a.k.a. "The Hollywood Hillside Strangler" - blu-ray coming soon from Grindhouse Releasing


I've heard about this one a few times and always hoped to see it. I'm glad it will be readily available sometime this year.

I don't know if it's coming to blu-ray. They may announce that later, but for now it seems like it's only a restored print making the rounds in theaters. It's in Austin today, and I'm going to go see it.

I'm in San Antonio and could make a trip to see something like that, but I'll prefer to wait for a video release. Since its' been restored, that seems likely to happen. Driving to Austin just for a movie is kind of a p.i.t.a.

I believe today was the only day it played. It seems to be getting one day per city.

A movie like this I probably wouldn't watch on video, but it was a rare chance to catch it on a big screen.

Happening this October. Love the cover image on this thing.

Not a film I'd buy, but it was interesting to see it in a theater. It's a pretty lousy film, to be honest. The most enjoyable parts were when I could see the old LA of my childhood, most of which is now gone.
