Lobster Man From Mars! This rocks!

Coming 10/21/03

I saw this movie a million years ago as a midnight movie at the Seattle International Film Fest, and it rocked hard core. I never thought it would see the light of day on video, let alone our favorite shiny discs. And yet, here it is - and it's only 8 bucks!

Totally worth picking up.

Of the entire "Lobster" genre, this one has to be one of the best.

But seriously, looks good. I'm a big fan of cheese, so I'm down with this.

Will Tony Curtis and his hair be making an appearance on this disc?

Wasn't this movie recommended way back when on "Siskel & Ebert"? I seem to vaguely remember this....

It's only 7.97 at Deep DIscount DVD. And yeah - it is full frame, but as I seem to recall it was 4x3 at the movie theater too. Now of course this is based off of 10+ year old memorys, so I may indeed be wrong, but I dont think it's pan and scanned.
