The one Horror film besides Prom Night I believe could benefit from Shout! Factory is Creepshow.

CreepShow is with Warner, so its as good as Prom Night or Curtains.
At least Warner has the distinction of actually being able to say 'no'...

I'd like to see some of those Hammer Flicks, in particular
"The Phantom of the Opera".

Movie-Brat · 01-20-2013, 08:23 AM

There goes that too. The only other film I requested on the Shout! Factory forums was New Year's Evil and, well MGM owns that.

It's not a double dip for me

I've got an idea: Shout Factory should just buy Echo Bridge, that way they'll have access to Prom Night '80 and Curtains. Plus, maybe then we could get gnarly releases of some of those Miramax/Dimension titles (From Dusk till Dawn, The Prophecy, Phantoms, etc).

You know, that is actually an amazing idea. I imagine Shout would do a fantastic job with the catalog titles too

Thanks Cliff. What a bummer! Oh well, maybe something will change in the future.

I for one love the idea of more Hammer Horror Films!!

And "New Years Evil"!

Is there a specific reason that you didn't get it from mgm before?
Or do you have no intrest?

If you're region free, Optimum and Lionsgate have released 9 Hammer BDs in the UK, with at least a dozen more to follow.

Actor and Director Fred J. Lincol has passed away.
He is know best for acting in the original "Last House on the Left", as well as having an extensive pornographic acting and directing career.

I wonder if Lionsgate has any Hammer US rights?

Also would love if your company could get Shout at the Devil with Roger Moore and Lee Marvin.

I am so excited for all of the films you have planned for this upcoming year!

Thanks for all that you do!

-Mark

No other films from Albert.

And I predict we'll be getting a glimpse at "The Town that Dreaded Sundown" cover art this upcoming week! I have a feeling.

and we always get at least one big reveal or announcement regarding special features or artwork a week, and I feel like this will be it.

I know it won't have the new artwork, but that classic poster looks gorgeous.

They are not telling the truth. I even talked to the head of sales before he stopped answering my calls or emails.

I'm not region free, sadly. Scream Factory would do a better job putting them out anyway. Althought the artwork looks fantastic and I've heard they're 3-disc sets. We need more Hammer on BD in the USA!

Speaking of that, I noticed on that big list that Synapse has "Hands of The Ripper" and "Countess Dracula", so are they still on track because I have heard much about them...

[QUOTE=bb8977;7025255]Cliff, I just noticed that you are releasing Cold Prey 2 on April 23rd through Shout Factory. This is an awesome sequel to a classic original, why no big announcement and why is it not a Scream Factory title ?[/QUOTE

I think it should be.

Did he ever even say no? That's really dickish.

I'm not going to argue with you. I've been doing this for almost 30 years. I know who owns what.
Lionsgate had Cujo last. Do you think they got it from Warner? Nope.
Warner had the rights for about 10 years and then they expired.

They might, but I doubt if they'll release any of them, as LG is notorious for sitting on most of their catalog.
