Enormous "Leave It to Beaver" Collection Comes to DVD

by KYW's Bob Nelson

This week's list of home video releases may not set the world ablaze but there are a few you may want to add to your library.

Among the most publicized is Hot Tub Time Machine, John Cusack's affectionate salute to the Golden Age of 1980s teen comedies. There's a two-disk Blu-ray edition which adds four featurettes to the package.

On the subject of packages we have "The Leave It To Beaver Collection" -- a 37-disk collection with 234 episodes that can set you back close to $200.

The Crazies is a remake of George Romero's 1973 horror film about a small town that erupts in inexplicable violence. There's also a Blu-ray version.

Everlasting Moments tells the story of a working class woman in the Sweden of 1911 who discovers the joy of photography.  Blu-ray also has a version.

Then, there's Percy Jackson and The Olympians: The Lightning Thief,  about an awkward high school student who discovers he has vast supernatural powers.  The Blu-ray version packs several previously deleted scenes.
