I remember some people saying the Shout 4K doesn't have good compression, but it does carry the Mono and better colors than the Lionsgate 4K.
Is there a better option in terms of compression?

Not if you want the mono and the new transfer.

Who has the rights to Halloween in the UK? I’d love to see what Second Sight would do with it.

As far as anyone knows it isn’t currently licensed for home video release to any entity in the UK, the rights are with the international rights holder. The Lionsgate UK release is OOP.

Yes, it would be very, very good if someone over there could get ahold of it and give it a Fidelity In Motion encode and a better mono track.

Telemachus · 08-11-2024, 10:34 PM

Damn I would rebuy the first film if Second Sight did it instantly, get David M on that compression

Can’t believe we are only about 7 weeks away from being able to watch these again (well, assuming one waits until Oct 1st)!

steev210 · 08-12-2024, 12:15 AM

31 days is waaayyy too short for my annual Halloween horror movie binge. I start in September and even then, I still don't feel like it's enough time.

True! I’m not a big horror fan, but this is the time I watch a few.

You’re right - just not enough time in the month. That stupid thing called a job always gets in the way

I start mid September. That's when I put out my Halloween decorations.

I judge it by when Sam Adams "Octoberfest" (their spelling, not mine) shows up in stores. Arrived August 5th this year! Let the horror commence!

Yeah, all the Oktoberfest and pumpkin beers started hitting the shelves in my area 2 weeks ago. My favorite seasonal beer doesn't arrive for a few more months, Sierra Nevada Celebration.

Kyle15 · 08-12-2024, 03:21 AM

Every month for me is Halloween when it comes to watching movies.

Telemachus · 08-12-2024, 03:35 AM

I watch Halloween films every month or two and no telling when I will just get the urge to marathon them all, by the time October comes around I'm a little tired of it tbh, I'll usually pick 2 or 3 to do that night.

Nosferatu31 · 08-12-2024, 03:37 AM

I watch horror all year round but my Halloween and Christmas themed films are only watched September through December.

I would have preferred a driving game personally. The franchise has got some iconic vehicles. None more so than the Smith's Grove wagon.

The game they revealed today is very disappointing.
