Welcome to ComingSoon.net’s look at all the top entertainment hitting this week on Blu-ray and DVD. Check out the gallery viewer below for a look at the major new releases, catalogue titles and television collections hitting shelves on Tuesday, July 7, 2015.
Arnold Schwarzenegger may be on the big screen now battling time-traveling robots, but it wasn’t that long ago that he was caring for his zombie daughter in Maggie, one of the recent big screen releases coming home to Blu-ray and DVD this week. In a similar vein, we’ve got Slow West, the offbeat western starring Michael Fassbender and Kodi Smit-McPhee; Kill Me Three Times, the crime thriller starring Simon Pegg; 5 Flights Up, a light-hearted comedy drama starring Morgan Freeman and Diane Keaton; and Woman in Gold, the true story of Maria Altmann (Helen Mirren) who, years after surviving WWII, fought to reclaim art stolen from her family by the Nazis.
Also hitting home video from a recent theatrical run is the documentary Deli Man, which takes a look at the inner workings of modern delis and analyzes their larger importance as a part of Jewish culture.
With the sequel set to arrive later this month, the original Joe Dirt is getting its first-ever Blu-ray release while, also on the catalogue title front, Shout! Factory is delivering Stuart Gordon’s sci-fi cult classic Robot Jox in a new special edition.
Criterion, meanwhile, is upgrading its double feature of The Killers to Blu-ray. The set includes two feature-length adaptations of the Ernest Hemingway tale. One directed by Robert Siodmak in 1946 and another by Don Siegel in 1964. There’s even a third, short film version from the legendary Andrei Tarkovsky.
Finally, Netflix‘s hit series brings its latest season to physical media with House of Cards: Season Three, including all 13 episodes of the acclaimed drama.
