Perfect!

I'm kind of dreading the day when I run out of new Franco to watch...

[drat]

Thanks for this news! Always happy to add some Franco to the collection.

Their Facebook page said that if you want to pay with paypal you have to click the blue paypal button but I can't seem to find it.

[Blu Titan]

Looks like a really cool oddity for my collection. I will make an order tomorrow .

[Martin_31]

Is Dorado Films a new company? First time hearing about them. Is this a US release? Is this their first Blu-ray release? Don't know much about them. Appreciate it if anyone can give some back story on them and this release.

Oh, and be sure to use Chrome when placing an order. Supposedly people are having problems creating an account on other browsers.

It's their first blu, that I know of anyways. They have released DVDs (Argoman The Fantastic Superman, that I know of).

They seem to have a library of films, ranging from Italian horror/crime/sex comedy/westerns and Spanish horror.

Awesome news. The more Jess Franco, the better.

Yes, can anyone find the Paypal button/option? I don't want to use my credit card if it's not a company/website I'm familiar with.

#54. I'm a sucker for Franco films.

[SpiderBaby]

Oh, and since I don't see a release date on their site, they posted on their Facebook page a couple weeks ago that purchases will be sent out November 22nd.

I messaged them about the PayPal button issue earlier; they replied they'll have their person who handles the site fix it tomorrow ASAP.

[G. Costanz]

Dorado Films has been around for ages.

Unfortunately, these 2 films are "forgotten" for a reason. Probably 2 of Franco's dullest films. Although, I'm not sure how "forgotten" Orloff is, since, if I recall, Intervision released that one a while back on DVD.

Update from their Facebook page says that it will take up to 3 business days to fix.

[30hertzrumble]

I'll support Dorado's effort here even though I'm not especially interested in these films. I'm just hoping they dip into their well of Euro-spy titles. They have a bunch of Ken Clarks that would kill on Blu.

Thanks for the heads up OP
...I'll just wait for the collector's version "Same on disc content as the Ultimate Edition"

No problem.

I think both the Ultimate and Collectors (when the numbered Ultimate sells out they will start the Collectors) is just timed releases. After the clock ends, they will just sell a retail version on Amazon, etc.

[bruce holecheck]

I got #71, but I think them limiting their "ultimate edition" to 1500 is extremely optimistic, haha.

[DJR662]

There's only one Franco film I need on Blu-ray: Faceless (1988).
