Just got Mirror Mirror.

Curious to hear that commentary track.

Also picked up Young Cycle Girls and Kill Crazy, both long overdue.

Demon Dave, will you have some nice UHD bundle for us international customers? I got Dead pit, Final exam, Scream and Black gestapo for a very good price incl shipping and would really like to see a nice bundle for Mirror mirror, Velvet smooth and Julie darling UHD.

Thanks for the alert, and thanks to Demon Dave for the sweet 4K 3 pack deal - $99 with free shipping and no tax coaxed me into ordering.

I already have the original blu-ray releases for Mirror Mirror and Dead Pit, so I was hesitating to upgrade, but this was good enough to go.

I'll keep Mirror for the extras, pop it in a double case and make the slipcover no longer a lie , but may sell the Pit depending on how the slips compare,

I was looking at some earlier Dark Force posts on facebook. There was a post about "Death Ship", "Terror Train", "The House of Seven Corpses", "Blood Harvest", and "The Giant Spider Invasion" all being future 4k UHD releases. "Blood Harvest" is an interesting choice. Vinegar Syndrome already released a beautiful blu ray. It must be a Bill Rebane connection seeing as how they will be upgrading "The Giant Spider Invasion" from blu ray to 4k.

Hey Demon Dave, I’ve sent a few unanswered emails now about a shipping notice I received weeks ago for Mirror Mirrror and some other items with no tracking number. Pretty sure at this point they are lost or at least stuck somewhere. Can you help out?

Yes neetzan. What is the order number on that one? The store doesn't provide tracking numbers with the shipping notifications but since it was weeks ago we can check on the status and track the shipment.

#20342 (Mirror Mirror) and #20821 (Beast/Vixen, Golden Triangle, Drive-In 22). Thanks!

My package with Mirror Mirror 4k and a few other goodies has made it all the way to Australia! Thanks DF!

[Crispy Noodle]

I just wanted to do a quick positive post here to give credit where credit is due.

I ordered the nice bundle on 4/12 (see above post) and got a shipping notice on 4/19. (You guys who don't have it really need to sign up for Informed Delivery. Even though the DF email didn't have a tracking number, it showed up on Informed Delivery within a couple of days.)

Received the package on 4/24. It was boxed with bubble wrap and all three UHDs and slipcovers were in immaculate condition. Can't ask for more, really. Thanks Dave!

(And I have to keep both Dead Pit slipcovers as both slips are too nice to part with. I did combine Mirror Mirror using the new slipcover as I never cared for the original slip art on that one.)

The store is open again, with The Giant Spider Invasion 4K UHD and Texas Detour Blu-ray both up to order now.

"Special Offer" Free Shipping on $40+

Looks like no slip this time for Giant Spider Invasion?

[russweiss1]

Ordered GSI along with The Golden Triangle.

[Dingus1539]

When are we getting a look at their design for the Terror Train 4K?

Cross-posting from the 4K thread:

Wow, Demon Dave and co. did an absolutely awesome job with the Mirror Mirror transfer. Lushly filmic with beautiful grain, detail and clarity so good it often feels like looking through a window. And a great encode to boot. I honestly saw no flaws at all - I think this is a (relatively) rare perfect 5/5 4K transfer.

The movie is a gem too. I usually am not into '90s DTV horror at all but I'm glad I picked this up because I loved it.

Appreciate the feedback. This has been our most expensive and without a doubt highest quality release to date from Dark Force. And I agree brain it absolutely enhances the watch significantly. Glad you enjoyed. Let us know what you think of the "Savage Tracks" commentaries. They're a lot of fun to do so am hoping they go over.

This one you should buy for the awesome 4K quality we are achieving on these releases and the new line of "Savage Tracks" audio commentaries. The Dark Force slips are very cool but come with a lot of issues: very expensive, defects, damages from shipping...etc. THE GIANT SPIDER 4K may not have a slip but the entire wrap is spectacular looking. So a very solid release and this cult 70's flick has never looked better.

after the error4444 announcements, have you considered keychains?

or better yet, keychain slipcovers!

You are right, it does look like great art, Dave! I ordered Spider and Texas Detour yesterday

Glad to hear the Mirror Mirror 4K looks great. Waiting for my copy to make it's way to me after taking a brief jaunt into limbo status. I was going to skip it initially but the desire to own the best possible edition always wins out no matter what the film is. Can't wait for Terror Train and Death Ship.

I'm intrigued by this original series they are releasing soon documenting Douglas Dunning. He was Sir Miles Headlock on the original GLOW series (which I wish would get a proper DVD release as all releases thus far have been pretty awful).
