Fantastic Movie Trailers 9: Grindhouse Insanity



Released by: Montreal Film Studio
Release date: October 26th, 2010

Duration: 118 minutes

Video: eks 1.78:1, colour
Audio: 2.0 Mono, English
Subtitles: none

Region: 0 (NTSC)

Note from the distributor:
Named after the old burlesque theaters located on 42nd Street in New York City, where 'bump n' GRIND' dancing and striptease were featured, Grindhouses were theaters that mainly showed exploitation films during the 1970's. 
Changing economics forced these theatres to either close or offer something that television could not, mainly sleaze, slasher horror, and dubbed martial arts films which usually contained large amounts of sex, violence and bizarre subject matter. 
Quality varied, but low budget production values and poor print quality were common. By the 1980s, home video and cable channels killed the Grindhouses. 
Presented with period intermissions and titles, this Grindhouse trailers DVD is a sure-fire party hit!

Review: Fantastic Movie Trailers 9: Grindhouse Insanity


The ninth collection from Montreal Film Studio is pretty good! It will, like the artwork claims, be "a sure-fire party hit!" Like it's predecessors, this also mixes trailers from all kinds of genres. There's no system to what trailers next on the disc, and that is part of the fun. On this collection, there's a lot of giallos, which is a nice touch.

If you're a trailer comp fan, there's good chance you've seen many of this material before, not much new stuff. If you're just getting into trailers this collection would be a good startingpoint.

As the others in the series, this collection also has a few old intermissions inbetween the trailers, however, most of them are collected into one session.

Qualitywise, the trailers are scratcy on the video, and there are a few hisses here and there on the audio, but that's the way it should be! The bad thing is that there is some compression artefacts.. if you have a big screen, it could get annoying.

A fun collection worth seeing!

Review: Fantastic Movie Trailers (Extended 2nd edition)


Fantastick Movie Trailers is a fun collection of trailers. It mixes a wide range of genres, from spaghetti westerns, blaxploitation, sci-fi, creature movies, and many more. Were many other compilations often stick to a few selected themes, this compilation has them all, all jumbled together. If you have seen many of these types of collections before, you'll probably see a few trailers you've already seen earlier. However, if you're new to trailer compilations, this disc will be a good starting point. It's not as good as for example the 42nd Street Forever-series, in my opinion, but it will keep you entertained for 108 minutes, with 50 trailers!

Between trailers there are some old intermissions and titles. Personally, I could do without those, never particularly liked them as I feel they interupts the “flow”. They are few tough, mostly collected in an “Intermission time!” in the middle of the show.

Quality on audio is pretty good. Video is, as you might expect, a little scratchy, but that is how it should be! The artwork on the DVD is pretty bad though... Thankfully, MFS have improved their design skills on later volumes in the series.

All in all, you should give this a try if you're into movie trailers and want to relax a couple of hours.

Website:

Official: http://www.trailersfromhell.com
Shout! Factory: http://www.shoutfactory.com/

About the company:
Any movie can be great at 2 1/2 minutes!
Trailers -- you know -- those fast-paced 2-to-4 minute theatrical promo shorts that have preceded the Feature Attraction since the dawn of sound? An exciting montage of all The Best Parts of a movie the exhibitors want you to NEED to see! Full of swirling letters screaming hyperbolic promises of THRILLS! ACTION! MYSTERY! ROMANCE! Packing all the highlights of a whole picture into its own mini-movie in just a few minutes! 
TRAILERS FROM HELL is the brainchild of film director Joe Dante, new media entrepreneur Jonas Hudson, graphic artist Charlie Largent and producer Elizabeth Stanley. The series was born out of their mutual love of classic films of all types, but particularly horror and exploitation films.
Disks released:

  1. Trailers From Hell! Volume One [released by TFH]
  2. Trailers From Hell! Volume Two [released by Shout! Factory]
Note:
The first volume was released by TFH themselves, but the second is coming from Shout! Factory. I find it most practical to list all disks under the same banner here, and not separate them.
