Mr. Lucky Blu-ray review

Directed by H.C. Potter, Mr. Lucky is a 1943 romantic comedy drama starring screen icon Cary Grant as Joe Adams, a swindler and smooth-talking gambler out to launch a casino after taking money from a charitable organization.

The Walking Dead Blu-ray review

Director Michael Curtiz, the man responsible for directing some of the arguably best classic films in cinema including Casablanca, Mildred Pierce, and Angels with Dirty Faces, dabbled a little into the classic horror film genre in the early thirties. Horror themed movies on his resume which consist of Doctor X, Mystery of the Wax Museum…
