MVD Entertainment Group Selects Nov. 22 For The Blu-ray And DVD Debut Of Director Patrick Read Johnson's 5-25-77

DVD & Blu-ray Release Report, Ralph Tribbey

Mark it down.  Do it now!!   Nov. 22, if you are a genre fan, you have to have this film as part of your library … that’s all you need to know.

The film in question is writer/director Patrick Read Johnson’s brilliantly-imagined biopic (with lots of enjoyable embellishments), 5-25-77.   It will be available on Nov. 22 from MVD Entertainment Group on both DVD and Blu-ray.

Film geeks and genre fans will immediately recognize the significance of the May 25, 1977 date.   That’s the day Star Wars made its theatrical debut … and the world changed.  Johnson’s 5-25-77 is his labor of love about how that film changed his life … it’s a wonderful tale.

When we say “labor of love,” that is true in every sense of the word.  Johnson began work in earnest on his biopic back in 2001 (an encounter with Star Wars producer Gary Kurtz in 1999 set things in motion), which is also significant as in 1968, as just a child, he saw Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey and that set him on a path of being a film geek and filmmaker (Spaced Invaders, Baby’s Day Out, Angus).

With limited funding, he shot most of the raw footage for 5-25-77 over a three-year period beginning in 2004, with Freaks and Geeks TV series’ “Sam Weir” in the lead as “Pat Johnson” (played by John Francis Daley … perhaps best known as Sweets from the Bones TV series).

A rough cut of the film was screened in 2012; again in 2013 … and yet again in 2017.   Finally, it is done.

As to the story, which is all pretty much true (artistic license taken, of course), by 1976, Johnson, born and raised in Wadsworth, Illinois, had become something of an amateur filmmaker.   This made him both a geek and a high school outsider … and it also drove his mother nuts (played by Collen Camp — The Swinging Cheerleaders, Smile, Valley Girl, etc.).   Johnson, it seems, became obsessed with the work of the late Douglas Trumbull.

Out of desperation, as the story goes, she made a cold-call to the then-editor of American Cinematographer, Herb Lightman (played here by Austin Pendleton — What's Up, Doc?, Short Circuit, Starting Over, etc.), and told him of her plight and her son’s obsession … and, he tells her, no problem, send him to L.A.

It was one of those dream trips.  He meets Trumbull (Michael Pawlak) in post work on Spielberg’s Close Encounters of the Third Kind, who also just happens to be there (played by Kevin J. Stephens).   A dream come true … but it is only just beginning.

Johnson’s next stop is Industrial Light and Magic, where he gets a tour, sees the amazing miniatures from Star Wars and is treated to a rough-cut screening of the film.   It is time to go back home …

DVD & Blu-ray Release Report, Ralph Tribbey

Once back in Wadsworth, Johnson is an alien.   He’s seen the future and he might as well be talking to the apes from 2001: A Space Odyssey.   His friends can’t quite grasp what he is going on about (light sabers, Death Star, Darth Vader, etc.) … and being an outsider, those who find him odd treat him with distain.  In a way this new-found knowledge is bittersweet.

The movie is finally complete, ironically the late Gary Kurtz was one of the producers …   Mark it down, if you have the Star Wars films (not necessarily the stuff that Disney has been churning out of late) in your film library, then 5-25-77 from MVD Entertainment Group on either DVD or Blu-ray on Nov. 22 is a must!!   Repeat, A MUST!!!

Bonus goodies include commentary from filmmaker Patrick Read Johnson, who is joined by Seth Gaven, founder of the A.V. Squad and editor of Johnson’s Spaced Invaders, a post-screening Q&A session with Johnson at the 2013 Fantasia Film Festival and extensive photo galleries.

Bayview Entertainment Preps Three Genre-Themed Films For Their Blu-ray Debut On Nov. 22 • Bridgehurst Asylum for the Sane • Small Blue Disc • Pavilion

DVD & Blu-ray Release Report, Ralph Tribbey

For genre fans and those who savor discovering indie films of merit, Bayview Entertainment has just the ticket on Nov. 22, with not one, or two, but three genre surprises making their debut on Blu-ray on that date.

First up is the “mother of inspiration” gem, Bridgehurst Asylum for the Sane, from writer/director Brent Stainer.

The Archbishop Murphy High School was in a jam.   Covid, no live plays, but they didn’t give up, instead they worked with director Brent Stainer, along with fledgling student writers Adriana Hilerio and Julia Hawkins to come up with the inspired Love at First Zoom, a below-the-radar production that pleased everyone involved.    Consider that a dry run.

Stainer got to talking with Carrie Wright, the program director for the school’s theatre program and, along with Hawkins, they hit upon the idea of a second production (again no live stage performances) where the Covid pandemic could be worked into the plot of a horror tale.

DVD & Blu-ray Release Report, Ralph Tribbey

The result, Bridgehurst Asylum for the Sane, which takes place during the Spanish Flu pandemic of 1918/1919 (so masks would be a common factor).   Following the Civil War, it was a common — and quite reprehensible — practice to place disruptive young women in asylums as being insane.   It was abusive and very corrupt.

This is the predicament that Holly Emerson (Emma Kormanyos; aka: Emma Weller) finds herself in.   Sane, but committed to Bridgehurst nonetheless.   It is hell on earth … and a corrupt place that is beyond redemption! 

DVD & Blu-ray Release Report, Ralph Tribbey

Also making its Blu-ray debut on Nov. 22 is director Darren Haywood’s alien-abduction tale, Small Blue Disc, featuring the acting pairs of Leon Finnan/ Neville Cann (as the character Ben Hardaker) and Michael Otteson/ Christopher Clarke (as Gus Rafferty) who portray the abductees as both 16-year-old teenagers and as adults, 30 years later.

And lastly, genre fans can check out writer/director Eveshka Ghost’s sci-fi thriller, Pavilion, starring Tim van den Berg and Pip Rose as Alex and Emily, a might-be couple; could-be lovers … if they were not caught in a time-loop where Emily has been assaulted by a mysterious man, who Alex is chasing … and who might in fact be himself!

If you love puzzles, twists and turns … Pavilion on Blu-ray from Bayview Entertainment on Nov. 22.

Dark Force Entertainment's Blu-ray Drive-In Feature Promotion Lined-Up For Delivery On Nov. 22

DVD & Blu-ray Release Report, Ralph Tribbey

Dark Force Entertainment, with sales and distribution expertise provided by MVD Entertainment Group, has three — yes, count’em, three — new additions to its popular “Drive-in Double Feature” line of Blu-ray products.

These are all new HD transfers from the original 35mm prints … street date for all three Blu-ray editions will be on Nov. 22.

First up is Drive in Double Feature #15: Flossie, Keep It Up, Jack.   An “adults only” drive-in double feature (wink wink, nod nod)

Swedish filmmaker Mac Ahlberg’s adult-themed Flossie, starring Marie Forså (The Devil’s Plaything, Butterfly), was a big hit in Sweden, so it wasn’t long before a trio of different domestic distributors picked it up, dubbed into English and gave it regional (market-by-market) distribution beginning in 1976.

Teamed with Flossie is British filmmaker Derek Ford’s 1974 brothel-comedy, Keep It Up, Jack, starring Mark Jones (Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back, The Girl from Starship Venus) and Sue Longhurst (Confessions of a Window Cleaner, Come Play with Me).  

DVD & Blu-ray Release Report, Ralph Tribbey

Keep It Up, Jack found its way to these shores in 1975.

Next up from Dark Force Entertainment is Drive in Double Feature #16: Classroom Teasers, How to Seduce a Woman.  

Director Gus Trikonis’ Classroom Teasers, was originally released theatrically in 1976 as The Student Body, got a VHS release … and then resurfaced theatrically in 1981 retitled as Classroom Teasers.   

Carrie (Jillian Kesner — Starhops, Evil Town, Beverly Hills Vamps), Chicago (Janice Heiden — 99 and 44/100% Dead!, The Wild McCullochs) and Mitzi (June Fairchild — Pretty Maids All in a Row, Thunderbolt and Lightfoot) are three reform school beauties who are offered clemency if they agree to be lab rats for college researcher, Dr. Blalock (Warren Stevens — Forbidden Planet, No Name on the Bullet).   Naturally things with his “experiment” don’t come off as planned!!

DVD & Blu-ray Release Report, Ralph Tribbey

The co-feature is writer/director Charles Martin’s 1974 sexploitation comedy, How to Seduce a Woman, starring drive-in favorite, Angel Tomkins (Prime Cut, The Teacher, Walking Tall Part II).

Rounding out Dark Force Entertainment’s Nov. 22 “Drive In” promotion is Double Feature #17: Double Nickels, Between the Covers.  

Writer/director Jack Vacek’s Double Nickels arrived theatrically during the summer of 1977 and features Jack Vacek — from Gone in 60 Seconds — as a CHIP who, along with his partner, Ed (Edward Abrahms), get conned into stealing cars that they think they are “repossessing” as a part-time gig.

The co-feature, Between the Covers, is a 1973 sex-comedy from German filmmaker Ralf Gregan, starring Heidi Kappler … it was picked up and dubbed for domestic audiences and released theatrically in the spring of 1975.
