Mass Appeal (1984)
• Theatrical Trailer
• Optional English Subtitles

Color 99 Minutes 1.85:1 Rated PG

Should a priest tell his congregation what they want to hear instead of the truth? Mass Appeal stars screen legend Jack Lemmon (Save the Tiger, The China Syndrome, Missing) as Father Tim Farley, a complacent priest in a wealthy suburban parish who drives a Mercedes and cracks jokes from the pulpit. When idealistic Mark Dolson (Željko Ivanek, The Sender, In Bruges), a radical seminarian, accuses him of “song and dance theology,” the result is a head-on clash that teaches each man the true meaning of faith. Outstanding performances from Lemmon, Ivanek and Charles Durning (True Confessions, The Rosary Murders) as an inflexible monsignor make Mass Appeal a humorous and compelling duel of conscience and compromise. Directed by TV and film veteran Glenn Jordan (Only When I Laugh, The Buddy System).

Be curious to know if this fixes the audio glitch at the beginning of the old Blu-ray. Also this says new audio commentary with Gimel Everett. Pretty sure she's been dead for a while. Maybe just new to the marketplace. Just genuinely curious about both things, not bitching (for once.)

The Naked Ape (1973)
• Brand New 2K Master
• Theatrical Trailer
• Optional English Subtitles
Color 85 Minutes 1.85:1 Rated PG
The naked ape is only human. From executive producer Hugh Hefner comes this provocative adaptation of Desmond Morris' pop-zoology bestseller. Through a series of animated and live-action vignettes starring Johnny Crawford (TV's The Rifleman, Village of the Giants) and Victoria Principal (TV's Dallas, Vigilante Force), The Naked Ape traces the evolution of sex and offers insight into why we behave the way we do. Part docudrama, part satire, part surreal countercultural experiment, The Naked Ape exposes the naked truth about love, courtship, jealousy and violence. Can you dig it? This Playboy-produced cult classic finally reveals itself in a glorious new HD transfer!

Yes! I've been curious about this since I saw the trailer. Looks absurd!

Immediate buy for me. Does anyone know why Gordon's THE BURNING has been AWOL on video?

Do you mean BURNED AT THE STAKE? Bill Olsen at Code Red just mentioned that he has it, but made no comment about releasing it.

Back in the day, I recall having the VHS of LET'S DO IT! I remember really enjoying it, but haven't seen it since the 1980's.

Yeah, thanks for the info. It has a few "AKAs." I always think of it as "the other BURNING" because I believe FANGORIA briefly covered it under that title. Has a lot of titles for something that never really played anywhere.

Several years ago I was babysitting my nephews when they were little and I threw on C.H.O.M.P.S.. After about 25 minutes, they both got up and stood in front of me with serious faces and said: "We hate C.H.O.M.P.S." Ah, it's one of my favourite memories of the little shits.
