Raptor is on the list, but the Carnosaur films are not. One of the VS people looked around for them a few years ago and said Charles Band had the rights.

Interesting I wonder if Arrow Video might put them out considering they've done Charles Band films in the past, or heck Full Moon might put them out themselves.

I feel that there's some conflicting factor if Band does have the rights. Inaccess to original film elements, too costly to restore, maybe asking too high of a price to license out, etc. The films have been unavailable since the DVDs went out of print, if Band did have them you'd think he would have them streaming somewhere at least. So I don't know. I wish something would work out.
Bananaman said he was going to release Carnosaur 2 like a year or two before he passed, but I don't know where that was coming from.

Hi, Shout!
Does the Thinner C.E. come with a slipcover if I order it from your website? I see the pic not having it. Just wanted to confirm. I have got some other titles to order along with it.

Literally one page back...

This is all a long way to say: After three months, no guarantees one way or the other.

I do like lists, as someone with Aspergers, ADHD and OCD, i like making lists and such. I started the Wishlist poll because of a certain post from Scream Factory on facebook, they made a poll of said what was the most requested title, I wanted it to be bigger and accurate to the fans, most of the movies listed are ones that people here and on Facebook (when they still have a page comments section) would ask for.

I Always hope for someone to help me make the list more functional, streamlined and help me with adding all the titles people asked for, plus doing it for several other labels as well. I'm always thinking big, hence why I still do this from time to time.

But it's not without problems, like people saying "Why include that, Shout will never get the rights to that", "There is already a Great release from [insert label here] why include it?" and so much more, but I always say "It's a wishlist it's meant to be a list of titles we wish to see" to "I didn't know I'm sorry I'll get rid of that title," and sometimes when I see that title requested more after the removal I wonder "Was the release really good or not? Why do they keep requesting it, if it got a great release?"

It's hard to do something and not get much recognition for the work, But I do it, because I like it and sometimes it makes me happy when I see people using the polls to vote and maybe discuss it, I love seeing what is the most requested title people want Scream to release.

I wanted to show all the titles that were on the list because I wanted to show everyone that your wishes were being kept safe and that like the future is ever growing and shrinking, over 1200 titles were removed from the main list because they have been released and 441 of those were released by Scream and Shout Factory.

Sorry for this long essay, But I just wanted to say why I do these lists and my reasoning for sharing, Thank you for reading

I apologize in advance for the stupid question, but I can't figure out how to use the 15% off credit I got for making +100$ purchase? There's no code in my email and I can't seem to find it on the site anywhere?

@ShoutFactoryOfficial

Does the "[This many] Units left in stock" Mean thats all thats left or all before more are ordered in, Like ordering more of the movie to be in stock at your place

[Resident Evil Labs]

Question for Scream Factory/Shout Factory:
When does Night Of The Creeps 4K come out of at all? And any plans for Night Of The Demons remake to get a new Blu ray or 4K? Thank you

[deadheadbill]

Told myself I was saving my funds for the Criterion flash sale....Then I spent 200 bucks on Shocktober lol.

Why does the streaming service advertise a Ike Boys Blu-ray that does not exist? not really sure; I can ask the streaming department

Wish you guys could get Death Sentence with Kevin Bacon. I'd even take a blu.

@shoutfactoryofficial

heard Shout Factory didn't renew the rights to Sleepaway Camp 2 and 3... plzzz tell me the chances of you guys getting the rights for 4k releases of themm... we neeed thiss

[Donl1282]

With Sleepaway Camp 2 and 3 getting BD reissue by Sandpiper and 4K from SF, is there hope Slumber Party Massacre 3 might be released again? I know they are owned by a different studio. Don’t know which one now and if they are open to licensing.

[Nighthawk71]

I would LOVE to see the first two Deathstalker movies get reissues or 4K as well.

@shoutfactoryofficial

1.) The 1960s Italian sci-fi film, Planets Against Us (1962), has been streaming on Shout TV for a few years now. Does Shout only have streaming rights to it or do they have the option for a physical release, as well?

2.) Apart from the recent re-issue of Attack of the Crab Monsters, is the door closed on further website-exclusive, limited edition Scream Factory releases of pre-1970s titles like Not of This Earth (1957), Planets Against Us (1962), War of the Satellites (1958), Blood of Dracula (1957), The Undead (1957), etc?

3.) Is there more from Shaw Brothers in the pipeline or likely to be licensed? Several labels are releasing Shaw titles on Blu-ray these days, but several fun, key titles are still MIA in North America, such as Infra-Man, The Battle Wizard, The Oily Maniac, Black Magic, Black Magic 2, The Deadly Angels, Finger of Doom, the four 1960s "Monkey King" films (Monkey Goes West, Princess Iron Fan, Cave of the Silken Web, The Land of Many Perfumes), etc.

4.) Will we ever see a "complete series" collection of The Aquabats! Super Show! on DVD and/or Blu-ray from Shout? All three seasons have streamed on Shout TV for years, but only the first season got a DVD release from Shout, while the second season (plus three specials that constitute a third season) apparently got an independent release in 2017, but must be out of print, since it's scarce, even on ebay.

The Faculty 4K finally up for pre-order at Amazon

I assume this 70s haunted house gem is going OOP, and since it's Fox, maybe your last chance to get it:



Script by Richard Matheson, with the always excellent Roddy McDowall, also Pamela Franklin, Gayle Hunnicutt, and Peter Bowles has a small role.

[heebiejeebie]

Going a little deeper in the Corman catalog but I'd love to see Deathstalker 3 & 4 get released. I believe there were rights issues though.
