Here's a trailer I made for Psycho III a few years back, using a piece of music from the film...check it out...

Its fine.
Can't wait to see those July announcements..

Phantom of the Paradise is coming through Arrow.
I hope we can get a US release soon.

[Pete Rock]

It's not a horror movie, and it looks like Sony has the rights so I'm guessing it's out of the question. I will go ahead and throw it out there anyway. How about Berry Gordy's The Last Dragon? This is one of my favorite movies of all time, and the only company that could possibly do it justice is Shout.

[Vixen of the Night]

I've tried posting many times and my messages still haven't been approved. So I'll keep it short, as I already sent a PM explaining why a certain title must be released. But I'll say, the exclusive A.I.P. edits of various films need to be released. Since as cool as having the uncut versions available is. Seeing the versions first released in the U.S. is historically important, and a lot of fun as well and sometimes seem 'better' if for no other reason than nostalgia for being the first version of the film seen and enjoying.

They Call Her One Eye, is my #1 request.

Others would be Mario Bava's Black Sabbath and Black Sunday.

Blood and Lace, as mentioned earlier is also a never been available on home video title that would be awesome to have released on both formats. That's one twisted cult flick and worth seeking out if you haven't seen it already.

[DenOfEarth]

Say Cliff, i was wondering for the 29th set of MST3K that is there any chance for a DVD of the MST3K version of Incredible Melting Man? i enjoy the movie in both formats and i would be pleased if you included it on the next MST3K set this winter.

While your at it, how about Killdozer? it needs a blu-ray/DVD combo badly with remastered picture and sound with commentary, interviews, ABC promo from 1974 broadcast and also photo gallery.

the two key principals on EVE, the director and the star ,are dead, so I can't imagine a commentary being recorded for this.

[DenOfEarth]

How about just The Vindicator and Steel and Lace as a double feature instead? MGM/Fox owns them, so why not?

Raw Meat (AKA Death Line) is another MGM title I'd love to see.

"Mind the doors..."

[Camp_Crystal_Lake]

I'm hoping the July 15th announcement will contain at least one obscure film or one 80's slasher movie.

[Nielsb90]

Just received Phantasm II and The Burning in the mail.. Holy **** these are nice editions! I think I will end up with a whole shelf of these! Already had Halloween III

I'd also love to see it, but I'm expecting Twilight Time to get it.

That didn't stop Warner from producing a "commentary" for THE GETAWAY with Steve McQueen and he's been dead since the early 80's. Virtual commentaries, or chat tracks consisting of archival audio clips, is rarely-used but can be a quite effective feature. A carefully-edited virtual track could make for a fascinating extra. Clearing the clips might be the biggest roadblock but I'd really like to see more companies doing this.

Don't wish all the slashers away at once, you just got two yesterday.

To notify mods about updates to the 'No' list in the first post, shouldn't we be using the report button? I've done that a few times, but no changes were made. Psycho IV can be added, and Street Trash removed, as Synapse will be releasing it next month, and have always had the rights anyway.

Excellent idea no doubt! this could sell well.

Phantom of Paradise would make a good blu-ray no doubt.

How about Martin (1977) Collector's Edition blu-ray? United Film distributation owns it.

Not sure what is up with all the Psycho IV hate.
