checking his filmography, it must be the only bronson film I haven't seen. Am I safe buying the DVD or are they going to release a special edition 4k with bronson's zombie personalized signature?

None of us really know. I think the general assumption is that St. Ives is way down Warner Bros' priority list for Blu-ray releases, which would make me believe that our best hope would be Warner licensing it out to someone else to release. I have the DVD and it looks pretty good to me but I would buy a Blu-ray release in a heartbeat if someone would release it.

Agree that the DVD of St. Ives looks pretty good. Now Telefon on the other hand...

I forget where I read it, but I remember reading there may have been something up with finding quality film materials.

It has. It was on ITunes (France) but with a miserable master. It looks like an upscale, washed out colors, milky etc.

An insult to my eyes.

I just realized today that Shout Factory is releasing "The Evil That Men Do" on Blu-ray on November 29th.

I have no clue about the master/scan of the film but they list 3 versions of the film on their release: a 90 minute R-rated version, a 90 minute Unrated version and a 96 minute TV version of the film. The TV version of the film is in SD:

St. Ives is a great one, just watched it last weekend. One of my favorite Bronson’s.

Machine-Gun Kelly is getting released on blu in France. Hopefully this means Shout will release it here soon!

[Show spoiler]

I don't believe it ever even received a proper dvd release here in the states...

10 to Midnight down to $15.99 on Amazon. Currently $20.99 during the Shout Factory sale.

Just received my copy of Machine-Gun Kelly (1958)

Plays on region A & B
Has the original 2.35:1 ratio 1080p etc
It runs 83mins (not the 80mins usually quoted for this movie)
The subtitles are French only but removeable.

The PQ isn't fantastic or anything, it is HD, but appears rather soft, no signs of digital manipulation though.
The sound is original mono but quite rough like a beat up print.

Glad to finally own it on BD, I had a ropey DVD previously. Maybe the rest of the those late 50s starrers will get out too.

What are the biggest Bronson titles yet to hit blu-ray? Off the stop of my head I am thinking Telefon and St. Ives but I feel like I am missing another pretty big one.

KillerCannibal · 07-09-2023, 06:24 PM

Glad Kino is releasing more Bronson but no reason to upgrade my Umbrella release of 4/5.

Other than needing Telefon and St. Ives... maybe Love and Bullets? But seems like most everything else has had a BD release somewhere.

"Love and Bullets" and "Borderline" but I´m afraid that there are not going to release them because of the existing material (master).

"Raid on Entebbe" is a TV movie from 1976. It was a big surprise that big star Bronson accepted a role in that TV movie.

"Red Sun" is out on blu-ray in Europe but not in the US yet. Like "Telefon" and "St. Ives" it´s with Warner.

With Olive shutting down, maybe KL can pick up Kinjite and Messenger of Death and give them proper releases with subtitles.

I'd like some more of the low budget b-movies he starred in from the late 50s and early 60s and also the Donner film X-15 where he's second billed. I have them on DVD but the quality ain't great nowadays.

Right. I'd love to get Gang War. His only starring vehicle I haven't seen...

I'm still hopeful to see a re-release of Death Hunt.
