There is a listing and it looks like all the info is current. I imagine it'll go live within the next few weeks or so.

Hey zbinks, Class of 1984 is April 14th, not the 21st.

Unrelated: someone asked about Poltergeist II/III on Facebook and Scream they tried but couldn't get the rights to them.

That's too bad... but the good news then is that that's almost a confirmation that we'll see some form of box set or triple feature this fall when the new film is released. I'm glad this was brought up as I still look for part 2 every now and then. Now I know to wait until Fall at least.

For any Canadians who haven't been able to get a hold of Ginger Snaps yet, its currently $24.xx on amazon.ca, cheapest ive seen it for so far (for Canadians anyway)...weird that we cant get it direct from Shout but we can get it through amazon.ca...

Being a Canadian film it looks like they could only get the rights to release this in America hence the higher price tag.

yeah, i remember hearing that it had to do with the rights...funny, cant release a Canadian film in Canada, oh well im just really happy i finally got it at a good price .

[Terrorfirmer]

since ive seen a few more "wishlist" posts, id just like to say that i'm really really really hoping Scream announces Blood Games. its just as good if not better than, for lack of a better phrase, "bottom of the barrel" titles announced (im not saying i completely agree with the term but it has been used quite often in relation to Screams 2015 announcements so far) anyways, i freakin LOVE Blood Games, excellent movie, and i hope Scream releases it

Yeah, this is a great film, largely forgotten now. It'd be perfect for a boutique release but I'm pessimistic about Lionsgate releasing it. Though there is an HD version of it out there somewhere.

It was down to $22 over last weekend and the beginning of this week. Unfortunately I had already bought it at $29 still worth it! Great movie.

Does anyone thing Psycho (1998) and Psycho IV would make a great double feature?

Scream has said *NO* to Psycho IV a million times and theyve shot down Poltergeist 2 and 3 plenty of times as well. That wont stop people who cant read previous Facebook posts from asking again

Saying no is clearly different than...

Scream has no interest currently in releasing tv projects (Psycho IV) but considering they haven't been the most of up front about whether they have any new licensing deals or not, they are very quickly going to run out of viable material to release and thus previously denied projects suddenly might become options.

There have plenty of examples of people asking, and asking, and asking again for a project that was repeatedly shot down only for it to later materialize as a release. At this time there is no interest in Psycho IV or the other sequels/spin-offs/re-imaginings/etc. But that doesn't men people should stop asking for them.

That's a shame, plenty of good horror TV options. I'm still waiting for any sort of release of Mr. Boogedy and Bride of Boogedy (although it's under the Disney banner, so that pretty much puts it in the impossible pile). I always thought Nightmare on the 13th Floor was also a decent TV horror flick, good ol' USA Networks of yesteryear.

Exactly, Howling 2 says hi. People continuing to ask show them there is interest, and might make them reconsider. With the stuff they have have been releasing lately, I don't see Psycho IV being beneath them.

TV horror is a goldmine. There are so many great movies that never even got a VHS release. Scream released a DVD two pack with two okay films, it didn't sell well, so they gave up on releasing more. They should release two great TV films on Blu, and then judge sales from that release. Again, with what they have been releasing lately, I don't see how anything could be beneath them. And I'm not saying that in a negative way, I love all this schlock that they have been spewing out!

Yeah but Howling II is with MGM and that's the main / primary company they are sublicensing from. Scream could get the other Howling titles with MGM if they wanted them assuming they are being offered.

Psycho IV is not with MGM. There doesnt seem to be anything on the table with Universal at the moment.. but in the event that things change, maybe it would be possible. Nobody knows until they announce something from another studio.
