Dark Force Entertainment Discussion Thread

Oh man, selling the standard already. Must be having some trouble moving that expensive cardboard.

[miribeau]

He added the standard edition of Breeders for $20, if anyone is looking to just get the blu without the glow-cover.

I'll bite eventually, after he confirms he will not be proceeding with legal action against Diabolik and its owner/operator, as he understands it is a business just like his, meeting market demand by selling products. When he decides to focus his efforts on CMV, it won't feel like paying someone so they can build bank to destroy someone else's life.

So Code Red and dark forces are going to be suing the German company releasing Butcher, Baker, Nightmare Maker. Will this be before of after their lawsuit against VS in relation to Mausoleum?

Bill didn't have DF's glow in dark lawyers back then...

I paid for Mausoleum (more money than the other label paid). MGM said they have the rights, so I never released it and now trying to get a refund, Life is too short and let old mobster do what they want to get income for this movie.

Would love to hear what VS has to say on this topic.

Their store page said they licensed it from the producer and distributor.

You mean MPM? Motion Picture Marketing?

How do you know what the other label paid? However, there seems to be a trend with you paying more... just saying.

Wrong coast.
Is it based Bill's old master he used for the DVD or not?

Business ethics Dave...GET SOME!

When VS sells out of a limited title on BF, they sometimes get stock back after canceling double-orders. When they restock, and the secondary market is already raging with overpriced copies, they don't raise their prices...even though what they are selling is the last of a particular title "in its current form".

[jsvg00]

Can anyone give me a brief review or a screengrab of the Breeders blu-ray? I'd like to get it, but I'm a bit worried given the rumors floating around of it being another upscale.

Thanks.

They also go out of their way to cancel orders if they find out the person is scalping the title. DF praises the scalping and uses it as marketing. I wonder why one label gets praised and the other gets called a carnie.

As of 6PM PST, DF has 37 left of 100 GOH/PFT with slipcover at 39.95 and 37 of 50 left of it w/o slipcover at 27.95. Are these not selling as well as DF expects?

Harder to spend money at a store, after the owner tells you what he'll be spending it on.

He doesn't need our business for lawyers, he's got his own personal money.

Further adventures in DF's bad taste....

From the DF FB:

"A SIGN FROM THE REAL DARK FORCES or COINCIDENCE?
As Dark Force Entertainment awaits the arrival of the next new release ATOR The Fighting Eagle, a killer named Ator went on a shooting rampage this holiday weekend in Texas. Another in a series of ominous coincidences that started back during the making of "the most brutal film ever released" CHAOS. Makes you wonder DO THE DARK FORCES REALLY EXIST? Stay tuned..."

This is indefensible and disgusting. People died. Making light of it in order to sell a Blu-ray boggles my mind.

But he’s a “quick learner?” He’s made similarly tone deaf allusions to other real life tragedies before. Those that defend his nonsense boggle my mind.
