We can finally confirm that the Argento title we're working on is a newly remastered version of THE STENDHAL SYNDROME! We've gone back to the original camera negative and done a new 2K scan in it's proper 1.85:1 theatrical aspect ratio. The new restoration is absolutely gorgeous! Our upcoming Limited Edition Blu-ray will also include several new Extras, including the previously mentioned interview with Asia Argento!!

So too is the American remake.cana7cl wrote:Recently announced Dick Maas' Amsterdamned. De Lift is in the works too.
I've not seen The Shaft but it looks like goofy fun and with quite a cast!AfterTheRain wrote:So too is the American remake.cana7cl wrote:Recently announced Dick Maas' Amsterdamned. De Lift is in the works too.
STENDHAL SYNDROME BLU-RAY UPDATE:
Recently, we were made aware of a minor compression issue and 2 bits of missing audio (English version only) on the new STENDHAL SYNDROME Blu-ray. We investigated and have now corrected the Blu-ray. We will be offering a replacement V2 disc for those with concerns about the aforementioned issues.

and two Stendhal Syndrome updates:We now have the final details on DEATHDREAM (aka DEAD OF NIGHT). The Deluxe Limited Edition of Bob Clark's critically-acclaimed zombie shocker will be unleashed on November 28th!
SOMETHING UNSPEAKABLE HAS COME HOME
In this shattering variation on “The Monkey’s Paw,” grief-stricken suburban parents (Academy Award® nominees John Marley of THE GODFATHER and Lynn Carlin of FACES) refuse to accept the news that their son Andy (Richard Backus) has been killed in Vietnam. But when Andy returns home soon after, something may be horribly wrong: Andy is alive and well… or is he? Produced and directed by Bob Clark (BLACK CHRISTMAS) and written by Alan Ormsby (DERANGED), DEATHDREAM was one of the very first films to confront the domestic ravages of the Vietnam War. More than forty years later, it remains one of the most chilling horror films of all time.
DEATHDREAM was released under several different titles, including DEAD OF NIGHT, THE NIGHT WALK and THE NIGHT ANDY CAME HOME, and marked the grisly debut of gore effects legend Tom Savini (DAWN OF THE DEAD). Blue Underground is proud to present this acclaimed zombie shocker in a new 2K restoration from the 35mm negative in its most complete version ever, along with original and brand-new Extras exclusive to this release!

and the limited edition is almost sold out:STENDHAL SYNDROME V2 BLU-RAY UPDATE:
The V2 replacement discs have finally shipped from the replication plant and are on the way to us. We'll start mailing them out as soon as they arrive. To our customers located outside the U.S., please allow extra time for completing customs forms and International mailing.
Our distributor has less than 200 copies of the Limited Edition left in stock. They may be sold out before we can replace them.
Just browsed the Blu-ray.com thread. It seems the PQ hits the nail this time as Amsterdamned v.2 does. But there are still two missing sound effects and some people say that English 7.1 surround track on v.2 doesn't work properly, unlike the one on the v.1 disc...M Sanderson wrote:I bought Stendhal, heard about the video issues and sent back for a refund, not even bothering to open the cellophane. With the money I bought BU’s Death Line, instead.
So, it’s safe to buy Stendhal again? Is everyone happy with the corrected version? I’ve been led to believe the corrected release of Amsterdamned is very good, but no one's really confirmed Stendhal...
