I've never seen DEATH VALLEY (seen the trailer on countless CIC tapes though). Any good?

Loving these covers!

Today's annoucement a pair of crackers:

This company is really pulling out some great stuff! I'll be bagging them all, and no mistake. ::)
-

Never got round to watching it either. Really like watching an old film which has passed me by on Blu-Ray, so I'll be getting hold of this one (and the rest like I said on my previous post :-* )

They're putting out some really nice stuff. I'm very tempted by PRINCE OF DARKNESS and THEY LIVE too.
-
The Town that Dreaded Sundown! About bloody time too. Some great announcements.

It's one of those films that I've never seen but always wanted too so I'm very happy.

Did they announce PRINCE OF DARKNESS yet? It's one I'm really hoping they'll do. One of the few films that actually still creeps me out a bit ever since I saw it at the cinema.

Rumors about such films as Phantasm II, They Live, Prince Of Darkness, Wes
Craven’s Deadly Blessing, The Funhouse, and even the recently released on
Blu-ray, Halloween II were popping up.
Now comes news, that ALL of these films, save for Prince Of Darkness, and a
few other films that hadn’t even been mentioned are coming to Blu-ray and
Dvd!
Doesn't seem PRINCE OF DARKNESS is on the release roster according to here:

I must have dreamt it!
It looks like it's coming out on Universal (http://bluray.highdefdigest.com/3680/prince_darkness.html) though. That's what you may have spotted mate :D

Maybe it was and I assumed it was SS. Cheers!

This week's release from Scream Factory is:
FROM BEYOND (1986) - from the Director of Re-Animator- will be coming out as a Collector's Edition Bluray & DVD combo next year! There will be new extras along with the older ones which were on the prior 2007 DVD release.
-
Meh
I wish they would do Prince of Darkness and/or The Burning
-
From Beyond is a good film but Second Sight are also releasing it in the UK so I'll see which is better.
They seem to be mining the MGM catalogue so that's good news and I'd certainly be up for The Burning too. I've never been a huge slasher fan but that's up there and one I watch fairly regularly. Seeing as Shout released all the New World stuff it'd be nice for them to get hold of some of the AIP Cormans but I think they've gone to TGG Direct who are doing budget releases with them.
I'll take a BD of Death Line/Raw Meat.

Now that would be an essential release!

Holy shit!
THE VAMPIRE LOVERS and THE INCREDIBLE MELTING MAN. I'm getting more excited every week.

-
Looks like they are releasing any old shit now after them stellar titles have come out/were announced.
-
I remember 'Prison' being a pretty decent horror last time I watched it (80s?). Terrorvision I haven't seen, but The Video Dead has a sizeable cult following.

EXCLUSIVE SPECIAL "Halloween Weekend" ANNOUNCEMENT**
Cannon films X-RAY (1981 - aka: HOSPITAL MASSACRE with Barbi Benton), SCHIZOID (1980 - starring Klaus Kinski) and THE GODSEND (1980 - starring Donald Pleasence's daughter, Angela) are on tap for a release late in 2013! All three have never been out on DVD before.
As mentioned yesterday, these films will not show up on our schedule until later in 2013 so we cannot confirm they will be on Blu-ray as we have not seen the masters yet. We say this only to manage expectations. More details on these fun flicks will be presented next year.

I wonder if MGM still have the rights over there to SCANNERS. I'd have thought it's something they could have got hold of unless MGM value Cronenberg too highly.
I think Second Sight are planning to release all three on BD over here.

Tbe big 6...
The Fog
The Howling
The Burning
Lifeforce
Night of the Comet
Day of the Dead
All on BD next year.
-
Lovely stuff ::)
-
Oohhh... The Burning!
-
The Fog and The Burning are must haves for me. I've seen an HD broadcast of the latter and it looked fantastic.
-
THE BURNING is my favourite slasher - probably because it was the first one I ever saw (I was probably about 12) - also watched the 'STRONG UNCUT' vhs of ZOMBIE FLESH EATERS the same day. Life was forever changed.
-
I'm happy with The Burning, especially as only three weeks ago in anticipation I sold my MGM DVD for a good price, which you could buy really cheap until recently. The person who bought it could well be quite annoyed now.
-
I didn't realise the MGM disc was out of print. How much did you flog yours for?
-
£15 because it had a few marks. Been going for £20 on ebay like new or new.

Have they changed the Prison artwork to the one you posted Martin? Or is it just a mock up considering it hasn't got the combo pack info etc at the top.
Just wondered as I saw this one before and it does look more in uniform with the others.

Not gone on that From Beyond artwork btw.
-
I think it's just a reverse of the main cover.

It's hideous but I'll still be buying it.

Damn fucking right.

The face book page is filled with glowing "love it" etc comments. :o Young uns eh? No taste… :-*

What's wrong with the old artwork or the poster that was commissioned by Mondo.

Due to a long and lengthy tale of idiocy on Ebay (not my idiocy), I own two posters of the US one-sheet. It was a nightmare....

That's ace!

Looks a bit more like Cropsey from the actual film as well. The Scream Factory one looks like some weird mutant pigman.

Probably the same (sort of) people who force themselves to like the majority of the shitty Arrow covers.
Difference is Shout Factory are a decent outfit, beats me why they are using these foul designs.

I haven't even heard of this film but cover desing makes me want to buy that blu-ray!

I've not seen it either.
What's the verdict on the film? Any good?
-
It's a belter but this is very much just my opinion and am rather in the minority. Any killers with hoods are good, it's a good standard to stick by.

Anyone who says a film is a 'belter' is in my circle of trust!

I watched this from a cable broadcast last year. It's pretty decent and I enjoyed the movie, but there's some pretty jarring shifts in tone between the grisly murders and the at times comic antics of the investigators. It led me to research the interesting facts surrounding the actual case. That said, I won't be rushing out to buy this on blu-ray or DVD, but then my tastes run mostly to European fare these days.
-
Not a big fan of this. A couple good scenes for sure but the direction is mostly poor ( especialy the scenes with the director in them ! ). Charles B. Pierce is a hack who never made a completely sucessful film ( some were popular but not good per se ) Here he gives himself a supporting role and he is simply awful. As this is based on a true story, I'd guess the good parts come from the real events themselves. The ending fails to deliver taboot.
Of course Ben Johnson is solid and he escapes with dignity. Not so sure about Dawn Welles and Andrew Prine though. I saw this when released and even as a teen I was let down, but the film does have it's fans.
I think it's long unavailable status helped it's reputaton and helps explain the hype around this release. THE EVICTORS is another Pierce film that is included as a bonus on this release, and it's the better film.

I wonder how it weighs up to the German disc?
-
The German disc is shite. It would take very little to improve on it.

I haven't got it, but I have the other two and they look alright.
-
It's 4x3 and could possibly be a VHS upscale. Easily the worst Blu-Ray I have seen. Some of the German Blu-Rays are hit and miss. I got stung by the Nighthawks Blu-Ray. My HD recording off of ITV4 looks miles better.

Yeah Shout Factory discs are locked.
Each to their own on the covers I suppose, some are alright but quite a few remind me of Arrow monstrosities.
-
That Howling one is bloody terrible.
-
They are all double sided. Have a look on their Facebook page to see what they look like using the original artwork /poster.

I personally think some of Arrow's covers are fine. With the reversible sleeves and multiple covers, i usually find there's something for everyone. I liked the Zombie Flesh four sided covers they did on the ltd edition slipbox. The original VHS cover with the hand coming out of the ground and having the "strong uncut version" was a nice touch i thought.
