Yet another languishing in drafts post – years old, let’s just say another pet peeve, ( not to mention this post has languished long enough for this Joe Gage link to be a broken link)
what’s wrong with this picture(s) – we went over this once before, and we have one more (at least) problem clicking this will give you part of the 2nd answer

With so many incredible men in these films, THAT’s what they chose for the covers?
Agreed!
They’re so many hot men in these three films and enough of them are anonymous enough that you maybe could imagine that the cover men are in the film, be we know that Les Stine and the amazing Joe Roberts are NOT. That is Joe Roberts, isn’t it? AKA Marconi AKA Tharp. Or do I have the name wrong?
This is the special DVD collection. Released fairly recently right? You’d think the least HIS could do would be to come up with new covers using the actual performers from the movie on the front. I would do Jack Wrangler, Richard Locke, Fred Halsted, Will Seagers, etc. Any of those would make excellent front cover models.
The original Gagetape VHS covers were THE BEST. They should have brought those back somehow. But this is the HIS release, so they stuck with a similar design to their VHS box covers. Which at least had the cover models with their heads with their heads cut off. So it was just a body. That’s not as bad. But then on this release they’ve got them on the back cover with their I’m-not-actually-in-this faces. Well, except for the 3rd guy. Who is the 3rd guy anyway? From LA Tool & Die? Anyway.
HIS needs to do better. And I guess I need to relax. Haha
amazing Joe Roberts ??? nope – but at least he was making movies in the same era. I’ll let you click the link to refresh your memory. But I never did figure out the 3rd guy (L A Tool) to see if he’s even in the film.
I think Joe Roberts was a pretty good guess, as he is pretty similar. Of course, it’s not as though I didn’t already know the answer from the past posts. Somewhere in my brain. I was going by the tiny photo with the head on the back of the cover and Joe was the only name I came up with. But how could I forget Jason Steele?!
