Night Visitor (1989)
Edge Of Sanity (Anthony Perkins)
Prom Night II
The House Where Evil Dwells
The Babysitter (1981)
Raw Meat
Sometimes They Come Back
Solarbabies

After Midnight would be nice.

I might be wrong but, I don't seem to recall Scream ever mentioning anything about elements issues but simply just a later date than they originally had in mind.

I came here to ask about JB and at least two members confirmed me elements issues. Maybe they didn't update Amazon on this or the problem was solved.

Raw Meat is with Kino.
Breeders is with Olive.

I believe that during the latest KillerPOV podcast they stated that Prom Night II is with another label.

I'm wondering now if Synapse might have Prom Night 2.

Don/Synapse said they did not awhile back, apparently MGM no longer has Prom Night II

Sometimes they Come Back is with Olive also..

The Species sequels would be right up the alley of Shout Factory. I hope they licensed those.
Im a fan of the Curse 1/2 films, so my fingers and toes are crossed for those as well

I asked them about it on Thursday and they said they were having element issues. Amazon probably hasn't been updated.

Kino just announced the Dr. Goldfoot films.

So what Vincent Price titles are left now for Scream Factory to scrape together a *possible* Vincent Prince Collection III?

I posted this in the Kino thread but it's probably best to discuss it here.

Master of the World
Tower of London
Diary of a Madman
Cry of the Banshee
Theater of Blood
An Evening With Edgar Allen Poe

According to GetHarryPalmer Theater is with Twilight Time and the rest are with Shout. We'll have to wait and see, though it wouldn't surprise me if Shout announced a third box or a couple of double features this month ('An Evening...' is more of an extra really). If it is a third collection, it should be a bit cheaper than previous sets, requiring no more than 3 discs, unless, of course, they're adding The Bat or something from Sony.

it's really amazing to think that in such a relatively short period of time, we're now down to this very short list....

This is far from an appealing set of movies. Apart from The Tingler, which just needs a stand alone release, and Twighlight Times Scream and Scream Again, I'm done with old Vinnie.

I really don't see a boxed set with this list of titles unless, as the previous poster suggested, they get some Columbia titles....

Scream could release some of Vincent Price's rare appearances like the 1975 made for TV Special "Alice Cooper: The Nightmare"

[Catastrophe]

Oh well. If we don't get a third collection, we'll still have the first two.

Well, IIRC the rights to Prom Night II (as well as III and IV) reverted back to whoever owns the SimCom film now, just like Curtains and Prom Night did.

So I'd say Synapse is a very strong possibility since they've obviously worked with them already.

Prom Night III and IV are still with LG.

Nope.

Echo Bridge (presumably through Alliance?) seems to have the rights to the entire franchise now; again, excluding the remake. The fact that they also hold the rights to Curtains seems to indicate that they have a connection to the SimCom library in some capacity, if not outright owning it.

Huh. I'd take all 3 sequels if Synapse released 'em on BD.

It's under international. That may mean LG still has US rights.

Those listings aren't specific to home video. As far as I'm aware, Anchor Bay still has US home video rights to Hatchet, for example. These listings appear to be related to Echo Bride's 2008 acquisition of Alliance Atlantis International Distribution. That transaction appears to have included worldwide (except Canada) multiplatform distribution rights to many titles, but certain rights to certain films are seemingly already licensed out or otherwise unavailable.

Their Horror / Sci-Fi holdings don't seem particularly impressive, considering the amount of content they supposedly have.

Nightman popped out to me. Is that the one with the Manimal crossover? Or is it the Nightman who "has the eyes of a cat and does karate across the stage"?
