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.

A really mild week for releases, at least when it comes to quantity. Quality is still top of the line as Arrow, Severin and Scream Factory are all offering up multiple titles this week. Blood Rage is the release after my heart this week.
