'Case 39'

Completed a couple of years before it was released - which should tell you something - this supernatural tale casts Renee Zellweger as a social worker who may come to regret taking a deeply troubled youngster (Jodelle Ferland) into her home.

The phrase "no good deed goes unpunished" soon gets a fresh workout. Bradley Cooper, who struck box-office gold in "The Hangover" after making this, and Ian McShane co-star. DVD extras: four "making-of" documentaries; deleted scenes. ** (R: AS, V) (Also on Blu-ray)
