Grindhouse


Grizzly
18 feet of gut-crunching, man-eating terror! A giant Grizzly bear is on a carnivorous rampage across a scenic national park and no one is safe from its limb-ripping, face-eating terror. Arriving hot on the heels of Jaws’ blockbuster success, exploitation auteur William Girdler crafts a when-animals-attack classic and one of the grisliest PG rated films ever released. Christopher George, Andrew Prine, and Richard Jaeckel star.

The Manitou
Evil does not die… it waits… to be re-born. When a woman (Susan Strasberg) discovers the tumor in her neck may actually be a growing fetus, she turns to her tarot card hustler friend (Tony Curtis) for comfort. And it only gets stranger from there in one of the wildest, most bonkers horror brain scramblers that truly has to be seen to be believed. Director William Girdler helms the most ambitious feature of his brief career but, sadly, wouldn’t live to see its release, dying in a helicopter accident shortly before it hit theaters.
