Yes, all has been covered/discussed in the two pre-existing threads:

Elvira: Mistress of the Dark (1988) coming from Cinespectral Films

Elvira, Mistress of the Dark- Would love to see this who has the rights?

nathanashby · 03-01-2017, 02:36 PM

It would be great to know a date in advance for when the preorders will go live. Some of us have been following the ups-and-downs of this release for nearly 6 months. Given the limited nature of this release, we would hate to have it sell out before we have a chance to grab it. Any chance on giving us a firm pre-order date Cinespectral?

Cinespectral Films · 03-01-2017, 03:47 PM

We will notify shortly before we switch on the shop. We might also add some advise to make sure every order works out fine.

No panic, all cool!

Will that notification be here in this thread, or on your Facebook?

Cinespectral Films · 03-02-2017, 12:51 AM

I will try to do both!

The content of the disc has nothing to do to get an online-shop with international interface online, which has to obey the rules of the european union while being e.g. US-friendly at the same time...

As for our track record. Frankly, we gave all for this release, even though we are a damn small company. We went all the way with it and if that is not good enough, then we can't help it. Without sounding snobbish, I don't know if every other label would have produced those documentaries and pulled most of the other stuff... But in the end, we understand, the customer has to decide.

Sometimes to think how one might act in our shoes, if he would have to do all on his own, I think it would help a lot.

As for pre-order, we will make now a step back and reduce some options to make this work.

I would be happy waiting until all the issues were ironed out. This isnt transporting an organ for a life saving operation, its ready when its ready.

Both not, sorry.

Straight from our shop, however (believe it or not) it will offer fast support and more feasible shipping costs.

Cinespectral Films: don't worry about a thing... we are a very patient lot. As long as it is not DNRed to hell, and there is no "teal" tint to the color timing, I will be a very happy customer.

On the bright side, I will say that this is a much better choice than ALIEN 2: ON EARTH.

So the color timing on the Blu-ray shows her skin in a more pale tone, while we prevented any clipping or black crush as far as the interpositive print allowed it. This was a very costly scan, unlike most scans done on such movies. We only had limited choice of studios in LA and decided for Deluxe and the Lasergraphics The Director 4k to a have a solid base for restoration.

The colors now are very natural without losing any 80s vibe.

Cool! Any chance on a single, teeny, tiny screen capture? Just one?

I have to inquire our studio for that as I do not have the possibility of doing screenshots right now. Once they have free capacities we will post a comparison with more than just one screenshot.

Luckily I had email alerts on for this thread so I am able to see the photo you posted. TBH, I can't tell virtually anything from it one way or another but I appreciate the tidbit & the willingness to indulge us!

diceman89 · 03-07-2017, 12:29 AM

That's going to be a 2 AM release for me. Hmmm, I guess I'll have to wait until I get to work and just hope that the good cover art isn't sold out.

Monroville · 03-07-2017, 02:05 AM

I kind of wish the third mediabook was all black (to better match the front cover artwork). I love most of the Koch mediabooks, but their HERCULES and INVADERS FROM MARS were ruined by including that stupid white border (as opposed to making the artwork fill the entire front and carry the color over the spine and back cover).
