Finally picked up Bodyguard Kiba 2: Apocalypse of Carnage. Here's hoping I didn't make a mistake.

I ordered The Shawshank Redemption and Sinbad: Son of a Preacher Man recently.  I went to Big Lots and bought the Essential Ernest Collection .

I'm think I might go back and pick up some of their Mill Creek collections.

I'm think I might go back and pick up some of their Mill Creek collections.

This board could probably support a whole seperate page for those of us who collect these things. 

There's a couple of new horror-themed 50 packs out: "Night Screams" and the intriguing "Decrepit Crypt of Nightmares" Pendulum Pictures one.

Went to the new best buy in the area to pick up Hot Fuzz...which they didn't have.  That's another story for another post.  Anyway, I looked around and found this set for about 14.00!  I originally picked it up only because it has The Being which is a film I haven't watched in years.  I still have an old ThornEMI VHS release around here somewhere.

Didn't realize till I got in the car that The Dark and Creatures From The Abyss are included.  I've always wanted to check out The Dark and Creatures looks fantastically silly if Andrew's review is any indication of it's quality.

I'm quite happy with the Martial Arts 50 Movie Pack, and look forward to picking up others sometime soon. As long as you don't expect world-class quality, they're well worth the price.

On the way home from work Tuesday I picked up The 300, so far I've watched 3 times, even my wife likes it. It's not very historically accurate, but the fact that the story is being told by one Spartan warrior to the Spartan Army just before the battle of Platea explains why there are embellishments. When I'm done here I'll probably watch it again.

I picked these up today for 21 dollars. Apparently the Flesh Feast DVD isnt availible anymore on amazon.

Enjoying the dickens out of my Fleischer Popeye collection. The very early ones are great, but the series really kick into high gear once the voice combination of Jack Mercer (Popeye), Mae Questel (OLive Oyl), and Gus Wickie (Bluto) solidifies around the twentieth cartoon. After years of scratched, dupped prints the remastered versions of the two-reel Technicolor films like Popeye Meets Sinbad the Sailor are a revelation. They actually look better than anything Disney (or anybody else) was producing at the time.

FUN FACT: When Mercer was serving in WWII the voice of Popeye was provided by... Mae Questel!

The Tick vs. Season Two.

I'm peeved yet again that Buenva Vista left off another episode off of the Season 2 set. Episode 15 "Alone Together" is nowhere to be found but in their defense they do list on the package that that episode isn't included.

They left off the Mole Men episode off of Season 1 for "legal issues" which wasn't that huge of a loss as it's probably the weakest episode of the 3 season run of the show.

But the Alone Together episode is funny as hell. Kind of a Fantastic Four spoof. I guess I shouldn't complain too much as at least they're releasing them on DVD in some form.  I wish that they would spend more restoration money though so that the colors didn't look so washed out at times.
