Chances are strong that if you’ve got a “DVD man”, you’ve  already seen this or at least heard about it.  Not judging you but let's show a little love on April 4.Halle Berry stars in a story about a woman dealing with multiple personality disorder in the 1970s, and based on a true account.  Click here for more details.

Now before you start, watch the trailer below to remember how we first fell in major like with Ms. Berry.

Just in Time For Halloween-Carol Speed

Clients are coming left and right but I thought I'd stop by and share a gem I discovered about a year ago.

Carol Speed had a short career and I found it interesting that she had a brief part in 1997's 'Jackie Brown but was cut at the last minute.  Hmm
Here she shares some other accounts with the Original Foxy Brown as well as her short stint in Hollyweird.

A video I'm having a hard time finding is Abby.  The stunts are a little better than TNT but from what I've seen online (I was six when this was in major release and my mother was not about to let me see it), it sounds like it would make for a good weekend.  Then again, I never get tired of the original Blacula.

Black to the Present - Summer 2011

N-Secure -This movie, which was released nationwide late last year is about a man who gives new meaning to the expression "anal retentive" and I won't give too much more away except to say that the casting was very interesting, including a serious blast from the past who makes a quickie appearance.
If you like serious suspense without needing to call in someone under 15 to interpret the slang, then this is an excellent way to spend a quiet Saturday night. I had the pleasure of meeting the director, David M. Matthews via a social networking site recently and hope to hear more from him in the near future.

On the flipside of my Redbox adventures is The Hustle.  Despite having an all-star cast (Charlie Murphy, David Alan Grier and at least ten other people that were once on the WB/CW/the first two Friday movies), this wasn't the worst thing but an interesting rumor is that this was made in 2008 but just now in DVD release.  At least there were no bad jokes about the deceased ...*coughs*The Salon/Anna Nicole*coughs...but then again, I may have nodded off.

Here goes the plot.  The brothers that "work" as exterminators come into some gangster money, which they need because they eventually lose their jobs.  However, by a strange turn of events, they land the ultimate hustle -- becoming preachers to a congregation that is misguided to say the least.
