"Sith" Is In The "House"

When I opened my mailbox today, I was surprised to find that my DVD order from Deep Discount DVD had arrived earlier than expected, given the package contents.

The order included a copy of the updated version of House Of Wax--while I admit the new incarnation doesn't really match the fun and nostalgia of the 1953 version with Vincent Price--it still has enough of the right ingredients that a slasher film needs to make it work.

The other DVD in the box was Episode III . Of the 3 Star Wars Prequels, this last one was by far, the best one and almost made sitting through Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace or Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones worthwhile. Since Sith got to me a full day before it was scheduled for distribution, it's a safe bet that I will be watching it tonight, in order to post a full review of The Sith 2 Disc DVD Set at some point very soon.

In the meantime, I hope everyone has a Happy (and safe) Halloween, and be sure to save some
peanut M&Ms for me.
