We have gotten a lot of really awesome stuff in lately! Check out today’s haul:

Classic westerns from Sam Peckinpah: The Wild Bunch in the 2 disc special edition and The Ballad Of Cable Hogue.

Cult-comedy favorites like The Blues Brothers, Cheech and Chong’s Up In Smoke, Repo Man, The Adventures Of Buckaroo Banzai Across The Eighth Dimension and Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas in the Criterion Collection edition.

Cult-horror classics, too! Peter Jackson’s Dead Alive, An American Werewolf In London and some serious madness in From Beyond. And let’s not forget the camp sci-fi classic Robot Monster, featuring a … gorilla in a space helmet! We also have The Classic Sci-Fi Ultimate Collection Volume 2 featuring Dr. Cyclops, Cult Of The Cobra, The Land Unknown, The Deadly Mantis and The Leech Woman.

And that’s not all! Get a little mystery in your life with the amazing The Boys From Brazil or perhaps you’d prefer Fargo or maybe American Psycho?

Whatever floats your boat or blows up your skirt, we’re sure to have something for you, so come on in and see us!

It’s yet another gorgeous day in Ballard and if you don’t get out and enjoy it you only have yourself to blame. Perhaps one or more of the recent arrivals on our new trades wall will entice you out into the sun long enough to come into the store.

How about Gary’s all-time number one favorite movie Boogie Nights? Perhaps a more comical look at the subject of s-e-x (can you whisper in text?) in Woody Allen’s Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Sex But Were Afraid To Ask (which bears little resemblance to the book of the same name, just FYI) and also The 40-Year-Old Virgin.  And while we’re on the subject, maybe you want to visit the darker side of the street in Todd Solondz’s Happiness. Or maybe American Beauty.

Maybe you’re after a gritty crime drama? One of my all-time favorites in the genre is L.A. Confidential, and there’s one here just waiting for you to take it home, dear readers. We also have Reservoir Dogs in the Mr. Brown edition for the collectors out there and Fargo, too! Or how about one of Jack Nicholson’s finest performances in One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest, probably the best movie about not-so-crazy crazy people ever (look for early performances from Danny DeVito and Christopher Lloyd!).

We seem to be scratching the darker underbelly of our new arrivals in this post, but fear not! I’ve saved a handful of the more light-hearted titles for last.  First up we have The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou, The Wiz (yes, the Motown version of The Wizard Of Oz, with Michael Jackson, Diana Ross, Richard Pryor, Lena Horne and Nipsey Russel!) and finally, a trio from Trey Parker and Matt Stone: South Park Bigger, Longer and Uncut, Baseketball, and the best musical about real-life cannibal Alfred Packer ever made: Cannibal! The Musical. I couldn’t make that up.

Whatever your tastes, I’m sure there’s something here to satisfy you, so come on in and see us. We don’t bite.
