Search - Cult Fiction on DVD

Good Idea - but I am sceptical

(3 out of 5 stars)

""The CULT FICTION collection presents four cheeseball attempts at low-budget horror that purposely elicit more laughs than chills. In BAD MOVIE POLICE #1, scream queens Ariauna Albright and Lilith Stabs host a MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000-style presentation of GALAXY OF THE DINOSAURS (1992), which follows a group of space travelers trapped on a dinosaur-infested planet. In BAD MOVIE POLICE #2, Albright and Stabs train their sights on the equally awful CHICKBOXER (1992). EDDIE PRESLEY (1992) boasts cameos from Quentin Tarantino and Bruce Campbell in the story of a struggling Elvis impersonator who gets more than he bargained for when he stages a "comeback" show at a seedy Hollywood nightclub. And TOWNIES (2002) presents a blackly comic assortment of demented social misfits in smalltown Ohio from the director and star of KILLER NERD, Wayne A. Harold and AMERICAN SPLENDOR muse Toby Radloff."

Eddie Presley is available in a seperate Special Edition. I am curious what Bci/Eclipse (a producer of relatively low quality discs) pulls of with this 2-DVD set.
