Scream Factory Blu-ray Discussion Thread

Dolls is a lot more likely than Fright Night II, but having said that, SF has done the most amazing things over the years.
Also with Fox besides the Fly II there is Piranha II the Spawning. This has been a year for animals vs humans (via Scorpion Releasing) so why not have SF give them a try .
Empire of the Ants / Food of the Gods to me seems possible. I think Invaders from Mars would be a great fit for SF

Cellar Dweller and the Lamp would be very super cool but I doubt it.

How about Burn Witch Burn or the Quatermass Experiment ?? SF can get these films - Both are outstanding black and white classics

Piranha 2 isn't Fox. It's with Sony.

Maximum Overdrive would be a great addition. The question is, could Scream Factory possibly get the original uncut version that I believe only Stephen King himself owns? Supposedly there is a totally uncut version and he is the sole owner of said version.

If you preorder directly from shout's website, how close to street date do you usually recieve the film?

My bad... I could have sworn it was Fox...since its with Sony it will just collect dust I suppose,...
Id like to see Devil Fish aka Monster Shark since they acquired it for an MST3K volume, why not the uncut version for a first time USA release

[jthefrank]

As long as we get Dolls or Scarecrows I'll be happy. Or, *fingers crossed* Vampire's Kiss

Hell, I'm already falling behind on current titles, so they need to slow it down

[kngtmat]

I have been waiting for Maximum Overdrive like I was for Christine & a Cat's Eye BD. But Warner has Cat's Eye which also has a Prolog footage taken out but because the people in the early screenings is why it was taken out.


It would be nice to get the other music AC/DC made for the film released that wasn't in the Who Made Who album. Even as a bonus CD to the BD.

Pretty much right on the money. And I want to say I got The Howling and Lifeforce a week ahead of time too.

+1 for Scarecrows. The best killer scarecrow flick after Dark Night of the Scarecrow.

[Catastrophe]

Deranged, Dolls, Monkey Shines, Scarecrows, Bubba Ho-Tep, Invaders from Mars.

Deranged is the last of my personal Unholy Three. We've already got Motel Hell and Squirm on the way and I'm positive that we will see Deranged at some point. Dolls seems to be a bit muddled as has been stated before but I still want it. Monkey Shines is underrated Romero and needs a decent release. Scarecrows, I've never actually seen but have always wanted to. And Bubba Ho-Tep, I've watched the old MGM DVD countless times; LOVE this movie and it definitely needs a blu release. Invaders from Mars, let's get some more Hooper up in this place!

There's a German disc of Invaders from Mars (with a DVD copy of the original included) coming in September, for those who are region-free.

It's easy to mistake, being that (1) most of Cameron's films are Fox and (2) it has a huge Avatar ad on the DVD.

[The Great Owl]

I grabbed Deadly Eyes at Movies Stop today for $19.99. The cover art is quite fun, and I think that the disc will be the same.

James Herbert's The Rats was one of my favorite books during my childhood, and I must have read the book about 20 times. I had a paperback edition with the movie art from Deadly Eyes on the cover, and the paperback had some stills from the film in the middle section.
(Yes, I know. I was a strange kid.)

I used to think that movie was about Nabisco snack foods

[donidarko]

Hoping the new announcements will include....

The Little Girl who Lives Down the Lane
Vampire's Kiss
Miracle Mile
Food of the Gods/Empire of the Ants double bill

...Phantasm would be a miracle!!

- Frogs
- Dolls
- The Little Girl Who Lived Down the Lane
- Who Slew Auntie Roo?
- Indvaders From Mars
- Troll / Troll 2 / Contamination .7 (the latter in SD?)
- Ghoulies / Ghoulies 2
- Food of the Gods set

And soooo many that I couldn't bear to type.

If they nab Needful Things, they need to include the TNT version. The theatrical cut is woeful, but I'd buy the disc if it had the extended version.

[NoirFan]

I'm guessing any extended cut of Needful Things would be an SD extra, as the version broadcast on MGMHD was the theatrical cut.

So anybody else extremely disappointed that Shout/Scream Factory didn't land Krull, and Mill Creek is releasing it!

Man, I could only imagine the ridiculously awesome commissioned artwork that would've accompanied a Shout release.

Surprised that they didn't get it, given the amount of requests it's had by the fans. Thought it would've been high on their wishlist, guess not.
