I'm going to assume that you're new to Vinegar Syndrome, and don't worry this confusion happens every year. Basically their Black Friday sales are so popular that they remove all of their titles off their site for the month of December and only sell their Partner Labels. This is to help them with shipping all of those Black Friday orders out. After the sale they start shipping in this order; 1. Vinegar Syndrome subscribers 2. Flash pre-orders (those who preordered earlier in November when the titles were first announced) 3. all other sale orders. This whole process will take them basically all of December to fulfill all orders.

So the new titles, like Cannibal, are their current new releases but that doesn't necessarily mean they come out on the 1st and it definitely doesn't mean that all orders would be out by then. None of the new titles were shipped out until after Black Friday weekend. Depending on when you ordered you probably won't get shipping notice for a few more weeks.

I am a newbie. Thank you for the explanation! I ordered on 11/2 from them and 10/31 from grind house. I’m excited to get both versions but I guess it’ll be mid month before anything ships.

I’m glad we have the thread here to discuss and learn more about the process and the companies selling the film. It’s one of my fav movies ever.

My Vinegar Syndrome just arrived!!

[AG_Awesome]

Got my Vinegar slipcase Friday!! Loved the extras and checked both scans to see what I liked better. I preferred the Betacam but honestly to me, both seemed around the original dvd level. I also bought the refuse, so we’ll see which looks better. Either way though, the extras are what has my attention. Great job and still such a great film. One of my personal favs since I was in high school.

Holy shit...watched the 35mm print version last night and dug the hell out of it, will most likely be my default viewing choice for this in the future.

Stoked to explore the new interviews and feature length doc...this release rules.

It's on its way.

Someone mentioned a podcast about the controversy on both boutiques, anyone has a link to hear it?

Might it be this? He gets into that topic around 47 mins in.

Watched the Refuse Films transfer last night. Looked great! Lot's of special features on the disc. Top notch stuff.

Have you received your refuse copy? If so, how did it look in comparison?

Still no shipment from grind house. I’ll let people know which I prefer whenever it does show up.

[AG_Awesome]

Hi guys. Here’s my very short and uninteresting opinion. The transfers are very very similar, but I’ll give a slight edge to refuse. Honestly I’d buy em both or if you only want one, pick based on the extras.

Are there any screenshots available...?

Just right click or if you have a MacBook with 2 fingers on the finger-pad press down and select "Open Image in New Tab".
