Because a certain group of people want everything from Scream so they have matching slipcovers on the shelf.

Not guess but some of the following titles would be interesting, from anyone:

Brainscan
Sexy Killer (really needs a domestic release)
Strigoi
[Rec] 1-4
Black Roses
Cold Prey (SF should upgrade the DVD)
Grave Encounters 1-2
Blair Witch 2: Book of Shadows
Cast a Deadly Spell

I'm sure you already know, but Rec 1-3 have Region A Canadian releases that are great. Grave Encounters 1 & 2 are both Region Free from the UK (I purchased both finally last month and confirmed that they are in fact region free) plus Grave Encounters 2 already has a US Blu as well. Black Roses is owned currently by Synapse and is a possibility at some point. I asked about it well over a year ago and was told directly that while they had no current plans (in 2013/2014) it was something that they may look into for a future release. I'm hopeful that once the Argento flicks are released that maybe just maybe Synapse will decide to green light this one as it's one of my favorites still lacking a North american release. I wish I would have known about the oversea's versions when they first went on sale as I would have gladly purchased one then. Now however the few copies I can find usually run close to $70, and I can't justify that. I do think that there are several viable properties that have oversea's releases with nothing in the states that you touched on that would do well in the Scream Factory Lineup as a modern offshot.

-Grave Encounters 1 & 2
-Rec 1-4
-Absentia
-The Tunnel (The independent Australian Horror film)
-Pontypool
-The Poughkeepsie Tapes
-Eli Roth's "Clown"
-James Wan's "Demonic"

You know whats really sad is all the requests for Fright Night II and its still with Lionsgate, there isnt anything Shout Factory can do about it either ...I really hope one day LG will lose the rights to it

If you're that into Blu-ray so as to post on a particular label's Facebook page, I really don't understand why you wouldn't think of coming on this site to keep yourself informed of new and upcoming releases.

That is why I avoid Facebook.

And every other horror film they have in their possession. It really is mind blowing to think that back in 2007-2009 I considered Lionsgate amongst the best distributors for Horror content as they consistently were putting out affordable, interesting Horror films. Now, we're lucky to get one solid catalog release from them a year it feels like.

Yep, and From Beyond and People Under the Stairs.

I hope its warlock 1989 http://www.impawards.com/1989/posters/warlock.jpg

[darkness2918]

Im hoping for any/all of these:

Clown (Eli Roth)
Rock N Roll Nightmare
Black Roses
Basket Case 1,2,3
Monster Man
Screamers (1996)
Warlock
Warlock: The Armageddon
976-Evil

[Alfredlynch]

Out of the possible 10, I'd be happy if I just got Nightmares. Apart from any wild card tittles, there isn't much else from the available libraries that I'd buy. Matinee would be cool, but it's a bit outside of the lines.

[Seymour]

I've seen Clown and Demonic listed as wishlist titles in the last day or so (despite Shout specifying that all 10 titles to be announced are from the '70s-'90s), but aren't they both with Dimension (aka TWC)?

I very highly doubt this will be one of the 10 but it would be an instant pickup for me. I remember watching this when it was making its rounds on cable and enjoyed it immensely.

[Camp_Crystal_Lake]

I'm really hoping the SDCC announcements have at least one or two "left-field" announcements. I'm hoping that it's not all MGM or Universal pick-ups. If this is the case, then the announcements will be like watching a baseball game with nothing but routine fly balls, inning after inning. Come on Scream give us at least one "I didn't see that movie coming". Truly hoping for something like Funeral Home, The Prey, or anything else off my list. I know it won't happen, but I can dream. .

Lionsgate has the last three ; I think Synapse had Rock N Roll Nightmare

[Abby is Q]

They did say some obscure movies, so please oh please be The Pit. I love that movie so much.
