20 films? I'm in.

starsteam · 08-21-2020, 09:59 PM

Guess I won't get a stand-alone edition for Revenge of Frankenstein after all - but this still makes holding off on the double feature sets worth it.

wicky_J · 08-21-2020, 10:00 PM

Pirates Of Blood River. NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE !

kidglov3s · 08-21-2020, 10:00 PM

10-disc set, so it's possibly watchable.

hudson4k · 08-21-2020, 10:03 PM

This looks like it could be great, can't wait!

AllAboutMatt · 08-21-2020, 10:05 PM

I was super excited until I saw the good ol' Mill Creek logo. I guess I'll stick to the region free indicator releases.

The Great Owl · 08-21-2020, 10:06 PM

If this fills in some of the gaps in my Hammer collection, then I'm in.

starsteam · 08-21-2020, 10:07 PM

Perhaps we'll see a similar Ray Harryhausen set from them soon since they're including previous Twilight Time titles.

RalphoR · 08-21-2020, 10:09 PM

Talk a shelf space saver. Which movies and how much is the question.

AllAboutMatt · 08-21-2020, 10:10 PM

On second thought, I may go for this if it's a decent price...

MifuneFan · 08-21-2020, 10:17 PM

I'm down. Haven't bought any of their double-feature sets yet, and this seems like an affordable way to get more Hammer films in my collection. Love the artwork too.

It’d be less expensive than those UK SEs are on the aftermarket anyway.

Will definitely have check this out, just wish they had included a list of which films.

Mystic · 08-21-2020, 10:28 PM

It should be interesting to see what they include in the set beyond what Mill Creek has already released.

CMNPlanet · 08-21-2020, 10:46 PM

So based on the artwork:

Pirates of Blood River
The Two Faces of Dr. Jekyll
The Revenge of Frankenstein
The Curse of the Mummy's Tomb
The Gorgon
Fanatic (Die! Die! My Darling)
Terror of The Tongs
Creatures the World Forgot

And then likely: The Stranglers of Bombay, Taste (Scream) of Fear and (The) Maniac

starsteam · 08-21-2020, 10:49 PM

Strange that Mill Creek doesn't have this on their site yet.

The Hammer titles previously released by Mill Creek are;
The Two Faces of Dr. Jekyll
Scream of Fear
The Gorgon
Stop Me Before I Kill (DVD only)
The Curse of the Mummy's Tomb
Creatures the World Forgot (DVD only)
The Revenge of Frankenstein
Maniac
Never Take Candy from a Stranger
The Snorkel (DVD only)
Die! Die! My Darling
The Terror of the Tongs (DVD only)

So that leaves eight more films. One is Pirates of Blood River judging by the cover art.

dkelly26666 · 08-21-2020, 11:04 PM

I'm betting These Are the Damned and Cash on Demand wind up in there, too.

I'd say THE PIRATES OF BLOOD RIVER, STRANGLERS OF BOMBAY and THE DEVIL-SHIP PIRATES from the Sony 4-film "Icons of Adventure" set are a good bet (THE TERROR OF THE TONGS from that set having already been released by Mill Creek, as you noted). Sony's 6-film "Icons of Suspense" set already has 4 films released by Mill Creek, which leaves CASH ON DEMAND and THESE ARE THE DAMNED (aka THE DAMNED).

If the above five are added, that leaves three remaining - anyone have any guesses? I'd say the Indicator box-sets would likely give us clues...

starsteam · 08-21-2020, 11:21 PM

The ones released by Indicator but not Mill Creek are
Visa to Canton
Pirates of Blood River
The Damned
Scarlet Blade
Brigand of Kandahar
Camp on Blood Island
Yesterdays Enemy
Stranglers of Bombay
The Full Treatment
Cash on Demand
Fanatic

Obviously we don't know if all the ones previously released to DVD by Mill Creek will be on this Blu-ray set. Indicator didn't release Creatures the World Forgot yet it's featured on this art.
