Actually Bo Svenson stars in the other title on the disc--SNOWBEAST. He has no connection to Ivan Marx's 70s documentary.

<<Erik the Mirakle Ape #118 [-] posts: 497(07/01/09 06:55 PM) Absolutely amazing how many films Alpha releases, i just placed an order with them a month
ago and was suprised at how many new titles they've added in the last year or so. >>
& no signs of stopping, rescuing a lot of films from obscurity . |

It's better to have an Alpha release than no release, but I prefer any other option. The Alpha titles are usually poor transfers and they're often
missing footage.

I blame Kevin for not posting a clearer listing (and for not putting this is in the correct thread ... this should be for noting Big Lots acquisitions & 50% off sales at DVD Planet). >>It just listed Bo Svenson, whom I assumed was the narrator.<< Would you hire Bo Svenson to narrate a film ... ? |

No. But wait ... If I did, what kind of film? |

Federal Agent Vincent Terranova (Ken Wahl) is plagued by the question in this innovative take on 80's cop dramas. Created by veteran hit producer Steven J.

An impressive haul, Erik. I was in my local Big Lots yesterday and snapped up SABOTEUR for three bucks, but didn't see any of that other good stuff. And at the nearby Sprawl-Mart, I bought a three-disc/twelve-movie collection called "Gore House Classics" (I think that's what it's called) for five bucks. Included are some questionable, but possibly goofy fun items such as NIGHTMARE IN WAX, SATAN'S SLAVE, BLOOD OF DRACULA'S CASTLE, PRIME EVIL, and others.
