Thumb Wars is a parody of Star Wars in which all the characters are played by real human thumbs with equally real human eyes and mouths grafted onto them through the wonders of computerised image tweakery. Obvious, really. If you're a fan of the toy and puppets dramas on The Adam and Joe Show or, frankly, even if you're not, you'll love this. Quite apart from the inherent wonderful silliness of mastermind Steve Oedekerk's creations, the mickey-taking is of a high order as Loke Groundrunner, Hand Duet and Princess Bunhead, aided by Oobedoob Benubi, battle the forces of the evil Thumbpire (the stormtroopers wear thimbles) in order to destroy the "big dangerous weapon thing that can blow stuff up". Along the way, Luke and Oobedoop replay Bunhead's holographic message while lying on the floor so they can look up her dress, the two robots have sex and Hand Duet insists on being paid in girly giggles. The eventual destruction of the "big dangerous weapon thing" will have you in stitches, with Groundrunner attempting to use "the power of the Thumb" while the spirit of Oobedoob urges him to "use the instrument panel, Luke--that's what it's there for". --Roger Thomas

Too good for cinema, Amityville Dollhouse went direct to video just like the previous three in this series of eight. But unlike any of the other sequels to the classic 1979 Amityville Horror, this one at least has an original idea. It's a little surreal, but resurrecting the house as a pint-sized plaything has the spark of ingenuity about it. If only something else in the movie did. The Martin family move into a newly built house (nowhere near the original incidentally). Father Bill (Robin Thomas) has warning dreams and nosebleeds, but still happily gives his daughter the dollhouse he finds in their shed of evil. Naturally, spooky things start happening. We guess the toy must be dangerous (without ever learning why) because: it smokes, plays with the lights, alters photographs, blows leaves about, and oozes mustard. All the family get a taste of its badness: little Jimmy finds a tarantula in the piñata, wife Claire gets the hots for son-in-law Todd, whose own girlfriend manages to set her head on fire in the hearth. And so on. At the end of the day, these incredulity-stretching franchise instalments at least have the fun factor of working out who will survive. If not that, then you can root for who you want to see splatted and how. On the DVD: Amityville Dollhouse comes to DVD with a trailer, stereo sound, 4:3 picture. Come on, what else did you expect?--Paul Tonks
It would probably have been the greatest sporting achievement ever. When Tom Watson walked up to the final hole at Turnberry needing par for victory the world held its breath while it waited for a new hero. But the ball slipped past the hole when Watson wavered over his 10-foot victory putt and Stewart Cink took victory after a four hole play-off. Our hopes of immortality were denied and Cink became the Champion Golfer while Watson became a champion man. So many men led the Open on the final day making the 2009 tournament one of the most memorable ever. At various points in the afternoon three different Englishmen had led with Ross Fisher keeping his mind on his golf and his pregnant wife while Lee Westwood was reminded how brutal and unforgiving the Scottish links course could be and Chris Wood looking like a future winner. In the end Cink won his first ever Open but crushed the dreams of a 59 year old legend and may just have become the biggest villain in the history of the tournament! That's why we love sport and what makes this DVD compelling viewing. Relive all the tension and the magic at Turnberry in this Official Film of the 138th Open Championship.

Swallow your fear... EMR is the first UK film to be simultaneously released in cinemas on the internet and on DVD. Erskine and McCullough's debut feature is a deft thriller that cleverly weaves together a host of urban myths - from kidney-stealing and alien abduction to manipulative drug corporations; this is a paranoiac's wonderland. Reminiscent of Jacob's Ladder and with shades of Donnie Darko the plot winds its way Rubik's cube-like to a satisfyingly twisted climax...
