BLU-RAY TUESDAY: 'Warm Bodies' Professes Zombie Love, 'Identity Thief' Continues to Steal on Blu-Ray

The first Tuesday of June is fully loaded with several new choices to check out this week. Four theatrical releases include Warm Bodies, A Good Day to Die Hard, Identity Thief and Escape From Planet Earth, while the latest seasons of Breaking Bad and Falling Skies also street for television audiences.

First up is Warm Bodies, a zombie apocalypse comedy that twists the Shakespeare's classic love story, Romeo & Juliet. "R" (a zombie iteration of Romeo) played by Nicholas Hoult falls in love with human Julie (Teresa Palmer). Together, the two are forced to hide their forbidden love from the humans and zombies, who are at war with one another.


Warm Bodies is released in a Blu-Ray, Digital Copy, UltraViolet combo pack from Summit Entertainment.
     
Also coming out on June 4th is the fifth film in the "Die Hard" franchise, A Good Day to Die Hard. Bruce Willis reprises his role as John McClane to help his son (Jai Courtney), caught in the middle of a Russian terrorist plot.

A Good Day to Die Hard is packaged in a Blu-Ray, DVD, Digital Copy, UltraViolet combo pack and features two cuts of the film from 20th Century Fox.

Identity Thief, starring Jason Bateman and Melissa McCarthy, also arrives on Blu-Ray in an Unrated Edition combo pack from Universal. The Seth Gordon comedy is released in a Blu-Ray, DVD, Digital Copy, UltraViolet combo pack, offering audiences plenty from 2013's first $100 million grosser about stolen identities.

For family audiences, Escape From Planet Earth is released in a Blu-Ray 3D, Blu-Ray, DVD, Digital Copy, UltraViolet combo pack from Starz/ Anchor Bay. In Escape From Planet Earth, alien Scorch Supernova (Brendan Fraser) from the planet Baab is sent to Earth after receiving an SOS.
