Howling Trilogy [Blu-ray] [US Import]

Description

Howling Trilogy - The Marsupials III, The Rebirth V, The Freaks VI - the fear is breeding fast on Blu-ray! The Marsupials - A strange race of human-like marsupials that have appeared suddenly in Australia are being studied by a sociologist played by Barry Otto who soon falls in love with Jerboa, a beautiful redhead (Imogen Annesley). The aptly named Jerboa has a secret; a cute, curious little pouch that following a night of passion gains the tiniest of new inhabitants. Is this a dangerous combination? While both ominously spooky and outrageously campy, it is sure to entertain! The Rebirth - When a group of strangers converge on an ominous Romanian castle, they begin to suspect one of them may be an ancestor to a legendary werewolf bloodline. As the evening progresses and bodies start turning up, their suspicions may be true! The Freaks - When a drifter named Ian comes to the rural town of Canton Bluff, he finds work fixing up the local church. But when the owner of a traveling carnival finds out Ian's terrible secret, he blackmails him into becoming part of his sideshow...but it turns out the carnival owner may have a secret of his own! Review: Sturdy packaging, average movies. - Comes in a sturdy embossed metal box, with two separate DVD's packed insided. DVD 1 has Howling III : The Marsupials DVD 2 has Howling V : The Rebirth and Howling VI : The Freaks on the same disc. Howling III is an interesting twist on the series with the action moving to Australia with the creatures being given some peculiarly Australian traits with even Dame Edna getting involved. The only extra is a trailer for Howling III. The second DVD has the two weaker movies, Howling V has a group of strangers coming together at a Hungarian castle, soon their numbers start to dwindle. Stars ex Miss World Mary Stavin. Howling VI is based in small town America with the arrival of a British traveler and a circus troupe belonging to R B Harker. Unfortunately the special effects let this one down big style and the werewolf looks unbelievably tatty. It also has a few familiar names involved including Carol Lynley and Antonio Fargas. As a horror fanatic this relatively inexpensive box-set is a useful way to help gather the complete Howling series together. Unfortunately so many of the films that bore that title were, at best, terrible and should preferably only be sought out by B movie fanatics. Review: just the box - I love a great box and this one is great. Nice metal and completely different from whats inside apart from that this is no trilogy ok there are 3 movies inside and with this the best of it has been said
