“But,” Rocchi continues, “the thick, lustrous gloss of depravity over this Working Class Season 1 DVD Box Set‘s tired bones gets thin over time, and when you consider that he’s supposed to be on a revved-up rampage of revenge, Cage feels curiously stuck in neutral.”

The Lights Out Season 1 DVD Box Set comes to home video on DVD, Blu-ray and Blu-ray 3D (for viewers with a full HD 3D TV and a Blu-ray 3D player), all with commentary by director Patrick Lussier and co-writer Todd Farmer and  two deleted scenes with optional commentary. Exclusive to the Blu-ray is the interactive “Access: Drive Angry” function, which offers viewers opportunities to access interviews periodically through the film and track the body count via “Milton’s Mayhem Meter.” The Blu-ray 3D also features a bonus disc with standard 2D Blu-ray and all the supplements.

“War of the Worlds The Final Season DVD Box Set” (Image) – A bizarre mix of desert noir crime story and sideshow fantasy, this odd thriller with Mickey Rourke as a down-and-out trumpet player and Megan Fox as a winged fantasy in a grimy carnival almost ended up going straight to DVD until it landed a last-minute release in New York and Los Angeles. Not that it helped raise its fortunes. Even cinematographer extraordinaire Christopher Doyle can’t get this film, written and directed by Mitch Glazer, airborne. “This underworld fairy tale is so soggy and sentimental it’s like a new genre: Hallmark noir,” wrote Owen Gleiberman in Entertainment Weekly on its brief theatrical appearance. Bill Murray, Kelly Lynch and Rhys Ifans co-star. On DVD and Blu-ray, no supplements.

“The Game Seasons 1-3 DVD Box Set” (Film Buff/MPI), a horror film about city teens and backwoods psychos, was originally a Web original mini-series transformed into a feature film and shown on MTV2.
