I was wondering why my Orbit DVD order of this and Black Magic Rites hadn't shipped yet. Had no idea BMR had been pushed to August 29th. I really need to start ordering stuff separately. Hate when something gets pushed back a month or more, delaying something else ordered together.

I had no idea either. I ordered it from Amazon and I swear the release date was on the same day as Cold Eyes of Fear, figured they were just being their regular Amazon selves and not shipping on time. Especially since my Creepshow 4K preorder still hasn't shipped, even though it says it's in stock with 1 day shipping available.

These guys all use cheap bulk shipping. I'm willing to pay the two bucks or whatever it costs for bulk Media Mail to get it shipped - just add it to the cost of the Blu-ray

One improvement I noticed over the other two I received; they eliminated the little round sticker that attaches the J-card to the box. When that sticker is removed; it leaves a residue that's sticky. I don't know if that was a mistake or changed due to feedback, but I was glad to see it wasn't on this one. I hope they keep it that way.

Not sure how I feel about it. I hadn't seen the movie before, and I liked it, but also disliked a bit. I do feel like it needed a touch of trimming to tighten it up a little more.

I wasn't going to comment about the movie since this is more of a Indicator thread but here goes!

"Cold Eyes of Fear" is a Giallo-thriller which is a bit different than I'm used to being an American and watching mostly American films. Only recently having seen Giallo in the past from the master...Dario Argento quite had me spoiled...including some others from also recently watching the complete Lenzi/Baker Giallo collection.

The usual twist at the end wasn't so shockingly startling, nor was it obvious. In fact I'm still trying to figure out what the twist really was and what it was all about, but I could tell something was going on at the very end to make the audience finally realize what was really going on throughout the movie.

I'm sure it's just me, I can be really dense at times! Or at least a little explanation can help me understand it.

I received mine three days ago...delivered to a Amazon locker...used free shipping which usually takes longer. Hopefully you'll get yours soon!

Click on edit and then go advanced. Then highlight the text you want to hide under spoilers and click the icon of a smiley face with a blindfold over it.

Black Magic Rites 4K was pushed back or canceled. I had this title pre-ordered from Amazon and yesterday they canceled it "Due to a lack of availability..." So I took a look today and I was able to find it from a different seller on Amazon...so I ordered it again.

Frankly, I'm not too impressed with these movies (this is the 3rd one I'm getting.) The quality is good but the subject matter/plot/acting is really questionable. Mostly I'm caught up with the numbered releases, the packaging, the included booklet and the fact it's 4K. Also, I really like the art on the packaging but that's about it.

My order of Black Magic Rites, The Night of the Hunted, and The Rape of the Vampire shipped from Atomic yesterday! I’m so excited to check these out, the first three Indicator UHDs have been some of my favorites in a stacked year for physical media.

Black Magic Rites 4K which I ordered again from a different seller on Amazon around the very beginning of August...evidently was suppose to arrive yesterday.

Currently the message I'm getting is...

"On the way, but running late
We’re very sorry your delivery is late. We apologize for the inconvenience."

There is no real tracking number...just tracking and (again) evidently it was suppose to arrive yesterday...so I'll just keep an outlook for it.

Fingers crossed!
