Blaxploitation rip-off of The Exorcist stars Carol Speed as a reverend's wife who becomes possessed by an evil demon that turns her into a sex-starved man-killer. This film is said to have had a short theatrical run due to some painfully obvious swipes from The Exorcist.

A space freighter ship responds to an SOS from a small, unexplored planet. After investigating the distress signal and returning to their ship, it becomes apparent that they have brought a visitor back with them. This version of Alien consists of a composite of all available footage for the movie combined to create a "virtual workprint" of what an early test screener may have looked like. With all the added footage, this print runs over 20 minutes longer than the director's cut. |

While short in time, this mini-documentary is long on entertainment value! Pre-teen Jill, who appears to be somewhat retarded, learns about periods ("when blood from inside a woman's body comes out from an opening between her legs") from her family. Sister Susie even gives young Jill a show-and-tell. Your jaw will drop as you watch this, perhaps the most horrific program on this entire website.

Groundbreaking PBS series focusing on a family from Southern California and their daily life. A predecessor to programs like "The Osbournes" and "Big Brother", An American Family is able to captivate and entertain without need for profanity or sexual situations, just watching the chemistry of the family is enough to hold the attention of the viewer. Very controversial when it aired, subjects like the homosexuality of son Lance and the divorce of Patricia and Bill were not daily fare on TV in the early 70's.

At a high-school party, four friends (Jim, Kevin, Finch, and Oz) find that losing their collective virginity isn't as easy as they had thought. But they still believe that they need to do so before college. To motivate themselves, they enter a pact to try to be the first to "score." And of course, the senior prom is their last best chance. As the fateful date draws near, the boys wonder who among them will get lucky. More importantly, do they really want to do it at all? There are a couple places where the tape quality drops to an unwatchable condition - for 13 seconds at 53:10, and for 30 seconds at 69:30. At 91:00, the text "Roll Credits Here" appears across the screen, and there are no credits at the end of the film. There are some credits at the beginning of the film, including the title "GREAT FALLS", which was the title of the film at the time this workprint was made. |

Based on the controversial novel by Bret Easton Ellis, American Psycho follows the exploits of 80's yuppie Patrick Bateman, who kills for thrills and manages to conceal his secret life behind his Wall Street hot-shot facade. This appears to be a workprint, although it has not been compared to the DVD release to determine if there is alternate footage in this version. The running time is about 3 minutes longer than what the IMDB indicates for this film. The three-way "encounter", which was cut from the U.S. theatrical version, does appear on this disc. This print does not have any background music. |

This rare version of Apocalypse Now is a pre-edit workprint. Those familiar with the film will find this piece of work fascinating. While it doesn't contain all of the footage from the final release of the film, it is full of scenes that were cut. Most interesting is the final hour or so of the tape, from the time that Captain Willard (Martin Sheen) arrives at the camp of Colonel Kurtz (Marlon Brando) - the scenes in this workprint are very bizarre and MUCH different than the final cut! Some of the footage shown in this version of the movie that never made it to the final cut include:
There is none of the Martin Sheen narration on these tapes, and the music is at times different than in the final version. At times, the sound is very difficult to understand. Harvey Keitel was originally cast to play Captain Willard but was replaced by Martin Sheen two weeks into the filming. It is rumored that Keitel's scenes appear in this workprint, but we sure couldn't find them. |

One of the most disturbing films you'll ever see - August Underground is the camcorder recorded footage of a pair of social misfits and their adventures. They rape, they torture, they humiliate, they abuse, and they kill people in brutal fashion. Very convincing special effects, as close to a snuff film as you'll ever see. We've been told that the "C" quality of this film is by design - it is supposed to look like a several generation dub that's been passed around the underground trading circuit. |

An utterly revolting film - lovers Crusty and Maggot capture all their exploits on film - rape, sexual mutilation, vomit, excrement, murder, etc. High quality effects make this one look like the real thing. Quality is intentionally made to look like home movie footage, so it varies from scene to scene. |
