The Sentinel (1977)

I was so excited when I saw the announcement, easily the most exciting thing they've released since the Halloween collection for me. Is it safe to assume that this is going to be a Collector's Edition?

Someone asked, and the answer is...no.

Here's their reply:

We anticipated this question. Unfortunately, the answer is no—but it’s not because we didn’t want to or we didn’t try. (“Believe me, this is one of my all-time favorite films and if anyone wanted it to be one, it would be me personally.” – Marketing Director, Jeff Nelson)

We had many discussions about what was achievable for us to do in terms of extras and found we were challenged in many areas (e.g. The Director and many cast & crew have passed away, lack of participation from key cast, etc.). Ultimately, we didn’t feel comfortable giving it the “CE” stamp and charging the higher price point knowing our limitations here.

Rest assured though that we will still have some good extras of course (we hinted at a really fascinating one in the main status update) just not as many as we would have ideally liked for.

Awesome news!!!

The cast is fascinating, though most of these players appears in brief roles.

Some hot chick in the lead role.
Fright Night dude
Eli Wallach
John Carradine
Ava Gardner
Burgess Meredith
Arthur Kennedy
Martin Balsam
Sylvia Miles
Jose Ferrer
Christopher Walken
Jeff Goldblum

and Tom Beringer who plays a vital role.

It's a fun flick.

Don't forget Beverly D'Angelo in one of her unforgettable roles.

Sweet!! My DVD is now in the trade pile

I like this movie. Glad to see Scream is putting it out.

I'll only buy this if it's an improvement over the existing German BD. But knowing Scream Factory will just use whaterver is given to them I highly doubt it'll be any better than the German release.

Lol! Definitely one the most WTF scenes I've seen in a horror film produced by major studio. In a very amusing way. How could I forget that one?.

One other actress not listed is a young Nana Visitor. If you are a Star Trek DS9 fan she played Kira.
