VCI Home Entertainment will release on Blu-ray
The Slime People / The Crawling Hand (1963). The double-feature release is scheduled to arrive on the market on April 21.
THE SLIME PEOPLE
"Golden Turkey" fans, attention! It's a veritable voyage to the bottom of the sci-fi barrel as prehistoric"Slime People" emerge from the sewers of Los Angeles! The atom-age U.S. army is no match for this small band of spear-toting boogeymen and the city is evacuated. Left behind and forced to fight for survival are a TV sportscaster, a science professor, his two glamorpuss daughters, a bashful Marine and a nutty author in love with a sheep.
THE CRAWLING HAND
A manned rocket returning from the Moon is invaded by an alien life force that possesses the astronaut, maintains control of his disembodied hand after a California beach crash-landing, and then imposes its will on a local medical student (Rod Lauren). Veteran players Kent Taylor, Richard Arlen, Alan Hale and Arline Judge struggle to retain their dignity in this five-fingered sci-fiasco!
