Like the first set, all of them are licensed from Multicom.

Nice!

I really like The Seduction of Gina

but I love all classic TVMs that get blu-ray releases.

HorrorBlu · 04-27-2023, 07:02 PM

Anyone know if this is wide retail, or through Vinegar Syndrome? Also, if the packaging matches the first?

JasonMichael · 04-27-2023, 07:05 PM

Good timing, my order with the first volume just shipped from Vinegar Syndrome yesterday, should be here tomorrow!
It's clearing out at half price. Only 128 left in stock.

All in for this!

This should be through MVD. Breathless was the last FCE title distributed through OCN.

As brainofj72 stated, it should be coming from MVD. The art definitely matches the design of the first volume, and i think jah is quite aware of how persnickety we all are, so I will say it is going to match.

According to the FCE FB page, this has a release date of August 15th

In a way, I'm glad the second volume boxset is not being released close to the VS Halfway to Black Friday sale (ie. too many things close together) and is nearly three months after that. Thanks for posting the update.

By_His_Strypes · 05-05-2023, 11:48 PM

All three of these movies are available on FreeVee...

I am kind of bummed if this is their next release (because of the longer wait in-between titles) but it will be great to have it once it is available

Savage_Blu · 05-06-2023, 06:51 PM

Much like the first set, I'm only interested in one of the films. Didn't buy that one, but I might have to grab this volume at sale price just for The Seduction Of Gina.

Big Bertinelli fan?

eh...not necessarily. 10 year old me thought she was 'pretty' when I watched The Seduction Of Gina on tv in '84. Would be purely a nostalgic buy.

Will there be any Partner label titles for June and July? If there are some for one or both of those months, maybe there may end up being a standalone FCE title among them?

Breathless is the last FCE release to come from OCN distribution. Everything else looks to be from MVD going forward.

Appreciate you pointing this out MifuneFan. One of those occasional slips where I'd had a senior moment and forgot some or all of the information about the current status with FCE and OCN Distribution.

Once the Primetime Panic: Volume Two boxset has been released, I hope to be able to get a copy. This sort of title you especially want to support, increasing the chances of further releases.

phantasmatt · 07-17-2023, 03:12 AM

Will this set come in a box with 3 individual bluray cases? (Like the first one did from vinegar syndrome.) From the FCE website, it sounds like it’ll be just a standard case with a slipcover.

JasonMichael · 07-17-2023, 03:15 AM

We know for sure that it is a slip, not a box.
