Will be watching this for Bertrand Bonello. I thought George MacKay was excellent in 1917 but everything else so far (and before -I went back and looked) he's been very poor.

I saw this at the London Film Festival & it is a great film. Both the leads are excellent.

On a side note my phone accidentally started making noises, during the Q&A with George MacKay afterwards, as i was trying to take a pic of him & this was after I found out my camera 's battery had run out. Thought my phone was on silent but turns out it wasn't & I'd not had it long so got in a muddle with it.

I see they've dumped a load of their back catalogue for free on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@KaleidoscopeEnt Some good stuff in there and obviously it means Poundland have more shelf space for things that cost more than a pound.

Baltimore was just released this year (plus The Getaway, The Crow on disc) so amazed it’s on there, some quality titles like Misery Loves Comedy, The Seasoning House, A Cock & Bull Story, Wah-Wah, White Squall, Drop Dead Gorgeous, Austin Powers, The Guest, I Kill Giants, While We’re Young, Sunshine Cleaning, Second Coming, The Good the Bad and the Weird, Death and the Maiden, A Serious Man, A Most Violent Year, Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead, I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead, Buried, The Family Man, It Follows, Drive, Adaptation, The Truce, Thirteen Days.

Nitroes · 08-29-2024, 06:04 PM

Yup lots of gems. Cock & Bull Story (great film) looks like some nasty badly framed DVD though.

Most of the other stuff is fine.

I'm guessing maybe they get 50p a view via adverts if people don't have Youtube premium so it'll add up.

CelestialAgent · 08-30-2024, 12:50 AM

Like with In This World, the DVD is open matte.

They’re also releasing Neil Marshall’s most recent bad film and a wholly fictional meeting of minds

Watched this last night and really liked it had a double bill with Time Addicts not that different really.

Cast was excellent especially Léa Seydoux. Une belle bête.

Mackay was very good so my hope is restored.

Before Dawn / Levi Miller / September 2024

Definitely worth a watch I reckon. Artwork's not going to help sales. There's a US Blu-ray will slightly better artwork.

Why has the Kaleidoscope and Vertigo pages been merged, they’re two different companies?

I think Vertigo have been releasing their stuff for a while but the first I noticed both names together on media was a £2.00 DVD in the British Heart Foundation which only mentioned copyright to Vertigo but the logos included Kaleidoscope.

Maybe they've combined forces.

The Exorcism has both logos too:

Anyone know if this is Region Free, Criterion (US distributor) hasn’t appeared to announce it yet and the earliest it’ll see a release here is most likely next year.

Criterion news: https://www.blu-ray.com/news/?id=35246

If I had the UK disc I'd keep it happily but obviously with a month to release I'm cancelling.

I do prefer the UK artwork though says much more about the film.

Definitely agree with you on that one.

Nitroes · 09-29-2024, 07:15 AM

Well, I've decided to stick with the UK release as the US is fake Criterion (Janus Contemporaries) with 1 extra and there's already loads of great extras on Youtube. I watched them last night so I'm happy with that. Hopefully Vertigo have something.

And I like the UK cover

Nitroes · 10-19-2024, 01:31 PM

Got my disc it's locked B.

Had a flick through it and it looks great.

Main file is 30GB and there's no extras.

Has HOH subtitles.

theosh · 10-20-2024, 12:10 PM

That’s a shame about the lack of extras but not unexpected. Is it completely barebones or is the film’s trailer on the disc?

Brandon K · 10-20-2024, 06:00 PM

The UK cover is indeed nicer... would be even nicer without all the stars and the rating logos of course lol.

And I assume that the film itself is the theatrical version, with the QR code at the end, and there's no end credits or the extra scene.

I don't know why no one would think to put those on the disc as a bonus feature.

Nitroes · 10-21-2024, 06:36 AM

Disc does have a trailer and that QR code at chapter 14. I still try to avoid trailers before a film I did peak at Cuckoo's trailer (couldn't help myself having watched Luz) for a minute. Watched The Substance the other day and it wouldn't have been a surprise had I seen the trailer. Again, though I was watching for the director.

Saying that Vertigo wouldn't let me fast forward through their forced trailer for Hoard which looks very interesting.

Fixed that for you.
