Roger Corman Horror Collection Vol. 2 (Dvd) and 12 similar items

Brand new factory sealed 2-dvd set is Out Of Print (OOP) and no longer being manufactured. All have been digitally re-mastered with the old mono sound enhanced. LITTLE SHOP of HORRORS: (1960,B W) It all begins with a 'Dragnet' parody: "My name is Sgt. Joe Fink. I work on a 24-hour shift down at homicide ..." Cult classic comedy stars Jonathan Haze as Seymour Krelboing, a florist's delivery boy who gains respect, minor fame, and Audrey, an equally dimwitted girlfriend, by nurturing Audrey, Jr., a rare plant that needs human blood. The film is crowded with great gags and characters. Mel Welles is Gravis Mushnick, skid row flower-shop owner. (LOTS PLANTS--CHEAP, says the sign on the door.) 'Bucket of Blood' star Dick Miller is Fouch, a customer who eats flowers. Jack Nicholson has a great bit as a masochistic dentist's patient named Wilbur Force. A wonder with the ultimate hypochondriac mother, a junkyard chase, and the world's most famous talking plant. Remade as a musical, this was not. TERROR: (1963,color) As Lieutenant Andre' Duvalier, Jack Nicholson is totally unconvincing. Lost on the Baltic coast, he follows a beautiful woman (ghost?) Sandra Knight to the castle of Baron von Leppe (Boris Karloff). Nicholson and Knight were married at the time. With Corman regulars Dick Miller as the baron's servant Stephan, and Jonathan Haze as the halfwit Gustan, who lives with a witch. DEMENTIA 13: (1963,B W) Roger Corman produced and had Francis Ford Coppola ('Godfather' franchise) direct. From the opening scene of a woman dumping her heart-attack-victim husband into a lake, you know this is no ordinairy quickie shocker. His body slowly sinks to the bottom of the lake alongside his transistor radio--still blaring bubbly rock'n'roll. Luana Anders devises a bizarre scheme to gain control of her late husband's family's money. Patrick Magee is the mysterious family doctor, and William Campbell is Ander's brother-in-law. With a great trick ending, some truly shocking gory axe murders, and lots of inventive photography. SHE GODS of SHARK REEF: (1956,color) Two brothers find an island inhabited entirely by pearl-diving women. The bad brother (Don Durant) tries to steal pearls and ends up as shark food. The good brother (Bill Cord) falls for a local maiden (Lisa Montiel) and saves her from a tribal sacrifice. This color adventure movie was filmed on the island of Kauai and features some nice print bathing suits. SWAMP WOMEN: (1956,color) Policewoman Carole Matthews goes undercover, poses as a gun moll to get in with prisoners Beverly Garland, Marie Windsor, and Jill Jarmyn--"the Nardo Gang"--who have a fortune in stolen diamonds tucked away in the Louisiana bayou country. There's a rigged breakout and the four end up in the swamp, where they meet geologist/oil explorer Mike "Touch" Connors and his fiancee'. Connors has a strong effect on the lonely women, who fight tooth and nail for his favor. The fiancee' and Garland are both killed before the police arrive to clear the way for Carole and our hero. With Jonathan Haze and alligators filmed in a real Louisiana swamp.
