Studio: New Concorde
DVD Release: March 27th, 2001
So Saturday the 14th is a PG rated family film from New World Pictures. New World isn’t exactly known for their family film output and there’s a reason for that. This film is a mess.

Studio: Echo Bridge
DVD Release: June 5th, 2012
One of the ‘90s most underrated genre films gets unceremoniously dumped onto a barebones DVD release by Miramax/Echo Bridge. Directed by noted artsy-fartsy photographer Cindy Sherman, Office Killer doesn’t seem to get a whole lot of respect these days. Certainly the film is not without it’s problems but there’s still a lot to enjoy here.

You also get an appearance from early Cronenberg regular Robert Silverman.

Well, it’s time for the director of the Green Manors psychiatric hospital to step down. Evidently the good Doctor Murchison has had a nervous breakdown. The staff is pretty broken up about it, especially Dr. Constance Petersen. Her fears are relieved when she meets Murchison’s replacement, the handsome Dr. Edwards. The two of them quickly fall in love. Unfortunately for Dr. Petersen, Dr. Edwards is actually a paranoid amnesiac who may have killed the real Dr. Edwards and taken his identity.
