It's The Ides of March For Your Wallet - HDD 4K Ultra HD Shopping Guide March 2022

What, did you think the studios and boutique labels would take the month off just because we had a stacked February with an intensely busy April and May release frame coming?  

Considering everything that's coming our way in the next few months, the one good thing we can say is that March is relatively light. There are some great catalog titles coming along with a few new releases with quite a few long-awaited favorites. We get a mix of new and old. Werewolves and Keanu Reeves. Italian Mobsters and Russian Mobsters. And while this month might be on the light side, doesn't mean it'll be cheap! With that - let's get into it:

And that just about does it. As always, release dates can change and if that happens we'll update our listings and this article as soon as we can. Scouring around the international releases, the only notable title we'll be covering is The Texas Chain Saw Massacre 4K SteelBook from Turbine Media Group - but that doesn't street until the end of the month and customs can be a little dodgy delaying delivery, so we'll get to it when we can as soon as we can. 

Once again - thank you for your pre-orders. They really do go a long way towards keeping our little corner of the interwebs alive and going.
