Will we be hearing about more than one film again? Thanks in advance!

Preach!

I have to say, it's a complete 180 from how I feel about Twilight Time. You can really see the dedication and effort Scream Factory is putting forth to make these titles really stand-out, much like Anchor Bay did from 2000-2004. Twilight Time releases as far as I know, have never been anything to write home about. Virtually lazy ports, no new extras, and transfers that they probably did very little work to.

SF on the other hand will do what they can for the extras, work on the AQ/VQ, and give us a package that we want to buy. For normally 10 bucks cheaper!

Halloween 2/3, They Live, The Funhouse, Terror Train, Phantasm II, and now Terror Vision/The Nest are all titles I'm looking forward to a TON.

One thing I really love is those reversible covers. I love it when Arrow UK does them, and I love the Halloween 2/3 ones. I really wish they would have promoted that more. That artwork is classic!

I think people are fishing for hints on what has been picked....

Adventures of the America Rabbit is a great film, I second this and am glad to see I'm not the only one who was stuck on this as a kid.

Forget Night of the Living Dead - anybody wanna start a countdown clock that tells us how much time is left until the next announcement?

revoloution · 09-16-2012, 09:32 AM

now it might be impossible but do you think you guys can get hold of Michael Mann's 'The Keep'?

SilentNight · 09-16-2012, 03:35 PM

I would crap my pants if the announcement would be the original Silent Night, Deadly Night and the hilarious sequel. I'm 99.99% sure it won't be that though so my pants are safe. Both of those titles would be soooooo great to have tons of special features and making of stuff. One can only wish....

Anchor Bay still holds the rights for that one... so it's not happening.

The Blob 88!
That's what I like to call wishful thinking people!

Anyone know when the shout factory site will be back up. It's been a couple days now

I would die a very happy man if The Blob was released on blu-ray!

According to the Facebook page it's going to be ready by Tuesday.

Sony has the rights... so I highly doubt it.

But with the remake coming (next year?), AB will likely release it.

Don't know why you'd say that since Sony has a deal with Shout!. Less it's only for TV shows in which case Twilight Time could be an appropriate substitute for The Blob remake.

See this quote from Cliff from a few weeks ago.

Awesome news about TerrorVision!

I'm really hoping for an amazing slipcover with this

Since the deal also includes some non-horror titles I assume this means those would be released under the Shout! Factory label?

I guess everyone can't help but post the movies they are hoping for... so I might as well too!

My #1 most wanted Scream Factory MGM release: Night of the Comet (my possibility meter ranks this title release: Likely)

I'd also instantly purchase any of these MGM movies on Blu-Ray:

Modern Girls (my possibility meter ranks this title release: Unlikely )

Ninja III: The Domination (my possibility meter ranks this title release: Perhaps)

Teen Witch (my possibility meter ranks this title release: Perhaps)

Electric Dreams (my possibility meter ranks this title release: Perhaps)

Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II (my possibility meter ranks this title release: Perhaps)

As a side note, this may have already been asked, but is there any chance of Not of This Earth '88 ever making it to Blu-Ray? Or is the Corman line done as far as Blu-Ray is concerned? Even considering the low budget origins and possibly poor condition source elements I'd love it in HD, warts and all (assuming the DVD sold well enough... but I only know of the 4 copies I bought, 3 gifts plus one to keep of course!)
