Wow, another CE for April.

Death Becomes Her is coming on Apr. 26th.

[BarnDoor]

Interesting. April looks like a big month now. If we're lucky we might get one or two titles on top of this. I imagine one will be the Destroyer and Edge of Sanity double feature. We'll probably get two or three from these in May:

Lady in White
Sssssss
You'll Like My Mother
Return of the Living Dead (Collector's Edition)
Manhunter (Collector's Edition)

I have not seen or heard of this film since then and even though it sucked hard, I would purchase it purely for the nostalgia factor.

I did the same thing with Hardware...saw it as a young teen in a local 2 screen theatre around the corner from my childhood home, and one day in 2009 saw that Severin was releasing it on BD!

Shout would be the perfect home for Metalstorm!!

Yeah I saw it has a kid also. It's still a fun movie to watch. I got the DVD that was released some year's back, but sadly it was full screen only. Needs a widescreen bad.

Scream have confirmed Sssssss for 4/26, so that should be that for April's titles now, unless they slot in Destroyer and Edge of Sanity.

For what it's worth, Amazon.ca no longer list it for 04/12/2016.

Still, it can't be too far away now.

DESTROYER and EDGE OF SANITY
- DESTROYER (1988) When Ivan Moser (Football great Lyle Alzado), a convicted serial killer, is set to be electrocuted, a devastating prison riot erupts on the day of the execution. In the wake of the destruction and mayhem, the prison is shut down and Moser becomes a legend. No proof of his death existed. Eighteen months later, a film director (Anthony Perkins) intrigued by the legend of Moser, decides to use the prison as a film set. One the last night of filming, the truth of Moser's fate is about to be revealed. The film crew, trapped inside the prison, begin to disappear one by one. This electrifying thriller also stars Deborah Foreman (Valley Girl) and Clayton Rohner (I, Madman).

A shocking new twist on one of the most infamous crime stories of all time, this terrifying thriller will keep you on the cutting edge of fear! After a lab experiment unleashes mysterious fumes, Dr. Henry Jekyll undergoes a horrifying transformation into a savage alter ego who calls himself "Jack Hyde." Meanwhile, the depraved killer Jack the Ripper is slicing his way through the alleys of Whitechapel, leaving mutilated streetwalkers in his wake. Is there a connection between Jekyll/Hyde and Jack the Ripper? And can anyone stop his reign of terror.
Street date is April 12th. Pre-order now @ https://www.shoutfactory.com/…/destroyer-edge-of-sanity-dou…

I have received Sonny Boy on blu ray from shout today.. and it was a blind buy.. I wasn't expecting much when I started watching it.. but boy I was wrong.. this movie is very very powerful, bizarre, moving, and just down right impressive.. o.o I highly highly recommended this if you haven't seen.. superb acting..

Long time reader, finally joined. Very excited about Cherry Falls, Disturbing Behavior and Death Becomes Her. Cherry Falls has been one on my wishlist for quite some time. Now if only Valentine, House on Haunted Hill, April Fool's Day, and My Bloody Valentine would get Scream Factory releases!!

The next two I want to get from Scream Factory are The Burning and The Fog. Never seen the former, any feedback here on what I should expect?

P.S. finally snagged a copy of the now-scarce House on Sorority Row release from Scorpion and cannot wait to play it. Such an underrated film.

My Bloody Valentine is Lionsgate, so I think that will be be held until they do it. Their DVD release during the remake was pretty good, and it had deleted scenes re-inserted into the film with a warning in the beginning that the picture quality would dip during those scenes.

If LG loses the rights to My Bloody Valentine and do not renew then it could be open to licensing, unless it winds up with the producer or something. Producers are worse than studios because they want WAY more money or want more than just to license the film to a label. The Night Flyer is with the producer who wants a label to make a remake, and if that happens, the original and remake would get released. And Bill at Code Red said something similar about Hell Night

[tylerc904]

The first two Urban Legend films would be great under SF as well. The first one is an all time favorite of mine.

My Bloody Valentine is with WB now. LG only had it through a Paramount deal.

That's correct ! Its one of the 600 key titles Warner picked up ( and has done nothing with )

[joeriggsbee]

i know this is off topic but has any one bought the swedish blu ray release of fright night how good is the quality and is it really region free?

[NoirFan]

Another (highly unlikely) Universal candidate is this extremely enjoyable little oddity, which has yet to receive even a DVD release:






Wonderful poster art for this unusual vampire-Western hybrid.

Won't happen as SF doesn't have a deal with Sony.

Didn't this deal expire at the end of 2015? I think these titles are Paramount again.
