"Blood Beach" Rare Horror Movie! Anyone Remember This? - Blu-ray Forum

CZAR · 09-22-2009, 09:56 PM

I came across this title while browsing online! I remeber watching this on HBO as a kid!! This was a great horror flick back in the 80's! Im sure its hard to find and probably not even on dvd but I didnt search for it!! Anyone have this or remember this?? This would be a blu-ray dream!! Got Em!!

I got a copy off an old vhs. Awesome movie. I remember seeing the ads for this on TV. I even remember seeing this on Siskel and Eberts show when it came out. Its not too bad. I figure since its not out on dvd even, a blu release is a pipe dream.

I still have a copy of Blood Beach on a 6hr. VHS tape.

Cheesy fun. I still remember the tag line:

"Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water - you can't get to it."

Belloche · 10-01-2010, 06:21 PM

I watched on TV a couple of years ago. I wouldn't call it good, but I have a weakness for 70s and 80s horror movies so I'll watch just about anything.

Gosszilla · 11-20-2011, 07:11 PM

I would like to at least see someone like SHOUT! Factory bring this out on dvd.
Saw this only once on Showtime during the 80's. I always break a smile when I see the original poster art...

Jonbaker · 06-17-2021, 06:04 PM

Hoping that Vinegar Syndrome will release this.

ScareBearDan · 08-21-2021, 09:41 PM

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't every single cheap DVD release of this film an edited cut of the film running about 10 minutes short of the original 92-minute length? I have a U.S. DVD-R release and the Spanish release, and they are both the short version.

I would love to seee this get a release. Its a good movie, one i enjoy watching every couple of years. I always thought the acting was solid.

DR Herbert West · 09-15-2021, 01:50 PM

Desperately needs a Blu.

CSM101 · 09-15-2021, 02:08 PM

I’ve not seen this movie in years but I remember it was at the rental section at Piggly Wiggly and the cover use to freak me out. Something about it seemed so taboo. My dad finally rented it and it wasn’t so bad. I’d totally buy this if it were released. I only have two memories of the movie itself, a tacky tourist scene and

A Blu-ray release using the awesome poster art would be most welcome.

Leslie Dame · 09-15-2021, 05:36 PM

It is usually one of these why certain films haven't been released to DVD or blu yet

1. Complicated rights issues
2. Original elements are lost
3. Owner doesn't care / asking for too much money

That said, I would love to own Blood Beach on blu

CrowKiller · 09-15-2021, 05:38 PM

Who the hell knows with this. Some say it's rights issues, but those have possibly been resolved. Others say there's no print (last known) to be good enough to make it worth the effort. Even some saying Lionsgate possibly owns it. Whether it's all true or none of it's true, I don't know. I do know though, that this does needs a blu release.

jaws3dfan · 12-07-2021, 05:18 PM

I bet Lionsgate will eventually releases it as part of the Vestron line although I would rather see a company like Scream Factory, Kino, VS, or Synapse release it because they would go all out and pack it with extras, steelbook, etc.
