I'm really starting to wonder about Amazon's system for categorizing movies. Left out of their "horror" DVD offerings for week of April 27th were The Descent Part 2, Mega Piranha, and the newest Tales from the Darkside collection (Season 3). Huh? In any event, they are indeed being released on home video this week, along with a big batch of flicks most of us around the Dread Central offices are not too familiar with.
Including in the "batch" mentioned above are a couple of serial killer flicks -- The Fear Chamber and Passed the Door of Darkness -- as well as the intriguing sounding Sympathy, which takes place entirely in a motel room with only three actors. We also get a couple of documentaries and part of a long-running reality TV show: Legend of the Witches, History's Mysteries: Fear Files - Zombies, and "Ghost Hunters": Season Five, Part Two.
