88 FILMS ARE CLASS!

For the money charged the products are superb.

I have just received a shipping confirmation for The Oily Maniac, so I'll hopefully be watching that tomorrow evening.

The overview makes it sound like an absolute riot so I look forward to watching it whenever the package arrives. As it was sent first class yesterday, that should be today.

Mine arrived today as well and the packaging is superb. I watched the film this evening and found it very strange, but nevertheless enjoyable, experience.

The interview with Calum Waddell is really informative and something which makes me want to watch Killer Snakes (a title I hope 88 Films release almost as a companion piece) and rewatch The Oily Maniac again very soon. Despite the slightly exploitative title, the interview brilliantly contextualises the opening scroll and the film itself, so I don't think I can offer an informed opinion until I have watched it a second time.

There's a scene in Oily Maniac that Wes Craven seems to have directly copied in Swamp Thing.

I suspect killer snakes wouldn't make it past the BBFC. The 'superior' Calamity of snakes has even less chance.

88 films have released great films the last couple of years. Prices are cheap too, they are the best UK label.
