How bizarre to think otherwise.

Since the movie DID bomb on its initial release and has become scarcely known DEFINITELY makes it non-mainstream! How bizarre for YOU to think otherwise. If it was as "mainstream" as you say, there would've already been countless releases of it on DVD. However, this is the second, after the first DVD release has been out of print for years now and has all but vanished. And look at the description, it says, "The Cult Favorite!". How can it be mainstream if it's considered a "cult" film? That's right, it can't. The term cult implies a level of obscurity to the film. So, NO it is NOT mainstream horror.

A couple of gorgeous covers there!

Maybe in your area it was, but over here barely anyone knows it exists. Mainstream movies are well known, "Dr. Giggles" is not. It bombed way back in '92 and was forgotten fast.

I agree. I don't like the cover for Deadly Friend at all. I still own Deadly Friend on VHS and the cover is much better. Warner definately should've stuck with that one. I'm gonna get it regardless though because it'll be nice to finally own it on DVD.

"Dr. Giggles" was never mainstream.

Saw The Hand as a kid, spooky, might not be know though! Dont want the others.

Nice covers...but why the two fingers on the Deadly Friend cover?  

I just want the Hand.

William Coffey is right, it was Universal..what happened there? but its interesting how Dr. Giggles is the only one (i think) that's kept the original title font and pretty much the original poster.  

I will definately be picking up Deadly Friend. It's one of my favorite horror films from the 80's and it's nice to see that it is finally getting a DVD release.

Not long before these are all in the 5.00 bin, I bet. But for horror buffs, it looks like a lot of really cool cult stuff here. I know my friend is a fan of Deadly Friend, and I myself have blatantly ripped off Doctor Giggles for The Abominable Doctor Torture.

Nice...been looking forward to The Hand getting a release and some of the others ain't bad either. Excellent news and the actual price folks will pay in store should make the average price per movie right around $7.
