FULL MOON NEWS: Valentine's Day Sale starts Wednesday + Wizard Video VHS Collection announced!

Starting at NOON on Wednesday, February 13th, and ending at NOON on Monday, February 18th, you can get 50% off almost everything being sold at FullMoonDirect.com! There's not a full list of what will be half-price at the moment, but you can most likely expect all DVDs, Blu-rays, boxed sets, and probably posters, toys, t-shirts, and replicas.

I should also note that if you share the above image on Facebook, you'll be entered to win any boxed set of your choice, signed by Charles Band! If I win, (and I most likely won't, haha) I'm either grabbing the Puppet Master Blu-ray trilogy, or picking up one of the Full Moon Classics sets.

Also, I'm a little late on reporting this, but Charles Band announced a few days ago, that a bunch of mint condition Wizard Video boxes were discovered in one of Full Moon's warehouses. Let me reiterate that part: The BOXES for thirty-six Wizard Video VHS titles were discovered. Determined to turn lemons into lemonade, Charles, who still has the masters for each VHS title, is going to duplicate video tapes to put into each Wizard Video big box.

Each original VHS big box will be numbered and signed by Charles Band, and will contain a duplicated VHS copy of the film. Four titles are being released a month, for the next nine months, and will be going for about fifty bucks apiece. For more details, check out the Full Moon vidcast below:


I myself used to be a big VHS collector and had maybe half a dozen flicks in oversized boxes, but I've either sold them or given them away, and for that I am now kicking myself. The only big box/clamshells I have left (that I can think of) are for "Exterminator 2" (with MARIO VAN PEEBLES!) and "Exterminators from the Year 3000."

While some have complained about the price, especially considering the fact the boxes (though in great condition) lack the original VHS tape, this is still a really cool collectible, and once they are gone, they are gone for good. So keep an eye out for the first batch of Wizard Video VHS tapes, which go on sale TOMORROW, at www.wizardvideocollection.com!

The first four to get released for this month only are: RETURN OF THE ZOMBIES, TRAUMA, OASIS OF THE ZOMBIES, and DEMONIAC.

FULL MOON NEWS: OOGA BOOGA, Valentine's Day Sale, and $1.99 streaming titles at GrindhouseFlix!

Racists beware! You won’t even have enough time to scream, “Ooga Booga!”

With the success of "Django Unchained," Charles Band has taken some inspiration (if the tagline at the top of the poster is any indication) and decided that the time has come for a new killer puppet/doll movie. Said film, entitled OOGA BOOGA revolves around the wrongful death of Devin, an African-American medical student, whose soul is transferred into an Ooga Booga action figure. Once inside the stereotypical-looking African doll, he seeks vengeance against his killers (dirty cops), meth heads, and corrupt city officials.

The film features Stacy Keach (holy cow... he's alive?!) and Karen Black (who's already had experience battling a killer Zuni fetish doll), and may be released sometime in February.

In other Full Moon news, they have branched off and started up a streaming video arm called GRINDHOUSEFLIX. As of my writing this, their subscription service costs $4.99 a month for unlimited streaming of weird and obscure cinema. However, if you don't want to sign up, you can "rent" one film at a time for a mere $1.99 or purchase them for $7.99 apiece. They currently have twenty titles available for streaming (such as "Necropolis," "Savage Island," and "Slavegirls from Beyond Infinity") and will be adding six more in the very near future, including: RETURN OF THE ZOMBIES, THE LEGEND OF THE WOLF WOMAN, TRAUMA, DEMONIAC, FEAR, and HEADLESS EYES.

Plus, if you sign up now for monthly unlimited streaming, you will get a $25.00 gift card to FULL MOON DIRECT! And that gift card will most definitely come in handy because....

Details about the sale have yet to be announced but I'll post about them as soon as I get the info. Stay tuned Full Moon fans!
