We have RANCHO DELUXE coming after WALKING THE EDGE. RADIO ON will be hitting closer to the end of the year. There will be a few things in between, to be hinted at more soon.

Got Walking the Edge in the mail today. Really nice slipcover and booklet. Hopefully have some time later tonight to watch it.

Had a Fun City double feature a couple of nights ago, and watched Jeremy followed by Smile. Neither of these films would likely have been on my radar had it not been for FCE's partnership with Vinegar Syndrome, as they fall outside my normal horror / cult / weird stuff viewing habits, but I really enjoyed both films. The presentation on both of them was excellent as well. Haven't had a chance to dig into the bonus features yet, aside from the interview with the two stars of Jeremy. That one is definitely worth a watch. I've gotta go back and check out the Bruce Dern interview soon.

Great job on both of these discs. I'm really excited for Walking the Edge to arrive too!

Thank you defile959 for taking a chance on some films outside of your immediate wheelhouse. It's something that we're dependent on lots of fans doing.

Jenny Agutter is so good in I Start Counting, a fine sensitive portrayal of adolescence with one of the most powerful “loss of innocence” scenes I have seen. Also happy that Fun City included a current interview with Agutter, her memories of the production were vivid and added much to my appreciation.

FCE is four for four in my book. Looking forward to Walking the Edge as well, though I suspect that won't arrive until my next monthly Vinegar Syndrome package.

Really excited about "Rancho Deluxe". Keep up the great work brother.

It really is a remarkably mature performance, which makes the film's scarcity for so many decades all the more puzzling. Getting Jenny on board for the interview was incredibly satisfying and she did give us so much good stuff in that chat.

Walking the Edge was really good.

Smile was a pleasant little surprise. Very satirical and full of good characters and a great cast.

Personally, FCE has been 4 for 4 to me. I ranked them as Alphabet City as my fav, followed closely by Walking the Edge. But you can't go wrong with them. All really good films. Solid extras, art, booklets.

LawnFurniture · 05-24-2021, 03:41 PM

Was Walking the Edge supposed to include subtitles?

tehthomas · 05-24-2021, 03:51 PM

Will FCE releases be included in the upcoming sale on Vinegar Syndrome's site?

tehthomas · 05-24-2021, 03:53 PM

Replying to my own question above.

I just saw this on the sale thread so I'm thinking FCE will not be included

Quote:

New releases aren't part of the sale, including partner label ones.

Also, saw this on their VS site

Quote:

What titles will be on sale?
Every VS, VSA, Peekarama and Partner Label title with a release date prior to February 2021 will be discounted 50% off SRP. Titles with release dates beginning in February will NOT be discounted. Special note: VSU releases and our Staff Picks section will not be discounted a full 50%.

Still hoping to snag Walking The Edge when site goes back online.

Their previous releases will be. I bought Alphabet City from a previous sale.

Even if you can't get the slipcover for Alphabet City I encourage everybody to buy it. It's an exceptional film and looks excellent on this disc.

I went in reverse order getting interested in FCE titles. Jeremy grabbed me first, then I Start Counting and finally Alphabet City.

I'm glad that kick in the pants finally came because I absolutely love this film and can't recommend it enough.
