Movie Review: 3 From Hell Steelbook

On September 28, 2021, Lionsgate unleashed 3 From Hell exclusively on Steelbook. Being a fan of the Firefly trilogy and Rob Zombie, I had to get my hands on a copy. Let’s begin with the cover, after all, it is the first thing you see. The plastic outer cover features artwork of Baby (Sheri Moon Zombie), Winslow (Richard Brake), and Otis Firefly (Bill Moseley) along with the title, and it’s fantastic! The artwork is brilliantly done. Once the plastic hardcover slides off the steelbook is revealed and has the same artwork except with skeletal faces on the front and three caskets on the back.

The Hit Horror Film ‘Megan Is Missing’ Is Coming To Blu-Ray

2011’s viral social media hit Megan Is Missing arrives on Blu-ray™ this October from Lionsgate. This terrifying cautionary tale, inspired by a true story, from writer-director Michael Goi (Mary, “American Horror Story”) is about the dangers of online communication. “Controversial. Brutal.

But there’s no way to tell the story of the disappearance of 14-year-old Megan Stewart and her best friend, Amy Herman — a story taken from video chats, webcam footage, home videos, and news reports — without descending into the very heart of depravity and despair. Notorious on social media, banned in New Zealand, and enhanced by never-before-seen Blu-ray™ bonus content, Megan Is Missing offers an unflinchingly candid look at the dangerous online world today’s teenagers face — a world that’s every parent’s worst nightmare.” Amber Perkins, Rachel Quinn, and Dean Waite star in Megan Is Missing, available on Blu-ray™ from online retailers
