Producer Martin Folse occasionally airs this film on his own Louisiana TV station.

Hard to believe it's been 30 years since this debuted on video...

I overlooked this one when I published the book, but Code Red released this Pueblo, Colorado-based film on disc a few years back. Local filmmaker John Henry Johnson was at the helm, and the film is periodically screened in Pueblo by the Southeastern Colorado Heritage Center.

I can't actually find a trailer online (although one was included on the DVD), so here's the whole movie, thanks to a YouTube poster.

Feeling a Little Crabby

I'll be reviewing the Blu-ray release of Island Claws for an upcoming issue of SCREEM magazine, a piece that will include comments from two of the film's stars. In advance of that, I thought I'd share a few images from the film's various marketing campaigns that I stumbled across.

First up is the VHS cover art, which was re-used for the new Scorpion Blu-ray.

Then there's this poster image, which appears to be for the overseas, Spanish-language video release.

And finally, this mysterious image that I found in a chat room that may have been from some pre-release promotional material, sporting a completely different title.

My Island Claws coverage will be in the spring issue of SCREEM.
