Panik House announced CHAINED HEAT in 2006 before the label dropped off the radar. WOMEN IN PRISON TRIPLE FEATURE set released this year is a limited edition (it will go out of print at the end of the year when Panik House's rights expire). Panik House's disc of CHAINED HEAT is its first uncut DVD release in the states (the Showtime cable version ran only 88 minutes and other versions have run somewhere in between; Anchor Bay UK also released CHAINED HEAT in a set with the other two films seen in Panik House's set, but their version ran 92 minutes [PAL speed] and was actually shorter than the BBFC-cut video release). It is presented on disc 1 in an attractive dual-layer, anamorphic, progressive encoding with fine mono audio. Besides the film's theatrical trailer, disc 1 also includes interviews with Stella Stevens and Sybil Danning who fondly remember the film and the cast. The film can be played with an optional minute-long introduction by Mr. Skin, which spends an equal amount of time informing us who in the film gets naked and promoting his website. |

RED HEAT shares disc 2 with JUNGLE WARRIORS. The progressive, anamorphic transfer of RED HEAT is the least impressive-looking transfer of the set. This is partly due to the sometimes overly dark and sometimes flatly-lit cinematography and the muted mise-en-scene, but the materials may also have been lacking (the film's title card seems to come from the German version, although the rest of the credits are in English). The mono audio is in good condition. This is also reportedly the R-rated cut of the film (the BBFC states that the film was submitted at just under 104 minutes [at 24 fps], which agrees with other references). The Anchor Bay UK disc just under 90 minutes at PAL speed (although the cut 1985 British videotape ran 101 minutes). The film's theatrical trailer is the only related extra. As with CHAINED HEAT and RED HEAT, there is the option to watch it with a one minute Mr. Skin intro. |

JUNGLE WARRIORS shares disc 2 with RED HEAT and is the progressive, anamorphic transfer is the softest-looking in the set, but this has more to do with the gauzy cinematography. The mono audio is fine. The theatrical trailer is the only extra. As with the other two films, there is the option to watch the film with a Mr. Skin intro. |
