To avoid marketplace confusion we wanted to let our North American customers know that in addition to all the new titles we're dropping in 2023, we are working on UHD upgrades of many of our more popular catalogue titles like HOUSE ON THE EDGE OF THE PARK, BURIAL GROUND, ZOMBIE HOLOCAUST aka DR. BUTCHER M.D. and more. New 4k scans from negatives, HDR Dolby Vision color correction and additional special features. Announcements will hit when the extensive work is done on the new masters.

If they're doing new transfers and color correction, then please give us 4Ks of THE STRANGE VICE OF MRS. WARDH and ALL THE COLORS OF THE DARK too!

Great news and nice to finally see Severin publicizing it a bit. Of course, Grindhouse and Severin are way behind the 8-ball now, with 88 Films far out ahead on most of these titles, maybe all of these titles and more, beating them to the punch with tons of salable product NOW. Luckily for Severin, some North American buyers won’t want to import the UK discs, and super-fans will likely double-dip if the USA releases meet or exceed the quality of the UK releases. More choices and more releases of these titles are a win for fans and collectors either way.

That'll be $55 and only appear at sales and conventions.

I used to rent this from the grocery store. Those were the days. Pretty sure Dr. Butcher MD somehow had an R rating.

This can’t happen soon enough.

This was expected but Last Cannibal World, Mountain of the Cannibal God and Eaten Alive? Bring it the fook on! Too awesome. 4K has really come full circle now.

I’m drooling. Of course, Anthropophagous still needs to happen. But this is huge progress.

I’d also love to see Grindhouse drop Cannibal Ferox on 4k uhd…..

Grindhouse is now a merch and Drive-In screening company

I just hope they don't do something stupid, like what they did with "Four Flies on Grey Velvet" and release it with all the other titles on Black Friday as an exclusive at their website. It was bad enough back then with price and timing, but now 4 times. Hopefully, they'll be regular releases or one fair priced ($100) set, if the worst does happen.

Oh man this is tough vs the 88 films release. Which to get? The 88 films is about $20 cheaper, but no dr. butcher cut. Given 88's latest work, though, the Zombi Holocaust cut might outperform the Severin in PQ. Some nice extras on severin but I never watch extras, just want best A/V.

Also WTF is a reversible slipcover? I assume they mean different stuff printed on each side?

Yeah, one cover and spine is the Doctor Butcher art and the back cover and other spine is the Zombie Holocaust art. Their Midnight/Backwoods Massacre slip was the same way.

I will wait to see what release is the best.

I don't suppose Severin has shipped these to anyone yet so that we can get some opinions...

I thought I ordered from Severin but it turns out I didn't. Still no movement from Diabolik.

I don't think Severin, in light of their own direct website sales and all the promotion for their Black Friday event, will be sending Count Dracula 4k and Zombie Holocaust 4k out to retailers early. I also ordered these two titles from Diabolikdvd, and I seriously doubt I'll have them in-hand before November 30.

Actually, my order status has been updated so maybe it's getting ready to ship. I'm in no rush since I own the 88 Films edition.
