Hal C. F. Astell has a new review of a neo-peplum release.
This is on Warfront by the Italian power/folk/Viking metal band Wind Rose. The review can be read at Apocalypse Later.
Recent Acquisitions
Arrived last week was my pre-order of the Kino Blu-ray Maria Montez & Jon Hall Collection.
This collection contains a toga and sandal film, Sudan, and a tiki film, White Savage (also known as South of Tahiti). Excited to check out all three, hopefully even do a write up on them here at my website. DVD Beaver did a review with screen caps at everything, so check that out.
