It has gore by Tom Savini too.

The most famous person in it is Ashley Tisdale's sister though.

Blue Money is also going OOP so get this while you can if you have any interest in buying it.

Or flipping it! :v:

I just bought The Fear and Alien From LA because hey, they're ten bucks. I'm liking this sale because there's a few VinSyn titles I'm intrigued by but wouldn't take a chance at the usual sale price of $15.

Kinda want Alien From LA… it’s under appreciated for sure!

I’ve seen the chopped up MST3k version already, but I also bought it just because Albert Pyun has earned blind-buy status for me. His movies are always flawed and cheap and kinda bad, but they’ve also been consistently entertaining with lots of fun moments.

RIP btw

It never stops.

Ted Bundy is even more depraved than Freeway while still maintaining the same hideous comedic tone until the halfway mark when the sheer ugliness intentionally overpowers the entire film. It might be a real good counterpoint to the current complaint of glamorously fetishizing serial killers, but it still manages to wallow in how absolutely vile the content is. It's an autobuy for me, but it's not something I'd break out at parties.

Man, I wonder if VS is trying to lock down the OG cut of Tiptoes, too.

I’m kinda indifferent on his other movies, but a VS Tiptoes release would be an immediate buy for me.

If anyone out there is on the fence, I’d recommend Love After Death for fans of old SWV fare along the lines of Curious Dr Humpp, and absolutely nobody else. Glad I have it but not a good blind buy for most folks.

Amityville: A New Generation is better than it has any right to be as a DTV sequel to a half-dead franchise. It's got couple of things going for it: a really likeable cast -- they're mostly nobodies, but there's also David Naughton, Terry O'Quinn, and for some reason Richard Roundtree -- and a pretty cool setting in an urban artists' loft with some sweet demon paintings. If you didn't get the Cursed Collection box while it was available it's well worth ten bucks.

Lone Wolf McQuade. It’s still got some pretty goofy poo poo in it but it’s fun and a more modern (80s)take on a Spaghetti Western.

Ok, sounds neat, added to my LB watchlist.

Depending on how far you stretch the definition of Chuck Norris film, the best film that he played a significant character in was prob Way of the Dragon.

lol, I only have like 268 movies on blu ray, last I counted and I can't remember if that's the exact amount. That includes individual movies that are part of a larger boxed set. DVDs, I think maybe 80-ish?

Big Mean Jerk

This last VS sale has me over 1400 individual titles, not counting TV stuff.

And for TV alone, I have complete sets of MST3k, the entire Doctor Who runs of Pertwee, Tom Baker, Davison, and McCoy, Star Trek through Enterprise, Simpsons 1-20, plus a random ton of other stuff.

I use My Movies to track everything and it says I have 954 release but 1,072 movies total (that’s with boxsets broken down into individual movies) and that’s spread across DVD, Blu-Ray and UHD, but doesn’t count my adult movies since apple won’t let them add those to the app.

I just use plex, because i rip every single disc i buy and then stow it in those amazon vinyl bags and stash in my storage locker

No transcoding, straight 1:1 off the disk, on to a gigantic synology raid.

not a single pirated thing. i think i have the worlds only existing legal plex lol. Direct play to any apple tv in the house, just as good as the blu ray even the fancy sound protocols.

According to Blu-ray.com, which I use to catalogue my collection, 1012 blus, and 32 4Ks. I'm sure there's some overlap, since the 4Ks are mostly in sets that include the same title on blu-ray.
