Looks like King Kong (1976) 4K coming from Paramount, instead of SF

In that case I guess this only leaves Pet Sematary 2 and April Fool's Day as the remaining Paramount-licenced CEs likely to receive a 4K upgrade from SF (I'm presuming they won't bother with Event Horizon and Escape from L.A., least not for a couple of years anyway). Cursed is also possible, but they were doing regular 4Ks by that point, so it might be that they're content to leave that one on Blu.

These extra copies will be available for purchase once the inventory arrives at our warehouse. We’re currently expecting these to arrive in the next 2-3 weeks, and we’ll send out an update as soon as they do.

(For those who were fast enough to order from the original allotment, those orders have already begun shipping.)"

They should be sued for shady tactics, making everyone believe an item is more limited than it actually is.

A Simple Plan and Narc?

I wish Shout (or another boutique label) would release the 126 min. (full cut) of Wolfgang Petersen's "POSEIDON" (2006). Prior to its theatrical release it was hacked down to 98 mins. The 28,+/- mins of deleted footage has never been released or seen (other than the test audience). When it was due to be released on HD-DVD, there were rumors the full cut would be included via seamless branching, but unfortunately only the theatrical cut was released.

I really enjoyed Shout's "Irwin Allen: Master of Disaster Collection", so it would be nice if they could release another collection of the disaster films (possibly on 4K UHD) not under Disney's control. ("Dante's Peak", "Daylight", "Twister", "Airport", "Airport 1975", "Airport '77", "The Concorde: Airport '79", "Earthquake").

Where did Shout say they're pressing another 900 of Unlawful Entry? Social media?

Was he referring to Arrow or Scream though? I'm a bit confused.

Just got Funeral Home in the mail yesterday, I was a bit concerned when I popped it in my Blu-Ray Drive on my PC it was digitally labeled "Ninja III: The Domination" but luckily the correct film is on the disc. I can also confirm the title screen says "Cries in the Night" and not "Funeral Home"

Here are a couple Screen captures:

Good for people who want get a hold of a copy. Not a movie I'm interested in, but always glad to see stuff like this proving physical media isn't dying & more & more want to get ahold of discs.

I'm very happy Scream Factory released Funeral Home on Blu-Ray and all the extras are great however I have 1 small complaint, on the Blu-ray cover it says the "Theatrical Trailer" is included but that's not really a true statement, there is a full length trailer included but it looks like it was lifted from a very poor VHS copy and is in 1:33:1 aspect ratio, most likely it was on the front of another VHS release around the same time Funeral Home was to be released on VHS. To me "Theatrical Trailer" means they used a 35mm film trailer that was actually used in the theater and the transfer is the best possible version.

I know it's a bit picky but I love watching Theatrical Trailers of horror films from the 70's and 80's and what they provided isn't even watchable it's so dark and poor quality.
