I know, hope there is more, it seems like Vinegar Syndrome is releasing less and less horror too. Very lackluster lineup from them recently imo. Seems like most of the good stuff has been released already.

In for Poltergeist II as I missed the previous blu-ray CE and kicked myself over it once it went OOP. Hopefully we can get Poltergeist III as well, I'm one of the crazy people who prefers it to the second one lol

Bill and Ted Boxset, The Last Unicorn one of my favorite animated films of all time, The Delta Force which I now own on Blu-Ray, and DVD, and Death to Smoochy which I hear is one of Robin Williams most underrated films of all time

If Scream Factory, Synapse, Vinegar Syndrome, Code Red, Kino, Arrow etc didn't release these, literally no one would. These mainstream labels don't care whatsoever about Fangoria fans and the movies we love. And all of those other boutique labels have their own issues btw. Anyway just my two cents

If only Scream would work on getting people the product they buy in better condition. I know it isn't just them, but jeez. I just need to stay away from ordering off their site.its easier to return items to Amazon.

Oh well, that's that. I've complained enough.

It should be. I believe the old release was from an existing transfer as there was no mention otherwise. This new release states the folllowing:

NEW 4K Transfer Of The 35mm Interpositive

Add me to that short list. Always preferred part 3.

Death to Smoochy was the perfect antidote for those of us sick of watching Robin Williams play schmaltz like Mrs. Doubfire and Patch Adams. So naturally it wasn’t very popular - I can’t wait to get it!

[mfan1986]

Does SF have rights to ‘Over the Top (1987)’ with Stallone? This would be amazing 4K UHD if they could do it. A bunch of new interviews and a new 4K scan.

[Nailwraps]

Over the Top is owned by Warner...who have a deal with Shout!...

Wonder what the new slip art for Poltergeist 2 will be. I have their blus of 2+3 but bought them when they were going OOP and didn't get a slip for 2. Recall 2 with slip especially was being scalped after it went off the SF site. Basically worthless now.
Update: I see there's no new art and they're just using Theatrical art. Always thought that art was bland. If I had the old slip I'd keep it and put it over the 4k.

Ditto.

Got my package yesterday from the 4K sale.

Everything came w/ slip except for Rollerball. All in good condition.

[DukeTogo84]

Just placed an order for Death to Smoochy, The Last Unicorn, and Fear City which I didn't order earlier as needed more films to get that free shipping. Last Unicorn is one I've never watched, but have heard nothing but great things about.

Rollerball didn't come with a slip (only saying in case you didn't know and thought you missed out).

Nah I didn't even look to see if they came with slips when I bought them, so I was pleasantly surprised that most of them did. Had no expectations.

I love Mrs. Doubtfire, but not a lot of what else he was in within the handful of years that followed it. Patch Adams....Jack...Flubber. That crap.
