| Madacy
United States
1? (NTSC)
| Werewolf vs. the Vampire Woman
| Full Frame, except for opening and closing credits. Part of Madacy's "Killer Creature Double Feature" series. Coupled with SCREAMING SKULL. Master has been cleaned up of speckles to a large degree, but nothing can get rid of the periodic white lines running down the print. The first few minutes are particularly burdened by this marring. Digitalization causes minor shifting and dullness in picture quality. Color is passable. Scoped trailer is included.

| Beverly Wilshire Filmworks
United States
1? (NTSC)

|
January
2003
| Brentwood
United States
| Horror Rises from the Tomb
| Full screen; okay transfer of uncut version (but Brentwood abridged it slightly). The original Charter video has better color and definition. In 4 pack set, HORROR RISES FROM THE GRAVE and 10 pack set, DEADTIME STORIES.

| La noche de Walpurgis
| What makes this of interest is the Spanish language presentation, absent as an option in Anchor Bay's WEREWOLF SHADOW release. Presented in widescreen, 1.85:1. No English subtitles, however.

| Sinema Diable
United States
1? (NTSC)
| Dracula's Great Love
| Terrible presentation sourced from a Sinister Cinema DVD-R or video. Mattes out the bottom portion of the picture, where a temporary Sinister logo is, for the first nine minutes, then continues full-frame, replicating whatever glitches were found in the source material.

| Exorcismo
| Probably booted from the old All Seasons Entertainment video or a DVD-R derivative, this full-frame presentation has good color and detail considering the source.

1? (NTSC)
| Horror Rises from the Tomb
| Two-disc set featuring three versions: the uncut "international" version, a cut TV version with clothed scenes replacing the nude ones available in the uncut version (both versions are full-frame and of passable quality), and an impressive widescreen version sourced from the German DVD and layered with an English audio track. The set comes in an attractive collector's keep box.

June

| Vintage Home Entertainment
United States
(NTSC)
| Fury of the Wolfman
| Included in SERIAL CHILLERS, along with The Brainiac and Doctor Blood's Coffin. Housed in cardboard, foldout keep box. Sidebar notes, "Notable Naschy," reveal several Naschy facts. Presentation of this cut version is probably sourced from an earlier DVD release and is of lesser quality.
