DVD Picks – February 1, 2011 – Monsters, Let Me In, Never Let Me Go, and More

My main pick this week is the independent monster film Monsters, which I saw at the Toronto Film Festival last year.  The film notable for its more realistic take on giant monster films. On to the picks.

Monsters

My Thoughts: A realistic take on monster films that concentrates more on the human element.
My Recommendation: Rent It

Let Me In
Blu-Ray – $26.99 (CAN), $19.99 (US)

My Recommendation: Rent It
