Synopsis

"... an affectionate homage to the 'creature features' of the '50s and '60s." – TV Guide

John Goodman is at his uproarious best as the William Castle-inspired movie promoter Lawrence Woolsey, who brings his unique brand of flashy showmanship to the unsuspecting residents of Key West, Florida.

It's 1962, and fifteen-year-old fan Gene Loomis (Simone Fenton) can't wait for the arrival of Woolsey, who is in town to promote his latest offering of atomic power gone berserk, Mant! But the absurd vision of Woolsey's tale takes on a sudden urgency as the Cuban Missile Crises places the real threat of atomic horror just 90 miles off the coast. With the help of Woolsey's leading lady, Ruth (Cathy Moriarty), the master showman gives Key West a premiere they'll never forget. Anything can happen in the movies, and everything does in this hilarious tribute to a more innocent (and outrageous) time in American cinema.

Been waiting for this announcement.

Keegsta · 07-22-2017, 03:55 AM

Yessssss! JOE DANTE MASTERPIECE!

Schism213 · 07-22-2017, 03:56 AM

Great timing. I just recently got the desire to start buying movies that center around people working at the movie theatre. I'll get this one, Bulletproof Monk, Cinema Paradiso, etc.

DMRI2006 · 07-22-2017, 03:59 AM

Already imported this years ago so pass. Shout's a day late and a dollar short with a lot of these announcements tonight.

Ray_Rogers · 07-22-2017, 04:07 AM

Wonder how different it'll be from Arrow's release. Hope it has very different bonus features.

Me too...I love this film, but having Arrow's version already I can't see myself double dipping. Unless it's a new scan, but I doubt it will be.

RodChester · 07-22-2017, 04:25 AM

Never got around to picking up Arrows release, so I'll wait and see which of the two is the one to get.

prkchopexpress · 07-22-2017, 04:36 AM

this movie is super underrated and needs some more love

lilboyblu · 07-22-2017, 06:20 AM

Just imported the Arrow disc last month! Will probably stick with that unless Shout's transfer is significantly better.

jshaide · 07-22-2017, 06:23 AM

Gonna keep the Arrow. But cool that it's coming to the US for those not region free.

Really figured Scream would put this one out themselves, actually.

Phobics · 07-22-2017, 06:50 AM

Saw this as a kid when it came out I may pick it up. I remember it being okay.

Alfredlynch · 07-22-2017, 09:10 AM

Well, that's good news.

MJD64 · 07-22-2017, 09:28 AM

Joe Dante. You magnificent, subversive and endlessly clever bastard. Love ya!

Don't forget people, this film contains an early appearance by Naomi Watts. Sold.

Caution_Zombies · 07-22-2017, 12:18 PM

I haven't seen this is years, but will be picking this up for sure.

NoirFan · 07-22-2017, 12:28 PM

Already have the Arrow, so a pass.

returnofthemack · 07-22-2017, 12:34 PM

I enjoy the movie but like others I already have the arrow. If shout released a quality region A release of the Burbs I would gladly double dip.
