		<description><![CDATA[DreamWorks Pictures’ Fright Night, starring Colin Farrell, arrives on December 13, 2011 just in time to take a bite out of the holidays on Blu-ray 3D, Blu-ray, DVD, Digital and On-Demand.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://blu-news.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/FrightNightMini.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-5471" title="FrightNightMini" src="http://blu-news.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/FrightNightMini.jpg" alt="" width="232" height="215" /></a>BURBANK, Calif., October 14, 2011</span> — DreamWorks Pictures’<span style="font-weight: bold;"> Fright Night</span>, starring Colin Farrell, arrives on <span style="font-weight: bold;">December 13, 2011</span> just in time to take a bite out of the holidays on Blu-ray 3D, Blu-ray, DVD, Digital and On-Demand.</p>
<p>Inspired by the 1985 gothic horror cult classic and directed by Craig Gillespie (Lars and the Real Girl,Mr. Woodcock), all hell breaks loose when High School Senior Charley Brewster (Anton Yelchin) discovers his charming new neighbor Jerry (Farrell) is a Vampire preying on his neighborhood.</p>
<p>Packed with un-rated bonus features, the Blu-ray release includes a fang-in-cheek mockumentary “Peter Vincent: Swim Inside My Mind,” a hilarious satirical look at David Tennant’s egocentric “rock star” anti-hero character, Peter Vincent; &#8220;The Official How to Make a Funny Vampire Movie Guide;” “Squid Man: Extended and Uncut;” “Frightful Facts &amp; Terrifying Trivia;” &#8220;Deleted Scenes;” and a &#8220;Gag Reel.” Also included is the uncensored “No One Believes Me” music video directed by Fright Night’s director Craig Gillespie and performed by hip hop recording artist Kid Cudi.</p>
<p>Proclaimed, “A Bloody Good Time” by Trey Alexander (Fandango.com), Fright Night features an all-star cast including: Colin Farrell (Horrible Bosses, Crazy Heart), Anton Yelchin (Star Trek, Terminator Salvation), Toni Collette (Academy Award® nominee for The Sixth Sense, and Golden Globe® winner for United States of Tara), Christopher Mintz-Plasse (Kick Ass, Superbad), David Tennant (Dr. Who, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire) and Imogen Poots (Jane Eyre, 28 Weeks Later).</p>
<p>Charley (Anton Yelchin) is a high school senior who’s on top of the world—he’s running with the popular crowd and dating Amy (Imogen Poots), the most coveted girl in school. But trouble arrives when Jerry (Colin Farrell) moves in next door. He seems like a nice guy––at first. But there’s something not quite right, and no one else, including Charley’s mom (Toni Collette) seems to notice. After his classmates start to mysteriously disappear without a trace, Charlie discovers that there is more to his new neighbor than meets the eye. Now he must do all he can to protect his mom and girlfriend Amy from meeting the same fate as his best friend Ed Thompson (Christopher Mintz-Plasse).</p>
<p>Fright Night will be available to own and for in-home viewing as follows:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://blu-news.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/hoodwinked-sd.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-5300" title="hoodwinked sd" src="http://blu-news.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/hoodwinked-sd.jpg" alt="" width="169" height="159" /></a>BEVERLY HILLS, CA</span> – Anchor Bay Entertainment and The Weinstein Company announced today the <span style="font-weight: bold;">3D Blu-ray, Blu-ray</span>, and DVD release of the all-new animated family comedy, <span style="font-weight: bold;">HOODWINKED TOO! HOOD VS. EVIL</span>, heading to retail on<span style="font-weight: bold;"> August 16, 2011. </span></p>
<p>Directed by Mike Disa and produced by Kanbar Entertainment, the team that brought you the original HOODWINKED! film, HOODWINKED TOO! HOOD VS. EVIL is based on the beloved classic children’s fairy tale Red Riding Hood.             The sequel features the voices of an all-star ensemble cast including Hayden Panettiere, Glenn Close, Joan Cusack, Bill Hader, Amy Poehler, Patrick Warburton, David Alan Grier, Andy Dick, Brad Garrett, Martin Short, Heidi Klum, Wayne Newton, Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong.</p>
<p>HOODWINKED TOO! HOOD VS. EVIL is available for a SRP of $39.99 for the 3D Blu-ray™ 4-Pack, which includes a 3D Blu-ray™, Blu-ray™, standard definition DVD, and Digital Copy of the film; $34.99 for the Blu-ray™ and DVD Combo Pack; and $29.98 for the standard definition DVD.</p>
<p>Here’s what the critics have to say about HOODWINKED TOO! HOOD VS. EVIL:  “Hilarious!” (Nell Minow The Chicago Sun-Times)  “Innovative! A superb sequel and entertaining treat for the whole family.” (Judith Manigault, Family Media)  “A procession of pop-culture send-ups delivered at light speed, interspersed with affirmative messages about exercise, proper diet and – so refreshing in this kind of movie – girl power.” (The New York Times)</p>
<p>The good&#8230; the bad&#8230; the Twitchy.  HOODWINKED TOO! HOOD VS. EVIL finds our heroine, Red (Hayden Panettiere), training with a mysterious covert group called the Sisters of the Hood.  But Red is forced to cut her training short when she gets an urgent call from Nicky Flippers (David Ogden Stiers), the head of the super secret Happily Ever After Agency, aka the HEA.  A wicked witch (Joan Cusack) has abducted two innocent children, Hansel (Bill Hader) and Gretel (Amy Poehler), and Nicky needs the whole Hoodwinked gang – Red, Granny (Glenn Close), the ever-clueless Wolf (Patrick Warburton) and his over-caffeinated little partner, Twitchy (Cory Edwards) – for the search and rescue mission.</p>
<p>Fracturing fairy tales and pop culture with good-natured glee, HOODWINKED  TOO!  HOOD VS. EVIL takes viewers on a rollicking rollercoaster ride combining edge-of-the-seat adventure with classic, zany cartoon antics.</p>
<p>The HOODWINKED TOO! HOOD VS. EVIL 3D Blu-ray™, Blu-ray™, and DVD bonus features include music videos by Hayden Panettiere (“I Can Do It Alone”), Lavay Cole (“You Know It”) and CEEJ (“Perfect Two”); a “The Voices of Hoodwinked Too!” featurette; storyboard sequences; production artwork; and video game applications.  Note: Special features are subject to change.</p>
