    AND

    TORGO'S DRIVE-IN Psychotronic Horror Double Bill. The greatest psychotronic drive-in double bill of all time was 'Simon, King Of The Witches' and 'Werewolves on Wheels' in 1971. Both these films are now rare and very hard to find; in particular, old used VHS copies of Simon, King Of The Witches go for a respectable sum on ebay. This is Episode #10 of Torgo's Drive-in. It's our first double bill and also our first higher quality resolution video. This episode also features the full drive-in experience: you get concession stand shorts as well as trailers and previews for such drive-in classics as I Drink Your Blood, I Eat Your Skin, Blood Freak, and Mad Doctor Of Blood Island. This episode of Torgo's Drive-in is rated "PG" (1970's style), I think this would be rated PG-13 or R today
