Each week here at Bloody Disgusting we like to highlight some of the new Blu-ray releases hitting shelves across the world. Please note that this isn’t every release for the week, just a few of the ones that jumped out at us.

This is one of those weeks that really makes you appreciate the time we’re living in. So many amazing releases out in one week. Dolemite is a great release that I never expected to see on Blu-ray. It’s an absolute must. I also included some animation releases from Kino Lorber that most definitely aren’t horror, but they’re pretty cool and I had to give them a shoutout.
