The reimagining of “Clash of the Titans” is out now on Blu-ray, DVD, On Demand and Digital Download from Warner Home Video.  It is billed as a ‘colossal battle between men and the gods as this epic tale takes you on a non-stop, jaw-dropping adventure’.  There’s no doubt there’s plenty of spectacular CGI effects and heart pounding action, directed by Louis Leterrier (“The Incredible Hulk”, “Transporter 2”). It’s a question of immense star-spotting, too, with a cast headed up by Sam Worthington of “Avatar” and “Terminator Salvation” fame – he’s also tipped to be the next James Bond when the financial dire straits surrounding that franchise are sorted. However, it was a production plagued with problems which this release does not address.

Liam Neeson (“The A Team” movie, “Schindler’s List”), Ralph Fiennes (the Harry Potter franchise, “The Hurt Locker”) and the pneumatic Gemma Arterton (“St Trinian’s”, “Quantum of Solace”) are amongst the headliners to also look out for.  

“Paranoiac” hails from the famous Hammer Studios, home of Dracula and Frankenstein. Do not let this movie’s relative obscurity put you off, however, not least because this is the first time it has been available on home video. Oliver Reed (“Gladiator”, “Tommy”) heads up the impressive cast as Simon Ashby, an obnoxious, alcoholic brat who is about to inherit over £500,000.

The Ashby mansion is also home to Eleanor (Janette Scott), Simon’s delicate and mentally unstable younger sister, their steely aunt Harriet (Sheila Burrell), Françoise the saucy French maid (Liliane Brousse) and Williams the butler (John Stuart). Between them there is enough back-stabbing, distrust, lust and intrigue to fill a dozen novels. The film opens with the Ashby clan gathered at the annual commemorative service to mark the death of Anthony, elder brother of Simon and Eleanor.
