It will be cheaper than the Vinegar Syndrome version.

Everything I've read about LA Wars has said its absolutely shit but I'm guessing that's why people love it.

Can’t wait for this one. Sounds like a winner in the bonus dept. I think this was the first movie that showed me a sad ending and not happy, tied in a bow. I really love this movie.

Not to mention exactly the kinds of gifts to buy a girl who's just had an abortion.

After ACTION USA and this, I'm getting a little hesitant about VS releases of films like these, unless they do more 10/$10 sales . . .

Who the hell is Vince Murdoco anyway? I remember back in the 90s shit from production companies like PM Entertainment would try to make these stunt men or doubles as action star leads, The vast majority were horrible actors.

Exactly! Although in fairness, PM Entertainment made up for their cardboard (or has-been) leading men with fast-paced action movie plots and spectacular vehicular stuntwork and pyrotechnics. Their output hasn't been well-represented on physical media since the days of VHS. Some titles made it to DVD, but I don't think many have been put on Blu-ray at all. And a lot of them are better than the 'action' movies that boutique labels like VS do choose to release (like Don Wilson or Billy Blanks pictures). The PM catalog would be ideal for a company like MVD.

Speaking of PM Entertainment, I believe their HQ was located in a building/highrise that overlooked a tow yard in Tujunga (or Sunland?). My car was towed 20+ years ago and that's where I had to go to get it and I noticed the giant PM logo marquee on this building.

Wonder if they got their stunt car stock from there. By chance did your car come back looking like it barrel-rolled through an exploding tanker truck?

I just bought Last American Virgin at a local Used Media Store tonight. The slipcover is pretty cool as it's a replica of the old MGM VHS box art. It's a blind buy for me so I'm looking forward to watching it.

The Last American Virgin…this really looked great and the interviews are not to be missed. This is a gem I’ve always loved. Now, looks great and still feel Gary’s pain. Great flick.
