Well this is very interesting. Over on the Hammer Horror on Blu-ray Facebook group, someone commented 'Curse (of Frankenstein) will be coming from Warner Archive I'm guessing', to which George Reis responded:

He's previously said that a few Warner Hammer titles are with Scream Factory, and has already said that Crescendo is coming but not from Warner Archive. Now it seems that we can expect Curse of Frankenstein from Scream also. What this means regarding the transfer (especially in the wake of Warner Archive's release of Dracula) is anyone's guess. I imagine Scream must have tried to get Dracula from Warner also (and who knows, they may still at some point), not entirely sure why Warner didn't just let them have both given what has transpired.

On the subject of Frankenstein, it seems quite probable that Scream also have The Horror of Frankenstein from their deal with StudioCanal, as well as Frankenstein Created Woman from the Hammer deal.

Well we were talking about Scream Factory...

A few things:

- The Terminator is very likely coming from Scream at some point (either them or Criterion)
- The Heavenly Kid is coming from Scorpion
- Iceman is coming from Kino

jshaide · 02-01-2019, 06:09 PM

I've def. hoping for more 30s or 40s Universal from them in May on the heels of that Bela and Boris set. ****!

**MORE TITLES COMING THIS SUMMER!**
Our love for Hammer Films this year continues as we announce today that we are prepping QUATERMASS II and QUATERMASS AND THE PIT for Blu-ray releases on May 14th!
QUATERMASS II (1957): The sequel to The Quatermass Xperiment! Professor Quatermass (Brian Donlevy) is Britain's most clever scientist. Investigating a series of bizarre incidents that have been reported from a deserted area, he finds a group of soldiers and government officials that appear to be controlled by aliens from another world. When a close friend is brutally murdered by these beings, Quatermass leads a mob of local workers to a showdown with the extraterrestrials. The film was retitled Enemy from Space for its U.S. theatrical release.
QUATERMASS AND THE PIT (1967): Hobbs End, Knightsbridge, London. While working on a new subway tunnel for the London Underground, a group of construction workers uncover a strangely shaped skull. Nearby, another discovery: a large, mysterious and impenetrable metal object. Initially mistaken for an unexploded bomb, the object and its strange power turn out to be far more horrific than anybody could have possibly imagined. Is it of this earth? Could it be the ancestral link to mankind's evolution? Or could it be an ancient link to the unleashing of the ultimate evil? There's only one man capable of unravelling the clues, and his name is Professor Bernard Quatermass (Andrew Keir), a man of science who thrives on the dark mysteries of the world. Written by legendary screenwriter Nigel Kneale, Quatermass And The Pit is a seminal British sci-fi classic. For its U.S. release by 20th Century Fox, the film was retitled Five Million Years to Earth.
Extras and specs are in progress and will be announced on a later date.

or could see Arrow doing The Terminator, since they are doing Robocop.

I think Arrow was taken off the table as a TERMINATOR label somewhere along the line. I think the last I noticed, it was between Scream and Criterion with many kind of (safely I think) assuming that its a Scream/Shout release.

It's definitely not with Arrow, at least not in the US. It's with a label though (not Kino), which means either Shout or Criterion (most likely the former).

I'd love a new edition of Eraser and I'll add Executive Decision, On Deadly Ground and Fire Down Below as contenders for upgrades.

BarnDoor · 02-01-2019, 07:39 PM

I'd much prefer Hard Target to get the Arrow treatment - it's probably the only chance we have of getting the 'workprint cut' in better quality. Had Shout got Waterworld, something tells me they wouldn't have gone to anywhere near the same lengths.

I wish Arrow would get everything to be perfectly honestly.

Not a fan of On Deadly Ground but I'd buy the other three. However, Executive Decision would have to be the original US theatrical version, not the censored international version that was used for the current Blu-ray.

Jay Mammoth · 02-01-2019, 08:57 PM

I’d prefer Scream get everything. Correct aspect ratios for the win.
