The back of the box with the following plot blurb:

"A touch like no other..."

In this wildly imaginative and risqué parody of a classic tale, Edward Penishands introduces us to Edward, a gentle and misunderstood soul whose hands are, let's just say, "unique". Created by an eccentric inventor who tragically passed before completing his work, Edward is left to navigate a world that doesn't quite know what to do with him -- or his particular "appendages".

When he's taken in by a curious suburban family, Edward's innocence and "hands-on" talents soon cause a stir in the community, leading to moments of outrageous comedy, sensual exploration, and a few surprisingly tender revelations.

Packed with hilarious innuendos, over-the-top performances, and a heart as big as its humor, Edward Penishands is an unforgettable adult adventure that will leave you both laughing and blushing.

"Not your average fairy tale, but one you'll remember forever!"

THE NIGHT OF THE HUNTER (1955)

#VHSeptember2026 🎥🎦📽🎞🎬🎟🍿 #filmsky #moviesky

A foot-tall plastic hammerhead shark-man with his arm resting on the black clamshell VHS copy of NIGHT OF THE HUNTER

The back of the box with the following plot blurb

"Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep's clothing." Thus begins this tense, powerful screen chronicle depicting the timeless struggle of Good and Evil, and the triumph of spirit over will. Charles Laughton brilliantly directs this powerful melodrama, starring Robert Mitchum as a psychopathic preacher in relentless pursuit of two children possessing their dead father's stolen fortune. Mitchum's murdering minister claims the children's trusting mother (Shelley Winters) as one of his many victims. Screen legend Lillian Gish is the kindly woman who provides a temporary refuge for the orphaned children.

Celebrated author James Agee wrote the riveting screenplay, hauntingly photographed by Stanley Cortez (The Magnificent Ambersons). The eerily beautiful score by Walter Schumann heightens the mood of malevolence and adds a creeping suspense to every scene. Laughton takes the rural setting of Depression America and transforms it into a terrifying world of looming menace seen through the eyes of children stalked by a vicious killer. A true cinematic masterpiece, rightfully hailed by Pauline Kael as "one of the most frightening movies ever made."
