Collection is incredibly worth it, and makes for a great night in with a bottle of something strong. Reminds me of the glory days of USA Up All Night

Oh, and, Cliff, while we have you here. Is there a limited time only disclaimer (i.e. the Disney Vault) on any of these titles? I can't afford to buy in bulk right now unfortunately, but do want to pick up plenty of these titles throughout the next year or two.

Cliff mentioned the other day that we have about five years before we have to worry about any of the titles going OOP. Hope that helps!

You hit the nail on the head! That's exactly what makes these collections so much fun, they bring you back to a time when you could turn on the TV on a late Friday night and see things like Monster-Vision or USA Up All Night playing the wildest, craziest films till the break of dawn. Those days are long behind us but these collections certainly help re-ignite the flame to those great memories

Agreed. Occasionally Netflix streaming will run some cultish fun movies like these, or my roku will have some "classic" sci/fi or horror akin to these. But, the days od USA Up All Night or Monstervision with Grandpa Munster are sadly behind us. Thanks for the heads up about the 5 year OOP annoucement :-) I love this community.

I miss those days...well nights really.

Anyone remember Blood Beach? I don't think it ever got a DVD release, haven't seen it since I was a kid.

"Blood Beach" is a highly recommended title that has never seen a legit DVD or Blu-ray release in the US. I believe Germany may have just seen a release. Hopefully, Shout can make another miracle happen by giving us this film at some point too.

I know it's a pretty bad movie, but I would be tempted to buy it out of nostalgia.

But, Shout is really giving you some real quality and effort in releases like this. I hope more people give them a shot because there definitely worth the time.

I'd take Mill Creek over Echo any day but Shout is really going above and beyond imo. I can't wait to see some of the stuff they do in the future.

I wish they would do this movie.

There was a poll taken on Facebook recently where they listed a few titles that people were apparently clamouring for. They said that this was in no way trying to insinuate that they had these titles on the possible release block, but, they asked us to vote on which we'd like to see the most. One of these was Blood Beach

how about some evil speak?

You've knocked down a lot of titles lately, but none have hurt as bad as this.
"Prom Night II" and "Motel Hell" were THE 2 movies that I hope you guys had the most...

Is there any chance that you'll be working with MGM again, and maybe pick these up among others?

I always wanted to see this! because of the poster! John Saxon and Burt Young are just icing on this stale cake.

Burt Young must be the grubbiest-looking actor in the history of film. He's got the homeless dirtbag shtick down to a fine art.

I will say we don't have the caliber of great character actors like we did years ago.

Would love to see them come out with this movie...cheesy romp all over the place!
