It's Monday again and boy do we have a bevy of post apocalyptic flicks hitting DVD tomorrow. First off is Will Smith's "I am Legend" (which I absolutely deplore), then the History channel documentary "Life after people". Next is Mark Young's post-apocalyptic we-got-no-gas Vinnie Jones flick "Tooth and Nail", then Richard Kelly's utterly confusing "Southland Tales". For all you scifi fans out there season 3 of "Battlestar Galactica" is dropping! Let's throw in Thai horror thriller "13: Game of Death" and one of my personal picks, "The Deaths of Ian Stone". Check em all out with trailers, synopsis, and amazon links after the break!
