‘Bitch Slap’ Gets March DVD Date
Unlike any “B” movie ever seen! Assume the position and prepare to get slapped as bodacious bad girls, fervent brawls and slow-motion cat fights explode in the adrenaline-fueled, deliciously over-the-top Bitch Slap, coming to Unrated DVD March 2 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. Get the full skinny below.
/>Trixie, Hel and Camero may look good on the outside, but they’re nothing but badass on the inside. When the tempting trio arrive in the desert to retrieve stolen jewels at a ruthless gangster’s hideout, they find themselves competing against an assortment of bizarre criminals – and each other. But what else can one expect from a down-on-her luck stripper, a drug-running killer and a ball-busting businesswoman? Bounding with violence and excess galore, Bitch Slap is a wildly explosive tribute to the sensationalistic style of the cult exploitation genre and a modern throwback to the “B” movie film genre.
The audacious and excessive action flick stars a sexy young cast, including Julia Voth, Erin Cummings, America Olivo, alongside tenacious cameos by Kevin Sorbo (“Hercules: The Legendary Journeys”), Michael Hurst (“Hercules: The Legendary Journeys”), Lucy Lawless (“Xena: Warrior Princess”) and Renee O’Connor (“Xena: Warrior Princess”). Already boasting a cult fan following and a #1 trailer spot on Hulu, the Bitch Slap Unrated DVD includes commentary by cast and crew and a behind-the-scenes documentary featurette and will be available for the suggested retail price of $22.98 U.S. Prebook is February 3.

Get ready for double the fun, protagonists, and body count when Ready or Not 2: Here I Come explodes on streaming next week.
Just in time for the fireworks, the sequel makes its streaming debut on Hulu and Disney+ on July 2.
Directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin & Tyler Gillett are back, along with Samara Weaving, for more hide and slay mayhem.
Picking up moments after the all-out attack from the Le Domas family in the first Ready or Not movie, Grace (Weaving) discovers she’s reached the next level of the nightmarish game — and this time with her estranged sister Faith (Kathryn Newton) at her side. Grace has one chance to survive, keep her sister alive, and claim the High Seat of the Council that controls the world. Four rival families are hunting her for the throne, and whoever wins rules it all.
That means a higher body count and even more explosive carnage. Just how much? A whopping 325 gallons worth, the directors previously told BD.
Sarah Michelle Gellar, Shawn Hatosy, Néstor Carbonell, David Cronenberg, Elijah Wood, Kevin Durand, Olivia Cheng, Varun Saranga, and Daniel Beirne also star.
I wrote in my review for Bloody Disgusting, “More is more in Ready or Not 2. Bigger stakes, larger playing field, a higher (and more gruesome) body count, and even double the protagonists. It’s all designed to deliver maximum crowd-pleasing fun.”
The horror-comedy sequel is written by Guy Busick and R. Christopher Murphy.
