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.

Small week of releases but some really good stuff. We’ve got Wonder Woman, a new animated Starship Troopers movie and The Bad Batch. The big one though? John Landis’ Innocent Blood from Warner Archive. That’s a must have for every horror collection and you can snag it just before Halloween!
