"Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery" (Available May 1)

One of Mike Myers' successful franchises began with this movie that no one really caught onto until it hit home video. And then everyone couldn't stop saying "Yeah, baby!" and putting their pinky to their mouth like Dr. Evil. Get ready for all those annoying habits to return. 

"The Dark Crystal" (Available May 1)

It's time for a new generation to fall in love (and have lots of sleepless nights) with this Jim Henson classic. While at the height of The Muppets craze, Henson and Frank Oz codirected this insane fantasy that pushed puppetry to a level never seen before. 

"Dumb and Dumber" (Available May 1)

Need something a little lighter, you can't go wrong with this one. Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels will forever be known for playing these two lovable clowns in this Farrelly brothers classic.
