Well, looks like we might know their next title which is another massive one.

Which film is being speculated? I don't have a twitter account and I can't see anything from the post above.

I saw the visual clue on their facebook page and it looks like it might be "Black Belly of the Tarantula"!

What I was thinking too.

If its Black Belly, which is what it looks like, Celluloid Dreams will win this years Label Wars hands down. Again, so many years we waited for Iris and it'll be here soon. And soooo many years waiting for Black Belly and they may have it!!! Makes you wonder WTF Arrow and a few other unnamed labels have been doing?? Find it very hard to believe those labels didn't want these titles. CD just seems to have a passion and will go the extra mile to put out a great release for the fans. That is all we frankly ask for. Even if this label puts out 2 Grand Slam titles a year, that's perfect. Better than what Grindhouse and frankly Synapse have been doing. They're not Arrow yet on my list, but getting warmer.

Yes indeed they will be the label of the year if they release "Iris" and "Tarantula"!!!!

A lot of labels are losing their minds over martial arts, a craze which is beginning to show signs of slowing down (or maybe they're just running out of movies to license), but the headscratcher here is why did Blue Underground apparently pass on Black Belly? Didn't they also release 'Iris' on DVD many years ago? Yeah, I don't get Lustig. In any case, I'll be keeping my eye on CD and future developments. I'm a huge giallo fan and want to see more of these get upgraded.

Iris was announced last year and still isn't out. We may not get their next release until 2025.

If they are the only ones putting out these great titles, I can wait.

Oh man, yeah, if it is Black Belly of the Tarantula on top of Iris, then CD is going to be right up at the top of best new label debuts this year. Here’s hoping.

[DukeTogo84]

Has there been any updates on Iris? Curious if this will make the June date.

[Driver78]

I don't recall exactly what the issue was but on the last update we received from Celluloid about 'Iris' it sounded like matters got complicated. It didn't sound like anything was going to get resolved quickly. With June just around the corner and no new update, it's not looking likely we're getting anything yet. CD have been communicative with us so far so maybe they'll chime in with fresh news.

[Celluloid Insider]

The title went gold and we officially went into manufacturing/replication this morning, so, yes, we're looking good for our June release date.

[sonicyogurt]

Black Belly of the Tarantula!

[Driver78]

No surprise but big news nonetheless. Lustig's gonna be sorry he let this one go

[DukeTogo84]

Hot damn. Finally. I feel like it's been a few good months since I've watched a giallo so glad more are coming out.

[jcs913]

Celluloid Dreams with another grand slam added to their stats!! This one will probably take a while also, but at least we know it is FINALLY coming and on the best possible home video format. Not much more you can ask for.

[Darren75]

I would like to order Iris and Tarantula from their website to help support the company but they don't ship here because of 'licensing arrangements'.

Looks like amazon.com gets all the money then. Boo

[Kenneth M]

I'll be buying both gialli to support this company as soon as they're available.

They should consider doing their homefront shop pre-order charge at time of order to generate some cashflow. I'm sure they could use it, most other media companies are modeled this way, and I would prefer to order directly from them as more of my money goes towards future (hopefully gialli) releases. And that makes me happy. Hopefully they can consider it.
