Eaten Alive on DVD
|
The DVD offers some entertaining extras. In fact, some might find the 15 minute interview, entitled My Name is Buck, with costar Robert Englund worth the price of the disc. He has some fantastic stories to share about his career, Hollywood in the 70s, and of course, working on Eaten Alive. The Butcher of Elmendorf: The Legend of Joe Ball is a half-hour featurette featuring an interview with the nephew of Mr. Ball. Back in the 1930s, this creepy character killed some of his lovers and just happened to own a few alligators. There is no correlation between this story and Eaten Alive, but for fans of the real-life macabre, it's a nice little addition to the disc.
