Sorry I can't find any cover art for them.

Strangely they don't have any info on video or audio. This makes me think they are probably 720p or 1080i with DVD quality audio.

I saw them on Tuesday. I was tempted at $15 each, but the running time on each is only 40-45 minutes.

What's the verdict? Are they any good? I saw them too, but didn't think they were a safe blind buy.

Saw them today..... was going to post, and found this thread via "S E A R C H" anyways, I didn't pick any up I should have looked at the cover to see the technical details, but I wasn't planning on getting them, so I didn't

You buy movies without checking the price? I could never do that.

I'm pretty sure the sign said $19.99 and I was fine with that. I was surprised to see they only rang up as $15.

The bug one is 87 minutes but the snake one is only 43.

Yeah, I saw those also and wondered what was up since I hadn't seen them listed anywhere. So yeah, what's the verdict? Are they any good?

That would explain it.

I watched the bug one. It's 1080i and 448kbps 5.1 audio.

It looks gorgeous. The movie itself was pretty good. Weird guy shows us a strange bug, then subjects himself to some sort of strange torture that's meant to.....I don't know...the guy is weird.

For example, the Mountain Weta allows itself to freeze in winter. To illustrate this, the guy sits in a freezer for half an hour telling us how cold it is. I don't really get it either. But I have to admit a morbid fascination with this guy letting all kinds of things sting him, then describe how painful it was.

i can't watch the snake one because it's a present.
