FYI, I think that the slimy corpse that is found at maybe 18:40 into the film (shown in your #12 screencap) is supposed to be the woman "Samantha" from prologue.

I also notice they didn't include the "Be warned: You will actually see a man turned inside-out" line on the VHS box, so I guess they wanted to make it sound less like a guarantee. haThe Bloody Pit of Horrorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04419921450872885649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5214930440884348127.post-5980882118787086022015-02-12T17:33:04.391-05:002015-02-12T17:33:04.391-05:00Well, I'd ask for a refund, too :) I mean, I g...Well, I'd ask for a refund, too :) I mean, I get hyperbolic marketing slogans, but these ads promised something quite literally and made a big point of it. It's not like I'm fascinated by gore or something, but such a promise is kind of eye-catching... ;)Piotr W.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5214930440884348127.post-42140166941869553312015-02-11T18:36:21.023-05:002015-02-11T18:36:21.023-05:00Nope Piotr.

The head is a bit *too* similar to the Universal Gillman. I would totally love to see this movie for those opening credits added. crowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04669900632326853467noreply@blogger.com
