Gets the job done!
on December 18, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
Excellent little device for music and surprisingly, audio books as well (tested with Audible books). Requires a computer to transfer Audible to the Device - something to keep in mind.
Overall, it does what it needs to do for such a small, easy to carry around MP3 Player. The one major drawback is that its ability to 'Resume' an Audiobook actually can take anywhere from 1 to 3 minutes, especially if the audiobook is very long (tested with 40 hour book).

Would you revive your cat in the Pet Sematary?
on December 14, 2016
Posted by: MarkTwainTimeTraveler
Verified Purchase:Yes
... because it may not be the same kitty you remember. ;(
So here is Pet Sematary looking as good as ever on Bluray, or at least as it good as it gets at this time. The audio is actually better than the video quality, but for the price of admission - that shouldn't matter much. There aren't much extras on this release.
If you like Stephen King and/or adaptations of his work, for a B-Movie, it comes off as highly disturbing in more ways than one. You can thank the King for his wonderfully peculiar mind.

Killer Klowns on Bluray
on December 14, 2016
Posted by: MarkTwainTimeTraveler
Verified Purchase:Yes
Killer Klowns has got to be one of the silliest Schlock Horror films that arrived out of the late 1980s. The perfect movie to watch on a Friday Night.
This a modern restoration using a MPEG-4 AVC and DTS-HD Master Audio. The video quality however is much better than the audio quality, which dips at certain points. The Bluray release contains 11 extra goodies to sift through as well.
Overall, a B-Movie worth collecting.
Its a very colorful film and very hilarious.

Creepy, Stephen King Horror
on December 14, 2016
Posted by: MarkTwainTimeTraveler
Verified Purchase:Yes
When I saw that this was finally receiving a Bluray release, of course I had to pick it up.
This movie is based on Stephen King's second published novel, Salem's Lot, and while differing from it - is still plenty creepy. Salem's Lot originally aired as a TV Mini-Series and was given a Home Release on DVD. This is the longer Home Release version remastered for Bluray.
The restoration for this film is phenomenal and definitely worth the cheap price.

It Bleeds on Bluray too
on December 14, 2016
Posted by: MarkTwainTimeTraveler
Verified Purchase:Yes
And even better so on Bluray.
What's not to like about this movie? If you're a collector and don't yet have it on Bluray, the Ultimate Hunter Edition is definitely the one to get. It utilizes a modern codec compared to previous releases and simply looks better than ever.
As for new time viewers, don't miss out on one of Arnold's early classics.

The Thing - Collector's Edition finally!
on December 14, 2016
Posted by: MarkTwainTimeTraveler
Verified Purchase:Yes
Classic Sci-Fi Horror from the 80s finally gets a proper bluray release by Scream Factory. It looks better than ever and is packed with plenty of great extras including a lot of vintage footage and commentaries.
The Thing is truly one of John Carpenter's original classics. It's worth a watch for the excellent, early days of practical effects alone. The story takes place in a remote station in Antarctica in which the crew encounter 'something' that quickly spreads an extreme sense of paranoia.

A classic animated film
on December 2, 2016
Posted by: MarkTwainTimeTraveler
Verified Purchase:Yes
The Land Before Time; now here's a classic tale you shouldn't pass up. I fondly remember this one when it first released on VHS in 1989, now updated in beautiful high-def widescreen. It looked great then and looks even better now.
If you're a collector, definitely pick this up. As for the film itself - Its good as any Disney film, despite not being one with a superb, classic animation style. Highly recommend it for your kids as well despite the heartbreaking moments. A heart-warming tale with cute dinosaurs, while shockingly depicting the harsh reality of all life. Tragedy definitely plays a big theme in this film in coming to understand loss, but also provides a message to never give up.

Eliminate the malevolent Metroid threat in Metroid: Samus Returns Special Edition. Play as bounty hunter Samus Aran as you unravel in-game mysteries and use brand new Aeion-fueled moves to blast through challenges. Made especially for Nintendo 3DS, Metroid: Samus Returns Special Edition comes with a soundtrack CD and a title sheet insert for the game’s case.
 

Why is this still not available to pre-order? It has been listed on Gamestop for months already :(

I believe it was available for pre-order at one point or if I am wrong, they may have been preventing buyers from getting more than one.

How do the Clip Sport and Clip Jam compare? Want one for audiobooks.

Clip Jam = 18 hour battery life
Clip Sport = 25 hours battery life

What makes this a "Sport" version? Is it waterproof, resistant, use in steamroom, etc..?

Hello, Mark Twain here.

In comparing this "Sport Clip" version device to a Non-"Sport" of the same storage capacity of 8GB such as a "Clip Jam"; the only difference according to the box is longer battery life (25 hours), and a hinge-clip on the back to snap to your britches.
