I spent the morning reading through this thread and I didn't realize they have released so many great titles. Thanks to the suggestions of many of you, I headed over to ImportCDs and placed an order for The Unseen, Tower of Evil and Tomboy.

The prices are too good to resist. I'll have to do this every few weeks until I've caught up, because this is one Blu-ray label I want to support.

What about Monster Club? You can never go wrong with Vincent Price!

Marsupial Werewolf · 10-23-2013, 09:32 PM

Oh, I will absolutely be purchasing Monster Club in the near future!

Only movie in their upcoming catalogue that gives me any pause is That's The Way of the World. I'm not familiar with it, but it sounds like it could be interesting.

That they do. No idea then.

Space Raiders is with WB, so that can't be it.

Going Bananas? Hoping for They Still Call me Bruce. The guy who played Bruce was awesome! Johnny Yune.

My newfound love affair with ImportCDs deepens.

Just posted this in the Scream Factory thread as well but since you bring up Importcd's here I will paste in what I just typed in the Scream Factory thread.

"Serious issue with improtcd's guys. I had just placed an order of 16 units, 4 of them shipped out yesterday but the other 12 I come to find out today were all cancelled for reasons I don't know why. The items that were cancelled were either pre-ordered items or items that showed in-stock within 5-10 days. I don't know what is up with this but I just sent them an e-mail. Same thing happened to me with my last order with deepdiscount, except I didn't realize that order got cancelled until after the releases came out. Actually many of these items placed in this new cancelled importcd's order were titles that were cancelled from that last Deepdiscount order. Just want to advise all the Importcd's shoppers here to keep a close eye on all their order status's."

Marsupial Werewolf · 10-25-2013, 03:31 PM

^ Thanks for posting that!

I placed an order for some Scorpion titles earlier in the week but they have all shipped out.

Please keep us posted on what happens with your orders if/when you receive a response.

Dex Robinson · 10-25-2013, 03:49 PM

I find ImportCDs is generally excellent with in stock items but I no longer pre-order items and I don't order anything that isn't in stock. I just got an order of five discs from them last week. Service was great (although slow as usual). The order was nicely boxed. It was my fifth order in the last year with no problem.

Unfortunately, they have a reall buggy system when it comes to out-of-stock or pre-order items. Personally, I think all they really need is a serious software upgrade for their ordering system. I'm sure they don't willfully cancel orders but their system does a very poor job with things that are not in stock and makes an even worse mess when you mix in stock and out-of-stock items.

If they would just get things fixed, they'd get three times as much business from me.

This is exactly it. Deepdiscount is owned by the same company as Import and when I got my reply from them last week as to why some of my items were canceled they told it was a system glitch. Better Software is definitely what it seems they need. I guess I will have to start ordering just in-stock items and hold off on the pre-orders, which is unfortunate but there prices can't be beat so I will work around the problem areas.

Sorority House Massacre?

It's a very good film. I own the Synapse DVD under the Dark Forces title and it's a slow burn Australian horror film. Not all that 'scary', but definitely engrossing and through-provoking.

I fully intend to upgrade to Blu in the near future.
