Image
  88 Films brings the super sleazy Japanese true crime anthology LOVE & CRIME (1969) to DVD+Blu-ray in a sharp and colorful transfer, with extras that dig into the facts in the cases depicted in the film, along with more info on the director and performers. A medical examiner finds himself performing an autopsy on his wife, the victim of a suicide, and finds evidence of a recent affair. In his grief, he reviews several cases of crimes of passion involving women, and many dark paths are walked. A fun, grim shocker!

Image
  Severin Films brings Russ Meyer's final theatrical film to DVD, Blu-ray, and 4K UHD looking bigger and better than ever, BENEATH THE VALLEY OF THE ULTRAVIXENS (1979), a bouncy, boisterous, living cartoon that spoofs both Meyer's own style and the adult films of the day. Frisky, filthy fun, starring Kitten Natividad, Ken Kerr, Stuart Lancaster, Ann Marie, and June Mack, with cameos by Candy Samples and Uschi Digard. Severin's disc carries over extras from previous editions (including a no-holes-barred Meyer commentary and Natividad interview), along with more goodies from the Bosomania archives.

Russ Meyer's SUPERVIXENS (1975) Severin Blu-ray Review

Image
  Severin Films at long last brings the Russ Meyer catalog to remastered Blu-ray with their release of his "Vixen Trilogy" (VIXEN, SUPERVIXENS, and BENEATH THE VALLEY OF THE ULTRAVIXENS) on DVD, Blu-ray and 4K UHD, with stunningly remastered main features, vintage Meyer audio commentaries, and extras both archival and new.

CHEERLEADERS' WILD WEEKEND (1979) MVD Rewind Collection Blu-ray Review

Image
  The MVD Rewind Collection brings a little-discussed Drive-In exploitation goodie back into print, one of the last of the theatrical entries in the Cheerleader genre of the time, 1979's CHEERLEADERS' WILD WEEKEND, starring Kristine DeBell, Marilyn Joi, Leon Isaac Kennedy, and Jason Williams. Perhaps misleadingly titled and featuring a cover that leads you to believe you're getting a film from a later period and lighter tone, this one is nonetheless filled with fun, fright, frolic, and copious nudity, everything you were looking for in a 70's R-rated Drive-In movie. Looking good and loaded with extras ported over from the previous Scorpion Releasing disc, this is a fun one to pair with REVENGE OF THE CHEERLEADERS (1976).

IMPULSE (1974) Grindhouse Release 2-Disc Blu-ray Release - Teaser

Image
I've only just gotten to the second, "Extras" disc of Grindhouse Releasing 's upcoming Blu-ray set of William Grefe's IMPULSE (1974), starring William Shatner as a Florida psychopath, and it's easily the release of the year so far. A fun thriller LOADED with supplements (including two bonus films) and easter eggs, this is a must-have companion to Arrow Video 's HE CAME FROM THE SWAMP set of Grefe films, and should be on any 60s-70s exploitation/Drive-In film fan's shelf. Review coming soon, but with hours and hours of content on this second disc...not TOO soon! Amazon has it up for pre-order here, with partial specs: https://amzn.to/3ONBdP8 (As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.)
