I vaguely remember a Fangoria interview with Gary Brandner in the 80s where he claimed she ran out of the preview screening crying… I also remember one of her representatives disputing the anecdote. My memory is fuzzy so don't quote me on either point. I did get the sense she was probably less than pleased at the time and who can blame her? It's obviously meant to be funny but if she was just doing her nude scenes in the context of the script and then saw how it was used in the credits that way she'd have every right to be less than thrilled.

I'm amazed that Robot Jox is getting such a packed release. I love the film. Now if only Shout would put just a little more care into their encodes, they'd be damn near perfect.
wow! that's a movie i've wanted to see since i was a kid, but never had the chance...looks like that's about to be fixed.
Like their website isn't ugly enough, they have to be factually incorrect as well. Seriously, that site makes my eyes bleed.
I don't believe the film was released "direct-to-video", as the review states. I strongly recall seeing a theatrical newspaper ad when I was a child visiting my grandparents in the Des Moines area circa 1988. Their farm was surrounded by cornfields, and I remember being creeped out by the scarecrow image in the advertisement. I love this movie and its dark, nightmarish atmosphere. So glad that it's getting a standalone release with special features. I do wonder, however, what the status is with its onetime co-feature Destroyer (1988)?

Holy Crap! When did this get announced... Easy Money/Men at Work Double Feature I thought Shout wasn't releasing comedies anymore because they didn't sell well?

Well there you go, there's another mistake. I was actually referring to the mention of Dark Night of the Scarecrow as a 70s TV movie.
