It's a $14 DVD Walmart exclusive, apparently. I'll post the cover.

This is coming out in Australia in December, HD blu ray premiere.

You can understand my confusion, as it has no picture and a generic title. I would love one with Death Race 2000 & Deathsport/Battletruck.

Why? Death Race 2000 (like Humanoids and Piranha) is already on BD, and will likely be compressed to hell on one (?) DVD. Ditto the four titles already released on double-feature discs, which would also invariably look far worse squeezed onto one disc. I'm guessing the extras have been dropped as well?

Well, for Piranha and Up from the Depths, they are things I didn't particularly like a lot, and therefore don't need on BD. As for Battletruck/Deathsport, those would be blind buys (something I don't do with BD), and if there s something I already like included, it gives me more incentive to buy.

Glad I picked it up when it came out then.

Wow, out of the blue my mom texts me, asking if I want the W. Herzog collection on BD for my birthday, which was pretty random. Nosferatu just happens to be the only Scream title I don't have too. Talking about it all coming together for me

NoirFan · 08-23-2014, 02:09 PM

Thanks for the link, but according to the wording of the article the Roommates/Woman for All Men release will be DVD-only. Also, I hadn't been familiar with either one, but they look to be straight-forward sexploitation, which makes them a curious choice for a traditionally horror label like Gorgon.

Almost every movie out there is better than Plan 9. The real question is whether Food of the Gods II is as popular as Plan 9? The answer is: Not by a mile. Plan 9 is being famously known as "the worst film of all time" which, ironically, helped him to gain popularity and large cult following among the cinephiles. Plus, it's not fair comparison since it was released on blu-ray by a different company. Different company - different policies, priorities etc.

Heh, sounds like the perfect birthday gift for you

And Plan 9 isnt the worst film of all time.. now its just a moniker. Mesa of Lost Women and Manos are IMO, way worse.

i really enjoy plan 9, so i have never liked the "worst film of all time" plug. crap, twilight is worse by a metric tonne. i have watched plan 9 MANY of times, and was glad to finally retire the DVD for the Blu-Ray

i originally saw Plan 9 on VHS when i rented it from hastings in the summer of 2000. there was a band i was really into, and they wrote a song about the movie, so i checked it out just because of that. i knew nothing of its history or reputation, so i was able to appreciate it for what it was, without opinion or conjecture influencing me. i still like to stick it in every now and then, because it is just a fun romp

One modern title I would love to see Scream release is Dead Silence. Great movie and James Wan's name makes it marketable. I'm really shocked it still doesn't have a bluray release. I can see the amazing artwork now.

Even though it was a good movie, I'm guessing Universal never released it on blu because it bombed at the box office. I would buy it for sure if Scream released a CE.

Wan's Death Sentence is also MIA on blu in the US.

Goldensuitcase · 08-24-2014, 05:15 PM

I saw a movie that SCREAMS well...Scream type movie. FIRST WARNING. Has this been mentioned on here before?

I can't seem to find any info about that film. Do you have any more information about it? Does it have any alternate titles?

Donl1282 · 08-24-2014, 05:46 PM

It would be epic if SF releases Urban Legends Final Cut and Bloody Mary on blu-ray.

I was thinking maybe Warning Sign, which is a Fox title so is a realistic candidate should Scream go for another deal with Fox.

Yeah but you would think they would try and capitalize on the fact that his last three films (all very similar to Dead Silence) were huge hits.
