Anchor Bay makes me happy.
Jun. 19th, 2003 10:22 amAnchor Bay has announced a whole buncha DVDs (this according to DVDfile.com). They include:
Xena: Season 2. My favorite season, featuring "Warrior, Princess, Tramp," the first Meg episode (with Lucy Lawless playing three different characters), "A Day in the Life," which was not only the first episode I ever watched, but featured the infamous Hot Tub Scene, the nifty "A Necessary Evil," with my two favorite villains (Callisto and Velasca), "For Him the Bell Tolls," Featuring Joxur The Mighty, and "The Quest," with Xena in Bruce Campbell's body. Not that Season Three is anything to complain about either, but Season Two was just damned near perfect.
The Hills Have Eyes: A two-disc set for one of the great low-budget '70s horror flicks. This is still my favorite Wes Craven work to date. Brutal, nasty, and completes the awkward city/country horror trilogy of that decade (along with Deliverance and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre). The disc is supposed to have commentary by Craven, during which I hope he intends to explain what the fuck he was smoking when he made the sequel.
and
Neon Maniacs, a truly terrible '80s horror movie (about monsters who melt in water living inside the Golden Gate Bridge), which, for some reason, I really like (okay, the reason is that I like pretty much any cheesy monster movie). It had a decent soundtrack, too.
The first two are ones I'll definitely own. The last, if I can find it dirt cheap used, might also make its way into my library.
