How is that a trilogy? Parts 3, 5 and 6? What about 4?

WOW so now TMG is getting into Blu. I have a feeling these will be some of the WORST transfers in BR history. I hope they release A Haunting: The Complete Series (and Echo Bridge release the 2 specials)

Good news is maybe we can get all those Asylum movies they own on BR now

I'll probably be in for this if it's cheap.

I have the Howling III: Marsupials on DVD and it's pretty hilarious.

Maybe this will make M-G-M release Howling & Howling II on Blu. Echo Bridge owns Howling IV so maybe they will release a BR of it in the future.

Its amazing how one great movie can spawn 6 (7) crap fests.

Too bad we never got a sequel even remotely on par with the original.

The 7th one is unwatchable. It has literally an hour worth of line dancing footage in a cowboy bar. I think a werewolf finally shows up in the final minute!

THE HOWLING REBORN is shooting next month; apparently a reboot or unrelated movie.

Part III is the only film I've ever quit on in four years of the Horror Challenge. I think I'll stay away from the later "sequels".

In some commentary or interview, Joe Dante said that when he hired Christopher Lee for Gremlins 2, the first thing Lee did was apologize for doing The Howling II.

As far as Howling II goes, the closing credits are really the highlight.
