Although a 2K restoration was done a few years ago by VCI as a 2 fer pack, these seem to be a cut above that. And although I do have that edition, I'm popping for this newer set of BDs. A pair of Mexican Horror/Super Hero releases coming from Powerhouse / Indicator films ~ Panther Woman 2K and...

Seems like even when a title is drops, there is always an upgrade to go for. This may be the case with Radience Films offering of Mario Bavas "Planet of the Vampires". The Blu ray is region free while the 4K edition is locked Region 2. KL did a nice job but was a 2K restoration. LIMITED EDITION...

Another series in great need for a restoration and BD Boxset is the classic BBC series Rumpole of the Bailey with the might Leo McKern ~ I have the dvd set and even the original Pilot episod that featured another actress in the role of "She who must be obeyed". I love the fact that the writer...

just caught wind of this project and thought others might like to add to the conversation. From the new label Cartoon Logic, a restored Blu-Ray/DVD collection of classic 1920s cartoons by Paul Terry, the dean of animation! Later to be the father of one of my favorite cartoon characters Mighty...

Just got wind of this and although most items are beyond my pay grade it is cool to window-shop and just see what is there. just a little slices is fun!! The Heritage auction coming Oct 14-15th 2023...

Bob, I was intriged with an outfit creating a 3D version of "House on Haunted Hill", a classic spookfest from childhood. Others on another forum are the diyed in the wool "traditionalists" that seem to be poo-pooing this as pointless, where others are willing to see and at least try and have...

I love seeing such love lavished over certain titles, this one is no exception. Given the Mondo treatment, we'll have to wait until Oct 3rd, but like all good things...it comes fast enough!! One thing I'm NOT seeing in here is an 4KHD 3D version, which WAS added to the BD2D/3D edition done by...

I've always had a soft spot for the weirdly humorous visuals of the Mexican Horror genre. With the Santo vs the Vampier Women or The Aztec Mummy series of films, these always offer an entertaining time of amusement and laughs for all...even if not intended. Strewn with heavy Catholic undertones...

Once I heard that they had upgraded this box set to Blu ray I was in. Waiting patiently for the price to drop, and ordered it...it came a few days ago and the transfers are amazing!! And the packaging is pretty nice as well, however, not having shelf room, you can just shelve the 4 BD cases...

I've always loved the humor and sensabiliy of the Brit mindset. TV series like Rumpole of the Bailey or Lovejoy and of course Monte Python are musyt haves. But sometimes you just have to search and see what series are coming out of distributors like Network. The hunt is half the fun, the other...

Love him or hate him, Wade Williams was able to amass a conciderable quatity of titles in various genres, most noteably the Ed Wood Jr cataloge and other lowball cheese features that have gained a following from those of us that enjoy these crazy features, "so bad that they're good" movies...

When I helped to support the second season of the Abbott & Costello Show I ran across another project that was seeking funds. This is where I found Redwood Creek films, a French botique film house specializing in silent film restoration. The first project that I supported was the 1926 4K...

Although having been out on BD awhile, I pulled it out of the collection for a reviewing. The story is so Bizare that you'd never believe it unless you saw it. An aritst and storyteller trying to make it in the music biz, has a couple of hits and falls into obscurity, ending up homeless and...

The Invaders was a perfect vehicle driving the 60s paranoia that pervaded the news of that time. In with the "Invation of the Body Snatchers" feel, I loved it as a kid and endlessly searched years later for a decent copy for my collection. After everything, I was able to get a Canadian...
