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.

Welcome to another week of Blu-ray releases! The big one this week is of course Alien: Covenant. The film received mixed responses from many, but it’s sure to be a popular pickup for those looking to make sure their Alien Blu-ray set is complete. If you’re looking for something a little older Shout Factory has you covered with Missing In Action. The release I have been dying to get my hands on though has to be Kino Lorber’s The Good, the Bad and The Ugly. Not the first Blu-ray release of the film, and likely not the last, but I’m eager to see what Kino Lorber was able to do with it. Happy collecting!
