LAPD Detective Walter Brown (Charles McGraw) is escorting the widow (Marie Windsor) of a mobster to Los Angeles to testify in front of a grand jury. Brown's job is to keep her alive for the duration of the trip -- not easy when the train is crawling with assassins. Brown's one advantage is that the...

Some classy, some sleazy; here's the DVD and Blu-ray announcements for 6 October. Why has Brittany Murphy been reduced to direct-to-DVD thrillers these days? No good. Good though: Jia Zhang-ke's 24 City bows on DVD in January from Cinema Guild. Oh, and sorry for the lousy pick of Blu-ray titles, but those were the only newly announced ones I could find. - Paraiso Travel , 2008, d. Simon Brand, Phase...
