Companies that release DVDs must be anticipating there being little money left after all the holiday shopping because there's an abbreviated list of new DVDs that have just hit stores. Here are some ideas from the small group of new releases.

Companies that release DVDs must be anticipating there being little money left after all the holiday shopping because there's an abbreviated list of new DVDs that have just hit stores. Here are some ideas from the small group of new releases.

The Intruders, B: The eight-part suspense series comes from writer and executive producer Glen Morgan, one of the major forces behind The X-Files. That background is obvious in this creepy BBC America TV series based on Michael Marshall Smith's novel of the same name.

Set against the dark and dreary backdrop of the Pacific Northwest, the series looks at a secret society with one ambition: immortality. This is accomplished by taking over the bodies of the living.

The series features several plot lines, including a child on the run and a missing wife. The vanished spouse story draws in a former LAPD police officer whose life is sent into chaos when his wife disappears.

The blend of murder mystery with the supernatural makes this a weird and wild tale.

The Blu-ray and DVD versions include a behind-the-scenes look at the series and features interviews with series stars John Simm and Mira Sorvino, plus Morgan.
