Scream Factory Blu-ray Discussion Thread

^^I literally finished that DVD set last night. Worth it for the trailer collection alone, but its also packed with interviews and commentaries.

Plus, the double feature DVD of Up From the Depths / Demon of Paradise is gone from their site as well.

I have this but haven't gotten around to it yet. I also have the Up from the Depths/Demon of Paradise Double Feature, watched those and thought they were ok. Nothing amazing.

The uncut Humanoids from the Deep as aired on Showtime is amazing. I believe it was butchered on all of the home releases. It is high on my wishlist.

Yep. These were all Showtime originals.

[MegaWeapon]

Im hoping that some of these titles will come back in one form or another because Shout supposedly has the rights to a lot of the Corman library which I know has been discussed. I've been buying the Corman titles but its hard to keep up with everything I want to get

Oh, for a blu-ray of the original Bedazzled in region 1 .....

Unfortunately, the aspect ratio is incorrect resulting in the image being stretched vertically.

Man, just watched "Scream for Help". My god is that film hilarious, so many unintentional laughs. Just Micheal Winner being Michael Winner. I loved Tom Holland's interview where he says he basically wanted to make a pure suspense film with his script and Winner delivered something totally different; something batshit crazy in the "Death Wish 3" mold.

Two of my favorite moments: One, when the mother trips on the stairs and what looks to be a stunt guy in drag violently tumbles down the stairs. Two, our young heroine Christie Cromwell's line of, "I was just looking to lose my cherry-even to the garbageman."

Really recommended to those who love terrible, entertaining insanity.

Hopefully SF release the Hammer film The Reptile on BD. Watched the trailer earlier & it looks interesting.

Tried to order one of these but good god their site sucks. If I manage to make it through their stupid picture puzzle, it then kicks me back and asks if I'm sure my bank knows my billing address or something. After the third try I quit, guess they don't want my money.

There’s a bad typo on the reversible cover of Man’s Best Friend.
Instead of Protector it says ‘Poretector’

I picked up the Devil's Advocate the other day (I realized, surprisingly, that I didn't own it), and noticed that it's Warner. It wouldn't surprise me to see them announce this at Comic-Con in a CE. Seems like just the kind of title they'd want: a somewhat forgotten, late 90s, cult-ish horror title already with a standard Blu-ray. I like the film, though. It feels a bit dated, but it has its good parts.

The lawsuit maybe an issue in regards to releasing this film again...

I could see that being the case. Still, if it doesn't, the Warner Blu-ray looks very good.
