New on Blu-ray: EVOLUTION (2001) Starring David Duchovny, Orlando Jones and Julianne Moore

BUY FROM AMAZON

Product Description: The spirit of the mega-hit Ghostbusters (1984) is intentionally recalled with this effects-heavy sci-fi comedy from the same director, Ivan Reitman, co-starring Dan Aykroyd and debuting on the 17th anniversary of the earlier film's release. When a meteor bearing single-celled organisms crashes to the Earth, the life forms are initially confined to a cave. Before long the creatures are evolving at an exponentially rapid rate, resulting in fearsome aliens running amok and possibly spelling mankind's doom, or at least the end of man's domination over life on Earth. Investigating the phenomenon is a community college professor, Ira Kane (David Duchovny), his geologist friend Harry Block (Orlando Jones), wannabe fireman Wayne Green (Seann William Scott), and government scientist Allison Reed (Julianne Moore). Evolution also stars Ted Levine, Ethan Suplee, and Katharine Towne.

New on Blu-ray: THE TIME MACHINE (2002) Starring Guy Pearce

BUY FROM AMAZON

Product Description: The classic science fiction novel by H.G. Wells becomes this big-budget adventure directed by the author's great-grandson Simon Wells. Guy Pearce stars as Alexander Hartdegen, a scientist, professor, and inventor in 1895 New York City who believes that time travel is possible. The sudden and unexpected death of his fiancée spurs Alexander to build a time machine, which he hopes to use in an effort to change the past. When he is unable to change the past, Alexander hurls himself more than 800,000 years into the future, seeking answers about the nature of time, but instead encountering a dystopian world where humanity has divided up into two races, the peaceful Eloi and the subterranean Morlocks. Befriending the beautiful Eloi woman Mara (pop singer Samantha Mumba), Alexander must set out to save her from the underground world of the Morlocks when she is captured by them. Along the way, he is aided by Vox (Orlando Jones), a bio-mechanical being from the 21st century. Ultimately, Alexander makes a shocking discovery about the true nature of the Eloi and Morlocks and decides that the only way to change the future is to alter the present. Due to exhaustion, director Wells was briefly replaced during the last few weeks of production by Gore Verbinski, director of The Mexican (2001). The Time Machine co-stars Jeremy Irons and Mark Addy.

AMERICAN GODS Trailers, Clips, Featurettes, Images and Poster

The new Starz series "American Gods" premieres tonight at 9p. The show is adapted by Bryan Fuller ("Hannibal") and Michael Green ("Logan") from Neil Gaiman's novel of the same name. The first episode is directed by David Slade ("Hard Candy").

The fantasy series imagines a world in which gods exist, as long as people believe in them. That's why in humanity's modern society, their powers have been decreasing. This has given room for other gods to rise, gods that reflect modern day obsessions, like money, technology, and celebrity. Now, a war is brewing between the Old and New gods.

The cast features Ricky Whittle, Ian McShane, Emily Browning, Pablo Schreiber, Orlando Jones, Crispin Glover, Gillian Anderson, Kristin Chenoweth, Cloris Leachman, Peter Stormare and Corbin Bernsen.
