DVD Geeks - 07.19.10

Date 2010-07-19

We’ve got two Roger Corman classics in new, extensive DVD sets – the 1981 “Alien” knockoff “Galaxy of Terror” and the 1982 “Alien” knockoff “Forbidden World” (aka “Mutant”). Corman is a master of producing better-than-you-think low-budget schlock, and these DVDs give the movies a worthy treatment for home video with extensive extras.

We’ll also look at a very personal documentary “Prodigal Sons” which traces the journey of a transgender woman who makes her way back home to rural Montana to re-connect with her estranged family.

We’ve also got a little slice of horror for you with “2001 Maniacs: Field of Screams” – the sequel to the remake of Herschell Gordon Lewis’ 1964 splatter fest about a group of redneck cannibals.

All that plus our weekly honorable mentions and Geek Picks!
