I have been informed that the Return Of Swamp Thing is not in mono. They have included both DD 5.1 and DTS on the DVD.. It was a very nice surprise to find when I got the screener DVD. I am still working on the review.

I have received a screener of Return Of Swamp Thing. I will be reviewing soon. A very special thanks to Image Entertainment for the screener.

from Image Entertainment:

Synopsis: Everyone's favorite muck-encrusted plant-man is back in this tongue-in-cheek action-adventure, based on the award-winning DC comic series. Determined to solve the mysterious death of her mother, beautiful horticulturist Abigail Arcane ("Spin City's" Heather Locklear) visits her stepfather, Dr. Anton Arcane (Louis Jourdan), in his high-tech laboratory. Unfortunately Arcane is bent on taking her life for the creation of his immortality serum. Coming to her rescue is the former Dr. Alex Holland, now Swamp Thing, who sweeps her away to the heart of the bayou where they soon fall head over heels in love. But their romance goes awry when Arcane ruthlessly hunts down these unlikely lovers with a fiendish array of weaponry! Chock full of witty dialogue, dazzling stunt work and striking species Sarah Douglas (Superman II) and scream queen Monique Gabrielle.

MESSAGE FROM DIRECTOR JIM WYNORSKI:

I got this message from Mr. Wynorski in the guest book.

Hi, I directed the lovely Sarah in THE RETURN OF SWAMP THING about a dozen years ago. She was a real trooper and did a fantastic job. Glad to see someone's put together a page for her. And a wonderful one at that. If you talk to her, tell her Jim Wynorski says hello.

RETURN OF SWAMP THING

RATED: PG-13

YEAR RELEASED: 1989

CAST: Sarah Douglas, Louise Jourdan, Heather Locklear, and Dick Durock as Swamp Thing.

Directed by: Jim Wynorski

In 1989, Sarah appeared in the movie "Return Of Swamp Thing". I went and saw Swamp Thing 2 since Sarah was in it. I was disppointed in the movie roles in Solarbabies & Nightfall, so I was very happy about Sarah's role in Swamp Thing. It was a very nice supporting role. She played another strong villain. She played both Arcane's lover and assistant. It was very cool for Sarah to play that kind of role. She does a great job. She was then betrayed by Arcane, and she got pissed. I don't blame her. She then decided to change her ways, and help Heather Locklear. I know that most fans hate this movie, since I am a true Sarah Douglas fan. I thought her work in Swamp Thing 2 is worth a viewing. I remember being very happy after seeing the movie. I like how she turned good, even when she was killed by Arcane.

I had not seen the movie in ages. I finally picked up the video and watched it tonight. I still like her role in the movie. I had forgotten what nice outfits she wore in the movie. It was cool to watch the movie again.
