I remember he was giving updates regularly about the color correction, etc, but that seems like over a year ago. I also believe that the French release, that just came out, was based off of CR's transfer? That was at least what I remember about it.
You are right, I don't remember any information coming out about Church. Opera, to me, is the 'big boy' of the 3, so hopefully it's almost done, but a little info on its progress would be nice.

Walt's last post about Opera was that they were fixing some audio problem (one that very well might not be fixed on the versions that are out now).

Could you release them near me?

I'd hope to hear about details on Opera soon too. Seems like with Suspira coming in Dec/Jan, would be a good time to release it, maybe even Feb. Plus those are slower months for most Labels. Especially horror. I would easily drop decent money for a nice edition of this. But I do hope it gets a release during slow season. The Church and the Sect will be day one as well. Those are some of the more highly anticipated titles you guy's released in a while I'd say.

I know this is technically a DVD question but how is the audio and video quality on this...

Was thinking of blind buying it since there doesn't seem to be a blu-ray version available.

I've never seen the bd myself, but it seems to be the case:

I also remember seeing caps that confirmed it, but I don't remember where...

You're right, thanks for the link, same source released everywhere, i only saw the bashing against French disc!

Mpmarks1975 · 10-08-2017, 03:17 PM

Yeah I have the Italian and it looks like the screenshots that were posted. Just to confirm Walt's last update it was regarding the audio as previous releases didn't sound too great.

I spend tons of money to make the new beautiful master, Overseas said they will pay % of it. They paid, got the master, and wanted a refund saying they will not use it. I refunded them, they still use my beautiful master. SCAMed ME,

Hey Walt, got Kill and Kill Again in the mail today, won't be able to throw it on until weekend but stoked to check it out. Was wondering if you're still planning on releasing Kill or be Killed?

Lucy Ashton · 10-13-2017, 06:22 PM

Hey, Walt! Are you still shooting for Rituals to be out before the end of the year? Really excited about that one!

CUT AND RUN is delayed do to a technical error, which Bill's "editor" is in charge of, and he botched something, me and Nathaniel Thompson caught it, hence the delay, and its taking ages to fix two simple fixes for some reason or another!

as for OPERA, PSYCHIC, GATES OF HELL, CHURCH, SECT, please do not ask him any questions. He has NOTHING anymore to do with these projects, so address them all to me on the Scorpion thread.

thank you

Since we're supposed to direct our questions towards you can you give us an update on those Italian titles mention?

Hi:

The standard release of OPERA should be up for pre-order at Amazon in a few weeks, from a different distributor than usual.

This new distributor will also handle the standard versions of THE SECT and THE CHURCH.

The planned 3-disc set of OPERA, and the deluxe versions of the other two will be offered at Ronin before the end of the year, and those will feature all the extras, as well as the Italian language tracks. So wait for the deluxe versions if you want all the extras.

THE PSYCHIC and THE GATES OF HELL: I have not yet received the new 2K scans as they haven’t started the scanning process yet, but hopefully soon...

Hi Walt, thanks again for taking the time to share the latest details. Just to confirm, these three releases are now officially Scorpion titles? Or are they still Code Red although you have overseen all their handling?

thechicken · 10-15-2017, 09:06 AM

Is it just the Italian titles mentioned above that you'll be handling, or any of the others previously announced by Bill?
