The Blob - $14.95
The Original 1958 Sci-Fi Classic.... THE BLOB! Nobody believes teenagers, especially when they tell you that a pulsating gooey glob of gunk has fallen to earth in a meteorite. And that this goob absorbs human beings and increases in size as it glides and slides thru the streets. But when THE BLOB eats enough townsfolk to grow as big as a building, the cops finally listen to Steve McQueen in his first starring role. Produced in Pennsylvania on an ultra-low budget by Jack. C. Harris and directed by unknown Irvin S. Yeaworth, Jr., THE BLOB went on to become one of the most memorable of the 1950's monster movie entries. Young actor McQueen had been working in Hollywood in small, supporting parts, when this chance at a starring role came his way. Immediately thereafter, he appeared in an episode of Robert Culp's TRACKDOWN series portraying a Western bounty hunter, Josh Randall. Faster than Josh could pull his "Mare's Leg," his character was spun off into the successful TV series, WANTED: DEAD OR ALIVE. Fortunately for BLOB producer Harris, McQueen had developed a name and considerable fan following by the time his monster movie hit the theaters. Also in the cast was Aneta Corseaut (later to become a regular on THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW) and veteran character actor, Olin Howlin, who in the 1940's, played the mysterious disembodied head that narrated the INNER SANCTUM movie series. It should be noted here that THE BLOB had its own theme song, and, was the only '50's monster to have one. This digitally remastered version faithfully reproduces the entire film, in full color. This regionless video is unrated, recorded in NTSC format on a DVD-R disc, and should be viewable in any standard DVD player.

Master of the World - $14.95
From the imaginative pen of visionary author Jules Verne comes the fantastic story of Robur The Conqueror (Vincent Price) who flies across the world in his enormous airship bent upon destroying the Dogs of War wherever they should appear. U.S. Secret Service Agent Strock (Charles Bronson) and allies (Henry Hull, Mary Webster and David Frankham) try to stop him because his targets include American military. Set in 1848, this was American International's second period movie designed for "hard top" theaters. A year earlier, producer/director Roger Corman had convinced AIP honchos Arkoff and Nicholson to take a chance on a higher budget production. For years they had churned out low-budget thrillers for the lucrative drive-in theater market. But Corman's HOUSE OF USHER proved that AIP could be successful in first run theaters as well. MASTER OF THE WORLD would be the fledgling company's second entry into this new arena. The name value of Edgar Allan Poe combined with actor Vincent Price's popularity led to box office success. AIP hoped to duplicate this triumph with another classic author, Jules Verne. Roger Corman was already busy with his Poe sequel, THE PIT AND THE PENDULUM, so AIP put action director William Witney at the healm of MASTER OF THE WORLD. Witney was a past master at bringing in films on time and within budget as he has began his career at Republic directing cliffhanger serials (SPY SMASHER, NYOKA & THE TIGER MEN, etc) and the hugely successful Roy Rogers series. Based upon Verne's two novels Robur The Conqueror and Master Of The World, skilled screenwriter Richard Matheson delivers a literate, lively and highly entertaining screenplay. The robust music score by Les Baxter proves to be one of his best. Widescreen, color, 102 minutes- plus extras. This digitally remastered version faithfully reproduces the entire film, in full color. This regionless video is unrated, recorded in NTSC format on a DVD-R disc, and should be viewable in any standard DVD player.

Fiend Without A Face - $14.95
In this science fiction thriller from 1957, Marshall Thompson plays Air Force Major Jeff Cummings, based at a strategic military installation on the US-Canadian border where fantastic events take place. An invisible force seems bent on destroying human life by ripping out brains. It is discovered that fiendish creatures were spawned at an illicit research laboratory. They multiply at an alarming rate and it seems their appetite for human nervous systems is insatiable. The faceless monsters become visible at the film's climax for a final confrontation with the ever-diminishing military forces. The visual effects are quite well done for a '50's low-budget thriller and fans of this genre will not be disappointed. This Amalgamated Production originally appeared on a double bill with THE HAUNTED STRANGLER, starring Boris Karloff. This digitally-remastered black & white film is available here as an all-regions DVD, playable on any standard DVD player. This film is not rated, and has a running time of 75 minutes.
