Gorgo coming to Blu-ray

[NoirFan]

I pre-ordered from Import CDs, substantially cheaper. From a recent DVD Savant column:

I've seen .... a check disc of VCI's new Gorgo release! The
movie is just as good as I remember and the disc looks very good. The nighttime
big destruction scenes are spectacular in Blu-ray. A full review of final
product will follow closer to the release date, but I will remark on the disc's
elaborate extras, most of which seem to be the work of Daniel Griffith and Lee
Kaplan, with major on-screen input from Ted Newsom. The extras are a real fan
round-up -- and the participants are given a special on-screen credit. The
galleries appear to have rounded up every poster, lobby card and photo ever
released of the film. And they have a couple of BTS stills of the Gorgo head
costume, and the elaborate hydraulic rig that the monster suit mime had to wear.

I was as happily surprised as anyone back in late 2011 when VCI announced
that it was going to access the original printing elements stored by MGM in a
midwestern salt mine. Gorgo has been impossible to see in a really
satisfying form for decades, and VCI's disc replicates the jaw-dropping matinee
experience for a certain stratum of baby boomers like myself. At the moment the
disc's official release date is March 19, and frankly, the price is right as
well.
