Prophecy is one of my favorite monster films. I have the US DVD release of it. The picture quality is excellent and it's widescreen, but there's no extras on the disc, not even a trailer!

I just bought The Pit/Hellgate after looking through cheap Anchor Bay DVDs on Amazon, I haven't seen either but this line from DVD Verdict sold me:

What do a demonic teddy bear and Horshak from Welcome Back, Kotter have in common? They are both stars of two of the most $%#@-ed up movies ever made.

I didn't need to read the rest of the review.

The Escapees
Two young women escape from a 'correction centre' and team up with a band of travellers / performance artists. As ever, great photography and bizarre sequences abound, resulting in an entertaining film from Jean Rollin.
If you're a fan of Rollin ( which I am ) and Night Of The Hunted ( ditto ) you should like this.
Pretty good pq and features a nice interview with Rollin, which is interspersed with clips from a number of his films. Recommended.

Paganinni Horror
Oh gawd. Crap female rock band finds 'haunted' music sheet which turns them into equally crap rock band. Paganinni's ghost appears at certain times and starts killing people. This is absolute pants. Don't bother.

Got the French version of Necronomicon. Great transfer, really good picture. Shame the French subtitles are burned in, but a really good package. Better film than I remembered it being too.
