SWORDS, SANDALS, SPIDER CULTS, RAPEY ALIENS, FULCI ZOMBIES, AND A KNIFE-WIELDING MANIAC POPULATE DARK FORCE ENTERTAINMENT'S LATEST RELEASES!
In a surprising plot-twist, numerous Dark Force Entertainment titles are now being distributed through MVD! The first batch of these "Collector's Edition" titles includes ATOR: THE FIGHTING EAGLE, BREEDERS, and a Drive-In Double Feature of THE GATES OF HELL and PSYCHO FROM TEXAS! As far as I can tell, all three releases are pretty light on extras, but do come with collectible slipcovers! Let's take a closer look at these new Dark Force titles Vault Dwellers!
