DVD Savant is probably the most interesting reviewer of DVD's in the US. Here's his list of the best DVD's of 2008. Lots of westerns, and Criterion Collection's DVD of Dreyer's "Vampyr" at the top.
Carl Th. Dreyer is a favourite of mine - certainly the best Danish movie director of all time, and I should get round to buying that disc. His movies have never been properly released on DVD here in Denmark, and I'm greateful for the Criterion box-set I own that contains "Ordet", "Gertrud" and "Day of Wrath".
Edit: no wait, I did a little research - I'll buy the UK release of "Vampyr" instead, it's fairly similar to the US Criterion edition, but it also has a commentary track from Guillermo Del Toro.
