Comicas y de Aventuras con Chanoc
The popular Mexican comic book hero Chanoc springs to life in these four Spanish-language action comedies from the 1970s. Actor German Valdes portrays the character in the early `70s films LAS TARANTULAS (1973) and EL TIGRE Y EL VAMPIRO (1972), both of which feature Chanoc`s pet tiger. Then Ramon Valdez takes over the reins in the late `70s installments EL CIRCO UNION (1979), in which Chanoc goes to work for a circus and finds himself battling a mysterious crime syndicate; and LA ISLA DE LOS MUERTOS (1975), in which he becomes stranded on a desert island after a boating accident and tangles with local cannibals. All four films are in Spanish without subtitles.

Hollywood Boulevard
Directors Joe Dante and Allan Arkush combined their talents to create this fast-paced spoof of B-movies. Candy Wednesday is a pretty, aspiring young actress who arrives at Miracle Pictures--a studio that cranks out low-budget films--to start her career in their new epic, MACHETE MAIDENS OF MANATAU. There, she quickly meets the company`s wacky staff, including popular leading player Mary McQueen, who is jealous of the new crop of female talent. Then, somebody starts killing off the starlets one by one, leading to a breathtaking shoot-out atop the Hollywood sign, loaded with great stunts and comic sexual shenanigans. HOLLYWOOD BOULEVARD is an appealing and often shameless spoof of the schlock movie business and producer Roger Corman`s B-movie factory, New World Pictures.
