Two Cult Movies For The Price Of One

I bought this DVD double feature mainly to have a better print of Die Sister,Die! I assumed that both movies were hosted by Katarina Leigh Waters in a play Katarina's Nightmare Theater Host option. Only The Lurkers has the Katarina host option. Die,Sister Die! has no host option,so unfortunately you only get to hear Katarina give trivia on the first film(The Lurkers) since that's the only movie she hosts on this dvd. In fact I had heard Scorpion was ending this line of dvds,so that might explain why she only hosts the first movie. Aside from that you get two cult horror movies for the price of one and get a fair amount of extras(Original Trailers for Both films,trailers for other Scorpion Releasing titles, option of watching The Lurkers w/ the Katarina hosting bits or w/o them,and isolated musical scores for both movies). Then these are both restored to beautiful anamorphic widescreen transfers. Die,Sister Die! had previously been available as a public domain title in a full frame transfer only while The Lurkers had been out with the other Crown International titles,but in a less than stellar transfer. Now both movies are looking stellar in widescreen and are remastered from the original film elements! Also I should point out even though the features themselves are both listed as running 85 minutes a piece,The Lurkers is actually 94 minutes long. The running time on the back of the case and listed elsewhere as 85 minutes is a typo!
