Critters
Critters 2
Darkness
Dead Alive aka Brain Dead
Fortress
Fritz the Cat
Ghoulies
Ghoulies 2
Hellraiser 2-7
Highway
The Hole
Hot Shots
Hot Shots: Part Duex
House (1986)
House II: The Second Story
I'm Gonna Get You Sucka
In The Mouth of Madness
Stephen King's IT
The Man Who Wasn't There
Maria Full of Grace
Masters of the Universe
Meet the Feebles
The Million Dollar Hotel

I wouldn't be surprised to see most of those on Blu-ray sooner than later.

The bolded ones I would bet my life they will come at some time. Some of the others may also but I don't know them all or they really are movies that may never come to Blu.

FYI, Wizards is already available on BD in the UK. It's region free, I believe:

https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Wizards-Blu-ray/10820/

Poltergeist 2 and 3 are available in Australia

[Clark Kent]

There are actually tens of thousands of movies on DVD that will never make it to Blu-ray, but almost all the ones from the first post will eventually make it.

I seriously doubt they'll ever release:
"Battle Angel" the original anime
"The Bodyguard" 1 and 2, Thai movies
"Castle Freak"
"The Escapist"
"Gene Generation"
"Meatball Machine"
"Onechanbara Bikini Samurai Squad"
"The Onion Movie"
"Pinocchio 964"
"The Pit and the Pendulum" 90s version
"Project A-Ko"
"Rikki-Oh! The Story of Rikki"
"Rubber's Lover"

And these seem a bit borderline to me:
"Azumi" 1 and 2
"Battle Royale II"
"Devil Man"
"Dune" miniseries
"The Executioner" 1 and 2
"The Fortress"
"GI Samurai"
"The Martian Chronicles" miniseries
"My Science Project"
"A Picture of Dorian Gray" 20s version
"Ringu" and its many sequels
"Seed"
"The Stand" miniseries
"Tokyo Gore Police"
"Tunnel Rats"
"V" original miniseries
"Vampire Hunter D"
"Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust"
"Virus" 1975 Sonny Chiba movie
"Virus" newer horror movie
"X: The Movie"

And probably loads of others I missed.

What about Beastmaster? Like Dennis Miller said, HBO stands for 'Hey, Beastmaster's On!'

I was maybe 6 or 7 when this was making the rounds on cable back in the early 80s, don't know how many times I watched it. I bought the DVD collector's edition a few years back, comes with a nice little booklet with animated drawings, movie poster card on back of chapter list, thx/dts soundtrack and 1:85 aspect ratio. Nice all around presentation. Hope the people that bring it to Blu love it as much as I do.

With some of the obscure titles getting release dates, I think all bets are off. I mean if a film like Magic gets a release date who knows? Great movie btw.

[Hatter]

I'll add to the list:

Movies that may never see the light of day on blu:

Psycho Beach Party
Barbarella
LEXX - the series

Movies that will take a while:

Nosferatu 1979
Kill Bill Vol. 1 Japanese edition. I'm talking just for a japanese release to say nothing about an NA release
Lost World
Mighty Joe Young

I could add more but suffice to say a nice chunk of my dvd collection may never get blu upgrades.
