New on DVD: Week of May 10
After a bad week for releases, this weeks is a bit better. The big names this week include Legion and Daybreakers. Even though I'm a sucker when it comes to action/horror films, I wasn't all that impressed with either. I did find Daybreakers to be a bit more enjoyable, mainly because of Willem Dafoe. The Karate Kid is also releasing on Blu-ray. Here is the full release schedule broken up by standard DVD and Blu-ray:
