The Creature Double Feature is the gift that just makes a monstrous night so enjoyable. What make the big monster even more huge is a change to terrorize Oscar winning actors. Hard to believe that John Huston (Chinatown), Shelley Winters (Lolita) and Henry Fonda (The Grapes of Wrath) signed up to be chased by an enormous octopus. Tentacles was the Sharknado of its day. The movie tries to be Jaws with 8 arms. What Reptilicus lacks in star power, it makes up for in a weird monster action. Now both are brought together when Scream Factory unleashes the Blu-ray double feature of Tentacles & Reptilicus on June 16. Here’s the press release from Scream Factory:
Tentacles & Reptilicus
On Blu-ray June 16, 2015
Invincible…Indestructible! Two underwater creature shockers on Blu-ray for the first time! Scream Factory proudly presents the monstrous arrival of Tentacles and Reptilicus in a double feature Blu-ray release on June 16, 2015.
TENTACLES
It’s angry. It’s hungry. It’s extremely well-armed and it’s descending on a small seaside town to sample the local cuisine! John Huston, Shelley Winters, Bo Hopkins and Henry Fonda do all they can to keep a giant marine menace from turning their sleepy village into a one-stop snack-shop in this fast-paced thriller! Directed by cult director/producer Ovidio G. Assonitis (Beyond the Door, The Visitor, The Curse), Tentacles is a menacing jolt-a-thon that’ll grip you with relentless terror and never let go!
REPTILICUS
Discover the true meaning of survival of the fittest, as a terrifying creature from the past brings the future to its knees! Packed with thrills, chills and prehistoric spills, Reptilicus proves that “if cats have nine lives, monsters have even more” (Citizen News)! Directed by Sidney W. Pink (writer and producer of the cult films The Angry Red Planet, Pyro), Reptilicus is a spine-chilling creature feature about a cold-blooded 90-foot killer whose time has come… again!
