With a major priced-to-collection Blu-ray promotion already in place for the New Year (a six-title “Retro VHS” packaging selection on Jan. 15 that includes the likes of Happy Birthday to Me, Silent Rage, The Last Action Hero and Who is Harry Crumb?), Mill Creek Entertainment has announced plans to expand the early January of 2019 release calendar with a pair of World War II-themed documentary collections on DVD.

Set for delivery on Jan. 8 — and priced to own at just $19.98 each — are the six-disc presentation of WWII: Behind the Front Lines of the War that Shook the World and the three-disc set of Secret Stories of Hitler.    Both collections include Digital Copy.

DVD & Blu-ray Release Report, Ralph TribbeyWWII: Behind the Front Lines of the War that Shook is a collection of three separate documentary series, which kicks of with the 21 episode collection of The Finest Hours of WWII (the rise of the Axis powers are explored; the great battles are detailed … and the devastating final conclusion with the arrival of the atomic age).   Next up is the five-part presentation Combat Aircraft, which examines the birth of aviation through the advancements by the end of World War II (the dawn of jet aircraft) … and the last collection in this 24-hour combined presentation is Waves of Freedom.

The other World War II-themed collection being released by Mill Creek Entertainment on Jan. 8 is Secret Stories of Hitler, which includes Academy Award-winning producer David Puttnam’s controversial 1974 documentary, Swastika, the six-part presentation of Hitler: Anecdotes, Myths and Lies (aka Hitler: The Untold Story) and the three-part release of U-Boats: Hitler’s Sharks.
