’s what he had to say about his initial idea for this case. The best part of this one is more interactive, because consumers are going to have to fill up the tanks themselves, and you can get little hooks on the heads, so you can arrange them any way you see fit. Also you can hang them in a certain order, or you can just let them go to the ground and flop around. No one person’s case has to be exactly like the others.
Walking Dead 2 is coming at home
Interviews Video By Alfonso De Elias
Season Two lead cinematographer Rohn Schmidt’s gritty, hopelessly dour mise en scene is perfectly depicted on Anchor Bay’s Blu-ray transfer. The Walking Dead: The Complete Second Season Blu-ray arrives courtesy of AMC and Anchor Bay Entertainment. The show is presented in 1.78:1 widescreen, mixed in 7.1 Dolby TrueHD. The season’s 13 episodes are spread among four discs. An epidemic of apocalyptic proportions has swept the globe, causing the dead to rise and feed on the living. In a matter of months, society has crumbled: There is no government, no grocery stores, no mail delivery, no cable TV.
Rick Grimes finds himself one of the few survivors in this terrifying world. He was a small town cop who had only fired his weapon a couple times but never at anyone and had only ever seen one dead body. Separated from his family, he must sort through the death and horror to try and find his wife and son. In a world ruled by the dead, people are forced to finally begin living.
Shot on Super 16, The Walking Dead is a textured, gritty looking series, often painted with morose, bleak visuals and a stark, apocalyptic palette reminiscent of other zombie films. The Blu-ray presentation outdoes the already staggering HD broadcast by delivering a cleaner, crisper presentation.
It’s probably not a series for the ages, but any genre programming that can both appeal to its base market and still drum up intrigue in other demographics has to have something going on under its hood. Most images are defined by pale colors that yield a gray, bleak, hopeless sort of visual structure that reinforces the themes of despair and death and emphasizes the general end-of-days misery. The zombie apocalypse is not just about mindless nonstop zombie smashing for people with ADHD. It’s more about the loss of humanity and how people interact with each other so this Blu-ray-DVD has English and French languages with English subtitles.
“American Reunion” steps up with some genuine laughs
Review by Jenny Alvarez

American Reunion comes back to all the American Pie characters we met a little more than a decade ago return to East Great Falls for their high-school reunion. In one long-overdue weekend, they will discover what has changed, who hasn’t and that time and distance can’t break the bonds of friendship. Jim, Michelle, Stifler, and their friends reunite in East Great Falls, Michigan for their high school reunion.
If you are looking for a good comedy to go see, this one, is a good choice. Plenty of funny scenes some of them are bringing back the nostalgic memories mostly from the first film. You will laugh from beginning to end, and none of the laughter or jokes were forced. All the characters have their own issues (too married, have kids, hate their jobs, hate their lifestyle, etc.) and the movie is kind of about them all resolving their over the course of a reunion weekend. It’s the American Pie which is most similar to the first one. All the old couples from high-school (Oz/Heather, Kevin/Vicky, Jim/Michelle) re-hash their past feelings. So all the best jokes and good comedy is back again!
