Hopefully a lot more new to Blu-Ray titles like Out of the Dark, the Shark Attack movies, the Octopus movies, the two Crocodile movies, and more Dolph Lundgren new to Blu-Ray titles. As well as, possibly Extreme Justice, Blankman, Heartburn, The Mack, and others.

Since Herzog's Nosferatu is getting a 4K release, is there any possibility of Dracula (1979) getting a 4K release as well?

We never alter or remove credits on titles. If he can provide a clear example of what he's referring to, we'll be happy to look into it.

That's not the point. He wrote that they didn't even ask him. I am no insider, just an everyday movie collector but even I know about sleepawaycampfilms. Not asking them about material or newly found stuff for new releases is just lazy.

I find it weird that SF hasn’t released some of their “originals”. I’d buy these super quick:


Last Straw
The Wasp
Magpie
Drugstore June

From the YouTube uploads of the Sleepaway Camp 2 & 3 making ofs from the Scream Factory Blu-rays.





John Klyza was credited here. He’s mentioned they removed his credits for the 4Ks. We need someone ready to go with screenshots of the credits from the 4K discs so we can know for sure that he was uncredited. I read the message wrong at first and someone cleared it up for me.

People on YouTube already freaking out over this Sleepaway Camp controversy... without even knowing full facts, they jump and make a video for clicks. No one even knows the full story, but hey that's the internet for you.

People in the comments section of some of these YouTube videos are hoping that Scream Factory shuts down. Man some of these fans are sick man. Hoping for a label that was a pioneer in the blu ray horror game to fail is pathetic imo.

I know exactly who you’re talking about too. Same fella made a YouTube video about the Elm Street 4K Placeholder art presenting it as if that was the official art even though it says “art pending” in French.

My thoughts on the Sleepaway Camp Credits situation:
John’s wording implies that he visually saw that he wasn’t credited rather than someone close to him telling him that he wasn’t credited. If he has access to screener discs, he should post images showing that they removed his credits.

That would put the whole situation to bed.

Many people have no clue what they're talking about, but just jump on the bandwagon. It would be one thing if people would research and have an informed opinion, but most do not; I see it all the time.

Ooooooh...so sorry.

The bonus round was "2002 Stephen King Jachai Favorite that did not feature Drew Barrymore" for $500.

4k or it doesn't count.

@ShoutFactoryOfficial if you do a new WB deal I would buy all 3 Austin Powers movies and all 3 Rush Hour movies on 4K day one. They would make great additions to the Shout Select line.
