Yeah, I mean these two titles are safe bets like the Halloween sequels.

I was just about to buy the Psycho II, III, IV DVD set. Glad I did not. Will wait for the Scream blu's.

[format916]

i cant believe my wish was granted.

[Guydowood]

I wonder if it gets better this fall with the releases of Child's Play 2, 3, Bride & Seed to tie in with the debut of Curse of Chucky

or mistro..... Jaws 2, 3 in 3-D and The Revenge! (with the 7.1 surround of the lion roar at the end of that flick! )

[Rasmith83]

Maybe Scream could do a Birds II/Psycho IV double feature Both were made for TV sequels to Hitchcock films.

Cliff said that Universal has plans for the Chucky films.

[demonknight]

...and the speculation begins:
-Darkman
-Army of Darkness
-The 'burbs
-Matinee
-Demon Knight
-Bordello of Blood
-Cat People
-Ghost Story

[Rocky01542]

Would love a Scream Factory release of Army of Darkness with multiple cuts of the film and bonus features that were absent from the 'Screwhead Edition'.

+1, you're chanting Ray.

I really wish they would release AOD , but as far as MGM titles go other than Without Warning being a big time wish list, Planet of Vampires is the next big one for me that I really,really hope Cliff can get in another MGM deal... I know lots of Bava fans out there .........

[Akubrick1]

Personally, I would love to see Food of the Gods, Frogs, Empire of the Ants, and Squirm. Maybe a "Revenge of Nature" box or some such?!?

[frogmeat69]

I can't keep up, gonna need a 2nd job just to buy Scream Factory blu's. Psycho 2 is awesome news.

Planet of the Vampires/Queen of Blood would make a fantastic double feature of alien vampires since MGM owns them. Without Warning needs the blu-ray treatment badly.

YES those would make quality blu-rays! what about Tales from The Hood (Universal owns it now), Nightmares (Shout can improve over the shitty fullscreen bareboned AB DVD from 2000), Nighthawks, Boy Who Cried Werewolf (Never had a DVD or blu-ray release), The Serpent and The Rainbow, Shocker, Rollercoaster, Sssssss, This Island Earth/Tarantula double feature and Universal owned Hammer films anthology?

***BREAKING NEWS!!***

Norman Bates and "mother" are coming home...to Scream Factory!

1983's PSYCHO II and 1986's PSYCHO III will be released on DVD and Blu-ray this Fall as Collector's Editions. No other details to report at this time so stay tune in the next few months for more developments on these great blood-curdling films.

I can't wait man! the blu-rays should have deleted scenes, commentaries, interviews, retrospectives, poster and still galleries, TV spots, teasers and trailers, radio spots and all that plus quality remastering. For Psycho III's blu-ray please include a bonus disc with Bates Motel 1987 pilot/Psycho IV, that would be nice.

Hey Cliff, consider doing Monkey Shines as that needs a Collector's Edition blu-ray to improve on over the bareboned DVD badly with both new and old art alike with extras like commentary, deleted scenes, featurettes including retrospective and original 1988 behind the scenes one, interviews, trailer/teaser, TV spots and poster and still galleries.


Or how about Steel and Lace and Eve of Destruction double feature on blu-ray/DVD combo? that would be nice. Steel and Lace is one that never had a DVD release before and MGM owns it, remember Steel and Lace? Entertaining sci-fi thriller about a woman who got raped by 5 men and commits suicide as her scientist brother brings her back as a shapeshifting cyborg hellbent on revenge. It's similar to Deadly Friend and I Spit on Your Grave as it has David Naughton from American Werewolf in London with Bruce Davisdon (from the original Willard and X-Men) and David Lander in it, i remembered watching it on HBO when i was 9 and thought it was strange yet entertaining. I mean it makes sense to pair Steel and Lace and eve of Destruction since they are similar movies! For Steel and Lace the extras can be commentary with interview, trailer and still gallery, for Eve it should have commentary, trailer, TV spots, poster and still gallery and interviews.

I believe EVE OF DESTRUCTION is being released from some other company this year.

[dsman71]

I agree that Planet of Vampires and Queen of Blood would make a nice pairing..even though I prefer POV a lot more, Id watch them both, and to have them in HD would be great...right now I might just get the German DVD of POV for the anamorphic transfer.
As for Without Warning - I think this should be a DVD/Blu Ray combo since its not had a single release in the USA in either format...
That would give owners of both formats a chance to own this film. And it would sell twice as well - double the format, double the buyers
As for Empire of the Ants, Frogs, Squirm...the DVD transfers on these are actually really good, so unless its a really considerable upgrade..(id buy them anyway for the latest technology though)
My wishlist outside of horror is At the Earths Core, Angry Red Planet, Reptilicus, Yongary and Konga...however since the DVDs do look good I dont mind holding onto those..
Titles like Planet of Vampires, Theatre of Blood and Without Warning are of high interest because of the lack of a decent transfer or lack of a release at all...
I can see Cliff getting Sssssss, Shocker, Serpent and the Rainbow and other 80s titles, VHS only titles , but I cant see them doing This Island Earth, Tarantula, Deadly Mantis or any of those great B classics...I think Universal themselves will keep dipping into those movies...

Great news about Psycho II & III!

[Momma]

PSYCHO IV premiered on Showtime, same as Body Bags.

So why was it turned down, and the answer given that it was because P4 is a"TV Movie" and they wont be doing TV movies?

I understand that we get some, we dont get some...
But I am a tad curious dearie

We aren't releasing Psycho IV.
Sorry to disappoint you, but I didn't acquire it nor do I ever plan to. There are much better films to go after.
