Yet still no The Village.. so strange to priortize upgrading a found-footage film to 4K

Comes down to ownership. The Village is with Disney, while The Visit is with Universal. Unless Disney agrees to license to Kino again there's little Kino can do about it.

[MichaelB]

Yes, the Disney vault seems to be sealed shut for the foreseeable future. Indicator recently had to delete half a dozen Fox titles from their catalogue after the original five-year licenses expired and Disney wasn't prepared to renew them.

I always forget The Village is with Disney.. and though unclear on my part, the second part of my comment was unrelated to the first

That’s a pleasant surprise. I love Suzy Amis in Two Small Bodies, Beth B’s film that Kino has been sitting on for a while

I would LOVE to see Criterion or another label handle this gem. Kino’s disc has nothing on it

More OOP based on previously being in the "While Supplies Last" sale and now no longer appearing on the website:

Deadline - U.S.A. (1952)
Kazaam (1996)
Malice (1993)
Mumford (1999)
Oscar (1991)
The Phantom from 10,000 Leagues (1955)
Something for Everyone (1970)

Kazaam, Malice, Mumford, Oscar, Something for Everyone and Up the Creek had disappeared only to return to stock, so this is an imperfect system, and one can't guarantee they are truly gone or not.

Case in point - The following are back on the website for the WSL sale, so either they were just temporarily out of stock (most likely) or there were order cancellations.

Force 10 from Navarone (1978)

Great. Maybe Kino will release Never on Sunday or Uptight next.

Sneakers (1992) is getting a 4K release

Love that one, it’ll be a stunner in 4K I’m sure

I watched the Force of Evil bluray. It’s a strong presentation. Better than the Olive. But still not as good as some Blurays of that era.

For me Thomas Gomez steals the film.
