Shout! Factory / Scream Factory

[John Cope]

Ridley Scott's Someone to Watch Over Me is coming on March 12th.

Finally! Hope it includes some great extra features (most especially appreciated would be a Scott commentary track but interviews with Berenger and Rogers would be awesome). What I hope for most is a sterling transfer of course. I never really thought this would actually happen. Remains heavily in contention for the title of Scott's most underrated feature. Certainly it's one of my own top tier favorites of his work ("Is it love, Mike? I hope so. I want it to be worth it for your sake."). Cool use of the old poster art too for the cover design (I think I may even still have this version of the poster).

Scream Factory announced they are releasing Superstition on Blu-ray. So they are one of the two other companies that have licensed StudioCanal titles.

The Manitou is also coming

[KJones77]

Disappointed that Shout were in fact one of the companies with a SC deal. Now these titles will forever be overpriced (except when they offer a generous 5% discount! /s).

I wish that pretty much anyone else got their hands on these SC titles. Bummer.

[Adam X]

Hey, it could've been Twilight Time...
Very happy someone's releasing these two, especially Superstition.

Shout is releasing a Karloff/Lugosi Blu set with the Black Cat (1934), the Raven, the Invisible Ray and Black Friday

That's Universal's Bela Lugosi Collection minus Murders in the Rue Morgue

[AfterTheRain]

That makes me wonder if Kino managed to snag Murders in the Rue Morgue in their licensing deal with Universal.

[domino harvey]

This Gun For Hire on Blu in April!

[domino harvey]

And the Boxer with DDL, Kuffs, and Talk to Me

[cdnchris]

Man, I recall renting Talk to Me on HDDVD! Nice another universal title making it over to Blu, surprised Shout is the one doing it.

That makes me wonder if Kino managed to snag Murders in the Rue Morgue in their licensing deal with Universal.

I bought the French BD but sadly the audio had lots of new music on it for some reason.

Gary Sherman has said that Shout is going to release Vice Squad on blu-ray.

[M Sanderson]

Shout is releasing a Karloff/Lugosi Blu set with the Black Cat (1934), the Raven, the Invisible Ray and Black Friday

Hope Black Cat is a strong release. Looking forward to catching this as well as Criterion’s Detour for a nice double bill of Ulmer.

May 28
When a Stranger Calls Back

This is great news! Especially since I think the Second Sight edition is OOP.

[dwk]

Scream is apparently going to release a Collector's Edition of Night of the Creeps

[domino harvey]

$70 for a Tom Atkins doll and a slipcover, great deal. I think I'll stick with my existing feature-packed $7 Blu-ray thanks

[J Wilson]

Amazon is showing Legend of the Seven Golden Vampires from Shout on April 9. Been waiting for a re-release of this for a looong time.

You are greatly underestimating the market for a Tom Atkins figure.

[domino harvey]

If it's more people than Tom Atkins' immediate family, you are surely correct

[colinr0380]

Take the trenchcoat off and you could have a Halloween III doll!

[DRW.mov]

Tom Atkins is an 80s sex icon and I will not have him slandered.

I don't care about the version with the doll, but the collector's edition Blu-Ray with be a worthwhile release IMO if it includes the theatrical cut (in addition to the director's cut), as Scream Factory says they are working to include. I've never bought any of the existing Blu-Rays since they didn't have both versions.
