Katarina's Nightmare Theatre is a new line of horror from Scorpion Releasing.

This press release from DVD-DRIVE IN explains all.

Scorpion Releasing proudly presents Katarina's Nightmare Theater, a new line of horror DVDs hosted by actress, and former WWE and now TNA star, Katarina Leigh Waters, as she introduces a series of cult films, many of them for the first time on DVD! See the bewitching Katarina introduce such horror classics as THE HOUSE ON SORORITY ROW, FINAL EXAM, THE INCUBUS, some of them in new high definition film transfers with new extras! Also, for the first time on DVD such films as the 80's horror favorite HUMONGOUS, THE CARPENTER starring Wings Hauser (VICE SQUAD), THE HUMAN EXPERIMENTS starring Linda Haynes, AMERICAN NIGHTMARE with Michael Ironside, THE DEVIL WITHIN HER starring Joan Collins, the twin-terrors of THE MARK OF CAIN, and NOTHING BUT THE NIGHT starring genre greats Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing! Each DVD will have a play with or without Katarina's intros and closing segments and some will have audio commentaries with the filmmakers moderated by Katarina. All the DVD sleeves will feature a reversible cover. The first wave will be released in September, just in time for Halloween and new DVDs coming each month through March! “I am having really great fun hosting these movies, and coming up with skits for the introduction... plus I love that I get to meet these filmmakers and talk to them about their creative process on the audio commentaries... it's inspiring! I hope you enjoy watching the DVD's, as much as I enjoy working on them!” -Katarina Leigh Waters

I'll certainly be picking up some of those... :nod:

The films can be viewed without the introductions, and the sleeves when reversed lose the Katerina's nightmare theatre artwork.

roger me with a stiff wire brush, The Carpenter AND Nothing But The Night??? ahem. both musts in their own way IMO...;);)

:tongue1:

I would definately be interested in picking some of these up, as it sounds like they have put a lot of time and effort into them. :thumb:

I'll go with The House On Sorority Row, The Devil Within Her and Humongous. I do have the recent spec. ed. of the first title but if this new release features a revamped transfer and fresh extras then i'll be buying Mark Rosman's popular slasher once again.:)

(Big thanks to Matthew David for the pics)

I'll definitely be picking up House on Sorority Row; I really need a good quality edition of that movie in my collection.

The Incubus is a highly flawed but very interesting curio and well worth a watch. Been waiting for a decent quality version!
