Motel Hell is a movie my dad told me about after spending a night in front of the tube after having trouble sleeping. It sounded like a fevered dream to me, and years later I was able to experience it for myself by renting it on VHS. It reminded me of an old EC comic or CREEPY rag, which wins big bloody points with your crusty cryptkeeper pal. I have yet to review it, but consider it on the to-do list for lucky 2013. Check out the re-release art and special features for this beast from Arrow Video. I loves me some Arrow Video, all their other boo-ray treatments have been pretty phenomenal, and I bet this one is no different.
