The Dog Who Saved Halloween is a true silly Halloween story released on DVD from the hit Dog Who Saved… original movie series.

Mayim Bialik of “The Big Bang Theory” and Joey Lawrence of “Melissa & Joey” share the screen as they join the film’s pack of top talent as the voices of “ruff” and tough Bernese Mountain Dog Medusa and beloved Labrador Retriever Zeus.

The DVD is now available at all retail stores nationwide. “This latest installment of the ‘Dog’ film series, featuring recognizable talent and filled with engaging magic and mystery is sure to be a hit with families for years to come,” explained Erin Carter, Executive Director of Brand Marketing for Anchor Bay Entertainment.

My daughter finds her favorite four-legged friend Zeus (voiced by Joey Lawrence) and the Bannisters as fun and entertaining as ever in The Dog Who Saved Halloween, an all-new adventure jam-packed with family-friendly thrills and chills!

When George, Belinda and their kids Kara and Ben Bannister move into a new house – just in time for Halloween! – everything seems to be fine…until they notice eerie glowing lights and strange sounds coming from their neighbor’s house where creepy Mr. Cole (Lance Henriksen) lives with his protective pooch Medusa (voiced by Mayim Bialik).

A black cat suddenly goes missing and George Bannister (Gary Valentine) insists on investigating the matter himself – and ultimately enlists an odd yet familiar pair (Dean Cain, Joey Diaz) to help. But after the trio and Belinda Bannister (Elisa Donovan) get trapped inside the spooky house, it’s once again up to Zeus to save the day!

The movie is actually pretty entertaining, and it is cool to see Dean Cain as a foolishly evil person.

Syfy’s newest original scripted series Alphas is an action-packed thriller about five ordinary people brought together to form one extraordinary team. They are known as Alphas — people with the unique power to stretch the capabilities of the human mind giving them superhuman physical and mental abilities — and the impossible is what they do best.

Alphas premiered Monday, July 11 at 10:00PM ET/PT. We held a t-shirt giveaway celebrating the arrival of the new series. Susan Ladd is our lucky winner. She says, “Syfy is my favorite station and [I] hope to win.”  You won Susan, and I hope you wear the t-shirt while watching Alphas.

Alphas follows a clandestine group of average everyday citizens with amazing abilities operating within the U.S. Department of Defense. The team investigates cases that point to others with abilities like theirs, and as they work against the clock to solve this new brand of crime, they must prevent their own personality differences and disparate backgrounds from interfering with their missions.

In addition to David Strathairn, the ensemble cast stars Malik Yoba, Warren Christie, Azita Ghanizada, Ryan Cartwright and Laura Mennell.

Alphas consists of 12 episodes including the 90-minute pilot directed by Jack Bender (Emmy nominated director and executive producer of Lost).

Screenhead held a giveaway for a movie that the whole family can watch together.

Big Idea Entertainment is a faith-based studio and producer of children’s and family programming, characters and brands. Big Idea released an all-new DVD title, VeggieTales Live! Sing Yourself Silly. The DVD is available wherever DVDs are sold, particularly in Christian and general market stores.

We picked Jill Myrick as the winner. Jill says, “Thank you so much for the giveaway.”  You are welcome!  I hope you can watch the movie with your family.

The DVD captures all the fun of the live tour with energetic dancers, loads of bubbles, confetti, big bouncy characters and 18 of the most classic and popular VeggieTales silly songs performed live on a stage including “His Cheeseburger,” “Love My Lips!,” “The Hairbrush Song,” plus a few hits from the 80’s that both parents and kids will enjoy! There are also several fun and family-friendly bonus features included such as a peek behind the curtain on “Larry’s Backstage Pass.”

Bob, Larry and the whole crew are taking to the stage with the silliest Silly Song Countdown ever!  This high energy song and dance spectacular takes silliness to a whole new level!  But sometimes silliness just isn’t enough!  Archibald Asparagus prefers songs that have lessons, Mr. Lunt wants to sing about food, and Jimmy and Jerry are stuck in the 80’s!  But there’s only so much time…will the VeggieTales crew learn the importance of sharing so that the show can go and everyone will be able to sing themselves silly?

 

I have three lucky winners for the Neil Young Music Box giveaway!

Vicki Dahlstrom won and she says, “I love Neil Young. I didn’t get to see him when he came to town. The tickets were just too
expensive. So, maybe, if I win, I would get to listen to him at home.”

Yup Vicki. You get to listen to him at home!

Kathy Emerick is our next winner, and she says, “OH.. brings back a lot of memories of Neil Young and the group Crosby, Still and Nash and Young. Wow I would love this.”

Our final winner is Nora Scott-Platt, who sums it up nicely, “I think I have grown old with Neil Young.”

You and me both!

Despite remaining a hugely original singer, songwriter, performer and, let’s face it, human being, across a career spanning almost fifty years, Neil Young has never been immune to the influence of others. This will be of no surprise to anyone with even a hint of interest in the man and his music, but only those who have studied their subject in depth will be aware of the enormous range of artists and genres Neil has both been affected by and drawn inspiration from, much of which, if one knows where to look, is apparent in Young’s incredible catalogue.

This film traces the astonishing musical journey of Neil Young from the day he first heard Elvis to his most recent offerings, via numerous talented artists who assisted in his creation of, arguably, the finest body of work to emerge during the rock era.

Extra features include extended interviews, digital biographies, beyond DVD and more.

Neil Young with Crosby and Nash: Party In The USA
It’s always a treat when Neil Young stops by, and this time David Crosby and Graham Nash were on hand to help him with Miley Cyrus’ ‘Party In The USA.’

She defies enormous odds to rescue a heroin-addicted mother, confronts angry protesters to save a death row patient, and takes on the entire review board to keep the hospital open.

On the home front, Christina also fights to raise her rapidly maturing daughter, while deciding if Christina herself is ready for a closer relationship with the Chief of Surgery Dr. Wakefield (Michael Vartan, TV’s “Alias”).

If you didn’t know, Jada Pinkett Smith is the wife of Will Smith, a great couple with two adorable children.
