One new DVD turns "soy sauce" into mind-warping drug

A new DVD called John Dies at the End tells the strange story of a futuristic drug that does more than alter consciousness — it may alter your very species. If a crime drama is more your speed, however, there’s a new one of those out on DVD this week, too — check it out!
