PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- With not too many days remaining in the old year, the current week offers a handful of attractive video offerings perfect for last-minute holiday gifts.

There are 12 uncensored episodes in the popular TV series "Jersey Shore."

From the silver screen, there is the 2011 remake of Straw Dogs, starring James Marsden, Kate Bosworth, and Alexander Skarsgård.

From 1981, you can find the conspiracy thriller Blow Out, starring John Travolta.  And 1976 gave us Robert DeNiro as the unhinged New York cabbie in Taxi Driver.

How about "Star Wars: The Complete Saga," originally released between 1977 and 2005?

Tony Curtis and Burt Lancaster star in Sweet Smell of Success, from 1957.

And, a masterpiece collection featuring what many say is Hollywood's most famous on-screen couple ever.  "Tracy and Hepburn: The Definitive Collection," is a ten-disk boxed set with their movies from 1942 to 1967.
