ARROW VIDEO BOX SET RELEASE: The Nico Mastorakis Collection
I’ve been enjoying so many of the Arrow Video Nico Mastorakis releases, including Bloodtide, Nightmare at Noon, .com for Murder, Death Has Blue Eyes, The Wind, The Zero Boys, Hired to Kill and Bloodstone. Now, they’ve released a box set containing six of the director, writer and producer’s movies. Mastorakis started as a newspaper reporter, getting an exclusive interview with the exiled Princess Soraya […]
ARROW VIDEO BLU RAY RELEASE: The Nico Mastorakis Collection: The Naked Truth (1992)
If anything, Nico Mastorakis knows how to put together a cast of actors that I get excited about. In this, he has Shannon Tweed, Norman Fell, Bubba Smith, John Vernon, Zsa Zsa Gabor, M. Emmet Walsh, Lou Ferrigno, Erik Estrada, Ted Lange, Billy Barty, Yvonne De Carlo, Little Richard, David Birney, Dick Gautier, Camilla Sparv […]
ARROW VIDEO BLU RAY RELEASE: The Nico Mastorakis Collection: Ninja Academy (1988)
Yes, Nico Mastorakis, the same maniac who made Island of Death, Blind Date and The Zero Boys, made a Police Academy ripoff. It also checks off another box with an appearance by Phillip, who is pretty much James Bond. Also, because this is Mastorakis, there’s some full-frontal nudity. Also, Mastorakis never meant to actually direct the film, but after seeing […]

ARROW VIDEO BLU RAY RELEASE: The Nico Mastorakis Collection: Sky High (1985)
Man, Nico Mastorakis made some crazy movies. Like this one, in which a bunch of teens on a Greek vacation discover an entirely new kind of drugs: audio cassettes that deliver orgasms via hallucination filmed music videos. No, really. What is this, The Digital Underground’s Sex Packets: The Movie? It also has a soundtrack filled with […]

Andrea (Adrienne Barbeau) is a widow whose husband was an astronaut. She’s come to Greece to raise her son Tim (Jeremy Licht). One day, walking the beach after a storm, they come across a man (Keir Dullea) in the surf. He doesn’t even remember who he is, so Andrea calls him Glenn. She begins to […]
Doctor X (1932)
Based on the stage play The Terror by Howard W. Comstock and Allen C. Miller, Doctor X shouldn’t be disregarded by today’s horror fan just because it was made in 1932. It’s packed with murder, cannibalism, sex workers, strange relationships, frightening special effects and so much more. Because it was made in the two-color Technicolor process, […]
