DVD. Feature film. Rated PG-13. Stereo. 109 min.

A toy company believes it is onto something when it employs the latest government military technology in a series of action figures, enabling them to talk. They underestimate the power of the special micro chips they've employed, however, as the two opposing sides of the toy line start thinking for themselves and engaging in real combat. The Commando Elite (belligerent war toys) vow to wipe out the Gorgonites (kindhearted misfit fantasy creature figures) in a suburban neighborhood. A young boy, with the help of the kind Gorgonites, must protect his home and family from the Commandos. Listen for the voices of Spinal Tap (Mike McKean, Chris Guest, and Harry Shearer) as Gorgonite Voices as well as Sarah Michelle Gellar and Christina Ricci (as the voices of evil, mutated Barbie dolls).

The dumpster where the Gorgonites hide from the Commando elite contains a figure of "Gizmo", the original Gremlin from Joe Dante's smash hit GREMLINS. Larry Benson (Jay Mohr) uses the password "Gizmo" to gain access to Globotech's computers. In a reference to Dante's GREMLINS character. George Kennedy, Clint Walker, Ernest Borgnine, and Jim Brown unite to play the voices of the Elite Commando soldiers. In 1967 these actors appeared together as soldiers in the WWII film, THE DIRTY DOZEN. The cast from THIS IS SPINAL TAP (Christopher Guest, Harry Shearer, and Michael McKean) play the voices of the Gorgonites.

Small Soldiers Reviews:

"...GREMLINS director Joe Dante achieves a great balance between playfulness and maliciousness here..."-- Phil Hoad, Total Film

"...Striking effects..." -- Jonathan Romney, Sight and Sound

"...First-rate special effects..." -- Mike Clark, USA Today

"...The voice talent here is extraordinary....The figures themselves are impressive accomplishments..."-- Janet Maslin, New York Times

"...SMALL SOLDIERS does boast quite a bit of ingenuity and humor. The animation is excellent, as is the figure design, and the voice cast alone is worth the price of admission..." -- Christine James, Box Office

"...The special effects, a mix of computer animation, animatronics, and live action, are an advanced version of what Dante achieved on 1984's GREMLINS..."-- Christine Spines, Premiere

In Tim Burton's stylish, creepy retelling of the classic Washington Irving story, SLEEPY HOLLOW, Ichabod Crane (Johnny Depp) is a squeamish, bookish 18th century New York City investigator sent to a small town in lower Westchester county to look into three mysterious decapitations. When the always rational Crane arrives at the little Dutch village, he finds that most of the townsfolk believe the culprit to be the Headless Horseman, the ghost of a monstrous Hessian soldier (Christopher Walken), who seems to be mysteriously tied in to one of the town's most prominent families. Burton's natural instincts for campy humor, combined with the hauntingly gorgeous ...

Closed Captioned; Additional Footage; Soundtrack English; English Subtitles A ramped-up techno soundtrack bleats out adrenaline-pumping action tunes while leather-clad vampire slayers smash through walls and floors and ceilings, break windows with their bodies, and occasionally defy gravity. Cascades of flying glass sparkle in the air and crimson pools of blood shine on the floors of warehouse dens where the hungry creatures hide. This is BLADE: TRINITY, the third installment of the film series adapted from Marvel comics. Here, a new challenge faces the preternaturally sharp hunter, Blade (Wesley Snipes), when a group of vamps resurrect the long-slumbering "Drake" (Dominic Purcell)--the ancient and all-powerful Count Dracula--and Blade meets the ultimate opponent. Teaming up with the Nightstalkers, a group of similar-minded hunters ...

"The House of No Return" is what the kids call the old abandoned mansion, but it's all just local lore, right?

Unfortunately, no one lasts that long, they all run away screaming. The club sets its sights on the new kid, Chris, but when he doesn't even come out after an hour, the members start to wonder if their little hazing has backfired on them. Is ...
