Think of any movie and chances are it was released by Eureka Entertainment at one point or another; from Wake in Fright to Mr. Vampire. Based in the UK, the quality and presentation of Eureka’s contribution to physical media are unmatched.
What did people do before the Internet? Apparently, they drove frivolously during violent thunderstorms, sat around, and tried to impress one another with their views on life.

Looney Tunes was my introduction to Edward G. Robinson who Buggs Bunny would regularly impersonate, most famously in the 1946 cartoon short Racketeer Rabbit. Interestingly the first movie I saw Robinson in was Soylent Green, which was sadly his last. Now fans can enjoy the liver-lipped actor at his meanest in the bleak obscure classic

I assumed for years that Tank Girl was a movie about the band, No Doubt, based on the old MGM DVD that I would walk past constantly at a local supermarket. Turns out that’s not Gwen Stefani on the cover, but rather Lori Petty, a girl warrior in a post-apocalyptic Australia where a corporate tyrant

What do you do when Queen Elizabeth II pays a ceremonial visit to your capital city? That’s right, capture as much cheeky footage as possible and then weave it into a haywire action-filled crime-adventure starring one-time James Bond actor, George Lazenby – and the result will be A Queen’s Ransom, available now on Blu-ray from
