Top 10 Blu-ray Releases of the Week
By Arlen Schweiger
Tom Hanks, Ben Stiller, a classic 80s fright flick, and intense Rolling Stones doc highlight this week's crop of Blu-ray releases.

I remember being really scared seeing Gremlins in the theater. Of course, I was only 10, but man, when the evil Gremlin started wielding a chainsaw that was my cue to run out to the concession area.

There were plenty of campy movies to come out of the 80s, but Gremlins was good enough to be scary, entertaining and overall a pretty decent flick. So it should be interesting to see how well it holds up 25 years later, when we can watch it in high-definition as one of this week’s top Blu-ray releases.

If it’s starpower you’re looking for, Tom Hanks and Ben Stiller find their way onto more Blu-rays with this week’s release of The Green Mile and Night at The Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian, respectively. Or you can catch Brad Pitt and try to figure out what the heck he’s saying through his thick accent in Snatch.

Here are our picks for Top 10 Blu-ray Releases of the Week.



Gremlins
A wholesome, picture-postcard town is turned upside-down at Christmas, when “gremlins” - some impish little creatures - are accidentally unleashed. Please do not add water. The moral is don’t wait for the last minute to buy your Christmas gifts.

Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian
This is a sequel to the hit film Night at the Museum. Night guard Larry Daley (Ben Stiller) returns to the Museum of Natural History to visit his friends — exhibits that come to life at night. The exhibits, however, are being shipped off to be put in storage at the Smithsonian Institution.
