Here are your Punch Drunk DVD's for the week of July 24th. You can buy or rent any of these great titles by clicking the title link!
Silent House This first mainstream outing for Martha Marcy May Marlene star Elizabeth Olsen was a little to reliant on it's single take gimmick and too light on scares. Still it delivers enough suspense and shivers to satisfy most Friday night couch potatoes and will be a solid rental for most. I honestly don't see a reason to buy this one (unless it's too help support your Punch Drunk Critics!), but if your looking for a fresh horror flick definitely pop this one up on Amazon Instant Video!
Side Note: Who in God's named approved this poster? Elizabeth Olsen is a natural beauty, but they managed to make her look like the little kids from 'The Grudge'!

Meeting Evil: A straight to home video release starring Samuel L. Jackson and Luke "How did my brother get more famous" Wilson Meeting Evil is a movie I can't recommend as I haven't actually seen it. That's not going to stop me from telling you I'm definitely watching this over the weekend. SLJ stars as a mysterious stranger who shows up at John's (Luke Wilson) doorstep asking for help with his car and end's up delivering hell on earth to John's world. Sam Jackson as a lunatic is something I will ALWAYS want to watch.

Jiro Dreams of Sushi: A must watch for big time sushi fans, Jiro is an 86-year old sushi chef who's largely considered the world's greatest at what he does. The part that gets me is that he serves this delicacy not in a gourmet eatery exclusive only to the stars but in a 10 seat eatery in a subway station. While I'm limited to the California roll our resident Sushi connoisseur Travis has given this documentary his full approval and says it's a must watch for raw fish fans!
