Take in a quartet of horror obscurities from the MGM vaults courtesy of Scream Factory. In WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH HELEN?, Debbie Reynold and Shelly Winters flee New York for Hollywood after their sons are convicted of a grisly murder. Soon they begin receiving threatening notes and phone calls, but it it all in Helen's mind? In THE VAGRANT, Bill Paxton plays a young yuppie who buys his dream house only to be tormented by a psychotic vagrant no one else believes exists. In THE GODSEND, a mysterious woman gives birth and leaves her child behind with an English family. When their own children begin to die mysteriously, they start to wonder if sweet Bonnie is such a blessing. In THE OUTING, six teenagers (and two uninvited rape-happy classmates) spend the night in a museum with a magic lamp housing a malevolent djinn that thinks up gory ways to torment and kill his victims.
