I'm pretty sure the entire point of Arrow's "Video" line is that they release films that are divisive and appeal to a niche audience. I'm not a fan of Who Dares Wins, but am glad it is on bluray for those that do.
It also allows adventurous types to take risks on films they have never seen, which I have with Arrow several times.

yeah i paid around 12-12,99 GBP deilvered as well. but i wouldnt have paid 15,99 for a arrow release. (well at least for most...)

I would rather cheaper Blu-rays than a T-shirt I'm never going to wear, tbh Arrow.

Can I just remind everyone that when they're saying £15.99, they should actually be saying £14.49 (right?) seeing as you get around 10% back through the rewards points system...

You also get the releases much earlier than retail too directly, just got myself Foxy Brown free with my points. All future Arrow purchases will be direct.

I know it's a reward system for buying from them but I wish they'd add a points scheme like Disney Movie Rewards. Even though I bought Invasion of the Body Snatchers from Zavvi it's still a sale for Arrow!

We don't have many schemes like that in the UK after MyMovieExtra was a bit of a disaster, the DMR is fantastic, even if they don't update the rewards as fast as we'd like.

Well, assuming you continue to buy from Arrow direct in the future.

and order enough for free shipping. otherwise some blurays are pretty expensive.

skyofcrack · 05-30-2014, 08:48 PM

If Arrow want to stay afloat they need to have periodic sales.

I don't even understand the concept of paying full price for anything, anywhere ever.

So, when you want to buy vegetables, you also wait for sales in order not to pay full prices on your tomatoes ?

Food is a necessity, Blu Rays a luxury.

You assume correctly, though I do admit I've almost bought all of the ones I want from Arrow (whereas with Eureka there are still ones I might shell out for). But I digress - there are likely to be titles in the future I will want and can use the points on pre-ordering them...like the upcoming The Visitor for example.

Vakulinchuk · 05-31-2014, 12:56 AM

Well, I watched the first Shurayukihime a couple of days ago, and didn't enjoy it like I thought I would have... Maybe it was the stagey actors, maybe it was the Meiji costumes, I dunno. I wasn't even impressed with the lead actress.

So... Million dollars question... Do you think I might like the Stray Cat Rock movies? Can I expect a better direction at least from Hasebe? give me your two cents.

fuzzymctiger · 05-31-2014, 01:13 AM

I know I said I am hoping for Kill baby...Kill! but don't know if it is one of the next Bava's or not yet. This is the one I am anticipating the most...YES even more than Blood and Black Lace.

wickedmiranda · 05-31-2014, 06:39 AM

I hope they end up making a Bava box set or bundle, I'm been putting off buying their Bava titles for that reason.

BLACK SUNDAY, BLACK SABBATH, KILL BABY KILL, 5 DOLLS FOR AN AUGUST MOON, BAY FOR BLOOD, BARON BLOOD, LISA AND THE DEVIL, RABID DOGS

Are any other Bava horror/giallo titles future possibilities for Arrow? The Girl Who Knew Too Much, The Whip and the Body, Blood and Black Lace, Hatchet for a Honeymoon, Shock etc?? Danger: Diabolik would also be awesome.
