Adrien Brody stars in the new movie I’m looking most forward to this Tuesday. I love science fiction stories about experiments gone wrong and it looks like most Flickchart users have been rating this one very well.

I generally am OK with remakes if for no other reason than they finally give me some incentive to watch the original. The original was a solid little Rocky-clone and everything I’ve heard about this modern remake seems to be pretty positive too.

A Nightmare on Elm Street (DVD & Blu-ray | R | 2010)

A Nightmare on Elm Street reviews and rankings How would you rank it amongst the best slasher movies of all time?

I don’t have the stomach to watch a human centipede in action but I am impressed by how nuts this movie seems to be.

I actually kinda liked the first Space Chimps. It’s a little ridiculous, brightly-colored and features some decent voice acting. Can’t say I’m excited to see what a DTV sequel looks like though.

30 Days of Night: Dark Days (DVD and Blu-ray (DTV) | R | 2010)

30 Days of Night: Dark Days reviews and rankings How would you rank it amongst the best monster movies of all time?

We picked a pretty lousy two week stretch to open this column with. Last week’s biggest release did $1.7 million at the US box office and this week’s hit $8 million. By all accounts Bad Lieutenant and Pirate Radio (aka The Boat That Rocked) are good movies, they just aren’t that sexy to kick a column off with (well, aside from stars Eva Mendes and January Jones).

So, here are this week’s new DVD, Blu-ray, and Netflix Instant Watch titles. Each film will include their Flickchart global statistics (when available), as well as three direct links to rank the title against similar movies (one good, one average and one bad) to help nail down where the movie belongs on your chart.

It can be sometimes be hard to keep track of adding everything that you’ve seen to Flickchart, and movies have a tendency to leave your mind for one reason or another.

To combat this, we’re starting a new weekly feature including all the notable DVD, Blu-ray, Netflix Instant Watch, and Warner Brothers Archive titles that are newly available. Each film will include their Flickchart global statistics, as well as three direct links to rank the title against similar movies (one good, one average and one bad) to help nail down where the movie belongs on your chart. Without further adieu, let’s get started!
