Full Moon Features Drops 3 Classic Titles This July

This July, Full Moon Features is back with three classic, must-see titles.

On July 11th, join the “Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama” and hear from the “Kings of Cult,” Roger Corman and Charles Band! Then, on July 25th, Full Moon will drop “Hollywood Horror House,” one of a 20 part series coming to FullMoonDirect.com.

What’s more, Full Moon is offering a truly unique gift to all fans of the genre. Those who purchase any title from FullMoonDirect.com will get “Kings of Cult” 100% free!

Linnea Quigley, Andras Jones, Robin Rochelle, Hal Havins and Brinke Stevens star in the much anticipated “Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama,” out on Blu-Ray July 11th. Restored from the original 35mm camera negative and with some exclusive extra features, including the oldest Behind-The-Scenes feature Full Moon has ever presented, “Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama” is so funny it just might kill you.

In a bowling alley from hell…there’s only one way to score!

There are no freshmen in the college of love, and they’re about to graduate to madcap mayhem when a sorority prank goes crazy. Out to steal a trophy from a local bowling alley, the kids accidentally unleash the imp – a sadistic little spirit with a diabolical sense of humor. He creates demons and loves sexy women. He’s the original party animal, inviting you to come along and die laughing – just like everybody else.

The Sorority Babes won’t live through initiation, but don’t blame that cute little killer. He’s evil by nature and funny as hell. And even if you can take a joke, it kills you.

“Kings of Cult” presents a unique, intimate discussion with veteran genre filmmakers Roger Corman and Charles Band as they take you through their long and storied careers working on such films as “Eat My Dust,” “Puppetmaster,” “Sharktopus,” “Re-Animator,” and many more. This truly unique look at exploitation cinema from the perspective two of its top contributors is a must-see for anyone looking to go a little deeper into the movies they love.

Monsters, Maidens and Mad Puppets. Roger Corman, the King of cult cinema. Charlie Band, the Prince of the B-movie.

Two mavericks of independent genre film-making sit down for an intimate discussion about their amazing and diverse bodies of work, their fans, the hundreds of legendary performers and artists whose talents they’ve nurtured and the future of the industry they’ve both dedicated their lives to. From “Sharktopus,” to “Puppetmaster,” to “Re-Animator” to “Death Race 2000” to “Gingerdead Man” to “House of Usher” and beyond; this is the ultimate master-class in making strange cinema that matters! Starring Roger Corman & Charles Band…of course!

To wrap up this huge month, Full Moon will release “Hollywood Horror House,” one of a 20 part series coming to FullMoonDirect.com with an amazing intro by film historian David DelValle.

By 1970, the once golden age of Hollywood glamour and stardom was a tragic last hurrah represented by the decayed and deteriorated Hollywood Sign. In “Hollywood Horror House,” we’ll go below the sign, to a decaying hilltop mansion of a once great star, played by a once great star, Miriam Hopkins. The fabled Ms. Hopkins, toast of the town back in the thirties with box office hits like Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde and Becky Sharpe, was an A-list actress and Oscar nominee.

Another Oscar winner (Best Supporting Actress 1936) Gale Sondergaard plays Miss Hopkins’ loyal friend and housekeeper, who tries to save her friend from the handsome stranger, played by son of acting legend John Garfield. He may be the culprit littering the land around the Hollywood sign with hacked up body parts.

This hellish time capsule showcasing late 60s/early 70s Hollywood, remains an early example of the slasher films which would follow in just a few years. See Miriam Hopkins trapped in a madhouse of hacked up blood-splattered bodies, tripped out drug sequences, murder by electric knives and a Hollywood Christmas Parade with a drunk out of control movie star as its Grand Marshall.

“Hollywood Horror House” is the last death rattle of the Horror Hag craze that began with Better Davis feeding dead rats to Joan Crawford in “Whatever Happened To Baby Jane.” Just as Bette sang “I’ve written a letter to daddy” in that film, listen to Miriam sing the hell out of “Taking a chance on love.”

Witness that demented slice of cinema best described as a motel six version of PSYCHO…you have been warned!
