Horror (and horrible) movies reissued — again

These newly released DVDs are horror movies that are being reissued, some for the umpteenth time.

DRACULA: 75TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION (Universal, 1931, not rated, b/w, $26.98, two discs).

FRANKENSTEIN: 75TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION (Universal, 1931, not rated, b/w, $26.98, two discs). Each of these two classic horror films gets yet another special-edition release, with all the previously released features (including Philip Glass' score for "Dracula" and the Spanish-language version of that film). New extras include a text commentary, a new second audio commentary, a new featurette (about Karloff and Lugosi, respectively) and both discs have the 1998 Kenneth Branagh-narrated documentary "Universal Horror."

Extras: Full frame, audio commentaries, "Universal Horror" documentary, featurettes, photo/poster galleries, trailers, subtitle options (English, French, Spanish), chapters.

THE ADDAMS FAMILY/ADDAMS FAMILY VALUES (Paramount, 1991/1993, PG-13, $14.99). The two very funny "Addams Family" films, with Anjelica Huston and Raul Julia, are a riot, here released together on a single disc.

Extras: Widescreen, trailers, optional English subtitles, chapters.

THE MUNSTERS: TWO-MOVIE FRIGHT FEST (Universal, 1966/1981, not rated, $19.98). The two "Munsters" movies are also repackaged on one disc. "Munster, Go Home!" (1966, widescreen) is a theatrical film; "The Munsters' Revenge" (1981, full frame) is a TV reunion movie.

Extras: Widescreen/full frame, subtitle options (English, French), chapters.

HELLRAISER III: HELL ON EARTH (Paramount, 1991; R for violence, language, sex, nudity; $14.99). The subtitle should be "hell to sit through" for this third in the series of gory, bloody, disgusting films about the demon Pinhead. This time as he's dogged by a TV reporter (Terry Farrell, who later found stardom as Dax on "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine").

Extras: Widescreen, featurette, trailer, optional English subtitles, chapters.

STEPHEN KING'S (Paramount, 1983-90; R for violence, language, nudity; $44.99, four discs). That abbreviated title — "Stephen King's" — is all that's on this box containing four Stephen King movies.

Maybe that's because three of them have his name as part of the title: "Stephen King's Silver Bullet" (1985), a werewolf yarn; "Stephen King's Graveyard Shift" (1990), about a rundown mill infested with rats; and "Stephen King's Pet Sematary" (1989), a box-office hit, but about as ugly, nasty and unpleasant as a movie can get, about a zombie toddler trying to kill his parents.
