JANUARY 24 VHS HISTORY LEASON : MONTEREY HOME VIDEO

This long-lasting video company (started in the mid 80's as a sublabel of Family Home Entertainment and still going strong today) released many little-known (at the time) foreign genre films that entertained viewers hungry for something new. Titles such as THE GRIM REAPER, THE MEAN MACHINE, THE SLASHER, DEADLY SANCTUARY, THE DEVIL'S NIGHTMARE and many other were released all for the first time, in their big-box glory. Monterey didn't skimp on obscure home-grown films either, releasing THE FLESH EATERS, THE LOVE BUTCHER, BONNIE'S KIDS, DEADLY GAMES, THE LEGEND OF ALFRED PACKER, KILL AND GO HIDE, THE SWITCHBLADE SISTERS and many other for the first time in VHS format. Monterey also had a sublabel, called After Hours Entertainment, that released  "dicier" titles like THE DEVIL'S UNDEAD, FIGHT FOR YOUR LIFE, and BLOOD VOYAGE, films that Monterey didn't want to release under their own banner. Monterey also controls the rights to the "Ginger" films, a series of 70's sexploitation/action films that starred Cheri Caffaro as Ginger, an undercover agent who used her body, as well as her fists. These films include: GINGER (1971), THE ABDUCTORS (1972) and GIRLS ARE FOR LOVING (1973). A fourth film, A PLACE CALLED TODAY (1972), is usually mentioned in the same breath but has no connection other than Caffaro appearing in it. Monterey stays in business today selling their catalogue on DVD, which includes many documentaries, self-help and PBS programs. Some of their early release command big bucks today on the collectors market. { text from critcononline.com }
