Scream Factory Blu-ray Discussion Thread

I'm not region free and I really don't want to deal with trying to return this and get a refund.

I'll sell for $30 (what I paid + shipping) if any collector wants it. It's got a slipcase, idk how rare that is though...

Thanks for the heads up. I was able to score a copy of this for $25.
I was kicking the Shit out of myself for missing out on this.

Just FYI, Scarecrows is available to watch on Prime if you want to get a viewing in for Halloween. I'm kicking myself for not buying it, but I just can't bring myself to spend $30 for a movie, and Shout's "sales" have been pretty skimpy of late. I wonder if they are having some of the issues that TT has experienced. I managed to snag a copy of Invaders from Mars on Amazon for $17.99.

Order the AMITYVILLE HORROR trilogy last week from Best Buy, with the expectation I'd never get it, as it was showing "Getting more soon" and "Shipping Nov 1-12".

Got a shipping notice yesterday with a delivery date of Tue the 22nd.

My set is out for delivery today. Purchased it from a third-party seller on Amazon.

Technically, the site here doesn't say it's region B "locked", it just means no one had checked to see if it played in region A only players. Based on your experience, I guess their edition is region free and will be a good option for most people who have missed out.

I ordered Destroyer / Edge of Sanity direct from Shout last weekend as part of an order along with I, Madman and Vincent Price Collection II. While the latter 2 titles shipped and delivered, I'm still awaiting shipping notification for Destroyer.

It's still up for sale on their site, so I know it's not OOP yet. My fingers are crossed that this gets shipped soon!

Well looking through this list, so far ordered:
Dead of Winter
Leviathan
Scarecrows
Sleepaway Camp II
Sleepaway Camp III
Swamp Thing

Not sure if anything else is worthwhile. Invaders from Mars, Without Warning and Robot Jox seem to be impossible to find now.

Invaders from Mars popped up on Best Buy again recently and might pop up again. There’s also a few copies on eBay too. The BIN listings are $34-$37 before shipping and there are a couple of auctions that are pretty low that you might be able to snag.

However, Without Warning is still on Shout’s website and available at Best Buy for order, too.

Amazon has 6 copies of Robot Jox left...

My Best Buy orders of Empire of the Ants/Jaws of Satan, I, Madman, and Ghost Town have all shipped.

Whew!!

Sorry if this has already been mentioned, I have some catching up to do on this thread, but in case anyone doesn't know, there is a $4 and change coupon attached to the Scream double feature Blu of MURDERS IN THE RUE MORGUE/THE DUNWICH HORROR at Amazon as of this posting.

MURDERS-DUNWICH BLU

Has anyone spotted any other Shout/Scream titles with coupons at Amazon? Again, if this is old news, just disregard. I jumped to the end of the line to post this while the deal is still live.

[jrcasey1960]

Looks like they're out of stock already, showing "usually ships in 1-4 weeks," but maybe they can get more.

I pre ordered Vampires when it had a $4.78 coupon (brought it down to $19.11) it arrived release date with no issues.

[neo_reloaded]

Anyone know where to order Empire of the Ants/Jaws of Satan? That's the last one I need after I got screwed on two attempts to order it.

[jebhdb]

Received a shipping notice from Best Buy for Amityville Trilogy and Garbage Pail Kids.

[kyleblack]

I thought I had secured a copy of Disturbing Behavior from blowitouttahere on ebay but DirectToU's multi-site inventory mess struck. Oh well.

[redrunner97]

I was reading through the OP and realized The Blob isn't listed as a Collector's Edition. Harmless oversight, but thought I'd point it out.

[moviegeek1992]

Got shipped notifications for

The Amityville Horror Trilogy
Dead of Winter
Howling II
Without Warning

The last three I stuck in orders with wowhd whilst they were backordered and apparently they must have gotten more stock because a few days later they sent them.
I'm on the fence about getting Leviathan, but might bite, especially if I pair it with some other older Scream/MGM titles like Dark Angel or The Vampire Lovers. Grabbed Stigmata from Eureka Entertainment - they're currently having a sale on their horror titles, their Blacula collection is also included but I don't think they're my type of movies. I like Coffy, Foxy Brown etc but not a huge fan of goofy low budget horror films, unless someone here can sell me on them?

I'm still waiting for that one to ship from them too. The only one I've been burned on so far is a copy of Stigmata I tried to order through Walmart which Moviemars cancelled. I still have a copy of The Sure Thing on order through Walmart from another third party vendor so I'm hoping that goes through.
