Puppet Master Collection on DVD plus SO MUCH MORE!


Happy Full Moon Friday!

GUESS WHAT!? Charles Band (or most likely one of his wonderful minions) has linked my Evil Bong 3D review EVERYWHERE! He posted it on Facebook, sent it out with the email newsletter, put it up on the Full Moon Direct homepage AND the Evil Bong 3D website! We did it friends! By god, we're getting noticed around here. Now if we can just convince him to make that Wolf Cop movie, we're fucking set.

You know, it's just been a Full Moon/Charles Band kinda week. Everything from Evil Bong 3D to Incest Death Squad. It's been a hell of a time. I'll have to get out and do more of these journeys to see movies because it gives me a weeks worth of material to write about. But being it's been one amazing day after another I see no other way to end the week other than with Full Moon.

So, after stumbling around aimlessly on Amazon I discovered some movie sets I never knew existed. Get your wallets out, this is gonna be expensive...

Amazon Price: $26.49

HOLY SHIT! That is less than $3 a movie. Whether you're a fan of Puppet Master or are just looking to watch them all...this is the way to go. This set contains ALL 9 Puppet Master films. (excluding Puppet Master vs Demonic Toys) So that's Puppet Master 1-5, Curse, Retro, Legacy, and the All New Axis of Evil. I need this set.

Amazon Price: $9.99

You've heard me talk about them all week, now you can own them!

Amazon Price: $10.74

This is an older set but still a good one.

Amazon Price: $12.99

These are the kinda unofficial sequels to Robot Jox. Worth the watch. And I believe Barbara Crampton appears in Robot Wars.

Amazon Price: $9.99

Get caught up for Gingerdead Man 3 with this set. Not a bad price for both movies.

Amazon Price: $13.49

Fuck Twilight. These are real Vampire. Angus Scrimm vampires. It's a shame this doesn't have all 4. Still not bad though. You can always pick up 4 at Full Moon Direct.

Amazon Price: $13.49

It's sad that Demonic Toys 2 isn't on here but its still a cool set with Demonic Toys, Dollman, and Dollman vs Demonic Toys. I've seen this in Walmart for $5 so you may want to try there first.

Amazon Price: $9.99

Oh yeah, this set is worth it. There's actually 6 total Trancer movies. But I believe that the first 3 tie into each other best and give a really good effort. 4, 5, & 6 kinda do their own thing. Which is fine. And so is this set.

Amazon Price: $9.49

This is another one I've seen in Walmart for $5. It's worth it. Especially if you are unsure of Puppet Master but you want to give it a shot. The first 3 Puppet Master movies are excellent and well worth this price.

Well that's enough whorin' around for Full Moon for one week don't you think? We'll see you next week where I'll show you a trailer that is one of the most amazing Rip Off...of a Rip Offs that I have ever seen!

Have a great weekend everybody!

The 31 Baddest Days of Halloween: Charles Band #5

THE TOP FIVE


It's October and with it comes a huge list of epic greatness. In case you haven't read the intro to this thing, I'll be counting down 31 of the greatest Charles Band movies. Keep your internet dials tuned to Mr. Gable's Reality DAILY for new and exciting Charles Band goodness. I began this countdown with TEN Charles Band movies that I have yet to see, then I explored ELEVEN films that personally learned the art of Kick Ass! from Charles Band, and now I present to you, the loyal Reality fans, THE TOP TEN CHARLES BAND MOVIES OF ALL TIME! Let's do this thing...

The 31 Greatest Bad Movies Charles Band Has Ever Produced #5


The Trailer:



Destination: The future. It is post-nuclear apocalypse. Everyone including Jeffrey Combs is forced to wear those shitty dust masks so they don't die. Continents are still at war with one another. Attempting to learn from the mistakes of the past, they forget war and nuclear missles to settle disputes, instead they settle for one unanimously awesome solution: Giant Robot Fighting.

This fucking movie RULES! I'm serious...Robot Jox is exactly that...giant robots that fight each other to settle territorial disputes between nations. Specifically the land of Alaska is fought over between the Russians and the Americans. We just watched this movie last weekend and I gotta say...it was just as awesome as it was the first time I saw it. And the second time. And the third time when I was blitzed out of my mind on Rum. And there was probably a fourth time that same night...plus last weekend with my friends...but really...who's counting? (Answer: Me)

I'll warn you...it starts out strong...then it tries to develop a story. We don't want it to, but it happens. So there's a severe lack of robot fighting during that middle hour. It's still good old fashioned B movie gold! But there just isn't any robot fighting. But the beginning and end are chock full of giant robot ass whooping. Like a live action Mech-Warrior. So in the end its worth it.

Everybody wins with Robot Jox.

And in case you were wondering...this is yet ANOTHER Stuart Gordon film on this list. I love Stuart Gordon and I love that he is friends with Charles Band. Their projects together are simply amazing. But it also happens that this movie...at least from what I can recall from my rum soaked brain...put Band's Empire Pictures out of business. I'd assume because it was just so epically awesome...but more realistically because it cost too damn much. But nevertheless, it happened, it saw the light of day, and it was worth it. Not to mention that Band took the idea and ran with it...making 2 semi-sequels out of Full Moon...Crash & Burn and Robot Wars. Both pretty awesome in their own way. But Robot Jox is a Stuart Gordon movie...and he did Re-Animator...and there's a cameo from Jeffrey Combs in this movie...and he IS the Re-Animator...so that makes this movie far superior.

And it has this epic line! (Which someone found it necessary to repeat incessantly for 2 minutes straight. But I gotta say...I can't disagree with their train of thought here.)



God dammit. I might have to watch Robot Jox again. That's just too awesome to be watched ONLY 5 times.
