Our weekly look at what’s weird in theaters, on hot-off-the-presses DVDs and Blu-rays (and hot off the server VODs), and on more distant horizons…
Trailers of new release movies are generally available at the official site links.
NEW ON HOME VIDEO:
Bugonia (2025): Read Gregory J. Smalley’s Apocrypha Candidate review. The Bugonia Blu-ray dropped two days before Christmas (showing you just how much big studios value new-releases on physical media these days). Buy Bugonia. Also available in 4K UHD or 4K Steelbook editions (both come with standard Blu-rays included).
Dream Story [Traumnovelle] (2024): A man attends an erotic ball put on by a secret society of debauchees. A low-budget German based on (but more faithful to) the same source material as Stanley Kubrick‘s Eyes Wide Shut, starring Nikolai “son of Klaus” Kinski. Click here for the NSFW trailer. On VOD only. Rent or buy Dream Story.
Perfect Blue (1997): Read the Canonically Weird entry! Shout! Factory’s lavish 4K edition of Satoshi Kon‘s anime psychological horror (released two days before Christmas, sadly) includes a 4K UHD disc, standard Blu-ray, booklet, art cards, poster, almost two hours of never-before-seen lectures from Kon, and more. Buy Perfect Blue.
NEPOTISM CORNER:
Davy & the Goblin: Giles Edwards (as Orson Bennet portraying Old Reuben Hayseed) narrates this “odd little children’s novel from 1884” (audio only).
WHAT’S IN THE PIPELINE:
We resume Pod 366 next week after Christmas break with our official unveiling of the staff’s consensus picks for Weirdest Movies of 2025. Meanwhile, we continue with written content: Micheal Diamades addresses the post-socialist, pre-Satanist Working Class Goes to Hell, Enar Clarke chews on the Criterion Collection’s selection of Man Ray shorts, Return to Reason, Shane Wilson dives back into the reader-suggestion queue for 1999’s The Adolescence of Utena, and (alongside that staff list of weird movies) Gregory J. Smalley shares his list of his personal top 10 of his favorite mainstream movies of 2025 with you. Happy Boxing Day to all who celebrate!
