Our weekly look at what’s weird in theaters, on hot-off-the-presses DVDs, and on more distant horizons…

This is the week the film world goes into post-Christmas hibernation: no new releases, repertory theaters are shuttered for renovations, even the key grips take the week off to stay home with the kids. There’s almost nothing going on, but they did sneak out one DVD release this week…

NEW ON DVD:

The Beast and the Vixens [AKA The Beauties and the Beast] (1974): A softcore porn Bigfoot film, with the Sasquatch abducting busty ladies for his harem. La Bête it’s not, but it is one of those “they really used to show movies like this in actual theaters?” experiences. Buy The Beast and the Vixens.

That’s it! We should have more for you next week.

What are you looking forward to? If you have any weird movie leads that I have overlooked, feel free to leave them in the COMMENTS section.
