Garv’s Pick of the Week: The Great Buster (Cohen Media Group)

For the release week of April 2nd:

Last week was a particularly heavy release week.  This week, not so much.  Still, there are a handful of titles of interest.

Garv’s Pick of the Week: The Great Buster: A Celebration [Blu-ray / Cohen Media Group]: I thought that Kevin Brownlow’s Buster Keaton: A Hard Act to Follow was the definitive documentary on one of the greatest comedians in the history of the medium.  However, I’m still interested in checking out Peter Bogdanovich’s tribute to Buster.  Hopefully, this film will act as a gateway to interest new audiences in Buster Keaton’s amazing work.

Additional Titles of Interest —

Terra Formars [Blu-ray / Arrow Video]: Prolific Japanese director Takashi Miike takes on the sci-fi and comic book genres with this Manga adaptation about a team of space explorers battling against giant cockroaches. Basically, it’s his Starship Troopers. Hopefully, it’s better than Starship Troopers.

The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot [Blu-ray / RLJ Entertainment]: The title says it all.
