Blue Bulleteer : CAPTURED BY THE CLOAK plus PLANET OF THE DAMNED (Giantesses)
Live-Action DVD movie
$ 24.95
** Not Yet Available **
b&w region-free, all-ages DVD

Writer's and Artist's Names: Starring Maria Paris, Mike Acord, Sam Rossi, Brett Taylor & Amy LoCicero; produced & directed by Bill Black, written by Paul Monsky & Bill Black
Intended Audience: Though unrated, this is an all-ages film that should appeal to fans of live-action superhero entertainment and aficionados of low-budget psychotronic cinema. The lead character, The Blue Bulleteer (one of the charter members of AC Comic's FEMFORCE ) is a beautiful, voluptuous young woman sporting as much spandex and skin as one might see in a day at the beach, and no more violence than one would see in prime time network TV- just plenty of fun and outrageous action in the spirit of AC's long-running FEMFORCE comic book.
Format: This is a region-free, all-ages live-action DVD movie presentation in full digital color. It is recorded in NTSC format, on a DVD-R disc. It should play on any standard DVD player, and has an approximate total running time of 120 minutes, including both features and extras.
Synopsis: All-new AC COMICS live-action DVD double feature!! FEMFORCE fury BLUE BULLETEER (Maria Paris) fights the mysterious cowled criminal mastermind The CLOAK (Mike Acord). Then, a space pilot crash lands on a forbidden world where he is terrorized by a beautiful giantess in "PLANET OF THE DAMNED".
Special Notes: Two of Smarty Pants Entertainment's (the filmmaking arm of AC Comics) brightest stars share the screen in Blue Bulleteer: Captured By The Cloak: Maria Paris - who portrays The Blue Bulleteer, and Mike Acord, who assays the role of the villainous Cloak. Maria stole the show in 2005's Nightveil:Witch War as the villainess Alizarin Crimson, and is soon to be seen in the lead role in the upcoming "THE SANGOR SYNDROME", while Mike also appears as Lon Madnight, the host/narrator of vintage horror classics in AC's Crypt of Horror movie series. The screenplay was penned by an AC fan who DIDN'T enjoy the Nightveil: Witch war, and responded to the challenge of "Alright, then let's see YOU write something BETTER!!" by producing this taught little crime drama. The second part of this double-feature stars new discovery Amy LoCicero in a oddwad sci-fi fantasy romp written by AC head honcho Bill Black that would have fit in perfectly as 1950's drive-in fare. Shipwrecked spacemen and sexy giant female alien? What could be better? Plus, this package sports lots of extras- a photo galleries of production stills, trailers and other special features.

   
Crypt of Horror Presents M Is For Monster
Live-Action DVD movie
$ 19.95
** Not Yet Available **
b&w region-free, all-ages DVD

Writer's and Artist's Names: Stars include Russell Johnson, Ed Nelson, Richard Garland, Pamela Duncan, George Nader and Claudia Barrett. Produced & directed by Roger Corman & Phil Tucker.
Intended Audience: This is an all-ages live-action DVD movie presentation for all fans of classic science-fiction films of the 1950's.
Format:This is a region-free, all-ages live-action DVD movie presentation of two films: ATTACK OF THE CRAB MONSTERS, and ROBOT MONSTER- originally released in 1957 and 1953, respectively; both are in black & white. They have been digitally remastered and recorded in NTSC format on a DVD-R disc It should play on any standard DVD player, and the full disc (including both features) has an approximate running time of 125 minutes.
Synopsis: A 1950's sci-fi double feature!! Atomic mutation and human brains create giant, rampaging crustaceans on a Pacific atoll in ATTACK OF THE CRAB MONSTERS; and the last tiny band of humans holds out on an alien-ravaged Earth thanks to the villainous Ro-Man's attraction to an Earth girl in ROBOT MONSTER.
Special Notes: You'll feel as though your at a 1950's drive-in movie watching these two gems!! Giant monsters were, well...big in the '50's sci-fi cinema, and ATTACK OF THE CRAB MONSTERS is as good an example as any from the time period. This Roger Corman classic features a cast a cut above the usual, with familiar faces including actors Ed Nelson and Russell (The Professor on TV's "Gilligan's Island" series) Johnson. ROBOT MONSTER manages to be equal parts silly and effective in it's post-apocalyptic chess match between the last living family of humans on the Earth and the conflicted & confused alien operative running the human eradication program, the being known as Ro-Man. Helping on the dramatic side of the scale is an excellent music score by Elmer Bernstein.

Special Notes: This collection consists of THREE rarely-seen classic science-fiction feature films from the 1950's; a time where a strong story could overcome a weak budget and still produce a chilling cinematic experience. Producer/star Ed Nelson made THE BRAIN EATERS a synonymous with low-budget sci-fi terror before carving out a long & storied acting career in television and feature films. In addition, TERROR FROM THE YEAR 5000 (starring Joyce Holden, Ward Costello & Salome Jens) has not been previously available in ANY video format, and THE BEAST WITH A MILLION EYES (featuring Paul Birch and Lorna Thayer ) has never previously been released on DVD .

Interesting supporting casts in both films, with Clayton(THE LONE RANGER )Moore in 'TIGERMEN and veteran voice actor (in an actual on-screen role) Greald Mohr in JUNGLE GIRL.

Crypt of Horror Presents Zombie DVD
Live-Action DVD movie
$ 19.95
** Not Yet Available **
color region-free,
mature audience DVD

Writer's and Artist's Names: Stars include Richard Johnson, Tisa Farrow (Mia Farrow's sister) and Ian McCulloch. Directed by Lucio Fulci.
Intended Audience: This film is intended for a more mature audience. It was rated "R" in it's theatrical release (for gore, not sex), and would be popular with fans of the George Romero "Dead" films, and devotees of graphic, flesh-eating zombie movies in general.
Format: This is a region-free, live-action DVD movie presentation in full color, originally released in 1980. It is recorded in NTSC format, on a DVD-R disc, and should play in any standard DVD player. It has a running time of 91 minutes.
Synopsis: Investigating the death of her father, a young woman (TISA FARROW) uncovers a strange disease that has turned Caribbean islanders into flesh-eating zombies!! Returning to New York, the girl and her companion learn that zombies have taken over Manhattan!! Contains nudity. A lost gore-fest SO disgusting LON MADNIGHT refused to host it!!
Special Notes: This long-sought Italian production ( by Ugo Tucci and Fabrizio De Angelias) was marketed in 1980 as an unauthorized sequel to George Romero's DAWN OF THE DEAD, and has achieved cult status among devotes of the zombie genre. With a strong emphasis on graphic gore, this film was also released under the alternate title ZOMBIE FLESH EATERS, advertised with tag lines like "We Are Going To Eat You!"; and "Nobody Under The Age Of 17 Is Allowed To Watch This Film". You've gotta LOVE cannibalistic undead movies to enjoy THIS one!!
 

   
Crypt of Horror Presents Motor Psycho DVD
Live-Action DVD movie
$ 19.95
** Not Yet Available **
b&w region-free,
mature audience DVD

Writer's and Artist's Names: Stars include Stephen Oliver, Alex Rocco and Haji. Produced and Directed by Russ Myer.
Intended Audience: This film is intended for a slightly more sophisticated audience, as it is violent by the standards of the 1960's, when it was shot. It would be comparable to a PG-V movie rated today. It should appeal to fans of Russ Meyer, and trashy, drive-in style motorcycle films in general.
Format: This is a region-free, live-action DVD movie presentation shot in black & white in 1965. It is recorded in NTSC format, on a DVD-R disc, and should play in any standard DVD player. It has a running time of 74 minutes.
Synopsis: Disturbed Viet Nam veteran Brahmin goes on a brutal rampage with two other bikers. When Cory Maddox finds his wife assaulted, he heads out for revenge on them along with a lusty Cajun gal (HAJI from FASTER PUSSYCAT) whose husband was killed by the trio. Cyclemaniacs assaulting and killing for thrills!!
Special Notes: More drive-in sleaze from the mid-1960's master, producer RUSS MYER. Mindless violence (at a 1960's level) followed by vigilante retribution that leads to an exciting desert chase scene climaxing in a box canyon known as The Cauldron. Lots of violence and busty babes in this "classic" Myer potboiler, originally shown in theatres on a double- bill with FASTER PUSSYCAT KILL KILL. Myer anticipated the 1966 "outlaw biker" movie fad which would start a year after this film's release with Roger Corman's THE WILD ANGELS. Unfortunately, THIS flick is so low-budget that they could only afford Hondas, not Harleys!!

Men of Mystery Presents : The Purple Monster Strikes DVD
Live-Action DVD movie serial
$ 24.95
** Not Yet Available **
b&w region-free, all-ages DVD

Writer's and Artist's Names: Stars include Roy Barcroft, James Craven, Dennis Moore and Linda Stirling. Directed by Spencer Bennet and Fred C. Bannon. Produced by Ronald Davidson.
Intended Audience: This is an all-ages DVD movie presentation for all fans of vintage action movies- serials and science-fiction films, in particular- as well as anyone interested in film history or classic genre pieces from the 1940's.
Format: This is a region-free, all-ages DVD movie(shot in black & white, and presented on two discs ) in NTSC format, recorded on a DVD-R disc. It should play on any standard DVD player. The program consists of the full 15-chapter serial, (originally released in 1945 ) which runs 209 minutes
Synopsis: Martian invader MOTA (Roy Barcroft) uses super technology to take over the body of scientist CYRUS LAYTON ( James Craven ), who has developed an interplanetary spaceship that would be of value to the Martians themselves. Only Layton's niece SHEILA (Linda Stirling ) and criminologist CRAIG FOSTER (Dennis Moore) stand in MOTA'S way.
Special Notes: This 1945 release is another classic among moviedom's adventure serials from the genre's best period. "Professional villain " Roy Barcroft (who made a career out of playing bad guys in countless Westerns and B-movies for years) turns in a great performance as the Martian emissary MOTA- who is also known as THE PURPLE MONSTER in the context of the story- hence the title. Lovely Linda Stirling, a veteran of multiple other serial roles as well, is solid as the female lead, and the "outer space invasion" theme foreshadows the cinematic postwar science fiction trend soon to come. This DVD is another "can't miss" for all fans of the vintage adventure serial.!

Writer's and Artist's Names: Stars Walter Reed, Lois Collier, James Craven & Gregory Gay; directed by Fred C. Brannon.
Intended Audience: This is an all-ages DVD movie presentation for all fans of vintage action movies- serials and science-fiction films in particular- as well as anyone interested in film history or classic genre' pieces from the 1950's
Format: This is a region-free, all ages DVD movie (shot in black & white and presented on two discs ) in NTSC format, recorded on a DVD-R disc.

Synopsis: A spaceship is shot down, the survivor of which is Mota, from the planet Mars, who enlists the aide of ex-Nazi industrialist Bryant to bring Earth under the control of a supreme dictator. But they are foiled by Kent Fowler (Walter Reed) and his pretty assistant, Helen Hall (Lois Collier)
Special Notes: As the decade of the 1950's dawned, science fiction became the new obsession of economy-minded B-movie producers out in Hollywood, and marrying this theme to the tried-and-true formula of the adventure serial brought about some interesting hybrids. This serial is one of them. Along with the fistfights, wrecks and other standard serial shenanigans, this cliffhanger comes complete with deadly extra terrestrials, uranium thefts, high-tech gadgets and aerial combat. A true science-fiction serial.

full color region-free, mature audiences DVD

Writer's and Artist's Names: Stars include - Delphine Seyrig, Andrea Rau, Danielle Quimet and John (Dark Shadows, Cagney & Lacey ) Karlen. Directed by Harry Kumel.
Intended Audience: This is the director's cut of a serious horror film with erotic overtones which includes scenes of both male and female nudity, and blood drinking. Sophisticated fans of vampire fantasy cinema will want this rare, digitally-remastered film on DVD to add to their collections. It is intended for mature audiences, and was in fact an "R" rated film when it was releases in 1971.
Format: This is a region-free, live-action DVD movie presentation shot in full color and is intended for a slightly more sophisticated audience, as it has some scenes of nudity and blood drinking. Considered shocking in it's initial 1971 release, for it's mixture of Gothic horror and eroticism. It is recorded in NTSC format, on a single DVD-R disc. It should play on any standard DVD payer, and has a running time of 100 minutes.
Synopsis: A troubled newlywed couple are seduced by the immortal Countess Elizabeth Bathory and her female companion, unleashing a frenzy of sudden violence and depraved desire that shocked worldwide film audiences with this film's original 1971 release.

Special Notes: One of the "forgotten" vampire films of the 1970's; this stylish and low-key horror masterpiece was beautifully filmed on fabulous European locations.. This digitally-remastered version is the uncensored, director's cut featuring female and male nudity...a blood-drinking foursome...three beautiful women and a young John (Cagney & Lacey) Karlen. Rated "R", and definitely only for mature viewers.

$ 24.95
** Not Yet Available **
b&w region-free, all-ages DVD

Writer's and Artist's Names: Stars include Richard Webb (TV's CAPTAIN MIDNIGHT); Aline Towne, Lane Bradford and Stanley Price. Directed by Fred C. Brannon.
Intended Audience: This is an all-ages DVD movie presentation for all fans of vintage action movies-serials and science-fiction films in particular- as well as anyone interested in film history or classic genre pieces from the 1950's.
Format: This is a region- free, all-ages DVD movie (shot in black & white and presented on two discs) in NTSC format, recorded on DVD-R discs. It should play on any standard DVD player. The program consists of the 12-chapter serial (originally released in 1950 ) which runs approximately 167 minutes.
Synopsis: Investigator Lane Carlson (RICHARD WEBB) must stop The Phantom Ruler (STANLEY PRICE), master criminal with a device that renders him invisible. Carlson resents that he must work with a woman investigator, Carol Richards (ALINE TOWNE). She provides the brains while Lane contributes brawn in this action cliffhanger's many fight scenes.
Special Notes: Yet another example of the transition in marketing that went on in the film industry as the post-war years led into the 1950's. The once-lucrative action/adventure serial niche was beginning to dry up, and the full-fledged science-fiction feature was not yet firmly established, and this serial is strongly rooted in both worlds. Star RICHARD WEBB was to make a major impact in the still-young television world with his portrayal of radio & comic-book icon CAPTAIN MIDNIGHT, and shines here as well as the insurance investigator whose revolver and fists are always at the ready to counter the scheming of a mad scientist.
