My Ms 45 disc is in transit. I had trouble navigating the Web site to order it. I ended up following a direct link from the film's topic here.

Soon be receiving my Ms.45, but also own 'Bullhead' which is definitely worth seeing.

I was disappointed to notice that the case for Ms. 45 has one of those horrible 'DISC MADE IN MEXICO' stamps in large, blue, all-caps letters across the back bottom. The other clear cases I have from them - The Visitor and Trailer War - don't have any text, so I'm hoping this was just a one-time error/issue on their part.

Am afraid to say also on the casing of their 'A Field In England' disc too

Ok, so I just read on Drafthouse's website that the limited edition of The Final Member is going to include a bull penis in a vial? Is anybody going in for this!?

Definitely one of the most bizarre limited edition blus I've ever heard tell about.

1) Gross.

2) So they are whacking off (no pun intended) bull weiners for the sole sake of promoting a blu-ray? I think PETA might disapprove.

Why would you assume it is "for the sole sake of promoting a blu-ray"?

Would would you rather they do with the penises of steers slaughtered for beef? I think they are sold as dog chew toys, but I don't think that's really better.

By the way, did you know they cut off the testicles of young male cattle before they grow up to be hamburger?

Well THAT makes this an instant blind buy!

Am I right, boys?

They're sold out now. My bad.

Satire, sir. The implication being that I, dizzy with zeal, had purchased all of the dongs.

I see. The important thing is now I can still purchase multiple copies.

Shrunkenhead · 05-02-2014, 04:56 PM

I bet at least one collector on this forum springs for the bullcock.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure my "boss" would kill me if I put that up for display

Well there's a "Collectors Edition" you don't see every day!

I just came across this too. Wow. It also includes a donation form for those so inclined to donate their own penis to the museum. Drafthouse are amazing.

I've only seen a few of their films, but they've all been very good and interesting. My favourite is probably The Final Member – it's ****ing hilarious. Pieta and The Act of Killing are also great.

Haven't found one that I've quite liked enough to purchase though. I hope this changes. I really wanna see The Visitor next; hopefully they'll add it to Netflix soon. Or else, I like Shion Sono enough that "Why Don't You Play in Hell?" could be a blind-buy.

They just put so much effort into their packaging and whatnot, and the gorgeous posters – it makes me want to want to own them! They remind me of Criterion. Except probably better because Criterion would never throw in a bull penis with your movie.

Mondo Drafthouse is selling VHS editions of Ms. 45 and The Visitor. I'm disappointed in the artwork/presentation - if they were big-box replicas of the original releases, that would have been preferable. I like the 'rewind' stickers, but they should have gone entirely retro.

digs5446 · 05-13-2014, 04:00 PM

from a customer service rep at Merchmo, the company Drafthouse uses:

"Cheap Thrills is expected to arrive within the next week."

Sweet! I'm thinking this might only apply if you are an Alliance member...? Or perhaps pre-orders from not Alliance members go out at the same time. Either way, YAY!

Herry Dunston · 07-05-2014, 10:58 AM

So...why are their earlier films (or those distributed from Image) OOS across the internet? Miami Connection, Wrong, and the like are unavailable on Amazon. I could get them on Drafthouse's website, presuming they still have them in their stock, but otherwise, what's the deal?
