There wqas a slew of MGM Midnight Movies supposed to be released,
including "Panic in the Year Zero"/"Last man On Earth". Does anyone know
why these are not available? Any news from MGM?

I snagged all that were available from dvdempire,
the bulk of the rest I got from the local Best Buy,
and the couple final ones I was aware of were a
snap to find on eBay.

The release date got pushed back - I think PANIC/LAST MAN is now due out
on June 7.

Well some got snuck out early, then.  Some friends of mine already have
Panic/Last Man as well as all the others in the latest batch.

The movies that came out last year at this time were Best Buy exclusives
only--
Which may not have ultimately been the sales gimmick MGM thought it was,
and most of '04's Midnight titles (eg. "Ghost in the Invisible Bikini")
seem to be hitting wider re-release this month instead of new
Corman/Arkoff B-titles...Was Panic/Earth one of last year's?
