DVD shuffle: New Year Edition

New on DVD this week:

1) Snakes on a Plane: BUY – I have no idea how this movie performed so poorly at the box office. It was by far one of the most enjoyable theatrical experiences of the year. Buy the DVD and show it to your friends. A soon-to-be cult classic.

2) The Covenant: RENT – Renny Harlin used to make some pretty entertaining movies, but this isn’t one of them. Still, it’s worth checking out for fans of “The Craft.”

3) Beer League: PASS – Go rent “Beerfest” instead.

Several new titles were also released the week of Christmas, including the claustro-horror flick “The Descent,” the Zach Braff dramedy “The Last Kiss,” “Jackass: Number Two” and “The Black Dahlia.”
