DVD/Blu-Ray Alert: The Cabin in the Woods and The Raid

It's a brilliant coincidence that my two favourite films of the year so far are both getting a DVD/Blu-ray release on the same day - Monday 24th September. The films in question are the action-packed The Raid and the brilliantly original slasher film The Cabin in the Woods.

The Raid is an Indonesian martial-arts spectacle that follows our hero Rama (Iko Uwais - remember that name!) as he tries to take down an apartment complex jam-packed with criminals. The film is written and directed by the incredibly talented Welshman Gareth Evans.

Alternatively, you might like to check out American horror film, The Cabin in the Woods, directed by Drew Goddard and co-written by him and Joss Whedon. The film lovingly takes every horror cliché going and makes something wholly original that manages to be both scary and hilarious.

Enjoy and happy viewing!
