They haven't been formally announced yet with release dates/extras, but the Powerhouse site seems to preparing for the announcement.

Indicator has been moved to a menu option and, presumably, Anti-Worlds will soon be listed there too.

I wouldn't be shocked if specs are announced next week when the new Indicator titles are announced, at which point they should be up on the Powerhouse site.

EDIT: Realized I forgot the Twitter link that clarifies this. These are "coming soon".

All three of them actually look really interesting, looking forward to seeing more from this line.

I found this one but it looks like it's for their theatrical releases.

The Blu-ray component of the releases will be handled by Powerhouse Films, which runs the Indicator Blu-ray label.
Separately, using internal finance, Anti-Worlds is also looking to invest in UK productions.

Chained for Life

Aaron Schimberg’s impressive second feature is his response, as a filmmaker with facial deformity, to cinematic portrayals of disfigured people, from Freaks to The Elephant Man. Simultaneously empathetic and sardonic, Chained for Life’s multi-layered meta-narrative casts Jess Weixler (Teeth) as Mabel, a well-intentioned Hollywood star. She takes the role of a blind woman in a hospital-based horror movie about abnormalities, directed by an egomaniacal German filmmaker. As shooting progresses, Mabel gradually falls for her friendly British co-star Rosenthal, played by Under the Skin actor Adam Pearson.

Disc One
Audio commentary with writer-director Aaron Schimberg
A Different Kind of Intimacy (2020): new interview with actor Jess Weixler

Set on the eve of Y2K, Relaxer is a mind-bending drama about a young man who is tasked by his overbearing brother to get to level 256 on the classic computer game Pac-Man, and not to leave his couch until he does.

Great to see these having extras. Better value for money than Eureka's Montage Pictures Vanilla releases.

I wanted to see Chained for Life but it only got a tiny theatrical release, if any.

[Gerby]

I might pick up Relaxer as it has Buzzard on the 2nd disc as an extra which i really enjoyed.

I've seen Holiday and didn't much care for it. The director didn't do herself or the dreary film any favours when introducing the film saying it was OK to be offended by it and walk out .

Have to admit I personally didn't find anything remotely offensive in the film but there is a scene that may upset/offend some but I've seen far stronger stuff in many better films over the years. holiday is very vanilla and has nothing new or interesting to say.

Personally I'm looking forward to Chained For Life and will blind-buy that.

To be fair Montage Pictures are mid-priced to encourage blind and impulse buys rather than all out boutique releases. Plus as someone with little interest in or time for on disc extras (give me a nice booklet to shove in my coat pocket and read on the train any day) I'd say IMO Montage are the better value.

But I have to say Relaxer (especially as they throw in two cuts of Joel's earlier feature Buzzard) and Chained For Life do look interesting, but at the no doubt £15+ asking price I'll be doing a little research before investing.

[DandyDancing]

Where were the specs posted?

[DandyDancing]

These aren’t up for pre order yet are they?

No, this only was a teasing. We don't even have a release date, or even a release month.

[CrockettandTubbs]

Glad I'm not that interested in these (so far) - I have enough trouble keeping up with the Indicator releases.
