Got my Kill Crazy/4K Final Exam a few days ago and decided to flip both on. Props, as Final Exam really does look great. Some dirt and specs here and there, but detail and grain structure was very good. It's always been a mid-lower tier slasher for me, as it's too bad the killer is just incredibly lame. Great looking disc, so

Now...Kill Crazy, which thankfully I have never seen... was awful. Sorry, I can't even say it was remotely cool in a bad way. I know it was super low budget, but the beyond terrible acting...I just can't give a pass to. Thought and hoped it would be entertaining, but so many holes in it, it took me right out almost immediately. Again, nice looking disc, but it just about ends there. The only saving grace was the well endowed brunette in the movie... yes this is a spolier!!!

[Show spoiler]

..

Looking forward to more 4K goodness from the Dark Forces, as the last 2 titles looked very nice. I'll never be a completionist and it's too bad, but I'll never buy Scream, because that movie defines awful....

. Happy viewings...

Hey everyone: I’ve searched the forum high and low for an answer and couldn’t find anything, so my apologies if this has been asked and answered a million times. But, what happened to the “Drive In Double Feature” of “Sex and the Office Girl” and “Lonely Wives”? I’ve been slowly collecting the Drive-In discs, but that one seems to have been announced and then promptly fell of the face of the earth. Any idea? TIA

Did it though? I mean, I cannot find a copy to save myself…eBay, Amazon, Dark Force themselves….all coming up zero. I can see that it might have been released and then immediately pulled, because it just seems to have vanished. Even those early Code Red releases are out there (albeit for a lot of money in the case of #3).

It did since I bought it directly from them on release, but ya it appears like it was very limited or something as I'm also having a hard time finding it. I found a sold ebay listing where a new copy sold for $53, so ya evidently it's rare, dang. Hope youf ind it, it's a pretty good one!

Cool, thanks for the help….it seriously must have been released and deleted on the same day! The search continues…..

I picked it up during the Black Friday sale. So, it was up for a little while at least.

Hate to rub it in but “Sex and the Office Girl” is a ton of fun. So freakin’ ‘70s!!

That's so strange that Sex and the Office Girl/Lonely Wives just quietly disappeared, I can't find it anywhere either. Looks like I purchased my copy from DF in Sept. 2021.
Here I was thinking it was one of the drive-in releases I would actually sell off.....it's surely one of my least favorites. For now though, I'll keep it around until it hits 3-digit fleabay money

Savage_blu, are you an ebay scalper?

Naw....I'm just excited that out of everything in my collection (other than VS slips) I may actually have something of resale value lol.

I've never sold anything on flebay, just made purchases.

Has anyone had a chance to check out Hundra yet?

It's not even on my radar yet, sadly. Too many other films taking precedent before this one.

Ya it didn't look like something I'd normally watch and turned out to be awesome, really loved it! There is a kickass documentary on there too, but ya I'd recommend it!

It’s good. One rung beneath OG Conan, one rung above Deodato’s The Barbarians. Among the best in its subgenre.

I just checked out Dark Force Entertainment's facebook to see what they were up to. They found the original 35mm camera negative of Oliver Stone's film "Seizure"(1974). They are considering doing a blu ray and/or 4k release. Nice find!

The Blu-ray is out of print, though, isn't it?

Still better to go with UHD since there have already been at least 4 blu releases Worldwide.

Perhaps this means they've got the footage that's missing from the Scorpion blu, though? The German blu added it, but just ripped/ composited from a video tape source. Would be sweet to get a fully HD uncut version, and in full 4k to boot.

Store is open with new goodies... Want The Black Gestapo 4K, but the blu just seems fine...Can't fight it though.....

Love the Ruined special...
