I've never seen The Creeping Flesh, it's on YouTube so I'll watch it.

There’s also a very decent BD from Mill Creek as part of the Psycho Circus 3 movie set. Not amazing but very watchable.

I watched The Creeping Flesh on YouTube and enjoyed it. I then bought the Mill Creek Blu-ray from an eBay seller.

Anybody get the 88 release yet? I'm curious to know how it compares to the Screenbound edition.

I think someone posted that 88 have said it’s not a new scan and has the same audio issues as the screenbound. Apologies if that’s incorrect but I do recall seeing something along these lines and being a bit disappointed!

Thanks for the info. I'm probably going to get this regardless because I really love the Tigon Collection slips from 88, and it does have some new extras.

Yup, screenshots from the social media posts are in the first couple of posts in this thread

Regarding The Creeping Flesh, does anyone know what the rights situation is for a possible Australian release? Umbrella/Imprint have been releasing all sorts of stuff that the UK misses out on (just look at their Hammer releases), so is there a possibility that they could release it?

Anyone know why this is unavailable on Amazon? Been that for a while?

Got mine today. Not one of the better Tigons, but a must for completists.

Although this isn't much of a ghost movie, it does have awesome late-60s atmosphere to spare. Interestingly, although Reg Wilkins is the credited composer, one of the spooky cues used in the film is from Peter Knight's score to CURSE OF THE CRIMSON ALTAR. Both composers' work for Tigon, as with that of Paul Ferris, ended up at De Wolfe music library appearing in everything from DAWN OF THE DEAD to Shaw Brothers kung fu to COUNT DUCKULA!

Gotta admit these deluxe slips have been one of the main selling features of these releases. They're gorgeous!

Been wanting to see this for ages, watched it earlier tonight and was very disappointed. Apart from some fascinating but brief shots of Carnaby St. and the groovy fashion and nifty décor, it was a bit of a chore to get through.

The film was cut to bits by silly producers which didn’t help. I didn’t hate it, but it could have been very good.

That's a shame. Not a keeper for me, should have rented it first.
