"Massage Parlor Murders (1972/Blu-ray & DVD Combo/Vinegar Syndrome)" Review

Review: Every once in a while you come across a film that attaches itself so much to an area, or a place in time that it almost overwhelms the film itself when it is viewed years later. That is not necessarily a bad thing, and as a matter of fact, it's quite entertaining when it's a film like the one we have here. So rare that it could have been considered an almost "lost" film despite it's numerous stars among the cast, "Massage Parlor Murders" has been rescued from obscurity by those great folks at Vinegar Syndrome.

Full Moon Releases Wizard Video Big Boxes!

As many of you may already know Full Moon Features is now releasing an old stock of Wizard Video big boxes! Each month they will be releasing 4 at what I see as a steep price of $50 each. Personally I think they should of been lowered to a much more reasonable price between $25 to $30. You have the choice of getting them signed or unsigned. I think this is the best time for Charles Band to release them considering that there has been a flood of interest in the VHS format. Others like Troma have done the same.

The First 4 to be released on February 12th 2013 are:

"TerrorVision/The Video Dead (1986,1987/Blu-ray&DVD Combo/Scream Factory)" Review

I have seen many double feature DVD's that many companies have released and most the time the two films don't really go together. In this case with this double feature I am very satisfied with the two they picked. Terror Vision and The Video Dead work so well as a back to back double feature because they both have a common theme in some ways. They both have monsters using television to come into our world and cause havoc. To me the treat of this set is that you get two films that have never been released on DVD or Blu-ray before in the US! Lets bust into this double feature and see what it has in store for us!
