Twentieth Century Fox have announced a bunch of two-film releases all available to buy on 13 August.
Each pack features two DVDs and the original theatrical trailers and will retail for £19.99.
First up we have one of the first 'gross out' comedies and it's sequel - Porky's and Porky's II: The Next
Day. Long before American Pie, the Porky's films really did set out to offend following the lives of a bunch
of rowdy 50's teenagers who are all out for just one thing.
Charlie Sheen takes the leading role in Hot Shots and Hot Shots Part Deux. Yet another
two parodies from the brain of director Jim Abrahams - the bloke who brought us the
Naked Gun and Airplane franchises. While neither of the Hot Shots films match those two franchises,
there's still plenty of laughs to be had.
Some Indiana Jones-esque adventure comes our way in the form of Romancing The Stone and Jewel of
the Nile. Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner are the heroes while Danny DeVito plays the villian. Both
films are hugely enjoyable, if ultimately forgettable, and could be well worth a look.
