New on Blu-ray & DVD: March 8

Director John Boorman's gritty 1981 take on the King Arthur legend delivers the goods with plenty of clanging swords, sex and sorcery – now on crisp Blu-ray! Nigel Terry is the boy who would become king after removing the sword Excalibur from the stone, only to see his beloved Camelot and Knights of the Round Table crumble when his best friend Lancelot (Nicholas Clay) falls for his Lady Guenevere (Cherie Lunghi). Look for performances by a young Patrick Stewart, Gabriel Byrne, Helen Mirren and Liam Neeson.


Special features include full-length audio commentary by director John Boorman and the theatrical trailer.

The zombie genre gets new life with this well-written, heart-stopping, post-apocalyptic AMC series from Frank Darabont ('The Shawshank Redemption,' 'The Mist'), based on the popular Image Comics series. Andrew Lincoln plays Rick Grimes, a Georgia sheriff who awakens from a coma to discover that the world he knows is completely gone. Struggling to put the pieces together and track down his family, he bands together with a group of cooperative survivors -- and a few hostile ones -- to fend off hordes of flesh-eating zombies and find out just what went wrong. This 2-disc set contains all six episodes of the first season.


Special features include "The Making of The Walking Dead"; "Inside The Walking Dead: Episode 1-6"; "A Sneak Peek with Robert Kirkman"; "Behind the Scenes Zombie Make-Up Tips"; "Convention Panel with Producers"; extra footage; and the show trailer.

Johnny Knoxville, Steve-O, Wee Man, Chris Pontius, Bam Margera and the rest of the 'Jackass' crew are back for more outrageous stunts, practical jokes and hijinks involving wild animals, jet skis, a porto-potty bungee, giant slapping hands -- and human excrement -- and you'll laugh and cringe through every minute.


Special features on the Blu-ray Combo Pack include both the unrated and rated versions of the film; an MTV "making of" special; 11 deleted scenes; 29 outtakes; the film's trailer; a classic 3D anaglyph of the original theatrical version of the film complete with four pairs of glasses; a digital copy of the movie and more.

Russell Crowe and Elizabeth Banks star as John and Lara, a married couple whose lives are ripped apart in this pulse-pounding thriller from Oscar-winning writer/director Paul Haggis ('Crash'). When Lara is found guilty of a murder she claims she did not commit and is sent to prison, John struggles to keep their family together. But with Lara unable to cope behind bars, a desperate John recruits a man (Liam Neeson) to help him break her out.


Special features include deleted and extended scenes; funny cast moments; and the behind-the-scenes featurettes "True Escapes for Love," "The Men of The Next Three Days" and "Making of The Next Three Days."

It's a recipe for disaster when a cranky, no-nonsense news anchor (Harrison Ford) is paired with a perky morning show co-host (Diane Keaton). Can stressed-out TV producer Rachel McAdams get everyone to make nice? McAdams' character lands a job at a last-place morning news show, hoping to turn it into a hit with the addition of Harrison's veteran TV anchor. But when Harrison refuses to cover morning show staples like celebrity gossip, weather, fashion and words like "fluffy" -- let alone work amiably with his new co-host, a former beauty queen -- conflict and crack-ups ensue.


Special features include a deleted scene and commentary by director Roger Michell and writer Aline Brosh McKenna.
