One would regularly wait weeks to get anything from Bill. He had a life, and it's good for him. It seems to be working for DF, so it's really not as big a deal as you are making it. If you are able to exercise some degree of patience, it's not too hard to get these titles.

It is however a rather poor business model. If they only have their website open 50% of the time they should give more titles to other retailers to sell.

No it's not easy, I don't understand the mindless ideas here. I'm a customer, I want to pay the shop, preferably directly to the manufacturer, and the manufacturer is not interested? The other thing is, is the Dark Force ship to Europe? My problem is also that some shops don't ship, so I can either get it very expensive ($50 movie + $39 postage + $10 virtual address mediation service + 21% tax fees) or download it from the internet

But I'll try to wait, if there is an offer and they can send it, I'm willing to pay something extra.

Dave showed off about 30min of Drive-In #19 on the DF facebook page.
Shaping up to be a solid release!

I wasn't planning on getting that one, but it did look great from what he showed. I'm probably in for a copy once it goes up on the site.

*Edit noticed the site is back up again. Grabbed Dead Pit when I had the chance

Late update about my order -- my Gates of Hell Blu-ray with the awesome glow-in-the-dark slipcover arrived on Friday in perfect condition. Thanks DF / Demon Dave

Glad to get Primal Scream for $10, been wanting that for awhile now and I'm always down for some low-fi sci-fi.
Gates of Hell for $20 with that primo slip was a no brainer. While I have Walt's release of GOH, I've been wanting to checkout the "GRINDHOUSE RELEASE HD MASTER FROM ACTUAL 35MM DRIVE-IN PRINT!!", and the b-side Psycho From Texas looks like some classic 70's 'exploitation'.

Thanks Dave!

I just realized that my order above from 3/22 has yet to ship...anyone else still waiting for shipment from around the 22-23rd?

Yes, same here. I'm also still waiting for my order from the 22nd to ship, which included the Gates of Hell/Psycho from Texas Lightning 666 release.

We are going to take care of it for you. Don't worry we could never deny Chucky.

If that order contained FINAL EXAM 4K it has yet to be shipped as they are still in replication. Should be out very soon now at which time we will be showing the new 4K transfer as well as the awesome looking glossy new slip on the Facebook page. Won't be much longer and we anxiously are awaiting that one.

My March 22 order was #17795 and did not include Final Exam 4k, but still did not ship. It was just the Gates of Hell/Psycho from Texas lightning deal 666 with upgraded slip cover. It would be great if you could check on it, and send it out the door. Much appreciated!

Same here....mine did not contain Final Exam.
Gates of Hell/Psycho from Texas, Primal Scream and Kill Crazy.

I submitted an email via the Superstore inquiring about the order I place on the 22nd.

Thank you for the information
I got info from FB from DarkForce Ent that they will open the store this weekend (01-02 April). I was worried because I was away on the trip. I was lucky though , I thought of it on the train in the morning when I was coming from a trip and the store was available. What pleased me was that the store had easy registration (in cellphone) and shipping directly to Europe to Prague. I bought immediately for $35.99 and postage $20 was reasonable
We are a small country, that's why we are sometimes afraid that the shop will not ship.

I just don't know which post will be chosen, if Dark Force Ent will send the US post (I have good experience from the past from 2005 - 2010) or it will go with FedEx.

[DaylightsEnd]

Thanks Demon for getting my order sorted and on its way!
