New arrivals this week on home video include: the campy, and hilariously gory Drive Angry, starring Nicolas Cage; Stanley Kubrick’s Lolita, George Lucas’ American Graffiti and Ridley Scott’s Legend, all on Blu-ray for the first time; plus a look at True Blood: The Complete Third Season.

Hollywood gets serious about blockbusters this week with the return of a film icon people have been talking about for weeks. As anyone will tell you, Indiana Jones is back this weekend, and he has a lot to make up for after his nearly 20-year absence. With few other studios interested in taking on this huge franchise, there is really only one other film going up against Indy’s whip: Uwe Boll‘s latest disaster, Postal.
“Snakes. Why’d it have to be snakes?” Those classic lines still make me smile, and since Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull lands in theatres later this month, what better time for Paramount to re-release all three of Indy’s adventures? Also arriving this week is the grim thriller Untraceable, classic movies from Warner and Fox, and the girly comedy, Mad Money.
