[Deciazulado]

Danza Macabra: Volume Two — The Italian Gothic Collection Blu-ray



plus a CD.

[Batgirl911]

The cover looks like an ad for anacin and Castle Of Blood will get a separate release but Rosalba is tough to resist.

[indravayu]

JEKYLL is new to me but the others are some absolute favorites of mine - very psyched to get them in HD.

Hoping there's a solo 4K UHD release of Castle of Blood

I'll bet there will be. Probably not right away, but Severin also did separate releases of a couple of titles in Vol. 1 some months after. Danza Macabra is by far the most likely title to be released on its own from Vol. 2.

4 films and 7 discs?

Why is Castle of Blood 3 discs? I understand 1 4K UHD an 1 BD. what is the 3rd disc?

And what constitutes the additional BD?

Thanks. Didn't realize Jekyll would be 2 discs.

Amazon Pre-order

Danza Macabra: Volume Two — The Italian Gothic Collection Blu-ray

[amputd]

This is a tempting package, but Jekyll doesn’t have the same appeal as the other titles. I also doubt the picture quality on that title will be very good. Seems a little like filler to me.

[ThingFromMars77]

Will the UHD disc be region free? I'm wondering this since the announced specs doesn't clarify that the Region A wording which is reported for "Castle of Blood" reffers to the BD disc only

[Deutschmann]

Does anyone have any information yet on whether or not the topless scene in Castle of Blood is included?

It's not worth it to pay over $100 for this set if Castle of Blood is missing those gorgeous knockers.

I'm a huge Barbara Steele fan though, so I hope it is. I would really love to replace my DVD.

[Video Ghoul]

I posted this in the 4K thread too:

My set came today. The blu ray of Danza Macabra is actually a UHD, meaning I can't play it at all. I wonder if my set was the only one affected, or if this is widespread.

EDIT: I wiped the disc down even though it looked totally clean, and I can get it to play in one of my players. So I was wrong, it wasn't produced incorrectly.

I've had mine for over a mouth, and it was a Blu-ray, so not every one of them were produced that way.

I couldn't quite make sense of your post. You stated that it is a UHD so you couldn't play it at all. You edited to say that after wiping the disc you were able to get it to play. Was it actually a UHD or was it a "dirty" blu-ray that you needed to clean for it to play?

[sb5]

Better not wipe the disc any further - it will turn into a DVD.

It looked spotless right out of the case, so I popped it into my main player but it wouldn’t load it (and this happened with the back up player and computer). I assumed it was a UHD because it wouldn’t load, and the disc had an ID number that ended with UH and not BR.

As a last ditch effort I used a microfiber cloth on the seemingly clean disc, and now it works.

Is their likely to be a standalone release of The Devil's Lover?

Wondering the same thing. That's really the only title I'm keen to get. Big Rosalba Neri fan.

If not, maybe when there's a really crazy sale price on the box at some point I'll grab it. There's been a few Severin box sets that hit good discounts on ebay (House of Psychotic Women and the Lenzi/Baker Giallo Collection).
