First-time writer-director Bryan Johnson may be best known as a member of filmmaker Kevin Smith's View Askew universe (he played Steve-Dave in MALLRATS and DOGMA), but those expecting VULGAR to be another version of CLERKS might be surprised by this off-kilter drama that is best described as Bozo the Clown meets DELIVERANCE. Brian O'Halloran (Dante from CLERKS) plays Will, aka Flappy the Clown, an earnest, downtrodden guy desperately trying to make a living as a clown. Will is a constant target of abuse--from the drunks flinging projectiles on his ratty lawn to his nursing home-bound mother's streams of vitriol. Barely scraping by, Will has an epiphany about how to make more money--by hiring himself out for bachelor parties as Vulgar, a clown sporting a bustier and garters. On his first outing, Will instead finds himself in a terrifying situation with the psychotic Ed (Jerry Lewkovitz) and his two inbred sons. After a life-changing violation that Will only reveals to his friend, Syd (Johnson), some luck finally comes his way via a television executive (a cameo from Kevin Smith). However, more trouble awaits the put-upon clown in Johnson's dark, disturbing tale.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull ScreenAudio: Dolby Digital Stereo - EnglishAdditional Release Material: TrailerInteractive Features: Interactive Menus Scene Selection

This slick adaptation of Elmore Leonard's 1990 novel features John Travolta as Chili Palmer, a Miami loan shark who's been sent to L.A. to collect on a bad debt from trash movie producer Harry Zimm (Gene Hackman), the maker of the stunning flops Grotesque and Slime People. But this is Harry's lucky day, because Chili is also a film buff, and when he's done talking tough he starts pitching Harry a script idea. As everyone knows, the best background for the motion picture industry is the criminal underworld, and Chili is smoothly launched into the life of a producer: romancing a B-movie scream queen, schmoozing superstars, getting reservations in the hottest restaurants in town. However, Chili's not the only mobster wanting to turn producer. It seems that a thug named Bo Catlett (Delroy Lindo), another of Harry's lenders, also wants a piece of the action. Add in a group of angry drug smugglers and there is an abundance of double- and triple-crosses, as well as plenty of wisecracks and Hollywood insider jokes. GET SHORTY crosses the line of life imitating art--and vice versa--many times, including the real Ernest Chili Palmer (on whom the character is based) playing a Mafia henchman. Barry Sonnenfeld's entertaining romp is a wild look at the celebrity life in Hollywood, featuring numerous cameos of stars playing themselves.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseWidescreen - 1.85Full Frame - 1.33Single Side - Single LayerAudio: Dolby Digital 5.1 - English Dolby Digital 5.1 - French Dolby Digital Stereo - SpanishAdditional Release Material: TrailerAdditional Products: Collectible Booklet

When Ian (Jeffrey Sharmat) and his dog Bentley go off to grandma's for the summer, it is not expected to be fun-filled until they meet Jules (Stephanie Sawyer), the pretty tomboy who lives next door. Being as curious as kids are, Ian and Jules plan to explore a haunted mansion where the old and weird Franklin Lyle (Ernest Borgnine) resides. The story continues when the kids run into the slimy Jimmy Murano (Jason Hervey) and his equally devilish lawyer pal Camille (Bonnie Cahoon) who are feverishly trying to run Franklin off of his estate. Ian and Jules decide they want to help the old man by racing to solve an old mystery that will determine who gets the property.
