Page 26 THE VILLADOM TIMES I, II, III & IV • May 9, 2012 with the script making the college-age young men and women appear like airheads a lot of the time. In an attempt to create an iconic “monster,” director/writer Eric Englund has introduced a pig-headed villain who often inspires giggles rather than shudders. Bonuses on this DVD release are audio commentary by the creative team and a theatrical trailer. “The Big C: The Complete Second Season” (Sony Pictures Home Entertainment) continues the tale of reserved housewife Cathy Jamison (Laura Linney) who has been diagnosed with stage four melanoma and opts to fight back through humor, sarcasm, and plenty of spontaneous choices. Following the medical diagnosis that threw her safe world into chaos, Cathy finally shares the news with her family and decides to pursue experimental treatment. “The Big C” also stars Oliver Platt, John Benjamin Hickey, and Gabriel Basso. Linney is consistently superb as the conflicted Cathy, and Cathy’s humor -- often from the darkest reaches of her soul -- makes her a unique TV heroine. Guest stars in second-season episodes include Gabourey Sidibe (“Precious”), Alan Alda (TV’s M*A*S*H”), Cynthia Nixon (TV’s “Sex and the City”), and Hugh Dancy (“Martha Marcy May Marlene”). The three-disc DVD set contains deleted scenes and outtakes. DVD releases (continued from Restaurant page) Bonuses include several featurettes, memorial tributes to Swayze and Jerry Orbach, audio commentary by the film’s creative team, outtakes, music videos, original screen tests, and deleted, alternate, and extended scenes. “Madison County” (Image Entertainment), inspired by true events, is about a group of college kids who travel to a small mountain town to interview the author of a tell-all book on the accounts of several grim murders that occurred there. When the young people get to the town, the author is nowhere to be found and the townspeople act as if they haven’t seen him in years, stating that the killer never existed and the murders never happened. When the kids start investigating to get their own answers, they discover that the stories may be more real than the townspeople are saying. The film aspires to the chills provided by the original “Texas Chainsaw Massacre,” but falls terribly short. Despite plot similarities to that horror classic, “Madison County” is weak on suspense, contains poor dialogue,
