"The Eye"

Jessica Alba plays a successful, yet blind, violinist. Instead of leaving everything well enough alone, she has double cornea transplants to correct the blindness. Everything seems to be going well until she starts seeing frightening images through her new eyeballs.

"Meet the Spartans"

Don't buy or rent this DVD. For the love of all that is good in the world, do not do it. Horrible parodies have got to stop being made. That's exactly what this movie is and exactly why it needs to die a slow death on the DVD shelves. Stop the insanity, America.

"The Onion Movie"

Just to be clear, parodies are bad. Satire, on the other hand, is good. The Onion takes their special brand of satire to DVD. The movie follows Onion News anchor Norm ARcher (Len Cariou) after he is asked to compromise his journalistic integrity to please a new sponsor. Joel McHale co-stars.

"Semi-Pro"

Will Ferrell stars as Jackie Moon, a 1976 superstar singer, who uses his one-hit wonder cash to buy a semi-pro basketball team. Unfortunately for Moon he's bought the worst team in the league. Even the league is in dire straights and with an NBA merger imminent, Moon's team has to improve or disband. Woody Harrelson and Andre Benjamin co-star.

"Vince Vaughn's Wild West Comedy Show"

Vince Vaughn uses his star power to fill audiences for a group of stand-up comedians. Jon Favreau, Justin Long, Ahmed Ahmed, and others make appearances. The film made a small theatrical debut in February.
