i guess i can't really complain, given that the disc only cost me $4.99, but i thought it was especially pathetic that for their "commentary track with ted v. mikels", they just included the film again, with the audio dubbed over, instead of inserting it as a secondary audio track. also, i listened to a minute of the commentary and had to stop, because there was this persistent hum/buzz going the whole time.

I agree, I have the same disc. I paid less for it though.
There wasn't enough corpse grinding, and the whole investigative approach through out the movie when the audience already knows whats going on, totally makes this movie a grind.

"The Undertaker and his Pals" is so much better, and really fun to watch.

I've never even heard of an Alpha Video with a commentary track!
If you're an Andy Milligan fan there's no hope for you.

Nukie 2

Yeah usually the only special feature is the flip-through catalog.

well, i'd already seen "the girl with the golden boots", so i knew that mikelson was capable of; my complaints are exclusively with the quality, or lack thereof, of the disc itself. like i said, given the price, and what i knew of alpha video, the complaint is somewhat unreasonable. i just still can't believe that they included the feature twice, just replacing the audio with a poorly recorded commentary in the second instance.

just for s**ts and giggles, i did a youtube review of this movie/dvd.
