that one escaped me for some reason. I still have the cool Anchor Bay Hellrasier Tin with 1 and 2 , that will do nicely until a better release of HR II comes out in the US but I wont hold my breath . There is that Aussie release for part II though, but I have had tons of delivery issues ordering from down under such as not getting delivered at all ! ... options options options

I wouldn't mind seeing the 1993 Mario Van Peebles "Werewolf Cop" tv movie Full Eclipse on blu. HBO Studios put out the dvd, but I'm not sure if that would mean they still have the rights. I think it would fit well into the Scream niche.

Same here. I still remember seeing that Tin set online for pre-order and instantly busted out my debit card. I ended up buying the first film on Blu-ray(whichever was the better version of the two Blu releases)and the transfer to me was fine. Then again, I'm not hardcore into scrutinizing PQ and a year ago when i did research and tried to train my eyes to see all these problems a lot of Blu-rays have, just couldn't do it. I have 20/20 vision still but for the life of me barely notice if at all EE for example.

Would be nice for them to re-release Hellraiser II though.

Is there a new proper website for Scream Factory? The link I normally use to check everything out isn't working anymore.

You are right, but down at the very bottom of the item page it says the following...

We have sold out of this limited run. Please check other online retailers and participating stores to find your copy.

From Beyond came slipless as I expected. Gonna have a hard time tracking that one down.

Last year I spoke with someone in the HBO media dept and I asked not about Werewolf Cop, but a gigantic list of films/TV shows and the only answer I received was "2 major hits will be available in HD in the future" I was told that "there was no intention to release past products in the forseeable future"

I really wanted Split Second, Spawn Animated, many made for HBO movies. Even "You Don't Know Jack" was only released on DVD well into Blu-ray success era

Yes, but the old site said that as well and wouldn't let you add it to the cart.

Lord of Illusions (with poster) is available to preorder on Shout's website:

https://www.shoutfactory.com/film/fi...ctor-s-edition

Worth noting that it's a 2 disc release.

Yeah, that's odd. Maybe they had some cancelations and there's some now available?

I have the same dilemma. I've never tried to track down a slipcover before. I checked eBay with no luck. Any other places I could find it?

[demonknight]

About to start Monkey Shines, the second film in my Monster Madness theme month (films reviewed by Cinemassacre's James Rolfe as part of his Monster Madness series).

The first was The Exorcist. Phenomenal movie, but the exorcism scene was kind of a letdown considering how amazing everything before it was.

Other Scream/Shout titles I'm trying to see this month are:
-Galaxy of Terror
-Gamera: The Invincible (maybe)
-Q: The Winged Serpent
-Rob Zombie's Halloween
So... Could someone recommend me the best Corman/Price/Poe movie?

The Masque of Red Death probably gets my vote.

That's definitely the general consensus for best, Pit and the Pendulum is probably the closest to it in popularity. Tomb of Ligeia is like, the hipster choice. :P If you're only going to watch one, make it Masque of the Red Death, but those three and Fall of the House of Usher are all must-watches imo.

Split Second is coming in Germany There is cover art but it might be delayed to 2015 since the company behind is really slow.
