All right, I wanted to check in here today with one more update.

I believe we finally have the site stable, but just quick note: If you see a message that says “Performing Security Verification…” that is 100% normal. We’re using Cloudflare to verify actual human Bits readers from AI bots trying to scrape the site.

The good news is that it’s definitely helping—the site is much more stable now.

And we have a couple things to share with you all here today.

First, we have more new disc reviews, including…

My take on the Wachowskis’ Speed Racer (2008) in 4K Ultra HD from Warner Bros. as well as Ric Roman Waugh’s Greenland (2020) in 4K Ultra HD from Lionsgate.

Tim’s looks at Richard Fleischer’s Red Sonja (1985) in 4K from Arrow Video, as well as John Binder’s UFOria (1983) in 4K Ultra HD from Kino Lorber Studio Classics, and Kuei Chih-Hung’s Killer Constable (1980) on Blu-ray from Arrow’s Shawscope: Volume 3 box set.

Among the offerings will be great titles from the likes of Warner Home Video, Kino Lorber, Shout! and Scream Factory, Scorpion Releasing, and more.

As usual, we’ll be rolling each review out one at a time all week, so be sure to check back for new ones.  [Read on here…]
