why am I thinking that many films were re-purposed as ZOMBIE FLESH EATERS sequels when released in certain countries?

 I saw that even TWINS (1988) was released as something like 'ZOMBIE 57' somewhere?

sounds crazy but I'm sure I haven't invented that... can't find anything about it from a quick search though!

ZOMBIE HOLOCAUST (1980) was released here on DVD as ZOMBIE CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST. 🤔

The WITHCRAFT series is 17 movies long, all of them (as far as I can tell) unnecessary, even the first one - and there are 2 or 3 more on the way:

...Does anyone watch these movies? Has anyone here ever seen one of them - let alone seventeen?! I've never watched one and only know them from (in my youth) seeing six or eight nearly identical looking VHS boxes on the shelves in the Horror section, and ignoring them. I've never read a positive review of any installment. The series must be some kind of tax scheme.......

I've seen the first three, maybe four. I could only remember vague bits from two of them.

Lost Boy:  The True Story of Captain Hook


A surprisingly dark book that even dips into horror territory a few times.  The story tell us the tale of Jamie, Peter Pan's very first Lost Boy and how he eventually came to resent and even hate Peter, and how Peter went to increasingly cruel means to make sure Jamie would stay with him and play with him forever. 

While it's strong character work that really makes you feel for Jamie, it never really gives you the origin of Captain Hook.  The book is 292 pages long.  Peter cuts off Jamie's hand on page 285.  On page 290 he leaves to go join the pirates.  There's nothing telling us how he became the leader of the pirates, or how this uneducated wild young boy became this more foppish Victorian gentleman who quotes Shakespeare. Nor does the crocodile eat his hand, despite how often the book brings up how crocodiles eat lost boys. 

It just feel like it get to the end and goes "Oh yeah, and then he becomes Captain Hook."
