The Alto Knights (Biography, Crime, Drama, History)

Inspired by the true story of the Mob boss who brought about the downfall of the American Mafia, “The Alto Knights” arrives on Blu-ray and DVD Tuesday, May 27, from Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment. The biographical crime drama is also now available to own on Digital.

Starring two-time Academy Award winner Robert De Niro (“Raging Bull,” “The Godfather Part II”) in a dual role and directed by Academy Award-winning filmmaker Barry Levinson (“Rain Man”), “The Alto Knights” follows two of New York’s most notorious organized crime bosses, Frank Costello (De Niro) and Vito Genovese (De Niro), as they vie for control of the city’s streets. Once the best of friends, petty jealousies and a series of betrayals place them on a deadly collision course that will reshape the Mafia — and America — forever.

The Digital release includes the exclusive featurette “One Legend, Two Mobsters.”

The Woman in the Yard (Drama, Horror, Thriller)

Blumhouse’s latest horror sensation, “The Woman in the Yard,” debuts on Blu-ray and DVD Tuesday, May 27, from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment. The supernatural tale is also now available to own on Digital.

“When the sun is bright and the wind is still, she comes to you like a sudden chill. Draped in black from head to toe, how she got there, you’ll never know.” With that cryptic warning, an otherworldly woman (Okwui Okpokwasili, “I am Legend”) sends a family into a seemingly inescapable nightmare. Already grieving the death of her husband, Ramona (Danielle Deadwyler, “Till”) faces a new fear when this mysterious figure appears outside her farmhouse. With the woman continually creeping closer, Ramona must protect her children from the chilling grasp of this haunting entity whose unknown intentions are anything but peaceful.

From director Jaume Collet-Serra (“Orphan”) and writer Sam Stefanak (“The Expanding Universe of Ashley Garcia”), “The Woman in the Yard” also stars Peyton Jackson (“Nobody’s Fool”), Estella Kahiha (“The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry”) and Russell Hornsby (“Fences”). Bonus features on the release include two behind-the-scenes featurettes. Viewers can travel through the darkest corners of the film in “Making ‘The Woman in the Yard’” to find out how the filmmakers worked with the cast to craft a story that is both haunting and human, and watch as the cast and filmmakers lift the veil on the film’s frightening figure to look at the themes, designs and styles that shaped her eerie specter into a powerful presence in “Beneath the Veil.”
