Ed Decter's combination high-school/prison comedy, The New Guy, comes to DVD with a pair of transfers. The widescreen anamorphic transfer preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio, and is preferable to the standard full-frame image. English soundtracks are rendered in both Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS 5.1, while a French soundtrack has also been recorded in Dolby Digital 5.1. Supplemental materials include the original theatrical trailer. This is a solid release from Columbia/TriStar that will satisfy fans of the film.
Eliza Dushku returns for the second season of Dollhouse, Joss Whedon's slick sci-fi endeavor following an underground company that renders people into "dolls" after wiping their memories and imprinting a new personality based on the likes of the highest bidder. Echo (Dushku), has begun to retain fragments of herself, and begins to wreak havoc for the evildoers at the Rossum Corporation.
