Oh no prob bro . That's an amazing cover . I would pay for that big time . Been in love with her early 80's stuff since I was 12 . Now 55 lol . And I love her songs especially the ones with Bill Wray with Rick Springfield's 80's band members .

She was hot in Young Frankenstein, but I mostly associate her with the role of Roberta Lincoln alongside Gary Seven, played by Robert Lansing in the Star Trek episode, "Assignment: Earth" which was adapted into a comic book mini-series by IDW Publishing.

She also had a small role on Batman (1966).

I forgot that she also was in Close Encounters Of The Third Kind because I always remember Melinda Dillon who also passed away recently.

Not at all, phartphace.

I received my LE copies of both this and Heavenly Bodies today, and I'm stoked. And while I'm happy they both came with quality slips, I would have 110% bought these without them.

They're both highly requested films, and many thought that we would never see a BD release of Paradise. FCE does fantastic work and has an impressive catalog of underseen and forgotten films.

For you to so easily dismiss these releases outright because you couldn't get some cardboard to wrap around the case, well, like I said...you obviously don't give a damn about the movies themselves.

[The Spectre]

Well, my copy of Paradise arrived in perfect shape, but no record.

Do you think they could be persuaded to release Nunzio (1978)?

Universal has put it in the witness protection program.

I don't have any insight into rights issues or FCE's interest in any specific films. But if they had the ability to, I could certainly see a label like them or Cinematographe releasing it.

Did anyone purchase the slipcover edition and NOT get the booklet? FCE is making a big deal about people complaining about not getting slips (obviously if you bought the slipcover edition it should come with slips) and booklets, are these just limited to Standard Edition customers (who likely didn't get either) or have some Slipcover Editions not been fully intact?

FYI: The vinyl LP record was just a bonus advertised on their social media. With only a handful printed they likely went to their employees or most dedicated customers.

[ronnie21]

not sure, but mine comes tomorrow. i ordered directly from fun city early, so iam hoping i a least get a slipcover and booklet.

[tomkara1982]

Ordered from fun city. Got the slip and booklet. Really cool release, I gotta say. Love all the different artworks being used. They didn’t try to reinvent anything, they just gave us a lot of original stuff

[Mose Harper]

Diabolik is showing the standard as in stock right now.

[ronnie21]

got mine tonight. came with slip and booklet. looks really nice.. will watch tommrrow and report on transfer...

[ronnie21]

ok heres my review!!~

Very happy with this. the level of detail that went into this has to be praised!!
now, the transfer looks very good.. the best its looked, now the tv spot looks fantastic, they usually never do.. this was a good one. Now it has an easter egg on the audio menu at the bottom, it shows the scene where phobe is skinny dippingin the ocean, not sure what soruce is used but its very bright and more reveling than the movie.. that was a nice bonus.. also to mention is that they included the original embassy pictures logo, which alot ofthese releases tend to disreguard.. also includes an extensive photo gallery . no stone in left unturned here.. this is an excellent well made release.. now on the song at the end credits. sounds like they may have tacked it on but still nice. the whole song keeps playing long after the credits are over.. i think on old cable days they just faded it out .. this is a great release . wow i forgot how much nudity phoebe cates shows here...

I'd really like to have some clarity on this myself. I'm still dealing with FCE's customer service about what I can do with my missing/stolen order (I've already filed a claim with USPS, I have no evidence of theft otherwise I'd go to the police). I understand standard editions don't come with slips, but I was under the impression that booklets were first pressing only deals, like Arrow does it. Is that not true?
