My Jamaica Reef and Terror Express were relatively fast. It only took 27 days to arrive. Yeah, hopefully things will me a little quicker now.

Ordered: November 26th. Shipped: December 6th. Received: January 15th.

7 long weeks later here it be!

First ones to be watched will be "The Black Dragon" (which I wanna do a review of) and "Yeti: Giant Of The 20th Century" which looks to be craptacular.

DukeTogo84 · 01-15-2021, 11:32 PM

So my order shipped, but when I look at the order, there is no tracking number? Is that normal?

delicreep · 01-16-2021, 02:37 AM

So, Dark Force is releasing The Devil's Female? This is one of my top wanted titles that hadn't seen any legit release beyond VHS. And now, 4K? And, fully uncut? Looking forward to this one!

DukeTogo84 · 01-19-2021, 12:51 AM

Just watched Journey Into Fear with Vincent Price and Donald Pleasance, and was pleasantly surprised as to how much I enjoyed it. A solid release from Dark Force.

Koda · 01-24-2021, 01:12 AM

Can anyone tell me what the difference between the two releases of The Black Dragon / Enforcer from Death Row are?

One was released on August 07, 2020.

There's a different entry for one coming out in February of 2021.

"LOOKING AMAZING! DARK FORCE NEW RELEASE 2021:

The new 4k of the Matt Cimber 1983 action/fantasy HUNDRA in glorious scope looks absolutely spectacular. The stunning hi-def lends well to the action packed spectacle led by the equally stunning Laurene Landon. Dark Force spared no expense to ensure a grade A restoration on this huge upcoming release.

Awesome!
Been looking forward to Hundra!

Thanks Duke, we've been telling everyone this is a little sleeper of an overlooked movie that is definitely a solid very entertaining release.

Great news about Hundra. The Subversive DVD has a lousy transfer that didn't even pass muster in the SD days. Very much looking forward to this upgrade.

I didn't think the transfer was that terrible, although it seemed soft even for an SD transfer and I recall some print anomalies. The Subversive release is worth keeping for the Ennio Morricone soundtrack CD and comic book.

It is awesome news that it's getting a 4K scan now. Hopefully Yellow Hair and the Fortress of Gold is also forthcoming... the old Rhino DVD's non-anamorphic transfer of that was also quite poor.

I assume HUNDRA is a ripoff of Beastmaster since it was filmed a year later and has some sort of cat creature as sidekick

The fact that it has a Morricone soundtrack has me more interested than in the film itself.

Red Sonya would be a more accurate comparison, but Hundra came out before... But its all sword and sandals, so same diff

Rayjg · 01-25-2021, 04:31 AM

I actually enjoy Red Sonja. The Morricone score helps but I also like the effects. It’s hilarious to read that De Laurentiis turned Arnold’s cameo into a larger part than he had agreed to through the editing.

Dollar Colonel · 01-26-2021, 02:36 AM

Okay, I just watched Primal Scream.

All of you on this site who gave this a 7.0 average have some 'splaining to do.

Haha, I could barely get through that one. Just terrible, and not in a good way.

I had high hopes for The Banker, but was bored to death by it. The only aspect I enjoyed was the 80's aesthetic.

Wasn't this 'the most anticipated title ever' on physical media? I was bored to death by it and got rid of within a week of having got it.
