WEBVTT 1 00:00:23.879 --> 00:00:31.280 Hey, everybody, it has been freaking ages since I've seen everybody. I 2 00:00:31.320 --> 00:00:36.320 am so so glad to be back home and hopefully spending some time with some 3 00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:40.399 of you today. I know that this is an odd time. I can't 4 00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:43.719 even remember if I've streamed around this time on a Monday before. Probably not, 5 00:00:43.920 --> 00:00:48.560 But hey, I got two weeks of reconnected to do this week, 6 00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:52.079 so what better time than as soon as possible to do this first one. 7 00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:55.280 Once we get some people in here, we'll get started on that. And 8 00:00:55.640 --> 00:00:59.119 I just wanted to give a quick heads up that I've got some videos coming 9 00:00:59.159 --> 00:01:03.320 out going over the con. Everything that happened there, I get this tilted 10 00:01:03.359 --> 00:01:07.040 down slightly. And then also everything that happened around the con. There was 11 00:01:08.200 --> 00:01:11.359 so many activities, and not to sound weird about it, but just so 12 00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:15.879 much happened in the last week that it is it is going to be impossible 13 00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:21.000 to get into one video. So I am eager to share that from everybody, 14 00:01:21.560 --> 00:01:26.319 and from everybody. How about with everybody? Eric, my friend, 15 00:01:26.519 --> 00:01:30.560 I've missed you on here. Anthony, glad you'd delayed your film to come 16 00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:34.400 hang out with us. Neil, what's up? Yeah, Brian did say 17 00:01:34.439 --> 00:01:37.879 he had a blast. I'm glad he liked it. It was an odd 18 00:01:37.920 --> 00:01:42.120 week with some random happenstances happening, but we got through it. Dustin is 19 00:01:42.120 --> 00:01:47.439 in Holland. Damn, that's a little bit further away than California. I 20 00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:52.280 hope you're having a good time. That's awesome, Couch, what's going on? 21 00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:56.519 Scolder? Hey, you made it early this time. That's great. 22 00:01:57.680 --> 00:02:00.519 Hey, Hey, and Floyd's here? What's going on? Floyd? I 23 00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:04.040 hope everybody's had a good couple weeks. It has been weird not putting out 24 00:02:04.040 --> 00:02:07.959 a whole bunch of contents. The last thing I put out was the Giant 25 00:02:07.039 --> 00:02:13.360 Vinegar Syndrome and All Partner Labels video last week. Edit that edited that on 26 00:02:13.400 --> 00:02:17.240 the plane to California and got it up the next morning. It was it 27 00:02:17.240 --> 00:02:21.759 was a wild week. I had planned on doing Reconnected a day early on 28 00:02:21.800 --> 00:02:25.879 Wednesday, but turns out that when I got there pretty much just a couple 29 00:02:25.919 --> 00:02:32.599 hours later. Every single moment of my trip was all planned, like schedule 30 00:02:32.680 --> 00:02:37.879 to the minute it has. It has been a very busy, like last 31 00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:42.479 ten days. I'm just glad to be back here with some of you guys. 32 00:02:43.319 --> 00:02:46.120 Let's see all that's man is here. What's going on? My friend 33 00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:51.039 Neil spoke to Rob. Jeanie said, we were lovely guys. That's awesome. 34 00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:53.400 It was so great meeting up with him. He is a great, 35 00:02:53.479 --> 00:02:59.120 great person. Let's see. First, I wanted to give some shout outs, 36 00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:04.319 so while I was gone, I was giving some daily updates to all 37 00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:08.599 my patrons in the discord. It was insanity. I tried to get more 38 00:03:08.639 --> 00:03:12.080 out there, and I think I did like a day one update, Here's 39 00:03:12.080 --> 00:03:15.360 everything that happened today, and then I couldn't do it the rest of the 40 00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:17.520 time. Pretty much at the end of every day, I would hit a 41 00:03:17.560 --> 00:03:24.800 pillow and then just absolutely crash. Jeff, good evening, it's afternoon. 42 00:03:25.199 --> 00:03:30.319 Here. Where are you? Because it could be different? Angel, You're 43 00:03:30.360 --> 00:03:35.319 here live? What's going on? Hey? Dave, what's going on? 44 00:03:35.400 --> 00:03:40.039 Man? I'm glad you hear Spaghetti, my friend, you made it working 45 00:03:40.120 --> 00:03:44.319 for the next forty minutes. Yeah. I Luckily I was able to take 46 00:03:44.439 --> 00:03:47.319 the last day. I got home yesterday, and then I took today off 47 00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:52.520 just to recover. And then I got a family member that is moving into 48 00:03:52.520 --> 00:03:54.319 my house for a little while, so I had to help her with some 49 00:03:54.360 --> 00:03:59.560 things over the last well, gosh, just barely over twelve hours. She 50 00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:01.759 got in it two am last night, so even right after I got home, 51 00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:05.879 everything has even been scheduled. So yes, patrons, that's one of 52 00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:11.400 the things I wanted to shout out, everybody that has joined the community and 53 00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:15.120 done what they could kept it going the entire time I was gone. I 54 00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:17.399 mean, I saw messages flying in while I was doing other things, and 55 00:04:17.439 --> 00:04:23.279 I wanted to jump in conversations, but it just wasn't feasible. It was 56 00:04:23.959 --> 00:04:27.560 again, so so busy. But the patrons, let me, let me 57 00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:30.519 share. I'm gonna probably do this twice tonight, but just a quick shout 58 00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:35.000 out to these guys, because all these guys that are in the discord genuinely 59 00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:40.759 have a community where we are talking to each other, hanging out with each 60 00:04:40.759 --> 00:04:45.399 other, sharing movie recommendations, you know, looking for new shelves. That 61 00:04:45.519 --> 00:04:49.439 was a recent one. We we went through a whole Criterion discussion about bronzing 62 00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:53.839 on some of the older discs in the last day and a half, finding 63 00:04:53.920 --> 00:04:58.240 deals, talking about announcements, debating the zever and sale for this week that 64 00:04:58.279 --> 00:05:01.000 we're gonna talk about a little while. It's been it's been great being in 65 00:05:01.040 --> 00:05:04.839 that discord and the number of people that have joined are just magnificent. So 66 00:05:04.879 --> 00:05:08.800 thank you. Guys. Wanted to shed some light on that because it was 67 00:05:08.839 --> 00:05:13.360 really cool being gone and that community continuing to grow while I was gone. 68 00:05:13.399 --> 00:05:15.720 But then on top of that, have those people that were growing be an 69 00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:21.600 active participant in the discord. So you guys have been amazing. I appreciate 70 00:05:21.600 --> 00:05:25.879 that. Welcome home, David, It's been busy, Ken, my friend. 71 00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:29.199 I'm glad you're here. I haven't spoken to you very much of the 72 00:05:29.240 --> 00:05:31.279 last couple of weeks like I usually do, so glad to pick that up 73 00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:35.879 right back from the beginning. Yes, you were absolutely on your best behavior, 74 00:05:35.879 --> 00:05:42.000 Anthony, and I very much appreciate it. One other quick shout out 75 00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:46.279 before we get into the nuts and bolts of everything. There is a friend 76 00:05:46.279 --> 00:05:49.120 of ours that doesn't get to participate in a lot of the live stream aspects, 77 00:05:49.160 --> 00:05:55.480 but he watches these afterwards. He messaged me on Instagram because he wanted 78 00:05:55.519 --> 00:05:58.639 to share something, and it turns out he is a creator as well. 79 00:05:58.720 --> 00:06:01.319 He is not a YouTuber, but he wanted to share some of his incredible 80 00:06:01.360 --> 00:06:04.439 work. And I just got the package today and I wanted you guys to 81 00:06:04.439 --> 00:06:09.079 be able to see this. We have somebody that watches as part of this 82 00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:12.560 community whose name I'm probably gonna mess this up. I told him I was 83 00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:15.839 going to do my best, but I think it's Joshua jab Kuga. And 84 00:06:15.079 --> 00:06:18.560 he is a writer. And one of the things he wanted to share was 85 00:06:18.600 --> 00:06:25.120 his work on the graphic novel Scarface Devil in Disguise, and he wrote this 86 00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:29.720 and I can't wait to see this in the back of this. Essentially this 87 00:06:29.800 --> 00:06:31.680 is a prequel, So I wanted to share the two things that he sent 88 00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:35.399 and see if maybe you guys are interested as well. It says before Tony 89 00:06:35.439 --> 00:06:40.040 Montana came to America, he cut his teeth as a young military assassin in 90 00:06:40.079 --> 00:06:43.879 Cuba and rose up as a hustler in Havana. He knows the world is 91 00:06:43.920 --> 00:06:46.920 his and he craves the American dream. But first he's got to get out 92 00:06:46.959 --> 00:06:50.839 from Castro im pos solitary confinement. Add to his Molotov cocktail mix the Cia 93 00:06:51.040 --> 00:06:56.839 Lakosa Nostra and the scumbag who gave Montana his infamous scar make a deal with 94 00:06:56.920 --> 00:07:00.800 the devil. Just know which devil you're dealing with first, and I gotta 95 00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:03.639 admit I thumbed through the art real quick because I literally just picked this up 96 00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:08.519 just a few minutes ago, and uh, let's see is this one? 97 00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:11.720 Yeah, this is a pretty decent one to share the art on. This 98 00:07:12.839 --> 00:07:16.639 is really well done and it seems to fit the tone of the film really 99 00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:23.959 well. So I can't wait to read my way through this. He Yeah, 100 00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:27.399 that would have been a rough one to share. Again, it's just 101 00:07:27.439 --> 00:07:30.199 really well made and simply just for appreciating the channel. He wanted to get 102 00:07:30.240 --> 00:07:33.240 a copy of this in and I said I would share it with all of 103 00:07:33.240 --> 00:07:36.959 you guys. So this looks fantastic again, Thank you, Joshua. This 104 00:07:38.040 --> 00:07:42.240 is amazing. I will happily be reading that one and then the second one, 105 00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:46.399 which might align with a lot of your interests as well. He also 106 00:07:46.519 --> 00:07:54.360 wrote Bubba Hotep and what is it Bubba Bubba ho Tep and the Cosmic Bloodsuckers. 107 00:07:55.040 --> 00:07:58.480 Look at the art on this cover here and the story in here, 108 00:07:59.279 --> 00:08:01.240 It says, return the world of the cult classic film. In this prequel 109 00:08:01.279 --> 00:08:05.240 to the original story, President Nixon has discovered an alien threat, and he 110 00:08:05.240 --> 00:08:09.639 knows there's only one man he can reach out to for help. Elvis Presley, 111 00:08:09.959 --> 00:08:13.600 But will Elvis be enough to defeat a horde of cosmic bloodsuckers? This 112 00:08:13.639 --> 00:08:16.800 all new story takes readers back to a world when Elvis truly was the King. 113 00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:20.839 Adapted from Joe R. Lansdale's novel by writer Joshua jab Couga, with 114 00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:26.720 artist Todd Galusha and Horatio Dimingez. And this looks fantastic again, let me 115 00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:33.720 find a decent Nope, can't cheer that page? Uh yeah, this one 116 00:08:33.759 --> 00:08:37.360 seems good again, fantastic art, like, look at that page alone. 117 00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:43.960 I can't wait to read this. And that is a very naked Elvis Presley 118 00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:46.519 Bruce Campbell there, but you can't see anything, so hopefully YouTube's fine with 119 00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:52.679 that. These look good. I strongly suggest people look these up again. 120 00:08:52.799 --> 00:08:58.159 His name is Joshua jab Cuga. Bubba Hotep and Scarface I believe are available 121 00:08:58.200 --> 00:09:03.080 pretty much everywhere. Again, thank you Joshua for that. It looks incredible. 122 00:09:03.320 --> 00:09:05.759 I can't wait to read them, and I will let you know what 123 00:09:05.879 --> 00:09:11.519 I think. Startis. You are late, but that's okay. I'm just 124 00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:13.240 glad you're here. I feel like I haven't spoke to you in forever, 125 00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:18.000 and I feel really bad because you were there on the live telecast from last 126 00:09:18.039 --> 00:09:22.080 week on the other channel, and I was like, hey, I'm gonna 127 00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:24.440 try to do Reconnected tomorrow, and then my whole trip fell apart, so 128 00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:31.720 it was amazing. Again, I apologize for not having Reconnected for a full 129 00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:35.399 week. As I go through a couple more of these comments, I was 130 00:09:35.519 --> 00:09:39.759 curious, do you guys want to go over the Vinegar Syndrome sale stuff again? 131 00:09:41.399 --> 00:09:46.799 Because technically the last Reconnected was the night the sale went live, So 132 00:09:46.080 --> 00:09:50.080 my newest items are all from the sale, but I don't want to reiterate 133 00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:54.519 those if you know, still really have those fresh in your brain. I'm 134 00:09:54.519 --> 00:09:58.759 happy to go into what they offered, but I yeah, I don't necessarily 135 00:09:58.759 --> 00:10:05.600 need unless somebody wants to see them. Angel Pereira asks who is the publisher, 136 00:10:05.799 --> 00:10:13.519 and they are both through IDW IDW Publishing. Look at this, Dave 137 00:10:13.600 --> 00:10:18.120 says heat that serially Midnight talks about Joshua all the time. That's awesome, 138 00:10:18.279 --> 00:10:22.559 Cerla, Midnight's a good dude. He's he's got a lot of stuff. 139 00:10:24.759 --> 00:10:31.039 But yeah, like I said, publisher is IDW Any opinions on Vinegar Syndrome? 140 00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:35.159 Should we start with Vinegar Syndrome. Or should we jump immediately to after 141 00:10:35.559 --> 00:10:48.360 the Vinegar Syndrome sale, Cause right after Vinegar Syndrome we had arrow just curious. 142 00:10:50.919 --> 00:10:56.120 All right, Angel wants to go through VS and so does Jeff Sarta 143 00:10:56.200 --> 00:11:00.000 says, I bought two hundred and sixty dollars a partner title new releases. 144 00:11:00.159 --> 00:11:03.120 Still waiting on halfway stuff. You're not the only one, my friend. 145 00:11:03.240 --> 00:11:07.200 I've not received a shipping notice and a lot of people have already gotten their 146 00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:11.000 shipments. It's been very quick for some of these people. Partner labels, 147 00:11:11.080 --> 00:11:13.399 the brand new ones we're gonna be talking about this Thursday night, so plan 148 00:11:13.480 --> 00:11:20.720 on that being another big show on Thursday. But let's dive in to everything 149 00:11:20.759 --> 00:11:24.879 that was announced during the Vinegar Syndrome sale. Let me get my screen shared 150 00:11:26.440 --> 00:11:31.639 and this whole time. If you've got anything up that you want to ask, 151 00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:35.519 by all means ask, even if it's about the trip or California, 152 00:11:35.559 --> 00:11:39.399 the convention, anything crazy like that. If it's about any of the releases, 153 00:11:39.440 --> 00:11:43.080 go into it. That is fine by me. I'm gonna try to 154 00:11:43.120 --> 00:11:48.200 do one full week of announcements just like we normally would, and then save 155 00:11:48.320 --> 00:11:54.399 everything else from the following week which started last Friday, now to we're gonna 156 00:11:54.399 --> 00:11:58.960 save those for this coming Thursday night. Dustin says, I became halfways. 157 00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:03.480 It's very nice. I don't know if it's just me, but I feel 158 00:12:03.480 --> 00:12:07.600 like I've seen a lot more people than normal saying that they became a halfway 159 00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:11.159 sub this year, and I think that's a testament to how good of a 160 00:12:11.240 --> 00:12:13.840 year Vinegar Syndrome is having. It seems like a lot of people were not 161 00:12:15.879 --> 00:12:20.480 really stoked with the first half of twenty twenty one for Vinegar Syndrome, but 162 00:12:20.559 --> 00:12:26.200 this year has been a completely different feeling like they've got some amazing titles coming 163 00:12:26.200 --> 00:12:31.120 out, so I really think that they've done great. Eric got a shipping 164 00:12:31.159 --> 00:12:39.399 notice but just label created that stinks. Sartis has got a shipping notice of 165 00:12:39.480 --> 00:12:43.759 Vampier, which he ordered months ago. I just got in Vampire, But 166 00:12:43.120 --> 00:12:48.000 I'm going to be showing that to my patrons on one of our videos probably. 167 00:12:48.679 --> 00:12:50.960 I think that's gonna be on Wednesday, when I'm be doing a pickup 168 00:12:50.960 --> 00:12:54.639 stream with them, which I haven't announced yet. So hello, that's my 169 00:12:54.679 --> 00:12:56.960 secret announcement to all of them. I believe I'm going to be doing a 170 00:12:56.960 --> 00:13:00.480 pickup stream on Wednesday of everything that came in and everything that I got at 171 00:13:00.519 --> 00:13:03.000 the con which is not very much. I didn't buy a whole lot at 172 00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:07.919 the convention. Sadly, the whole trip was very expensive, so I did 173 00:13:07.919 --> 00:13:11.120 not have a giant budget of buying trinkets. Not to mention, my bag 174 00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:13.440 was very full when I got home, so that would have been rough. 175 00:13:15.799 --> 00:13:22.240 All right, Let's jump in to the Vinegar Syndrome sale and everything that got 176 00:13:22.279 --> 00:13:26.080 announced. So first up, we had the mystery titles. Now, this 177 00:13:26.159 --> 00:13:31.039 is the one I'd been alluding to for months. This is one that I 178 00:13:31.200 --> 00:13:35.080 kind of knew was coming, and I was not surprised at all, and 179 00:13:35.159 --> 00:13:37.240 this got announced. So this is Scared to Death from William Malone, who 180 00:13:37.279 --> 00:13:41.919 also did Creature. This is from nineteen eighty and this is the one that 181 00:13:41.919 --> 00:13:46.559 they were talking about the what was their exact hand I think it was Creature 182 00:13:46.600 --> 00:13:52.600 Feature in the California Sun, something like that. And this is coming with 183 00:13:52.840 --> 00:13:56.879 a two disc region free blue ray set, newly scanned and restored in four 184 00:13:58.000 --> 00:14:03.840 K from the sixteen millimeters commentary track with the writer, director and actor Bryce 185 00:14:03.960 --> 00:14:09.799 Kermit Eller and actress Diana Davidson Rise of the Sinnginer or I think that's how 186 00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:13.120 it's pronounced. Haven't heard it? In Ages, A brand new making of 187 00:14:13.159 --> 00:14:18.000 documentary featuring interviews with writer director William Alone, Bryce Kermit, Eller, Diana 188 00:14:18.080 --> 00:14:22.000 Davidson, the makeup supervisor, a effects artist, another actor, well, 189 00:14:22.080 --> 00:14:26.360 a few more actors and this again, this is the exact type of special 190 00:14:26.399 --> 00:14:31.279 feature that I adore. So I can't wait to have this in hand, 191 00:14:31.480 --> 00:14:35.159 this artists. Unfortunately I did not make it to the museum. This is 192 00:14:35.200 --> 00:14:41.000 how crazy that museum is in terms of busy level. You and I we 193 00:14:41.120 --> 00:14:46.000 spoke on Tuesday night, and Tuesday night it was booked out for every single 194 00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:50.879 time until the following Monday, so I was already going to be gone before 195 00:14:50.879 --> 00:14:54.480 I could even get tickets ordered. They I didn't think it was going to 196 00:14:54.519 --> 00:14:58.879 be that bad, but it was. It was so booked solid that I 197 00:15:00.120 --> 00:15:03.159 it was going to be late afternoon of the following Tuesday. So they had 198 00:15:03.200 --> 00:15:09.200 ticket spot for a full week block of time frames and they they are I 199 00:15:09.200 --> 00:15:13.600 think it was every thirty minutes that they do brand new times, so it's 200 00:15:13.639 --> 00:15:16.799 not like it was just a handful of open spots or anything. It is 201 00:15:16.679 --> 00:15:22.000 just that many people attending. The friend the patron from the channel that I 202 00:15:22.080 --> 00:15:26.360 met up with, he was able to go and he said it was just 203 00:15:26.399 --> 00:15:31.279 absolutely stupendous. He had tickets bought previously and he went. I believe he 204 00:15:31.360 --> 00:15:35.519 went on Friday and yeah, said it was magnificent. So shout out to 205 00:15:35.559 --> 00:15:39.480 John for that one. This is the front of the slip for Scared to 206 00:15:39.519 --> 00:15:45.720 Death. This is the back. Let's only show the front there, whoops. 207 00:15:46.559 --> 00:15:50.840 Next one, This is the other mystery title. This is a voyage 208 00:15:50.879 --> 00:15:54.039 of the Rock Aliens. Now, a lot of people did not seem to 209 00:15:54.120 --> 00:15:58.360 know much about this one, and I sadly am included. I've never seen 210 00:15:58.360 --> 00:16:03.799 this. However, this sounds amazingly cheesy. So yes, it does sound 211 00:16:03.840 --> 00:16:08.320 cheesy. It does sound like your classic vinegar syndrome. Like over hyped title. 212 00:16:08.399 --> 00:16:11.360 A lot of people were very excited for the mystery titles, and this 213 00:16:11.440 --> 00:16:15.440 is probably a slightly overhyped, but it seems like something I'm gonna love. 214 00:16:15.519 --> 00:16:18.320 The back of the slip here says the story of a guy, a girl 215 00:16:18.360 --> 00:16:23.679 and an alien and the one night they will always remember. And just going 216 00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:27.720 over this. This is from nineteen eighty four, a group of aliens and 217 00:16:27.799 --> 00:16:33.080 a guitar shaped spaceship are on the hunt to find the true source of rock 218 00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:38.720 and roll after spotting teenage Dedie and her boyfriend Frankie, each of whom are 219 00:16:38.799 --> 00:16:44.519 vying to become the top rocker in the small town of Spielberg Lol. The 220 00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:49.080 aliens land, only to set off an increasingly strange series of events and musical 221 00:16:49.120 --> 00:16:55.720 mayhem that threatens the very existence of the town itself. Amazing. So this 222 00:16:55.840 --> 00:17:00.480 stars Pia Zadora, who's in Hairspray and Butterfly and what might be the wildest 223 00:17:00.480 --> 00:17:06.000 and wackiest role of her career, James Fargo. James Fargo, who did 224 00:17:06.039 --> 00:17:10.799 every which way but loose did. Voyage of Rock Aliens is a nearly unclassifiable 225 00:17:11.160 --> 00:17:15.119 smorgas board made up of one part rock musical, one part sci fi insanity, 226 00:17:15.319 --> 00:17:22.400 and one part fifties kitch through an eighties glam lens. Now it does 227 00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:26.640 sound cheesy, I'm not gonna argue with that, but it also sounds amazing. 228 00:17:27.640 --> 00:17:32.880 This Yes, I cannot wait to see this brand new two K restoration 229 00:17:33.000 --> 00:17:37.599 jam, packed with comprehensive and newly produced extras, including embarking on a voyage 230 00:17:37.640 --> 00:17:42.640 The Making of an Alien Dance Rock Opera, an extended again making of documentary 231 00:17:42.640 --> 00:17:48.640 featuring interviews with the Michael Berryman from the Hills Have Eyes, executive producer Max 232 00:17:48.720 --> 00:17:53.920 Keller, producer Michelin Keller, wardrobe assistant don Zilee Abernathy, co screenwriter and 233 00:17:53.960 --> 00:18:00.680 co producer Charles hairston, special effects artist and miniatures artists. And that is 234 00:18:00.960 --> 00:18:04.880 great and then pulled off. Where are they now? Reuniting the band Rima 235 00:18:06.000 --> 00:18:08.880 in the twenty first century? An extended featurette with members of the band that 236 00:18:10.279 --> 00:18:17.119 is featured in the film. I mean, come on, doesn't that sound 237 00:18:17.119 --> 00:18:18.680 incredible? Yes? I was gonna say this very much sounds like a s 238 00:18:18.759 --> 00:18:26.839 artist title. It's got something sci fi related. He's got to see it. 239 00:18:26.920 --> 00:18:30.640 This looks great. I mean a guitar shaped spaceship. How do you? 240 00:18:30.720 --> 00:18:37.759 How do you not immediately click by? Now? Next up, we 241 00:18:37.880 --> 00:18:41.480 got two VSA's. The first one is arguably the bigger title based on who 242 00:18:41.519 --> 00:18:45.480 is in it. This is Red Surf from nineteen eighty nine. Really dig 243 00:18:45.559 --> 00:18:52.039 this artwork to nice front and back on this one. Remar, who is 244 00:18:52.039 --> 00:18:56.920 played by George Clooney, and Attila are best friends living in California. They 245 00:18:56.960 --> 00:19:00.000 spend their days surfing, partying, and running drugs for a ruth gangster named 246 00:19:00.079 --> 00:19:04.519 Calavera. After finding out his girlfriend is pregnant, Remar must choose between living 247 00:19:04.559 --> 00:19:07.519 life and the fast lane or settling down to take care of his family. 248 00:19:08.119 --> 00:19:11.880 Struggling to come to terms with his new future, Remar decides to set up 249 00:19:11.920 --> 00:19:17.640 one last big score before retiring from his life of crime. However, things 250 00:19:17.680 --> 00:19:22.279 get complicated for him and Attila when one of their crew betrays them. Very 251 00:19:22.319 --> 00:19:26.519 cliche storyline, now, but I mean this came out in eighty nine. 252 00:19:27.599 --> 00:19:32.200 I'm sure this was still pretty exciting. Now. Remar Attila have to figure 253 00:19:32.200 --> 00:19:36.759 out how to make it out alive before Calavera tracks them down and literally feeds 254 00:19:36.759 --> 00:19:41.160 them to the wolves. Overflowing with drugs, boozing guns, Redsurf is a 255 00:19:41.279 --> 00:19:47.079 violent look at nineteen eighty surfing culture in California. So I wasn't fully sold 256 00:19:47.200 --> 00:19:52.559 until I read that first line, and that sounds amazing, So I yeah, 257 00:19:52.599 --> 00:19:57.279 this sounds great. Featuring a surprise early performance from George Clooney as the 258 00:19:57.359 --> 00:20:00.640 drug addicted Remar and one of his first leading roles, as well as Strong 259 00:20:02.000 --> 00:20:06.880 Strong performances from Doug s event from Teenwolf, Eighties heart Throb, Dde Pfeiffer 260 00:20:06.920 --> 00:20:12.839 from Vamp and Kiss, singer bass player gene Fen Simmons. Vinegar Center Marchive 261 00:20:12.880 --> 00:20:15.720 is proud to present this piece of punk rock cinema for the first time on 262 00:20:15.759 --> 00:20:22.039 Blu ray, scanned and restored in four K from the OCN Now. This 263 00:20:22.079 --> 00:20:26.160 has a commentary track with the producer Greg H. Simms Putting People Together, 264 00:20:26.240 --> 00:20:30.720 an interview with Sims again, interview with Dedee Pheiffer, interview with casting director 265 00:20:30.839 --> 00:20:37.640 Ronnie Eskell, and unfortunately no sit down, comprehensive making up documentary featuring George 266 00:20:37.640 --> 00:20:41.680 Clooney or anything. How amazing would that have been if Vinegar Syndrome could get 267 00:20:41.720 --> 00:20:45.200 Clooney to sit down for new extras for Red Surf from nineteen eighty nine, 268 00:20:47.400 --> 00:20:52.000 that would have Yeah, that would have been amazing. But obviously that is 269 00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:59.359 probably a very expensive ask in a year when people are already complaining about prices. 270 00:20:59.480 --> 00:21:03.799 So Red from nineteen eighty nine is one of the two v essays. 271 00:21:04.079 --> 00:21:08.519 Thanks for streaming early, says buyer. And you know, I normally can't 272 00:21:08.880 --> 00:21:12.720 because my kids are at home and busy and keeping me on my toes. 273 00:21:14.079 --> 00:21:17.119 But they're at summer school for now, although they're probably about to get home, 274 00:21:17.200 --> 00:21:19.559 so trying to get this through as much as I can before they start 275 00:21:19.680 --> 00:21:26.359 terrorizing everything. It's ten thirty PM when I sign on on Thursdays. That's 276 00:21:26.640 --> 00:21:30.359 yeah, that's late. I agree, that makes perfect sense that you're not 277 00:21:30.400 --> 00:21:33.920 able to watch then. I honestly don't know how I'm able to stay up 278 00:21:33.960 --> 00:21:37.200 so late on some of these nights. The show on Tuesdays is even later. 279 00:21:37.240 --> 00:21:40.359 We don't start that one until nine here, which means it would be 280 00:21:40.359 --> 00:21:47.160 eleven where you are. Yeah, it gets very late. I made a 281 00:21:47.160 --> 00:21:49.480 cameo appearance in Chaos's Monster plusa video. I haven't even seen it yet. 282 00:21:49.559 --> 00:21:53.160 I've been busy all day today helping that family member moving in. Yeah, 283 00:21:53.240 --> 00:21:56.119 I met up with Chaos. It was a good time. We were supposed 284 00:21:56.119 --> 00:22:00.680 to go get some dinner but did not work out unfortunately. Yeah, I 285 00:22:00.720 --> 00:22:07.400 got to meet his whole family. The other vsay is the one that got 286 00:22:07.440 --> 00:22:12.000 a lot of complaints from people. This is Expect No Mercy featuring Jela Mary 287 00:22:12.319 --> 00:22:18.359 and Billy Blanks, which clearly they got some sort of package deal for the 288 00:22:18.680 --> 00:22:23.319 last few vsays. That they've put out, and I understand it to a 289 00:22:23.440 --> 00:22:29.519 point. But at the same time, you know, twenty how much I 290 00:22:29.559 --> 00:22:34.039 think this was twenty seven ninety nine during the sale something like that, twenty 291 00:22:34.039 --> 00:22:40.079 eight dollars for three different vssays featuring Jeel Mary and Billy Blanks. I feel 292 00:22:40.119 --> 00:22:44.920 like they could have made that a box set. And maybe I am maybe 293 00:22:44.960 --> 00:22:48.200 I'm being a little cynical there, but it seems like a lot of money 294 00:22:48.359 --> 00:22:52.160 for jelaw Mary and Billy Blank's titles. Now that being said, this one 295 00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:56.839 does sound better than the other two, I must admit. The plot here. 296 00:22:57.200 --> 00:23:00.480 This is from nineteen ninety five, by the way. Justin Vinier played 297 00:23:00.480 --> 00:23:04.720 by Billy Blanks is a highly trained and deadly agent for an elite police force 298 00:23:04.759 --> 00:23:10.599 known as the Federal Security Bureau. After a fellow undercover agent turns up dead, 299 00:23:10.920 --> 00:23:15.200 Justin is recruited to infiltrate a high tech martial arts training facility known as 300 00:23:15.240 --> 00:23:21.680 the Virtual Arts Academy, where students are trained in combat situations using virtual reality. 301 00:23:22.759 --> 00:23:26.200 Oh right. Once inside the facility, Justin is to make contact with 302 00:23:26.279 --> 00:23:30.119 another undercover agent named Eric played by Jeelaul Mary, who believes that the Academy 303 00:23:30.160 --> 00:23:34.359 is really a front for a team of hired assassins run by their power hungry 304 00:23:34.440 --> 00:23:38.640 leader Warbeck. With fear of their covers getting blown. Justin and Eric must 305 00:23:38.680 --> 00:23:44.200 face off with computer generated opponents and a series of simulated fights that have real 306 00:23:44.279 --> 00:23:48.160 life consequences. This is again a four K scan from the thirty five millimeter 307 00:23:48.240 --> 00:23:53.720 OCN region Free Coming, with a commentary track with joelaul Mary, another commentary 308 00:23:53.759 --> 00:23:59.559 track with the director Zale Dalen, an interview with Billy Blanks and jelall Mary, 309 00:24:00.119 --> 00:24:03.319 interview with a director, and then another interview with actor Anthony the Longest, 310 00:24:03.960 --> 00:24:11.440 and then Expect No Mercy the video game trailer, intro and playthrough for 311 00:24:11.559 --> 00:24:17.599 the Windows three point one video game based on the movie. Which is wild 312 00:24:17.720 --> 00:24:23.480 to me that this got a tie in video game. This is so odd 313 00:24:25.480 --> 00:24:30.200 that that is on there. I like it. I'm very curious in seeing 314 00:24:30.200 --> 00:24:33.799 it, especially for a Windows three point one game. Anthony says, fingers 315 00:24:33.799 --> 00:24:41.400 Cross vs. Releases Tibo in the future, Dear God. Thankfully, I 316 00:24:41.480 --> 00:24:45.160 think it is probably tied to jelal Mary instead of Billy Blanks, so unfortunately, 317 00:24:45.240 --> 00:24:51.079 I think the odds of Tabo ironically or unironically are probably not in our 318 00:24:51.119 --> 00:24:56.480 future. Jeff wants to hear more about Crimes of the Future, So, 319 00:24:57.440 --> 00:25:03.240 uh, Friday night, Yeah, Friday night, I went to Universal CityWalk 320 00:25:03.559 --> 00:25:07.319 with my friend Jeremy Long, the comedian that has been on the channel a 321 00:25:07.319 --> 00:25:11.319 couple times, and my other friend who watches Brian Michael vander Ahey, and 322 00:25:11.839 --> 00:25:18.240 we went to see Kronenberg's Crimes of the Future. Now full disclosure, I 323 00:25:18.960 --> 00:25:25.039 was exhausted from a very, very long day and I fell asleep for like 324 00:25:25.119 --> 00:25:29.119 fifteen minutes in the first half, maybe slightly a little more I was. 325 00:25:29.880 --> 00:25:33.079 It was a rough afternoon, but I was up for most of the film, 326 00:25:33.519 --> 00:25:41.960 and Crimes of the Future was. It was well made for the most 327 00:25:41.960 --> 00:25:48.119 part, but I think that this was probably my least favorite Kronenberg film. 328 00:25:49.279 --> 00:25:52.319 Did not like it. The effects in the film obviously well done. Like 329 00:25:52.680 --> 00:25:56.160 a lot of people are talking about Earman and I think I think I saw 330 00:25:56.279 --> 00:26:02.720 Neon as even selling a little like ear patch that you can put another ear 331 00:26:02.759 --> 00:26:07.759 on your body somewhere. But it was just I don't know what I was 332 00:26:07.759 --> 00:26:11.119 talking to the guys about afterwards. Is it felt like he had ideas for 333 00:26:11.200 --> 00:26:15.400 some really good special effects and made a movie around the special effects, and 334 00:26:15.440 --> 00:26:19.839 because of that, the story took a back seat and it just didn't work. 335 00:26:19.960 --> 00:26:23.319 And then the other side of it, I've never liked Vigo Mortenson, 336 00:26:23.559 --> 00:26:26.960 and for some reason, I had it in my head that the person's starring 337 00:26:27.000 --> 00:26:33.160 in Crimes of the Future was a British actor that wasn't Vigo Mortensen. And 338 00:26:33.000 --> 00:26:37.359 when I saw it was Vigo Mortenson in the film, I was rather disappointed. 339 00:26:37.880 --> 00:26:41.319 Kristen Stewart did very well when she was on screen, but she was 340 00:26:41.400 --> 00:26:45.279 not on screen enough. She only had like two or three very short scenes. 341 00:26:45.400 --> 00:26:52.279 Overall. Yes, I think that it was an interesting idea that ultimately 342 00:26:52.599 --> 00:26:57.200 failed to deliver a story that I was anywhere near interested in. And the 343 00:26:57.200 --> 00:27:02.920 second half that I saw wide awake and just flabbergasted with what I was seeing, 344 00:27:03.640 --> 00:27:08.799 was certainly not for me. It was just the film might may have 345 00:27:08.839 --> 00:27:11.839 a demographic, but I was not a part of it, that's for sure. 346 00:27:15.680 --> 00:27:18.720 Next up from Vininger Syndrome, we got a catalog slip cover for the 347 00:27:18.759 --> 00:27:26.559 Bees featuring some very prominent actor and actress on the front. Here I really 348 00:27:26.599 --> 00:27:30.359 dig the back of this slip with the bee on the camera obscuring part of 349 00:27:30.400 --> 00:27:34.400 it, but overall, the Bees, in my opinion, is not really 350 00:27:34.440 --> 00:27:41.279 top tier Vininger syndrome. It's more lower middle tier. It's an okay movie, 351 00:27:41.319 --> 00:27:44.440 but I'm glad we finally got a slip for it. And then we 352 00:27:44.519 --> 00:27:48.839 also got a slip for or I guess, a box set for Taboo for 353 00:27:49.079 --> 00:27:53.799 Taboo one, two, three, and four, which is in three different 354 00:27:53.799 --> 00:27:57.759 Blu ray cases. And this is an adult film box set, which is 355 00:27:57.880 --> 00:28:03.799 a kind of It is surprising that they released this for the halfway sale, 356 00:28:03.799 --> 00:28:07.039 which means they have a lot of other adult titles that are gonna be needing 357 00:28:07.039 --> 00:28:11.640 catalog slip covers eventually, so we may be seeing some of those during the 358 00:28:11.680 --> 00:28:15.720 Black Friday Sale this coming year, and then we'll probably see at least one 359 00:28:15.759 --> 00:28:22.160 more during the Valentine's Day sale if they have it again. The next one, 360 00:28:22.599 --> 00:28:27.839 there was another catalog slip. Did I miss it? Oh? I 361 00:28:27.920 --> 00:28:33.279 just didn't go far enough. Hello Hobgoblins. Now, this is one that 362 00:28:33.279 --> 00:28:37.680 people have been waiting for for a long time. Hobgoblins catalog slip. And 363 00:28:37.759 --> 00:28:41.000 I think this art is great. Unfortunately, the art is probably better than 364 00:28:41.000 --> 00:28:45.559 the film, but it's a fun film, and most people had this or 365 00:28:45.640 --> 00:28:49.119 at least wanted it, so I think, if anything, this will potentially 366 00:28:49.119 --> 00:28:53.240 get some people who had it on their wish list for eventually it probably got 367 00:28:53.279 --> 00:28:57.200 them to buy it. Hobgoblins is one that really didn't need any help being 368 00:28:57.200 --> 00:29:03.039 sold, but this art alone, we'll certainly move some copies. And then 369 00:29:03.240 --> 00:29:07.519 they released a couple of new shirts. This is the logo tea that they've 370 00:29:07.519 --> 00:29:11.440 had previously, and it's on this nice red color on black. I'm certainly 371 00:29:11.599 --> 00:29:15.559 very curious about how this is going to look actually worn and how much you're 372 00:29:15.559 --> 00:29:19.119 gonna be able to see the red because that red is very dark. I've 373 00:29:19.119 --> 00:29:25.039 been digging some of their color ways that have been popping more over the last 374 00:29:25.079 --> 00:29:27.119 few months. You know that the green and gold was really great for March, 375 00:29:27.440 --> 00:29:32.000 and then we had that really bright blue and pink shirt that was amazing. 376 00:29:32.599 --> 00:29:34.640 I do really dig this design, which they've used previously of a film 377 00:29:34.680 --> 00:29:40.960 reel. It looks very nice, very very nice. I can't wait to 378 00:29:41.000 --> 00:29:42.920 see what some of these look like. They released a New York Ninja shirt 379 00:29:42.960 --> 00:29:48.000 that is just the logo of the tea on gray, and then a Thriller 380 00:29:48.119 --> 00:29:55.920 shirt I was kind of surprised that this is the full design that they went 381 00:29:55.960 --> 00:30:00.319 through for a thriller. I expected a little more merch for that, entering 382 00:30:00.319 --> 00:30:03.759 it such a big title. Especially, I'm kind of surprised we didn't get 383 00:30:03.240 --> 00:30:07.359 a thriller eye patch with the Vinegar Syndrome logo on the eye patch. I 384 00:30:07.359 --> 00:30:12.119 think that would have been perfect. Couch says, I wish the Fun City 385 00:30:12.160 --> 00:30:15.160 shirt was black, not pink. It's a nice shirt, it's decent, 386 00:30:15.240 --> 00:30:19.319 but I kind of agree with you there. I think it would look a 387 00:30:19.359 --> 00:30:22.480 little bit better, maybe not black. I don't know. Maybe it's just 388 00:30:22.559 --> 00:30:26.039 me. I'm as I wear one right now, I'm very black tied out. 389 00:30:26.359 --> 00:30:32.720 I think that there's a lot of T shirts printed on black lately and 390 00:30:32.119 --> 00:30:40.920 more other diverse colors. Is a nice choice. I think. Let's see. 391 00:30:41.160 --> 00:30:45.839 Then we got a really interesting development, and I have seen a couple 392 00:30:45.799 --> 00:30:48.680 of people complain about the price on it, so I wanted to bring this 393 00:30:48.759 --> 00:30:56.000 up. They released New York Ninja and The Scary of Sixty first as thirty 394 00:30:56.000 --> 00:31:00.880 five millimeter film trailers. Now, sest thing thing about this is that if 395 00:31:00.920 --> 00:31:04.240 you look and I don't have the clearest picture of it, I took the 396 00:31:04.240 --> 00:31:07.559 first one that they have. Let me see if I can zoom in at 397 00:31:07.559 --> 00:31:12.039 all for you. There we go. So this says thirty five millimeter trailer 398 00:31:12.440 --> 00:31:18.640 one. They are giving catalog numbers to both of these thirty five milimeter trailers, 399 00:31:18.839 --> 00:31:22.400 so I imagine if those sold well, which it appeared that they did 400 00:31:22.440 --> 00:31:26.279 pretty well, that they may come out with some more. These are also 401 00:31:26.440 --> 00:31:32.720 printed on film that is not going to be as able to be damaged as 402 00:31:32.839 --> 00:31:37.519 other standard thirty five millimeter film. I can't remember the material that they were 403 00:31:37.559 --> 00:31:41.400 actually printing these on, but they look nice, nice little box that you 404 00:31:41.440 --> 00:31:44.000 can store on the shelf with the movies. If you happen to have a 405 00:31:44.039 --> 00:31:47.880 projector you can easily play this if you really want to go out of your 406 00:31:47.880 --> 00:31:51.880 way and do something very cool. If you have a theater that still plays 407 00:31:52.559 --> 00:31:56.279 film, a lot of those theaters will happily play some of your film if 408 00:31:56.279 --> 00:32:00.480 you come in at an off time, or you know, you rent out 409 00:32:00.480 --> 00:32:04.079 the theater for a little while. What you could do is rent it out 410 00:32:04.119 --> 00:32:07.759 for like a birthday, and a lot of the theaters have been doing like 411 00:32:07.759 --> 00:32:10.200 two hundred dollars and you get a whole theater for yourself and you get to 412 00:32:10.200 --> 00:32:14.200 pick the film. So if you got somewhere that can do that, you 413 00:32:14.240 --> 00:32:17.079 can probably go through and play your trailer or trailers if you happen to get 414 00:32:17.079 --> 00:32:21.119 both of them, and then choose a film for afterwards, and I bet 415 00:32:21.200 --> 00:32:25.519 they'd be willing to work with you, Sartis says, who has a thirty 416 00:32:25.519 --> 00:32:30.759 five millimeter projector at hand? I agree. I don't think that this is 417 00:32:30.799 --> 00:32:35.720 something for everybody. I don't think that this is a piece that they expect 418 00:32:35.720 --> 00:32:40.559 to be used widely. I think that this is one of the examples of 419 00:32:40.640 --> 00:32:45.880 people, Sorry, I think this is one of the examples of vinegar syndrome 420 00:32:46.440 --> 00:32:52.200 falling into the collector mentality. And I do understand that some people have brought 421 00:32:52.240 --> 00:32:57.880 that up about other aspects of vinegar syndrome. Now I don't always agree with 422 00:32:57.920 --> 00:33:00.319 their take on that, but with this one it certainly seems to be the 423 00:33:00.359 --> 00:33:05.279 case. I don't think that's necessarily a negative thing. If you want to 424 00:33:05.279 --> 00:33:07.839 buy it, buy it. If not, speak with your dollars and don't 425 00:33:07.839 --> 00:33:13.079 buy it, and they don't do it anymore. But there are some people 426 00:33:13.079 --> 00:33:16.960 that buy literally everything that vinegar centrome puts out, so I don't remember if 427 00:33:16.960 --> 00:33:23.039 these sold out before the end of the sale, but yeah, these look 428 00:33:23.200 --> 00:33:27.640 nice, at least in the hand. It's something like I don't have a 429 00:33:27.720 --> 00:33:32.000 projector, and I think they did a hundred of each of these, and 430 00:33:32.920 --> 00:33:37.880 you know, maybe there are one hundred people that have thirty five millimeter projectors 431 00:33:37.880 --> 00:33:43.640 that they still use, maybe some more, who knows. Next item, 432 00:33:43.920 --> 00:33:47.559 we finally got a view master reel for Flesh for Frankenstein. Now, last 433 00:33:47.759 --> 00:33:52.079 November I brought up where is the view master reel for Flesh for Frankenstein. 434 00:33:52.599 --> 00:33:57.039 They had previously done one of those for the other three D title, and 435 00:33:57.079 --> 00:34:00.279 that was one of the reasons that they said they were doing it. Glad 436 00:34:00.319 --> 00:34:02.359 that they did it for this one. It just feels like it's late. 437 00:34:02.680 --> 00:34:07.440 They should have done it back in November. And then they started putting out 438 00:34:07.480 --> 00:34:12.280 some enamel pins, which look really nice. I love enamel pins. I've 439 00:34:12.320 --> 00:34:15.920 got hundreds of them myself. Yeah, these look really great, really good 440 00:34:15.960 --> 00:34:21.400 designs, especially this one. We got a drive in collection set of pins. 441 00:34:22.920 --> 00:34:25.920 A lot of people again complained about the prices on the pins, but 442 00:34:27.519 --> 00:34:31.719 good enamel pins are very expensive. They're usually twelve to fifteen dollars ish and 443 00:34:31.960 --> 00:34:38.960 these were seemingly properly priced. It's about all I could really offer for those. 444 00:34:42.519 --> 00:34:46.280 Then we got a lot of hints for the second half of twenty twenty 445 00:34:46.280 --> 00:34:50.440 two, which, again, as I just mentioned, a lot of people 446 00:34:50.880 --> 00:34:53.480 have subscribed to Vinegar Syndrome for the second half, So let's go through some 447 00:34:53.519 --> 00:34:58.400 of these and the first half. Sorry, if the first half of twenty 448 00:34:58.440 --> 00:35:00.400 twenty two is mind blowing, wait till you see what else is in store 449 00:35:00.840 --> 00:35:05.800 this July. So we already have our entire package for July. Here's what 450 00:35:05.840 --> 00:35:10.039 it is. We are proudly presenting Michael and Roberta. Finley's legendary Bigfoot horror 451 00:35:10.159 --> 00:35:15.760 Shriek of the Mutilated on Blu Ray for the first time and fully uncensored from 452 00:35:15.800 --> 00:35:20.000 a new four K restoration of its long lost OCN. Plus, we're dipping 453 00:35:20.000 --> 00:35:23.199 our toes into Jess Franco's vast filmography with the Blu Ray debut of the Red 454 00:35:23.199 --> 00:35:30.000 Lips films Kiss Me Monster and Two Undercover Angels, both exclusively restored from their 455 00:35:30.000 --> 00:35:32.760 thirty five millimeter negatives, And around out the month, we're bringing the Cynthia 456 00:35:32.840 --> 00:35:37.239 Rothrock classic Riding Wrongs to Blu Ray, presented in multiple cuts. It's the 457 00:35:37.280 --> 00:35:42.960 first of several Hong Kong genre picks we have in store for later this year. 458 00:35:43.719 --> 00:35:46.920 I know a friend of the channel Foo for Thought or Sean was very 459 00:35:46.920 --> 00:35:52.400 excited for that one. He expected that during the halfway sale. I did 460 00:35:52.440 --> 00:36:00.400 not expect that one yet Planet Monosa. Did I go over the seven titles 461 00:36:00.440 --> 00:36:05.719 yet? Not yet? We are We are still behind, very behind. 462 00:36:05.800 --> 00:36:09.400 Actually this is still from two thursdays ago. So we will get to some 463 00:36:09.440 --> 00:36:14.920 of the seven titles, promise. And I actually have the Severn site ups 464 00:36:14.920 --> 00:36:17.000 so that we can go over some of the sale titles. Because unfortunately, 465 00:36:17.639 --> 00:36:22.719 even though all of May was dedicated to vinegar syndrome, my time has been 466 00:36:22.760 --> 00:36:27.519 shorter than expected, and some of the things that I planned for Severn are 467 00:36:27.599 --> 00:36:30.440 probably not going to pan out for this month, and I feel really bad. 468 00:36:30.800 --> 00:36:34.800 But I do plan on getting some seven things out at least before the 469 00:36:34.840 --> 00:36:37.199 sale, but it's coming up this week, so I'm gonna have to be 470 00:36:37.280 --> 00:36:40.440 quick, that's for sure. What's going on, Sam, How you doing? 471 00:36:42.920 --> 00:36:45.119 Jeff says that pen is more expensive than gas by a little oh Man, 472 00:36:45.920 --> 00:36:52.039 speaking of gas in California is wild. That was one of the first 473 00:36:52.039 --> 00:36:55.679 pictures I took just because I could not believe it. Here in here in 474 00:36:55.760 --> 00:37:00.599 Kansas City, It's it's bad, but it's not California bad. Still just 475 00:37:00.719 --> 00:37:05.039 under five dollars a gallon here, and I saw a price in California that 476 00:37:05.039 --> 00:37:09.119 started with the seven, and I could not believe that at all. Okay, 477 00:37:09.280 --> 00:37:15.239 so the big thing they just said there are several several Hong Kong genre 478 00:37:15.280 --> 00:37:21.360 picks in store for later this year that is incredibly exciting to me. Then, 479 00:37:21.760 --> 00:37:24.719 our fifth Forgotten Jolly set will be unveiled in August, along with the 480 00:37:24.760 --> 00:37:31.000 four k uhd debut of a studio owned seventies drive in horror classic. In 481 00:37:31.079 --> 00:37:36.760 September, we'll be unveiling the world four k uhd debut of an iconic seventies 482 00:37:36.760 --> 00:37:40.119 horror film, along with world blu ray debuts of a couple eighties deep cuts. 483 00:37:40.599 --> 00:37:45.320 And then in October we're going all out and presenting Toby Hooper's Texas Chainsawmascar 484 00:37:45.400 --> 00:37:53.039 Part two on four K that one says, alongside a diverse trio of horror 485 00:37:53.119 --> 00:37:59.360 gems, including euroclassics from the seventies and eighties, and another major four K 486 00:37:59.480 --> 00:38:05.719 upgrade which I mean that is gonna be a huge October. And if they 487 00:38:05.719 --> 00:38:12.519 are putting Texas Chainsawn Maascer two in four K in October, November is gonna 488 00:38:12.519 --> 00:38:19.679 be massive, massive this year, then it says Finally, in November, 489 00:38:19.719 --> 00:38:24.239 we're working on another colossal collection of horror and exploitation classics, including our second 490 00:38:24.320 --> 00:38:30.639 installment in the Homegrown Horror series, which we'll have Moonstalker, which was previously 491 00:38:30.679 --> 00:38:35.320 released by Code rett I believe, and two other deep cut slashers, along 492 00:38:35.360 --> 00:38:39.719 with four other major gets, among them several Blu Ray and four K debuts. 493 00:38:40.199 --> 00:38:46.280 It's sure to be a whirlwind of cinematic to lights. Now. If 494 00:38:46.280 --> 00:38:50.639 this does not get you excited for the second half of the year, there 495 00:38:50.719 --> 00:38:54.480 is not much that can because the amount of things that they are putting out 496 00:38:54.880 --> 00:39:00.360 is absolutely ridiculous. And that's why I fully stand by the subscription. If 497 00:39:00.440 --> 00:39:04.239 I know it's a lot of money, I know that it's a lot to 498 00:39:04.280 --> 00:39:07.760 pop down at once, but if you can swing it, it is such 499 00:39:07.960 --> 00:39:13.639 a worthwhile time to literally get everything at the sale price when it's released, 500 00:39:13.760 --> 00:39:17.679 and even cheaper technically because you're getting box sets for the same price of a 501 00:39:17.760 --> 00:39:22.440 regular Blu Ray release, and it has been worth it for every year that 502 00:39:22.480 --> 00:39:25.719 I've done it, and I just can't wait to see and the growth that 503 00:39:25.719 --> 00:39:30.880 they've had this year. It does sort of scare me for what the subscription 504 00:39:30.039 --> 00:39:36.840 might cost for twenty twenty three, but again, the growth has been monumental. 505 00:39:36.960 --> 00:39:39.280 The type I mean, they're putting out Texas Chainsaw Mask for two in 506 00:39:39.440 --> 00:39:45.360 four K, that is huge plus everything else. But obviously a Tooby Hooper 507 00:39:45.360 --> 00:39:52.119 film like that that took some money to license. I guarantee Sarta says, 508 00:39:52.119 --> 00:39:55.519 I'd rather spend that money in partner titles, and this is the only thing 509 00:39:55.599 --> 00:40:00.000 that I can't really argue with. I fully agree. And the hard part 510 00:40:00.239 --> 00:40:04.880 is to get the partner titles. The titles. The cheapest is to be 511 00:40:04.920 --> 00:40:09.239 a subscriber. So obviously, if you're only gonna get partner titles, it 512 00:40:09.239 --> 00:40:13.559 doesn't make any sense to be a subscriber and get that discount because you're still 513 00:40:13.559 --> 00:40:16.519 gonna be spending more on the subscription than you would saving. But it really 514 00:40:16.639 --> 00:40:22.719 is nice to get everything at the even the partner labels literally sale price the 515 00:40:22.800 --> 00:40:30.440 day that it's announced. It's fantastic. Oh and the partner label Slate by 516 00:40:30.480 --> 00:40:37.440 the way, incredible, completely incredible. They have been as exciting for me 517 00:40:38.239 --> 00:40:43.599 as Vinegar Syndrome, and some months even more so. And that's kind of 518 00:40:43.639 --> 00:40:46.199 hard to do with lately, with how much Vinegar Syndrome is pumping out of 519 00:40:46.400 --> 00:40:52.719 just incredible, incredible titles. Let's see, I think that's all Vinegar Syndrome. 520 00:40:52.800 --> 00:40:57.159 It is so imprint head a sale, it's over, so we're gonna 521 00:40:57.159 --> 00:41:01.039 skip right over it. Arrow put out Flatliners in four K. This is 522 00:41:01.039 --> 00:41:07.119 coming August second, and this is no surprise. They had the most obvious 523 00:41:07.159 --> 00:41:10.400 clue in the world for this one, and I yeah, pretty much everybody 524 00:41:10.480 --> 00:41:15.840 knew that they were doing. This is a movie that is no secret. 525 00:41:15.920 --> 00:41:19.440 We knew that this was coming last year because somebody got a postcard on one 526 00:41:19.440 --> 00:41:22.880 of their releases. This is another Kevin Bacon film, so, but also 527 00:41:23.000 --> 00:41:29.559 Julia roberts Key for Sutherland gonna be a decent looking release. It's not a 528 00:41:29.599 --> 00:41:32.280 title that I'm going to be clamoring for, sadly. It looks good, 529 00:41:32.880 --> 00:41:38.920 but it's not mind blowing good for me. And they are also putting out 530 00:41:39.400 --> 00:41:45.280 the Running Out of Time one and two set that we had heard was going 531 00:41:45.320 --> 00:41:47.679 to be getting a US release, So this is the US and Canadian release 532 00:41:47.719 --> 00:41:52.320 of this, since Eureka is putting it out in the UK. This is 533 00:41:52.400 --> 00:41:57.360 from nineteen ninety nine in two thousand and one, and there is also an 534 00:41:57.400 --> 00:42:02.960 Aerosite exclusive version which is here with this very I think really good artwork. 535 00:42:04.000 --> 00:42:08.159 Slipcover on this is I'm assuming the original poster art and this release looks great, 536 00:42:08.559 --> 00:42:14.440 although it looks exactly the same as the Eureka release. So it's just 537 00:42:14.440 --> 00:42:17.000 a matter of what region you're in and who you want to buy from. 538 00:42:19.400 --> 00:42:25.280 At least we have options. Now that is it for Arrow. You'll see 539 00:42:25.280 --> 00:42:31.320 we had two titles. That is it for August. Now. Arrow had 540 00:42:31.360 --> 00:42:37.880 a reason for that, and unfortunately they had to share that via Twitter. 541 00:42:38.280 --> 00:42:44.119 Well I guess they really didn't. One of their employees, James Flower, 542 00:42:44.320 --> 00:42:46.880 shared a thread on Twitter and I'm gonna share that with you. But one 543 00:42:46.880 --> 00:42:53.239 of the other things that happened that same day was Franz Semioni from Arrow announced 544 00:42:53.239 --> 00:42:58.039 that he was stepping down. He left Arrow and he is now starting his 545 00:42:58.119 --> 00:43:00.920 own venture, which I believe is called the Radiance Films. Let me make 546 00:43:00.920 --> 00:43:05.360 sure I got that right. Radiance Films, And now they are going to 547 00:43:05.400 --> 00:43:08.360 be doing the Yes, that's what it's called is Radiance Films. They're going 548 00:43:08.440 --> 00:43:14.039 to be doing very arrowesque type of work. They're going to be distributing films. 549 00:43:14.400 --> 00:43:15.920 They are going to be putting out as many releases as they can. 550 00:43:15.960 --> 00:43:20.199 They've got some stuff coming. They've already anound some of the people they're working 551 00:43:20.239 --> 00:43:24.000 with, and it all sounds great. I do wish Fran all the luck 552 00:43:24.079 --> 00:43:28.599 in the world, and I think he's going to do amazing because he's got 553 00:43:28.679 --> 00:43:32.199 the right frame of mind. But speaking of the right frame of mind, 554 00:43:32.280 --> 00:43:36.920 a lot of people have complained about replacement discs over the last year or two, 555 00:43:37.440 --> 00:43:40.840 and James Flower shared this thread so that he could discuss them. So 556 00:43:42.400 --> 00:43:45.199 let's go over this a little bit. He says. Hello, So you 557 00:43:45.280 --> 00:43:49.519 might be wondering why this month's Aero video announcements are looking much slimmer than usual. 558 00:43:50.159 --> 00:43:52.199 Don't worry. It's not a signal that things are going down the tubes 559 00:43:52.199 --> 00:43:55.559 at Arrow Headquarters. Quite the opposite. I'm going to zoom this in just 560 00:43:55.559 --> 00:44:00.239 so you can see it a little clear, he says. As you may 561 00:44:00.239 --> 00:44:07.079 be aware, we've had a few QC issues recently that have necessitated replacement programs, 562 00:44:07.400 --> 00:44:10.519 as well as some embarrassing errors on our packaging. The packaging error that 563 00:44:10.559 --> 00:44:15.280 he's talking about was the art that looked just like the Criterion release A Man 564 00:44:15.320 --> 00:44:19.719 on a Wire, and they fixed that. There's a brand new slip coming 565 00:44:19.719 --> 00:44:23.559 for that totally new artwork. It's not something that is stuck out there. 566 00:44:23.679 --> 00:44:27.880 It is just they're fixing it. Once it was brought to their attention, 567 00:44:28.000 --> 00:44:31.880 they fixed it immediately. This has not gone without note at arrowheadquarters, and 568 00:44:31.880 --> 00:44:36.599 we've been discussing ways to prevent it in the future. While the majority of 569 00:44:36.639 --> 00:44:40.000 these issues have been unanticipated and we've acted as quickly as possible to correct them, 570 00:44:40.320 --> 00:44:45.039 we are well aware that it only takes a handful of mistakes to endanger 571 00:44:45.119 --> 00:44:52.039 some fans confidence in US, especially when replacement programs are involved. Which I 572 00:44:52.039 --> 00:44:54.920 don't know. Maybe I'm too much of an optimist on this side, but 573 00:44:55.039 --> 00:45:00.400 I don't see how this really should affect people as much as it has. 574 00:45:00.400 --> 00:45:05.960 There is a slight inconvenience obviously with getting a replacement disc, but unless you 575 00:45:05.960 --> 00:45:08.760 were planning on watching that on day one, they're not charging you anything. 576 00:45:08.920 --> 00:45:13.960 You just wait for another piece of mail. It's just another replacement program. 577 00:45:14.000 --> 00:45:16.239 It's not super big of a deal. It's not like they're telling you, 578 00:45:16.480 --> 00:45:19.719 we know there's AIRRS and you just have to deal with this, so it's 579 00:45:19.719 --> 00:45:22.920 false advertising or something. Then he says, with that in mind, we've 580 00:45:22.920 --> 00:45:29.400 decided to only release two titles each in August and September in order to discuss 581 00:45:29.440 --> 00:45:32.599 and implement an even more rigorous QC process, as well as giving us the 582 00:45:32.639 --> 00:45:37.480 space to finish work on some especially demanding projects. Hello Shoscope Volume two. 583 00:45:38.039 --> 00:45:43.559 So that answers a few questions there. Some people have been asking why are 584 00:45:43.559 --> 00:45:46.480 they not doing more for QC. They are now this is something that they 585 00:45:46.559 --> 00:45:51.199 are trying to do to make sure that they are not doing this again and 586 00:45:51.239 --> 00:45:53.840 again and again, which has been a problem. Obviously. The other question 587 00:45:53.920 --> 00:45:58.639 people have been asking where is Shoscope Volume two? But it turns out they 588 00:45:59.119 --> 00:46:02.199 just weren't ready for it. They were trying to They were probably trying to 589 00:46:02.239 --> 00:46:06.199 rush it a little bit, but with all of the mistakes, they realized 590 00:46:06.199 --> 00:46:08.480 they should not be rushing it. So they're not going to be putting that 591 00:46:08.519 --> 00:46:13.119 out when they had expected, which I believe was June, and we're in 592 00:46:13.199 --> 00:46:17.519 June now, So that was on the hints that was put out last December 593 00:46:17.519 --> 00:46:22.119 for this year, so obviously that's not happening in June, but we should 594 00:46:22.119 --> 00:46:24.159 be getting it probably by the end of the year. I'm assuming it'll probably 595 00:46:24.159 --> 00:46:31.239 be another December release. Then he goes on to say this circuit breaker will 596 00:46:31.239 --> 00:46:37.519 also give us the opportunity to restructure the team following some sad departures like Franz 597 00:46:37.519 --> 00:46:40.599 Simioni that I just talked about. With these aims in mind, we're also 598 00:46:40.679 --> 00:46:45.320 on the lookout for QC freelancers. Please send your cvs to infoderofilms dot co 599 00:46:45.440 --> 00:46:51.079 dot uk to be considered. This was actually a really cool thing for me 600 00:46:51.159 --> 00:46:54.519 to see. He was willing to point out there that there is a lot 601 00:46:54.519 --> 00:46:59.800 of talent in the community that likes these pieces that they're putting out, and 602 00:47:00.119 --> 00:47:02.880 they would be willing to pay people to q see their work. That is 603 00:47:04.840 --> 00:47:07.199 that's big of them to be able to say it like this, So I 604 00:47:07.320 --> 00:47:12.280 liked that. Jeff says, I can be a tad optimistic. Unfortunately, 605 00:47:12.320 --> 00:47:20.039 you are very correct. My dog is ye happen at somebody allowed. Will 606 00:47:20.079 --> 00:47:23.679 this mean that we'll promise that there will never be any mistakes or replacement programs. 607 00:47:23.679 --> 00:47:28.679 Ever, again, of course not, and they shouldn't do so I'm 608 00:47:28.719 --> 00:47:31.199 glad that they did it. Sometimes these things are truly beyond our control, 609 00:47:31.280 --> 00:47:36.440 but we recognize that there are weaknesses in our current workflow and are doing what 610 00:47:36.480 --> 00:47:38.800 we can to fix this. That's probably the best thing they could say about 611 00:47:38.840 --> 00:47:44.360 it. We hope this goes some way to repairing any damage to our reputation 612 00:47:44.519 --> 00:47:47.760 and customer goodwill. We care very deeply about our releases, providing the best 613 00:47:47.800 --> 00:47:52.119 experience from top to bottom, and take it seriously. When we fall short 614 00:47:52.159 --> 00:47:55.599 of this aim, we'll be back to our usual size schedule in October, 615 00:47:55.639 --> 00:48:00.400 which work is already well underway on the coming year should be our most exciting 616 00:48:00.440 --> 00:48:02.360 yet. I mean they kind of had to say that, of course, 617 00:48:02.639 --> 00:48:07.000 otherwise people are gonna walk away anyways with something to please everyone, including some 618 00:48:07.039 --> 00:48:13.400 of our most requested titles. And then he included a hell raiser gift, 619 00:48:13.679 --> 00:48:17.239 which don't know if that was meant as a clue, but some people definitely 620 00:48:17.239 --> 00:48:25.760 took it as a clue, and that is all that he said. Now, 621 00:48:30.079 --> 00:48:32.119 So yeah, I feel good about this, but at the same time, 622 00:48:36.519 --> 00:48:39.039 I hate that they feel led to say something like this. It does 623 00:48:39.079 --> 00:48:44.079 show that we have enough people in the community hounding them, saying things that 624 00:48:44.119 --> 00:48:49.400 are truly very, very negative to lead to something like this. I'm willing 625 00:48:49.400 --> 00:48:52.039 to bet most people watching this are probably not those types of people, So 626 00:48:52.440 --> 00:48:58.000 thank you for not being that type of person. But it does suck that 627 00:48:58.039 --> 00:49:04.400 we have other people associated that love physical media that can be that sort of 628 00:49:05.159 --> 00:49:12.239 vocal and not great about it. So I don't know what I'm going there. 629 00:49:13.320 --> 00:49:20.559 I do think that they are looking to have a very good next eighteen 630 00:49:20.599 --> 00:49:24.000 months, and I first has take my eyes open. I'm a QC for 631 00:49:24.000 --> 00:49:30.559 free. While I agree they were looking for some very specific pieces of experience 632 00:49:30.920 --> 00:49:36.800 that you could point out, like actual QC that you are either familiar with 633 00:49:37.079 --> 00:49:40.840 or you know the equipment that you use, the way that you could give 634 00:49:40.960 --> 00:49:46.079 very technical information. So I think that it's far above my capabilities. I 635 00:49:46.519 --> 00:49:51.039 can look at a screen and say this looks very good. That's about all 636 00:49:51.079 --> 00:49:53.280 that I can do. I can say this four K looks better than that 637 00:49:53.320 --> 00:49:58.079 four K, but in the grand scheme, it doesn't mean a whole whole 638 00:49:58.159 --> 00:50:02.639 lot. That being said, I do think that they are well on their 639 00:50:02.639 --> 00:50:08.800 way to fixing some of this, and I sincerely hope that they really overcome 640 00:50:08.840 --> 00:50:14.639 it and come back stronger than ever. Now that being said, I do 641 00:50:14.679 --> 00:50:16.719 think there is a big elephant in the room, and that is the fact 642 00:50:16.719 --> 00:50:22.239 that they were still majority of their shares bought by the Hut Group, and 643 00:50:22.280 --> 00:50:25.519 I think that that alone has caused a lot of people to lose trust in 644 00:50:25.639 --> 00:50:30.440 Errow Video. And they can't fix that because the Hut Group's not going to 645 00:50:30.519 --> 00:50:36.440 sell them now. Of course, they are either making them enough money or 646 00:50:36.559 --> 00:50:38.360 they think that turning this around is going to be a big enough deal for 647 00:50:38.400 --> 00:50:43.039 them that they will make enough money. And yeah, they're not going to 648 00:50:43.079 --> 00:50:47.920 invest into the infrastructure of merchandising on the back end using the same manufacturing process 649 00:50:49.280 --> 00:50:54.679 and then get rid of it. So I completely understand why they wouldn't. 650 00:50:54.920 --> 00:51:00.440 So that's about That's about where we're at. So let's get back to sharing 651 00:51:00.719 --> 00:51:07.199 the announcements. Any questions about the Arrow, you know, comments or anything 652 00:51:07.199 --> 00:51:09.119 like that, let me know. But yes, for two months, we 653 00:51:09.199 --> 00:51:15.000 are only getting those those two titles. And that's again, I don't think 654 00:51:15.000 --> 00:51:19.760 it's a bad thing at all. I don't think it's something that anybody should 655 00:51:19.760 --> 00:51:23.559 be upset about I think that it is gonna do well for them. I 656 00:51:24.039 --> 00:51:30.519 think that they are probably going to come out of this looking better to a 657 00:51:30.519 --> 00:51:32.800 lot of people. And clearly there's been some people that have lost a lot 658 00:51:32.840 --> 00:51:42.000 of faith in them. So we shall see. John. John is here, 659 00:51:42.039 --> 00:51:43.679 just popping in to say, Hi, I'm glad to see you back 660 00:51:43.719 --> 00:51:45.679 in business. I had to be man, it's been too long. Thanks 661 00:51:45.719 --> 00:51:51.639 for spending time with me again. In la Jeff says, would Criterion have 662 00:51:51.639 --> 00:52:00.320 addressed their QC issues and what seemed a transparent manner? I don't. This 663 00:52:00.360 --> 00:52:02.280 is where the argument is going to become that a lot of these labels are 664 00:52:02.280 --> 00:52:07.360 facing these things, and that's why part of me doesn't think that this is 665 00:52:07.559 --> 00:52:12.480 really all Arrow's fault. Behind the scenes, I still think that the pandemic 666 00:52:12.519 --> 00:52:17.519 has a large bit of of the pandemic probably still has a large bit of 667 00:52:17.559 --> 00:52:23.199 an effect here because they can't test everything from home on every system, so 668 00:52:23.280 --> 00:52:29.159 it makes it a little more difficult to put out titles when you're working with 669 00:52:29.599 --> 00:52:34.239 you know, your acquisitions team based in one state, your manufacturing team maybe 670 00:52:34.239 --> 00:52:38.480 based in another country, your employees working on marketing in one area, and 671 00:52:38.599 --> 00:52:43.480 people that are getting these in and putting all these things together and testing them. 672 00:52:44.119 --> 00:52:46.239 It's hard when they only have one system at home and they you know, 673 00:52:46.440 --> 00:52:50.880 maybe they're not as technical, so maybe they should be having different people 674 00:52:50.960 --> 00:52:53.719 do that. But there are some of these items that were problems, like 675 00:52:54.679 --> 00:53:00.639 the al Adamson disk that was released with the original set, well not the 676 00:53:00.679 --> 00:53:04.280 original set because we only printed once. So the disc that was presented with 677 00:53:04.400 --> 00:53:07.559 that set for I think it was Disc eight. I want to say it 678 00:53:07.719 --> 00:53:12.880 just plaine didn't work. You put it in your player and it did nothing. 679 00:53:13.320 --> 00:53:15.840 It didn't run, it didn't do anything. That's not Severn's fault. 680 00:53:16.159 --> 00:53:22.360 Whoever manufactured that which for them at the time it was cav They either didn't 681 00:53:22.400 --> 00:53:25.000 test that disc, they put a different file on the disc than they were 682 00:53:25.000 --> 00:53:30.119 supposed to, or something happened. But Severn themselves they didn't look at that 683 00:53:30.159 --> 00:53:35.280 disc and say yep, good to go. Something happened there. So that 684 00:53:35.400 --> 00:53:40.000 is still happening on a lot of these There are other things that are maybe 685 00:53:40.039 --> 00:53:47.440 more egregious, like what title was it. There's an Errow title recently that 686 00:53:47.559 --> 00:53:53.880 had a bonus feature that was listed on the back of the case, and 687 00:53:53.960 --> 00:53:57.920 when you go to the disc itself. It was not there. However, 688 00:53:58.280 --> 00:54:00.440 if your player had a search function, you could still find it because it 689 00:54:00.519 --> 00:54:04.719 is on the desk. It's our disc. It's just not presented, which 690 00:54:04.760 --> 00:54:07.039 is an odd one, and you would think that that's something they would look 691 00:54:07.079 --> 00:54:08.719 for. So it's gonna be a toss up on some of these, of 692 00:54:08.760 --> 00:54:16.639 course. Anyways, that is aero. Let's go to the next one. 693 00:54:17.400 --> 00:54:22.559 This is Keno Lorber releasing another Chuck Norris film, A Force of One. 694 00:54:25.199 --> 00:54:31.199 This is from nineteen seventy nine Chuck Norris Brandy two K master new audio commentary 695 00:54:31.199 --> 00:54:38.119 by action film historians Brandon Bentley and Mike Leader. And I don't really love 696 00:54:38.199 --> 00:54:43.320 Chuck Norris. I know a lot of people do. I yeah, don't 697 00:54:43.360 --> 00:54:45.079 really care too much about this one. If anybody has any opinions, please 698 00:54:45.119 --> 00:54:49.760 share them in the comments. Jeff says they addressed it, though not all 699 00:54:49.800 --> 00:54:52.079 labels can do, and Will agreed. I mean, Keino is on the 700 00:54:52.119 --> 00:54:55.840 screen now. They have royally messed up some QCY things in the past, 701 00:54:55.920 --> 00:55:00.199 like when bring Me the head of Alfredo Garcia came out and people responded and 702 00:55:00.239 --> 00:55:04.880 said, this is not a brand new four K remaster. This is the 703 00:55:05.000 --> 00:55:08.239 old Master and they said, nuhuh, nope, this is what you're getting. 704 00:55:08.760 --> 00:55:12.480 And at first they denied it and said that's all we're going to do, 705 00:55:13.119 --> 00:55:15.119 and then they were caught. Essentially enough people complained and they had to 706 00:55:15.159 --> 00:55:19.400 replace it. So yeah, it can be a good thing to do. 707 00:55:19.559 --> 00:55:27.199 I completely agree, Jeff. Next one, we got an exclusive for Screen 708 00:55:27.280 --> 00:55:30.159 Factory, which is an odd one to me. This is the ninth configuration. 709 00:55:31.000 --> 00:55:36.280 And speaking of replacements, the spine on this one is actually misspelled and 710 00:55:36.320 --> 00:55:43.480 it says the ninth coin figuration. Of course, couch. I'm sorry. 711 00:55:42.920 --> 00:55:46.280 If this is the straw that makes you leave, I apologize. I really 712 00:55:46.360 --> 00:55:50.519 don't like Invasion USA. I don't know what it is. I can't grab 713 00:55:50.519 --> 00:55:53.400 on to Chuck Norris. I don't like John Wayne. I don't like a 714 00:55:53.440 --> 00:55:58.840 couple of the real big ones, even Clint Eastwood. I'm cold on a 715 00:55:58.880 --> 00:56:01.000 lot of Clint Eastwood films. A couple of the big ones are great, 716 00:56:01.480 --> 00:56:07.880 obviously, but yeah, I don't know what it is. So this exclusive 717 00:56:07.039 --> 00:56:10.400 is fifteen hundred units. This is done by William Peter Bladdie, who did 718 00:56:10.400 --> 00:56:16.360 The Exorcist and Exorcist three. Of course, this one I am kind of 719 00:56:16.360 --> 00:56:21.159 confused why this was an exclusive release. It really should not have been. 720 00:56:21.280 --> 00:56:24.920 This is this probably could have been just a standard release and not been a 721 00:56:24.920 --> 00:56:31.840 collector's edition and been great. The ninth configuration is a big film. But 722 00:56:32.000 --> 00:56:37.360 then they have actual features here, new two K scan of the negative, 723 00:56:37.360 --> 00:56:42.679 audio commentary by William Peter Bladdie, interview with William Peter Bladdie, Confessions of 724 00:56:42.760 --> 00:56:46.480 Kine interview with Stacy Keach. I don't know why all of a sudden, 725 00:56:46.519 --> 00:56:51.000 my throat is making me want to cough. All kinds of interviews on here, 726 00:56:51.159 --> 00:56:53.119 and this really had to be an exclusive. I mean, none of 727 00:56:53.119 --> 00:56:57.559 these are new, A lot of these are, in fact all of them 728 00:56:57.559 --> 00:57:04.159 are archival extras. But still this is a pretty big title. I'm really 729 00:57:04.199 --> 00:57:07.960 confused why this one was not a standard release. And this is why a 730 00:57:08.000 --> 00:57:14.599 lot of people have, you know, come out and completely Lambassid Shout Factory 731 00:57:14.639 --> 00:57:17.840 for their exclusive releases. This seems like just employed to sell fifteen hundred titles 732 00:57:17.920 --> 00:57:22.079 quickly, and they're still in stock, so if you want it, it's 733 00:57:22.119 --> 00:57:31.840 out there. Here we go. So this is probably the biggest announcement from 734 00:57:32.079 --> 00:57:37.079 seven over the last few months. This is the incredibly strange films of Ray 735 00:57:37.599 --> 00:57:45.079 Dennis Steckler. This is another one of their big giant director filmography box sets 736 00:57:45.079 --> 00:57:50.280 that gets almost everything that they've worked on. And this looks genuinely enticing. 737 00:57:50.840 --> 00:57:53.920 And I've never even seen a Ray Dennis Steckler film, so I'm gonna go 738 00:57:53.920 --> 00:58:00.800 through this a little bit. This has twenty incredibly strange films scanned in four 739 00:58:00.920 --> 00:58:05.320 K or two K from the best existing thirty five millimeter and sixteen millimeter vault 740 00:58:05.400 --> 00:58:09.679 elements, soul remaining prints and video masters, including several rarely seen, thought 741 00:58:09.719 --> 00:58:15.960 lost or never before on disc, plus all new special features, audio commentaries, 742 00:58:15.360 --> 00:58:21.000 a full color book, and more that smashes the fun barrier. So 743 00:58:21.239 --> 00:58:24.280 the films in this go from all the way back in nineteen sixty two all 744 00:58:24.280 --> 00:58:29.719 the way up through two thousand and eight. They include and We're gonna go 745 00:58:29.760 --> 00:58:31.840 through this a little bit more because I'm gonna go to the Severn site. 746 00:58:31.840 --> 00:58:39.119 But this this box set looks incredible. Disc one Wild Guitar. Disc two 747 00:58:39.159 --> 00:58:44.960 the incredibly Strange Creatures who stopped living and became mixed up zombies. This three 748 00:58:45.119 --> 00:58:49.440 The thrill Killers. Disc four Rat Pink. I think this one's actually Rat 749 00:58:49.440 --> 00:58:54.079 Fink, a Boo Boo and the Lemon Grove Kids Disc five, Body Fever 750 00:58:54.280 --> 00:59:00.480 and Cynthia the Devil's Doll Disc six, Bloodshack, Disc seven, The Hollywood 751 00:59:00.519 --> 00:59:06.320 Strangler Meets the skid Row Slasher and the Las Vegas serial Killer. Disc eight, 752 00:59:06.559 --> 00:59:09.639 The Mad Love Life of a Hot Vampire, Nazi Brothel, Love Life 753 00:59:09.639 --> 00:59:15.400 of Hitler's Nazis, count I'll Outcome Disc nine, Doctor cock Love, The 754 00:59:15.480 --> 00:59:21.719 sex Orcist, Devil, Red Heat Disc ten, Summer Fun Reading Pennsylvania and 755 00:59:21.800 --> 00:59:24.039 One More Time Now. One of the cool things is they were able to 756 00:59:24.079 --> 00:59:29.920 get some of the archival commentaries that Joe Bob Briggs did on some of these. 757 00:59:30.320 --> 00:59:34.119 We're gonna go through some of these and I wanted to share some of 758 00:59:34.119 --> 00:59:37.320 the details. But I will say, like I said, I've never seen 759 00:59:37.480 --> 00:59:43.079 any of these titles. I don't know if they are good. I don't 760 00:59:43.079 --> 00:59:46.719 know if they're worth checking out. I don't know if they are anything. 761 00:59:47.079 --> 00:59:54.639 But I will say the seven podcast for this box set was an incredibly deep 762 00:59:54.719 --> 01:00:00.000 dive, an incredibly useful deep dive into Steckler, into the type of film 763 01:00:00.199 --> 01:00:04.679 that they were getting into. And after all that, it sounded like it 764 01:00:04.719 --> 01:00:08.679 wasn't for me. I have not purchased this, but I strongly suggest that 765 01:00:08.719 --> 01:00:13.000 if you are into this sort of thing, you will probably really enjoy this 766 01:00:13.039 --> 01:00:16.079 box set because it sounds like, again, they put a lot of love 767 01:00:16.119 --> 01:00:22.840 and attention into this, and they really did some great work. And some 768 01:00:22.880 --> 01:00:24.760 of the stuff that they were able to track down, I mean we're talking 769 01:00:24.880 --> 01:00:31.119 like short films from you know, the one called Reading Pennsylvania. It was 770 01:00:31.239 --> 01:00:37.599 just him essentially in Reading Pennsylvania. It's some weird, random things and that's 771 01:00:37.639 --> 01:00:40.119 just sort of the way that Steckler was and you find that out when you 772 01:00:40.480 --> 01:00:45.800 go through the podcast. And again, perfect companion piece for this announcement. 773 01:00:45.880 --> 01:00:51.519 So let's go through the actual website for this real quick new book in this 774 01:00:51.639 --> 01:00:54.800 is called The Incredibly Strange Filmmaker Who Stopped Living and became a mixed up Legend, 775 01:00:55.039 --> 01:00:59.719 written by Zach Carlson, who also did Destroy All Movies and Bleeding Skull, 776 01:00:59.800 --> 01:01:06.119 a nineteen nineties trash hor odyssey with contributions by Charles Devlin. Some special 777 01:01:06.119 --> 01:01:08.679 features that I wanted to bring out on some of these for Wild Guitar Budd 778 01:01:08.719 --> 01:01:14.280 Eagle Rock's interview with an actor The Incredible Strange Film Show, Season one, 779 01:01:14.320 --> 01:01:17.679 episode two on Ray Dennis Steckler, Master of the Grind, an old interview 780 01:01:17.679 --> 01:01:22.400 with Ray Dennis Steckler. Then on the second disc we get an introduction by 781 01:01:22.480 --> 01:01:25.679 Joe Bob Briggs with the commentary by Joe Bob, commentary from Ray Dennis Steckler 782 01:01:25.760 --> 01:01:30.199 himself, an interview with Ray Dennis Steckler, and then another interview with Carolyn 783 01:01:30.199 --> 01:01:35.039 Brandt. Then we got some trailers, all kinds of stuff. I'm not 784 01:01:35.079 --> 01:01:37.440 going to bring those up because they're on most of these. Just going through 785 01:01:37.480 --> 01:01:43.920 these some great stuff like on disc three, audio commentary with Christopher Wayne Curry, 786 01:01:43.960 --> 01:01:47.159 who did the He's the author of the incredibly Strange Features of Ray Dennis 787 01:01:47.159 --> 01:01:52.440 Steckler. Then Confessions of a thrill Killer interview with actor Gary Kent Q and 788 01:01:52.480 --> 01:01:57.000 a at the York Theater in San Francisco. There's an alternate cut on this 789 01:01:57.199 --> 01:02:00.920 disc behind the scenes footage with commentary by Ray Dennis Steckler. There's just so 790 01:02:01.039 --> 01:02:07.280 much in here. This is another one that has an absolute unending list of 791 01:02:07.400 --> 01:02:13.440 films and features and everything. What's going on. Mike DVD of Blu Ray 792 01:02:15.679 --> 01:02:19.199 there you go buy versus seven movies featuring Ray Dennis Steckler are on two B 793 01:02:19.280 --> 01:02:22.960 TV right now for free. You can try it and see if it's something 794 01:02:22.000 --> 01:02:27.760 that you're interested in. I will hopefully be able to watch one of those 795 01:02:27.880 --> 01:02:31.280 in while I work during working hours over the next couple weeks and make a 796 01:02:31.280 --> 01:02:37.239 decision. They do have a couple classic several packages for this with some wild 797 01:02:37.320 --> 01:02:42.679 things like a mask and all kinds of other stuff. But some of these 798 01:02:42.719 --> 01:02:46.119 other features, I mean, more commentaries with Ray Dennis Steckler, Audio commentary 799 01:02:46.119 --> 01:02:51.920 with Aaron Abuchan Webster University Professor of Film Studies, which is kind of cool. 800 01:02:52.400 --> 01:02:57.559 Mondo Psychotronic, interview with Mando Movies label and Psychotronic Video store owner Bal 801 01:02:57.719 --> 01:03:02.440 croachin Friends B Movies and rock and roll filmmaker Don glutt On, Ray, 802 01:03:02.800 --> 01:03:08.159 Ron Haydock and Ray Dennis Steckler. So much on here, The Lemon Grove 803 01:03:08.280 --> 01:03:13.599 Kids, We got commentary with Ray Dennis Steckler, interview with Ray, We 804 01:03:13.719 --> 01:03:16.960 got interview with daughter Laura Steckler. Text card for the live show that they 805 01:03:17.000 --> 01:03:22.519 did. An unreleased fourth segment is shown here. Parade footage and if you 806 01:03:22.519 --> 01:03:27.199 listen to the podcast when they're talking about the Lemon Grove kids. They actually 807 01:03:27.280 --> 01:03:30.679 went down to a parade in California and just got in the parade without getting 808 01:03:30.679 --> 01:03:36.360 any permission and filmed it and then got kicked out. So that sort of 809 01:03:36.400 --> 01:03:38.920 thing is very interesting to me, and I love things like that, so 810 01:03:39.480 --> 01:03:44.039 again super enticing, but I need to see at least one of those films 811 01:03:44.039 --> 01:03:49.800 before I jump in, because it's expensive for sure. Disc five we're getting. 812 01:03:50.320 --> 01:03:53.920 Let's see audio commentary with Dark Eyes of London's David Dent, some more 813 01:03:54.039 --> 01:03:59.719 archival interviews.

That's another thing on that podcast. Joe Rubin is there for almost 825 01:04:55.519 --> 01:04:59.280 the entire time and has a lot to say and really goes to show how 826 01:04:59.360 --> 01:05:04.599 much these companies really work together. So it's just genuinely a great collaboration piece 827 01:05:04.639 --> 01:05:10.760 between so many wonderful people that keep delivering us things that they just desperately want 828 01:05:10.760 --> 01:05:17.159 our money for. On Doctor Cocklove interview with actress Lovey Goldmine, Lost Film's 829 01:05:17.199 --> 01:05:23.400 production digest versions of Face of Evil and Slashed. And then on this ten 830 01:05:23.519 --> 01:05:29.440 summer fund reading Pennsylvania one more Time, we get American Grindhouse Extended interview interview 831 01:05:29.440 --> 01:05:33.559 with Elijah Drenner, director of American Grindhouse who is now the man behind the 832 01:05:33.599 --> 01:05:40.519 catalog one of the Vinegar Centdrome partner labels. And Natasha Diacoba screen test for 833 01:05:40.599 --> 01:05:45.079 One More Time, Ray Dennis Steckler talks b movie filmmaking at a Vegas high 834 01:05:45.079 --> 01:05:47.960 school, and then Johnny Legend's final interview with Ray denist Deckler and behind the 835 01:05:48.000 --> 01:05:53.800 scenes footage from One More Time. Lots of stuff on here. I will 836 01:05:53.840 --> 01:05:59.400 say this promo here that is sort of a trailer for the set, but 837 01:05:59.480 --> 01:06:02.559 it's long, it's like seven and a half minutes, and it is a 838 01:06:02.800 --> 01:06:06.280 very good eye into the type of film that these are going to be, 839 01:06:06.639 --> 01:06:10.320 and you get an eye on some of the extras too, So that should 840 01:06:10.320 --> 01:06:15.199 give you a very very interesting look into the type of person that Raydentisteckler was 841 01:06:15.679 --> 01:06:18.960 and clue you in on of it's something you want to purchase. Highly suggest 842 01:06:19.039 --> 01:06:24.880 the trailer followed by the podcast and that should be enough to really get you 843 01:06:24.960 --> 01:06:29.920 caught up. Now. There are two bundles. The first one this is 844 01:06:29.960 --> 01:06:33.559 limited to three hundred and this one is one hundred and seventy one dollars and 845 01:06:33.599 --> 01:06:39.320 it includes zoom in here for you, the box set, of course, 846 01:06:39.960 --> 01:06:45.000 a sell sheet signed by Carolyn Brant from the Incredibly Strange Creatures, a Hall 847 01:06:45.039 --> 01:06:48.719 of Fame and Animal pin of Raydentisteckler and then this really cool thrill Killer's T 848 01:06:48.800 --> 01:06:55.679 shirt. Now, considering that this costs one hundred and seventy one dollars, 849 01:06:56.400 --> 01:06:59.000 when you compare that to the price of the box set by itself, that 850 01:06:59.119 --> 01:07:03.840 is one fifty, that's actually not a bad deal if you were really wanting 851 01:07:03.880 --> 01:07:08.880 to go in. It seems like twenty one dollars more would get you a 852 01:07:08.920 --> 01:07:13.000 lot more for your money than just the one fifty, just my opinion. 853 01:07:13.400 --> 01:07:18.280 But then you can go all in on Ray Dennis Steckler and you have the 854 01:07:18.320 --> 01:07:25.199 Hallucinogenic hypno Vision bundle. This one was only one hundred and they are not 855 01:07:25.360 --> 01:07:27.840 sold out yet, but they will be soon. I think they said they 856 01:07:27.840 --> 01:07:30.599 only had like twenty of these left earlier, or maybe it was even down 857 01:07:30.599 --> 01:07:32.800 to like five. This has the box set, the pin, the T 858 01:07:32.960 --> 01:07:36.840 shirt, the signed press kit, but then we also, oh sorry, 859 01:07:36.920 --> 01:07:40.760 we have the sign sell sheet. Then there is the vintage press kit, 860 01:07:41.239 --> 01:07:45.719 you get a Steckler movie's hat, and then the big thing is this cash 861 01:07:45.760 --> 01:07:49.239 flag mask, which they only had one hundred of them made. And this 862 01:07:49.280 --> 01:07:55.400 bundle is two hundred and eighty eight dollars. So you have to wonder if 863 01:07:55.639 --> 01:07:59.840 the three little bonus items here that are not in the other bundle are worth 864 01:08:00.000 --> 01:08:04.920 one hundred and seventeen dollars to you, Maybe this is the one you want 865 01:08:06.599 --> 01:08:12.039 by Fur says not to Ray Dentisteckler, saving my money for shoscope. I 866 01:08:12.079 --> 01:08:15.880 get that I do have at least one friend. Flickering Waves is huge, 867 01:08:16.720 --> 01:08:19.640 huge into Ray Dentisteckler, so I know that this is a big one for 868 01:08:19.760 --> 01:08:25.159 him, and he has been championing Ray Dennisteckler for a while. As soon 869 01:08:25.199 --> 01:08:27.800 as we got that this was coming, this was certainly on his radar, 870 01:08:28.439 --> 01:08:31.239 so Ray Dennis Steckler as his fans. That's as much as I'll say. 871 01:08:31.399 --> 01:08:39.640 I have never really been even been able to see anything, so I can't 872 01:08:39.680 --> 01:08:44.520 really make an opinion either way. But from what I see, I don't 873 01:08:44.560 --> 01:08:47.800 know that it's something that is going to entice me enough before it goes away. 874 01:08:48.159 --> 01:08:51.560 And by the way, speaking of it going away, I don't see 875 01:08:51.560 --> 01:08:57.279 anything listing it as being limited like the Adamson box set was, so I 876 01:08:57.359 --> 01:09:00.439 don't think if you are interested in this, I don't think think you have 877 01:09:00.520 --> 01:09:04.079 to jump on this now. If this is a half price in a sale 878 01:09:04.159 --> 01:09:10.119 like next May or sorry, next June, that could be worth it, 879 01:09:10.199 --> 01:09:14.720 although the MSRP on it is two twenty, so it's still gonna be one 880 01:09:14.840 --> 01:09:17.920 ten. If it's ever fifty percent off, it's still a lot. But 881 01:09:18.880 --> 01:09:24.000 you know, Sarta says not for everyone. If you like campy films, 882 01:09:24.000 --> 01:09:26.840 they are entertaining. I don't want to recommend anyone on one hundred and fifty 883 01:09:26.840 --> 01:09:30.960 dollars purchase. Probably check out too B before you decide completely agree there, 884 01:09:34.199 --> 01:09:41.960 all right, I think we got at least a few more the sea don't 885 01:09:42.000 --> 01:09:45.119 even know what I was saying there. Let's see. Oh wow, we 886 01:09:45.159 --> 01:09:47.159 still have a lot more from this first week. It's been busy, all 887 01:09:47.239 --> 01:09:50.079 right. From Keno, we are getting a lonely Hearts. This is with 888 01:09:50.199 --> 01:09:56.680 Montgomery or sorry, Cliff Montgomery, Robert Ryan. Did I read that wrong? 889 01:09:56.800 --> 01:09:59.279 Yes? I did. Montgomery, Cliff Robert Ryan, Myrna, Lloyd, 890 01:09:59.279 --> 01:10:03.359 Delores Heart, Jackie Coogan, Maureen Stapleton. This is from nineteen fifty 891 01:10:03.399 --> 01:10:06.760 eight and I've never seen it again. Blank spot on a lot of these 892 01:10:06.800 --> 01:10:11.600 classics. Unfortunately, a lot of these Keno discs are the way I'm seeing 893 01:10:11.600 --> 01:10:15.239 these for the first time. But what I have seen which I love is 894 01:10:15.319 --> 01:10:20.279 Leviathan from nineteen eighty nine the best year for aquatic hor ever, and we 895 01:10:20.359 --> 01:10:26.199 are getting Leviathan in four K from Keno coming here pretty soon. This stars, 896 01:10:26.239 --> 01:10:30.600 of course, Peter Weller, Richard Crenna, Mannipe's Daniel Stern, Ernie 897 01:10:30.680 --> 01:10:34.399 Hudson, and Meg Foster. This is gonna be a big one. This 898 01:10:34.479 --> 01:10:40.560 is directed by George P. Cosmados, who also did Tombstone and Rambo First 899 01:10:40.560 --> 01:10:45.359 Blood Part two. Of course Leviathan. If you haven't seen it, the 900 01:10:45.800 --> 01:10:49.359 screen Factory disc has been out of print for like a year or two now. 901 01:10:49.399 --> 01:10:54.239 At this point, I see this one doing very well for Keno. 902 01:10:54.800 --> 01:11:00.399 This is a great movie. Highly recommend it, highly highly recommended. Coming 903 01:11:00.479 --> 01:11:04.000 in the fall of twenty twenty two from Disco Tech is Showguns Samurai from nineteen 904 01:11:04.039 --> 01:11:11.439 seventy eight. This bloody Kinji Fukusaku period drama classic starring Sunny Chiba as Jubei 905 01:11:11.560 --> 01:11:18.640 Yagyu, will be released in Japanese with English subtitles newly retranslated subtitles improved over 906 01:11:18.680 --> 01:11:23.439 the earlier releases. This is gonna have a trailer and that's it. Not 907 01:11:23.479 --> 01:11:27.079 a whole lot on there, and this will be again fall of twenty twenty 908 01:11:27.079 --> 01:11:34.880 two. Anytime we can get more Kinji Fukusaku, I am in all right. 909 01:11:35.439 --> 01:11:42.640 Then we got a day that may a day that made some people very 910 01:11:42.680 --> 01:11:47.239 upset because we got some very big Shout and Screen Factory announcements. So let's 911 01:11:47.279 --> 01:11:51.720 go into some of these. We got Bell and four K coming from Shout 912 01:11:51.720 --> 01:11:56.520 Factory on August thirtieth. Suzu is a shy, every day high school student 913 01:11:56.600 --> 01:11:59.439 living in a rural village. For years, she has only been a shadow 914 01:11:59.439 --> 01:12:02.680 of herself, but when she enters you, a massive virtual world, she 915 01:12:02.920 --> 01:12:09.399 escapes into the online persona a bell, a gorgeous and globally beloved singer. 916 01:12:09.760 --> 01:12:13.600 One day, our concert is interrupted by a monstrous creature chased by vigilantes. 917 01:12:13.920 --> 01:12:16.840 As their hunt escalates, Susu embarks on an emotional and epic quest to uncover 918 01:12:16.920 --> 01:12:21.399 the identity of this of this mysterious beast, and to discover her true self 919 01:12:21.720 --> 01:12:27.600 in a world where you can be anyone. Now, I read that synopsis 920 01:12:27.640 --> 01:12:31.520 because a lot of people are loving this one, and this is one that 921 01:12:31.800 --> 01:12:34.479 many people just are not talking about, so I want to make sure it 922 01:12:34.479 --> 01:12:38.199 gots more love. It sounds like it's going to be a hell of her 923 01:12:38.199 --> 01:12:43.800 release and the bigger thing, you can get the film elsewhere. I get 924 01:12:43.800 --> 01:12:48.399 that, but limited on this exclusive collector's edition release. Sixty page book, 925 01:12:48.560 --> 01:12:53.960 a poster, six art cards, a sticker, promo events with Hosda and 926 01:12:54.039 --> 01:12:58.720 cast. There is behind the Japanese dub cast interviews, the making of Bell, 927 01:12:59.119 --> 01:13:00.920 and then some other art archival features that are on some of the other 928 01:13:01.000 --> 01:13:05.279 releases. This looks great, and then by First says Bell is like Ready 929 01:13:05.279 --> 01:13:10.359 Player one and Beauty and the Beast had a baby. That's actually kind of 930 01:13:10.359 --> 01:13:16.000 a cool description. Nice. Then we are getting The Bionic Woman the complete 931 01:13:16.039 --> 01:13:20.960 series. This is coming on Blu Ray, not just DVD. This is 932 01:13:20.960 --> 01:13:26.000 gonna have extras in progress and announced at a later date. I don't see 933 01:13:26.000 --> 01:13:29.640 them going too deep on extras, maybe, you know, like a couple 934 01:13:29.720 --> 01:13:32.640 hours worth. I don't see this getting you know, thirty commentary tracks or 935 01:13:32.680 --> 01:13:35.279 anything like that. This seems to be the way that they're doing, like 936 01:13:35.319 --> 01:13:39.720 The six Million Dollar Man. So this looks like a decent release, and 937 01:13:40.119 --> 01:13:44.439 fans of The Bionic Woman can rejoice because not all of these get great Blu 938 01:13:44.520 --> 01:13:51.199 Ray releases. Glad this is coming out. But let's dive into the old 939 01:13:51.239 --> 01:13:56.039 out of print titles that are now coming out from Screen Factory. So we 940 01:13:56.079 --> 01:14:00.560 are getting Child's Play two in four K. This is nineteen ninety This one 941 01:14:00.640 --> 01:14:03.680 just says extras in progress. Will be confirmed at a later date. This 942 01:14:04.000 --> 01:14:09.119 is a collector's edition, so it will come with hopefully a slew of extras. 943 01:14:09.840 --> 01:14:13.920 We are getting a Child's Play in four K. This will They did 944 01:14:13.960 --> 01:14:16.880 confirm this will have at least all of the extras from their first release when 945 01:14:16.880 --> 01:14:20.760 it was on Blu Ray, and there may be some new extras because it 946 01:14:20.800 --> 01:14:27.520 does say extras in progress and will be confirmed at a later date. And 947 01:14:28.760 --> 01:14:32.960 we are getting Child's Play three in a four K collector's edition release. Again, 948 01:14:33.079 --> 01:14:36.479 extras in progress, will find out later. This one's from nineteen ninety 949 01:14:36.520 --> 01:14:41.640 one. I love that they're putting all three of these out. I've wanted 950 01:14:41.680 --> 01:14:45.760 Child's Play two in a collector's edition from anyone for a very long time, 951 01:14:45.399 --> 01:14:48.000 and now I just hope we get the rest of the series in four K 952 01:14:48.039 --> 01:14:53.479 because Child's Play is one of the ones that genuinely holds up for most of 953 01:14:53.520 --> 01:14:57.880 the entire series. I think that it's fairly well done and one that a 954 01:14:58.000 --> 01:15:04.000 lot of people would be happy with. But if that wasn't enough, they're 955 01:15:04.000 --> 01:15:08.600 also putting out red Don from Shout Select and four K. This is coming 956 01:15:08.680 --> 01:15:12.279 with a set of those enamel pins that they've been doing. When I said 957 01:15:12.279 --> 01:15:14.720 but if that wasn't enough, I was gonna talk about the bundle, But 958 01:15:14.760 --> 01:15:18.319 we'll talk about that in a second. Uh, red Don, great title. 959 01:15:18.359 --> 01:15:21.399 This is from nineteen eighty four. This has a new four K scan, 960 01:15:21.720 --> 01:15:26.359 but all of the other features are exactly the same from the original release. 961 01:15:27.319 --> 01:15:30.760 The big way that they're enticing people is with the poster and those pins, 962 01:15:30.520 --> 01:15:33.039 and of course that it's in four K. I'm sure this is gonna 963 01:15:33.039 --> 01:15:36.960 look great in four K, but this is probably what I'm not gonna upgrade. 964 01:15:38.000 --> 01:15:41.560 It's got a great cast and it's a It's a pretty good movie if 965 01:15:41.560 --> 01:15:45.720 you've never seen it. Highly suggested. Okay, let's talk about this bundle. 966 01:15:46.560 --> 01:15:50.680 So coming on August sixteenth from Shout Factory, we're getting a bundle with 967 01:15:50.800 --> 01:15:56.479 Child's Play one through three on four K, plus a Neca figure, plus 968 01:15:56.640 --> 01:16:00.079 five posters. That's gonna be their new r that they put out for the 969 01:16:00.119 --> 01:16:05.239 Blu ray for Part one. Two of the original poster arts for Part two 970 01:16:05.279 --> 01:16:09.760 and three, and then their new art for Part two and three. You 971 01:16:09.760 --> 01:16:13.359 can see all five of them down here below. Or sorry, I said 972 01:16:13.359 --> 01:16:15.720 it was their new art. I guess it's the original art, which is 973 01:16:15.800 --> 01:16:17.840 nice. It'll be nice to have all three of those together. Then on 974 01:16:17.920 --> 01:16:23.119 top of that, this will also include a bundle of enamel pins and a 975 01:16:23.399 --> 01:16:30.199 very cool necka figure here for a Charred Chucky. Now what's interesting is the 976 01:16:30.279 --> 01:16:36.279 Charred Chucky by itself is already sold out. It was limited to four thousand, 977 01:16:38.520 --> 01:16:43.600 and it's sold out already. That is kind of crazy to me. 978 01:16:44.159 --> 01:16:49.680 It sold out like that very first day, so interesting release strategy. You 979 01:16:49.720 --> 01:16:51.840 can still get it as part of the bundle if you want it, but 980 01:16:53.279 --> 01:16:57.560 it's gonna cost you. This giant bundle is two hundred and ten dollars in 981 01:16:57.640 --> 01:17:00.760 ninety three cents. It also includes this little post card set. I forgot 982 01:17:00.840 --> 01:17:06.520 to mention that. Now these Part two and three will also have alternative slipcover, 983 01:17:06.600 --> 01:17:12.640 so you're gonna get five slipcovers total. So the price here, A 984 01:17:12.680 --> 01:17:18.079 lot of people seem to be upset with the price. Now, I do 985 01:17:18.119 --> 01:17:23.199 not think that this is grossly overpriced when you start looking at their original prices 986 01:17:23.439 --> 01:17:29.079 for individual items. Just the first three films, you're looking at about one 987 01:17:29.199 --> 01:17:34.399 hundred and ten ish dollars. The necka figure is another forty, so that's 988 01:17:34.479 --> 01:17:40.720 one fifty. You get these exclusive postcards and the posters and so, you 989 01:17:41.000 --> 01:17:45.159 know, put in another five or eight dollars this pin set. A lot 990 01:17:45.159 --> 01:17:47.560 of people don't understand that enamel pins, like I talked about earlier, the 991 01:17:47.640 --> 01:17:53.439 good ones are usually somewhere between twelve and five dollars. So fifty bucks for 992 01:17:53.560 --> 01:17:59.920 an exclusive enamel pin set of five pins. It's kind of a decent price. 993 01:18:00.520 --> 01:18:04.600 It's not really that off the deep end. It's maybe a little high 994 01:18:04.600 --> 01:18:08.680 for a bundle like this, But I think the big chunk of that is 995 01:18:08.720 --> 01:18:13.119 the four K because each of those on their site alone is almost thirty seven 996 01:18:13.159 --> 01:18:17.079 dollars, which that's a lot. Believe me, you know, one hundred 997 01:18:17.079 --> 01:18:25.920 and ten dollars for three four K films is a lot. And sartist points 998 01:18:25.960 --> 01:18:29.000 out seventy dollars a film. Extra stuff sounds like the shopping channel, and 999 01:18:29.000 --> 01:18:31.520 that's for certain people. I agree, they don't need all that extra stuff. 1000 01:18:32.359 --> 01:18:35.479 Here's a close up of that top of the doll I got a better 1001 01:18:35.520 --> 01:18:41.000 picture coming, but yeah, that bundle is wild. They're also putting out 1002 01:18:41.039 --> 01:18:44.239 Fern Goalie The Last Rainforest, and then I wanted to point out too, 1003 01:18:45.399 --> 01:18:48.119 Let's see I should not have gone onto the Fern Goalie one. They do 1004 01:18:48.199 --> 01:18:54.239 have a smaller bundle that is one fifty three that has all three films, 1005 01:18:54.640 --> 01:18:59.920 the posters and the Necka figure without the pins, and that one is one 1006 01:19:00.000 --> 01:19:04.439 one ninety, so it's still a lot, but it's significantly less. And 1007 01:19:04.479 --> 01:19:09.119 that bundle is also available. Still it's not sold out, so you got 1008 01:19:09.119 --> 01:19:14.000 two different bundles that you can still get the Necka figure as a part of. 1009 01:19:15.039 --> 01:19:17.319 And yeah, if you want it, it's still kind of available. 1010 01:19:17.359 --> 01:19:25.920 It's just a lot more money to get. But Meka collectors get wild again. 1011 01:19:26.119 --> 01:19:29.600 Shout select all kinds of titles coming out this month. This seems to 1012 01:19:29.640 --> 01:19:32.079 be a huge month for Shout Factory. They're putting out Last Days in the 1013 01:19:32.079 --> 01:19:35.199 Desert from twenty fifteen. I've not seen this one, but I heard it's 1014 01:19:35.239 --> 01:19:41.199 really great. And then they also announced Learning to Drive with Ben Kingsley and 1015 01:19:41.239 --> 01:19:45.399 Patricia Clarkson. This is from twenty fourteen. I don't know anybody that's seen 1016 01:19:45.439 --> 01:19:48.920 this one. I also shared already that they're doing Red Dawn, so that 1017 01:19:49.039 --> 01:19:53.880 was three titles, but no, they're putting out a fourth title from Shout 1018 01:19:53.920 --> 01:19:57.560 Select A Walk in the Woods with Robert Redford, Nick Nolty, and Emma 1019 01:19:57.600 --> 01:20:01.239 Thompson. This is from twenty fifteen and I did not even know this existed. 1020 01:20:01.640 --> 01:20:05.920 This is an interesting one. We'll see if any of these get extras. 1021 01:20:06.399 --> 01:20:10.760 I don't really count on them getting new extras, so we'll see. 1022 01:20:13.359 --> 01:20:15.680 Here is that really good close up? Let me zoom in a little for 1023 01:20:15.720 --> 01:20:19.720 you of that Chucky figure. If you've seen the movie, this is a 1024 01:20:19.760 --> 01:20:26.119 pretty iconic looking shot for the figure. I'm kind of surprised this has never 1025 01:20:26.159 --> 01:20:31.720 been released by Neca before. The figure is an interesting take, and I 1026 01:20:31.760 --> 01:20:35.039 don't think the pictures are going to do this one justice. The only thing 1027 01:20:35.079 --> 01:20:40.000 I will point out is that it's a Neca figure and it's not that big. 1028 01:20:41.000 --> 01:20:44.079 These are not you know, ten inch figures or anything like that. 1029 01:20:44.119 --> 01:20:46.840 This is like a five and a half inch figure, So keep in mind 1030 01:20:46.840 --> 01:20:50.479 when you're purchasing it. The original Chucky figure that they did for Child's Play 1031 01:20:50.520 --> 01:20:55.520 one, it's very small, so five and a half inches, I mean 1032 01:20:55.720 --> 01:21:01.840 you're talking like the height of my phone. I mean, that's that's about 1033 01:21:01.840 --> 01:21:05.600 it, and then in a little box. So I'm sure the detail will 1034 01:21:05.600 --> 01:21:12.039 be great, but yeah, it's not gonna be massive. They're also putting 1035 01:21:12.039 --> 01:21:20.119 out Nadia The Secret of Blue Water the complete series. I know nothing about 1036 01:21:20.119 --> 01:21:24.479 this one, but this is from the creator of Neon Genesis, Evangelian. 1037 01:21:27.039 --> 01:21:32.600 Then we got some really interesting Umbrella announcements and this is getting close to when 1038 01:21:32.640 --> 01:21:36.560 we're gonna be cutting it off, I believe. So. Umbrella is putting 1039 01:21:36.600 --> 01:21:42.760 out as part of their Beyond genres line, Mega Force from nineteen eighty two, 1040 01:21:42.800 --> 01:21:45.399 and this is a big title. This is one that a lot of 1041 01:21:45.399 --> 01:21:49.199 people have wanted for a long long time. Let's see. That is the 1042 01:21:49.199 --> 01:21:54.159 front of the slip. This is the back, and then they've got this 1043 01:21:54.359 --> 01:21:58.800 big bundle that they're putting out with it including a hat and everything. Here 1044 01:21:58.920 --> 01:22:03.319 is the inner art. This is with Barry Bostwick and Mega Force is an 1045 01:22:03.319 --> 01:22:09.560 elite multinational military unit that does the jobs that individual governments will not. When 1046 01:22:09.560 --> 01:22:13.680 the peaceful Republic of Sardoune An under threat, sorry is under threat from their 1047 01:22:13.680 --> 01:22:17.479 more aggressive neighbor, the beautiful Major Zera and General Burn White see the help 1048 01:22:17.520 --> 01:22:23.479 of Ace Hunter and Mega Force. That was poorly written copy. I think 1049 01:22:23.520 --> 01:22:27.840 that they need to edit that. There are some exclusives on here. Ace 1050 01:22:27.880 --> 01:22:30.319 Speaks, an all new forty minute interview with Barry Bostwick, which is really 1051 01:22:30.359 --> 01:22:36.399 cool, audio commentary with author and megafan Stephen Wagg. Exclusive Life After Mega 1052 01:22:36.399 --> 01:22:44.680 Force, upcoming documentary interview with Barry Bostwick and filmmaker Rob linden Mayer. There's 1053 01:22:44.720 --> 01:22:48.600 a new trailer for that documentary. There is Hal Needham trailer role, an 1054 01:22:48.640 --> 01:22:54.359 old audio commentary with Barry Boswick and Rob linden Mayer, and just a bunch 1055 01:22:54.359 --> 01:22:58.800 of other stuff. And then this cult collector Cult Classic Collector's Edition limited to 1056 01:22:58.840 --> 01:23:02.439 only two hundred and fifty I'm storming into the Beyond Genre's collection with a reversible 1057 01:23:02.479 --> 01:23:09.439 poster, embroidered cap, eight poster postcards, holographic Stigger membership card, and 1058 01:23:09.560 --> 01:23:14.840 exclusive extras. So much in there. Sartis asks is this animated? It 1059 01:23:14.920 --> 01:23:18.800 is not. This is a real live action film. You can see some 1060 01:23:18.840 --> 01:23:26.119 of the see some of the shots here at the top of the back of 1061 01:23:26.159 --> 01:23:31.119 the slip and from what I hear, let's see from the director of Smoking 1062 01:23:31.119 --> 01:23:34.720 in the Bandit and the producer of the Godfather comes the ultimate futuristic tongue in 1063 01:23:34.800 --> 01:23:41.439 cheek action adventure about an elite combo fighting force armed with the most sophisticated weapons 1064 01:23:41.680 --> 01:23:45.319 science can devise. Their mission is to preserve freedom and justice and battle the 1065 01:23:45.359 --> 01:23:49.920 forces of evil. And this has never been released on Blu Ray except for 1066 01:23:50.560 --> 01:23:55.520 in a German media book. A German media book, I believe, so 1067 01:23:55.600 --> 01:23:59.079 this is probably going to do very well for them. This is one that 1068 01:23:59.079 --> 01:24:01.560 a lot of people have wont When I shared this on Twitter, a lot 1069 01:24:01.640 --> 01:24:06.119 of people were sharing that post and it went to some like some bigger names. 1070 01:24:06.720 --> 01:24:11.439 Some directors in the US are big fans of this one, and I 1071 01:24:11.560 --> 01:24:16.319 genuinely I think Umbrella is going to do very well with this release. They're 1072 01:24:16.359 --> 01:24:21.039 also putting out money movers as part of their Osploitation Classics line. This is 1073 01:24:21.079 --> 01:24:26.479 from nineteen seventy eight and it has a full size replica day bill if for 1074 01:24:26.640 --> 01:24:30.920 the first one hundred orders that are direct from Umbrella. Here is the back 1075 01:24:30.960 --> 01:24:34.199 of the slip and then here is the inner art. Twenty million dollars is 1076 01:24:34.279 --> 01:24:39.640 enough to test anyone's honesty. This is going to have some exclusive extras on 1077 01:24:39.720 --> 01:24:43.720 here. We got a round table discussion with the director and cast members, 1078 01:24:44.159 --> 01:24:47.319 interview with producer, and then a making up featurette with a lot of people 1079 01:24:47.319 --> 01:24:53.359 that were involved from two thousand and four and their Osploitation Classics line is just 1080 01:24:53.600 --> 01:24:59.319 great. They've done some really really strong work with all of their osploitation films 1081 01:24:59.479 --> 01:25:01.319 and that's good. I mean their Umbrella. They're from Australia. I'm glad 1082 01:25:01.319 --> 01:25:10.079 that they're able to put hard work into their nation's releases for US. I 1083 01:25:10.119 --> 01:25:14.399 believe this is pronounced bilitis. This was also put out by Fun City Additions. 1084 01:25:15.199 --> 01:25:17.279 This is coming to their Sensual Cinema line for Umbrella. This is from 1085 01:25:17.359 --> 01:25:23.960 nineteen seventy seven and this is limited to a thousand on the slip here. 1086 01:25:24.960 --> 01:25:29.479 The artwork will come uncensored, but they wanted to show you this art is 1087 01:25:29.640 --> 01:25:33.319 so they can hide the nipple here again. This was put out by Fun 1088 01:25:33.399 --> 01:25:38.880 City Editions and has not gotten great reviews from a lot of people. Most 1089 01:25:38.920 --> 01:25:42.000 people I know think that this is the worst Fun City film. But even 1090 01:25:42.039 --> 01:25:46.399 then it's not saying a whole lot because all of theirs are pretty good. 1091 01:25:47.840 --> 01:25:50.520 I need to watch this one for sure. I did get this one in. 1092 01:25:51.000 --> 01:25:55.880 I need to see it. They're also putting out Doctor Cyclops and Cults 1093 01:25:55.880 --> 01:26:00.920 of the Cobra as a retro horror double feature, no extras. What they've 1094 01:26:00.960 --> 01:26:06.399 been doing for their retro horror features. Let's see that one's about the coupon 1095 01:26:06.479 --> 01:26:11.159 that Vinegar Syndrome announced as part of their sale. This is kind of a 1096 01:26:11.159 --> 01:26:13.680 cool one. This is a really low quality picture of the cover. But 1097 01:26:13.760 --> 01:26:18.399 Quentin Tarantino is releasing his first book of nonfiction. The long awaited first work 1098 01:26:18.439 --> 01:26:23.159 of nonfiction from the author of the number one New York Times best selling Once 1099 01:26:23.239 --> 01:26:28.720 Upon a Time in Hollywood is putting out a deliriously entertaining, wickedly intelligent cinema 1100 01:26:28.720 --> 01:26:32.920 book as unique and creative as anything by Quentin Tarantino. Now, just in 1101 01:26:32.920 --> 01:26:35.880 case you want a closer look at it, because I didn't copy everything over, 1102 01:26:36.680 --> 01:26:42.399 here is the link in the chat to the Amazon posting for this. 1103 01:26:43.000 --> 01:26:45.720 So this says. For years he has touted in interviews his eventual turn to 1104 01:26:45.760 --> 01:26:49.920 writing books about films now a cinema speculation. The time has come and the 1105 01:26:49.920 --> 01:26:54.880 results are everything his passionate fans and all movie lovers could have hoped for. 1106 01:26:55.479 --> 01:26:59.279 Organized around key American films from the nineteen seventies, all of which he first 1107 01:26:59.279 --> 01:27:02.880 saw as a moviegoer at the time. This book is as intellectually rigorous and 1108 01:27:02.920 --> 01:27:08.560 insightful as it is rollicking and entertaining. Now once film criticism, Film thirty 1109 01:27:08.920 --> 01:27:12.840 a feat of reporting and wonderful personal history. It is all written in the 1110 01:27:12.880 --> 01:27:17.079 singular voice, recognizable immediately as QTS, and with the rare perspective about cinema 1111 01:27:17.479 --> 01:27:23.479 possible only from one of the greatest practitioners of the art form ever. This 1112 01:27:23.560 --> 01:27:28.479 is one that I can't wait to see. He's also doing a podcast, 1113 01:27:28.600 --> 01:27:30.520 like Couch said here, and it sounds like it's going to be great. 1114 01:27:31.279 --> 01:27:39.039 It's going to be a very obviously Quentin Tarantino podcast. He's got a singular 1115 01:27:39.159 --> 01:27:43.239 voice, and when he does stuff like this again, kind of like the 1116 01:27:43.279 --> 01:27:46.399 copy said here, you can tell that it's him. And I'm very curious 1117 01:27:46.439 --> 01:27:49.479 to see how good this does for him, And if it does well, 1118 01:27:49.960 --> 01:27:54.640 I imagine he may make that turn to doing books. I just hope he 1119 01:27:54.720 --> 01:27:57.560 keeps making movies. I know he said he's only going to do ten, 1120 01:27:57.640 --> 01:28:00.000 and a lot of people say he's got one left. Well man, I 1121 01:28:00.039 --> 01:28:06.920 really hope he goes longer than that. Keino is putting out Electric Glide in 1122 01:28:08.000 --> 01:28:11.119 Blue. We've talked about this previously, but we got some new details. 1123 01:28:11.159 --> 01:28:15.119 This is gonna have a new four K master, new audio commentary by screenwriter 1124 01:28:15.239 --> 01:28:19.560 Robert Boris, moderated by Alex van Nine. Sorry Alex van Dine. There's 1125 01:28:19.600 --> 01:28:25.159 a new interview with Mitchell Ryan, new interview with screenwriter Robert Boris, and 1126 01:28:25.520 --> 01:28:29.640 it's going to have this slip cover and then the inner art has a reversible 1127 01:28:29.680 --> 01:28:36.439 cover. This is the other side Electric Glide in Blue. Keena Lober is 1128 01:28:36.439 --> 01:28:41.800 also putting out don't tell her it's me, but this is coming from code 1129 01:28:41.840 --> 01:28:45.520 read through Keno. This is also called The Boyfriend School. This is from 1130 01:28:45.600 --> 01:28:50.840 nineteen ninety new two K Master starring Steve Gutenberg and Shelley Long is also in 1131 01:28:50.880 --> 01:28:58.439 this, as you can probably see there, so is Jamie Gertz. I'm 1132 01:28:58.520 --> 01:29:00.520 curious about this one. I don't I don't think I've seen this, but 1133 01:29:01.119 --> 01:29:04.079 it's also got a young Kyle McLaughlin. I really want to see it. 1134 01:29:09.520 --> 01:29:14.399 All right, then, just four short days ago on I think this was 1135 01:29:14.439 --> 01:29:17.880 on Friday, So maybe let me take a look at this. We may 1136 01:29:17.920 --> 01:29:21.560 not be going over these. This might be the ones that we wait on 1137 01:29:21.920 --> 01:29:29.319 till Thursday. And we got so many partner label releases this last week it 1138 01:29:29.399 --> 01:29:35.600 is hard to track down everything. No, these were on These were on 1139 01:29:35.760 --> 01:29:39.840 Thursday, that's right. So yeah, we're gonna talk about Mondo and then 1140 01:29:39.840 --> 01:29:44.199 that's gonna be it. So we are getting from Monto Micabre. You can 1141 01:29:44.239 --> 01:29:47.800 pre order this on June thirtieth. The Other Side of the Mirror from nineteen 1142 01:29:47.840 --> 01:29:51.920 seventy three. This is a Jess Franco film which seems to be all the 1143 01:29:53.000 --> 01:29:56.600 rage right now that with Vinegar Syndrome putting it out, Pulse Video putting one 1144 01:29:56.600 --> 01:30:00.520 out, Monta Micabre putting one out, and seven Films putting out Like twelve 1145 01:30:00.600 --> 01:30:03.760 as part of their mid year sale. This is the Other Side of the 1146 01:30:03.800 --> 01:30:08.800 Mirror. Anna, a young songwriter and piano player, lives alone with her 1147 01:30:08.800 --> 01:30:12.399 father in a large house on the island of Madera. She meets a boy 1148 01:30:12.399 --> 01:30:14.920 and they plan to marry. However, when she tells her father of their 1149 01:30:14.960 --> 01:30:20.079 intentions, he tries to persuade her to call off the wedding and then it 1150 01:30:20.319 --> 01:30:24.680 turns bad.

Couch says, 1162 01:31:21.199 --> 01:31:26.720 interesting month from Mondo Micabro. It really is. And then their second 1163 01:31:26.720 --> 01:31:31.359 title is Love Brides of the Blood Mummy from nineteen seventy two. Let's read 1164 01:31:31.399 --> 01:31:34.359 just the first paragraph of the synopsis here. In ancient Egypt, the son 1165 01:31:34.359 --> 01:31:38.560 of a high priest is sentenced to death for the murder and mutilation of young 1166 01:31:38.600 --> 01:31:43.319 women. His father uses his influence to have a son placed in a cataleptic 1167 01:31:44.319 --> 01:31:47.880 I think that is spelled wrong. Maybe I'm wrong cataleptic state and sealed intact 1168 01:31:47.880 --> 01:31:53.720 in a grand sarcophagus thousands of years later and a castle in remote nineteenth century 1169 01:31:53.720 --> 01:31:58.720 Cornwall. Lord Dartmoor, an eccentric practitioner of the Black Arts, opens the 1170 01:31:58.800 --> 01:32:03.720 sarcophagus and bring the body back to life through the power of electricity. Available 1171 01:32:03.720 --> 01:32:09.279 for the first time on home video anywhere in the world, first time on 1172 01:32:09.439 --> 01:32:13.479 home video anywhere in the world. Amazing. I love when they do stuff 1173 01:32:13.520 --> 01:32:18.199 like that. Comes the complete and uncut version of this legendary rarity from nineteen 1174 01:32:18.239 --> 01:32:23.439 seventy three. The film contains extended scenes of sex and violence that are among 1175 01:32:23.479 --> 01:32:28.119 the most intense and shocking of any film from this period. This is going 1176 01:32:28.159 --> 01:32:31.399 to be a region free release, brand new, digitally rescored excuse me, 1177 01:32:31.479 --> 01:32:38.039 restored four K scan of the OCN English or French audio with optional English subs 1178 01:32:38.439 --> 01:32:42.039 choice of two different cuts of the film. Brand new audio commentary by David 1179 01:32:42.039 --> 01:32:46.840 Flint, Super eight millimeter cutdown version, alternate scenes, gallery of publicity materials, 1180 01:32:46.840 --> 01:32:51.520 and then the limited red case copy will have a reversible cover sleeve. 1181 01:32:53.359 --> 01:32:58.079 This is the other art that they are showing, twenty four page full color 1182 01:32:58.079 --> 01:33:01.880 booklet by Pete Tooms Setifi. I've double sided art cards, twelve hundred numbered 1183 01:33:01.880 --> 01:33:08.359 copies, and the usual case. Thanks Maximus man, it has been a 1184 01:33:08.439 --> 01:33:11.920 long time. John is late. Hey, that's fine, this is not 1185 01:33:11.960 --> 01:33:16.359 the normal time. I completely get it. Mitchell is looking forward to Mondo. 1186 01:33:17.119 --> 01:33:20.760 They always do something interesting at least, and I think more people would 1187 01:33:20.800 --> 01:33:24.359 like them if they give him the time of day, but I fear so 1188 01:33:24.399 --> 01:33:28.560 many people just overlook them for some reason. And then the final title, 1189 01:33:28.920 --> 01:33:32.239 The Horrible Sexy Vampire, and they wanted to note please note this addition will 1190 01:33:32.239 --> 01:33:35.479 come with a slipcover that we will be unveiling at a later date, which 1191 01:33:35.520 --> 01:33:41.600 is kind of cool. They've only released I think two slips. Oh sorry, 1192 01:33:41.640 --> 01:33:46.239 they've released three slipcovers. That's right, Yeah, just three slipcovers on 1193 01:33:46.279 --> 01:33:49.920 their red cases. Now, this one, a series of murders is being 1194 01:33:49.920 --> 01:33:55.000 committed. Both men and women are victims of a mystery assassin. The police 1195 01:33:55.000 --> 01:33:58.000 think it is the work of a serial killer. The coroner is not sure 1196 01:33:58.039 --> 01:34:00.319 it is so simple. He has been studying the case and has discovered that 1197 01:34:00.319 --> 01:34:03.720 for nearly one hundred years in the same district, people have been killed in 1198 01:34:03.760 --> 01:34:09.640 the same way and according to a very distinct time pattern. So the features 1199 01:34:09.680 --> 01:34:12.840 on this one, or actually, let me read this paragraph because it's really 1200 01:34:12.880 --> 01:34:15.520 cool. Something of a holy grail for fans of euro horror cinema, and 1201 01:34:15.560 --> 01:34:19.800 notorious for its frequent scenes of nudity, the film has been unavailable for many 1202 01:34:19.880 --> 01:34:24.920 years. This is a world premiere Blu Ray release filmed in Germany and the 1203 01:34:24.960 --> 01:34:29.680 snowy winter of nineteen sixty nine. The film has a unique and morbid atmosphere 1204 01:34:29.680 --> 01:34:34.319 and features an astonishing performance from Jess Franco favorite wal Davis as both vampire and 1205 01:34:34.479 --> 01:34:38.760 victim. This is going to be a region free release, brand new four 1206 01:34:38.800 --> 01:34:43.399 K scan again of the thirty five millimeter Vault material, choice of English or 1207 01:34:43.439 --> 01:34:47.000 Spanish audio with the English subs, new audio commentary by David Flint and Adrian 1208 01:34:47.119 --> 01:34:53.239 J. Smith, an animated press book in publicity stills and then a limited 1209 01:34:53.359 --> 01:34:58.720 edition will have a slipcover art coming later. Twenty four page full color booklet 1210 01:34:58.800 --> 01:35:04.720 by Ismael Fernandez set up five double sided art cards twelve hundred numbered copies in 1211 01:35:04.760 --> 01:35:11.319 the usual red case. John says, these are certainly better than the last 1212 01:35:11.319 --> 01:35:15.680 batch. I think that these are incredibly unique compared to that last batch too. 1213 01:35:15.760 --> 01:35:19.239 That last batch it wasn't bad. I don't think I need to watch 1214 01:35:19.760 --> 01:35:27.600 let's see. I think I've watched one of them. Yep, it's an 1215 01:35:27.640 --> 01:35:30.319 interesting one. And then it doesn't help that one of the ones from the 1216 01:35:30.359 --> 01:35:35.880 last batch we're already getting from Altered Innocence because it was a dual release and 1217 01:35:36.039 --> 01:35:40.720 that was planned all along and we knew that, but I don't know it 1218 01:35:40.800 --> 01:35:45.720 was an on group last time. I agree, all right, that's all 1219 01:35:45.760 --> 01:35:48.840 that we're gonna go over this time, and then on Thursday, we're gonna 1220 01:35:48.840 --> 01:35:56.079 come back and start with the next Kenolover announcement and go over everything from this 1221 01:35:56.199 --> 01:36:01.239 last week because there was a lot Partner Labels Alone. Partner Labels Alone is 1222 01:36:01.279 --> 01:36:04.359 going to take a while to discuss because they had I think thirteen releases, 1223 01:36:05.920 --> 01:36:10.000 one of which has already sold out and another witch has already had a slipcover 1224 01:36:10.079 --> 01:36:14.399 sellout, So there's a lot there to talk about. We talked about the 1225 01:36:14.479 --> 01:36:17.800 Ray Dentisteckler set. We talked about Scream Factory, We talked about all of 1226 01:36:17.840 --> 01:36:26.079 that. Are there any questions anything I can help with before we go again? 1227 01:36:26.159 --> 01:36:28.560 Thank you everybody for tuning in. I know this is an odd time. 1228 01:36:29.800 --> 01:36:31.359 I just wanted to get a week coverage so that we can be ready 1229 01:36:31.359 --> 01:36:34.880 for Thursday, just to get back into the normal swing of things. It 1230 01:36:35.000 --> 01:36:40.880 is nice to be back. I appreciate all of the welcome homes from everybody 1231 01:36:40.880 --> 01:36:45.520 and the messages while I was gone. I certainly felt odd not updating everybody 1232 01:36:46.000 --> 01:36:53.039 consistently. It was such a busy period and primarily my discord for those patrons. 1233 01:36:53.199 --> 01:36:59.359 I felt bad not being able to speak up. But man, being 1234 01:36:59.479 --> 01:37:03.960 literally from minute one like eight am through midnight every single day at the very 1235 01:37:04.039 --> 01:37:11.159 least, is just crazy. And then coming home to shower afterwards. John 1236 01:37:11.239 --> 01:37:18.199 asked which partner label sold out its slip that was. Let me see, 1237 01:37:21.439 --> 01:37:25.720 I believe it was a pot Yeah, it was Apocalypse After It was the 1238 01:37:26.000 --> 01:37:29.680 one that we were just talking about that Mondo had released previously, and that 1239 01:37:29.800 --> 01:37:35.239 was because there was only five hundred units for that slipcover, which is weirdly 1240 01:37:35.319 --> 01:37:42.800 low. Any opinion about the Thriller Anger. Oh uh, that's a good 1241 01:37:42.880 --> 01:37:46.560 question, and I didn't post anything about it. I think the Thriller anger 1242 01:37:46.800 --> 01:37:51.720 is completely unfounded and ridiculous. They were the only thing that they were not 1243 01:37:51.840 --> 01:37:56.920 transparent about is how many that they were going to release. But they warned 1244 01:37:56.960 --> 01:38:00.600 everybody, even in the back, you know, in the p of the 1245 01:38:00.920 --> 01:38:04.520 Sorry, I should probably say what the anger was about from everybody, so 1246 01:38:04.560 --> 01:38:10.520 those that didn't pay attention. Viniger Syndrome released Thriller in four K and they 1247 01:38:10.560 --> 01:38:15.920 sold through ten thousand copies of the limited box set that is going to come 1248 01:38:15.039 --> 01:38:18.800 in one of their you know, two slip covers in a slip box with 1249 01:38:18.880 --> 01:38:21.479 all of the cuts of the film and four K and everything. It was 1250 01:38:21.960 --> 01:38:26.199 wild. It's going to be a beautiful set, and some people are already 1251 01:38:26.239 --> 01:38:29.520 raving about it, the ones that have got it. Now. During the 1252 01:38:29.560 --> 01:38:32.720 sale, they sold out of the limited edition, of which they had ten 1253 01:38:32.760 --> 01:38:40.199 thousand, and they immediately started selling a standard edition. Now, the people 1254 01:38:40.479 --> 01:38:45.479 that were seeing that and were getting upset seemed to be upset that they they 1255 01:38:45.560 --> 01:38:48.279 may have waited to purchase if they knew that there was a standard edition coming. 1256 01:38:49.159 --> 01:38:51.760 We knew that there was a standard edition coming. They told us that 1257 01:38:51.840 --> 01:38:56.479 it was coming. It's not something that was a surprise to anybody. I 1258 01:38:56.520 --> 01:39:00.000 think the only reason they were surprised is that it was up for sale immediately, 1259 01:39:00.439 --> 01:39:04.039 which I think is kind of an odd take. If something sells out 1260 01:39:04.119 --> 01:39:09.039 and they have another version of it, why would they wait. The only 1261 01:39:09.159 --> 01:39:13.199 reason logically that you should be upset about that is if you were looking to 1262 01:39:13.279 --> 01:39:16.600 make money on that first release, which if there were ten thousand copies of 1263 01:39:16.640 --> 01:39:21.079 it sold, most people that are going to be wanting that film probably got 1264 01:39:21.119 --> 01:39:25.800 a copy of it, and the ones that don't are going to be okay 1265 01:39:25.880 --> 01:39:30.680 getting that standard release later. So I don't see why there's so much vitriol 1266 01:39:30.760 --> 01:39:35.960 over things like this vinegar syndrome. You know, they put out this wonderful 1267 01:39:36.000 --> 01:39:42.760 release and that made everybody happy, and they said the four K cut of 1268 01:39:43.159 --> 01:39:46.239 both cuts are sorry, both cuts are only going to be in four K 1269 01:39:46.359 --> 01:39:50.399 on this limited edition release, and there will be a standard release to follow 1270 01:39:51.279 --> 01:39:57.279 the standard release followed. I don't understand what there is to be upset about. 1271 01:39:58.399 --> 01:40:01.800 I think it comes to it's I don't even know the right way to 1272 01:40:01.800 --> 01:40:04.720 say it. That was like five sentences starting at once. I feel like 1273 01:40:04.800 --> 01:40:09.479 it's just coming from a state of privilege and it doesn't make any sense. 1274 01:40:12.079 --> 01:40:15.840 Anthony says, you were on vacation, so to speak. Kind of enjoy 1275 01:40:15.880 --> 01:40:16.920 it. The discord will be okay while you were away. By the way, 1276 01:40:16.920 --> 01:40:19.640 if you haven't joined the Patreon discord, do it. I appreciate that, 1277 01:40:19.680 --> 01:40:25.359 Anthony. Yes, the Patreon and discord is genuinely one of my favorite 1278 01:40:25.359 --> 01:40:29.800 places to spend my time lately. Everybody you know, posting reviews of things 1279 01:40:29.800 --> 01:40:32.680 they're watching, sharing what they're about to watch, discussing, you know, 1280 01:40:32.760 --> 01:40:38.600 deals we're finding, complaining of all the good releases and no money. It's 1281 01:40:38.800 --> 01:40:42.399 hard speaking of that, John says, I still got to order my partner 1282 01:40:42.479 --> 01:40:45.600 labels that I want. Only grabbed the Franco because of how fast it's sold. 1283 01:40:45.760 --> 01:40:48.560 That thing sold ridiculously fast, I think if I remember, it was 1284 01:40:48.640 --> 01:40:53.960 under two hours. We'll talk about that more on Thursday. But there's a 1285 01:40:54.000 --> 01:40:58.560 lot of people pissed off about that one too. I mean, that's some 1286 01:40:58.680 --> 01:41:01.800 of these deals. They're limited to sell a very specific number of them in 1287 01:41:01.840 --> 01:41:05.800 the US, and Pulse Video is not from the US originally, kind of 1288 01:41:05.800 --> 01:41:10.760 like subculture, and they still have their own copy available which they can sell 1289 01:41:10.800 --> 01:41:15.000 more of. So yeah, I don't understand all the anger that just comes 1290 01:41:15.000 --> 01:41:18.760 from collecting. For a lot of these people is wild. It's uh, 1291 01:41:20.000 --> 01:41:25.159 I don't know. It's about spreading you know, respect and love for film, 1292 01:41:25.279 --> 01:41:30.560 and again I don't know a lot of people. The only thing I 1293 01:41:30.600 --> 01:41:32.840 can get being mad about is that it was limited to a thousand, and 1294 01:41:33.399 --> 01:41:35.920 I guarantee some of those one to people who are going to put it up 1295 01:41:35.920 --> 01:41:41.159 on eBay for three times the price or more. I think it's already sold 1296 01:41:41.159 --> 01:41:44.159 for more than one hundred dollars and people don't even have it in hand yet, 1297 01:41:44.199 --> 01:41:49.079 which is ridiculous. But I don't know that is That is as far 1298 01:41:49.119 --> 01:41:56.039 as I'll go for that one until Thursday, at least, any of the 1299 01:41:56.119 --> 01:41:59.920 questions. Once again, I want to just give a shout out and thank 1300 01:42:00.159 --> 01:42:05.359 my friend Joshua jeb Kuga who sent me a Scarface Devil in Disguise and Bubba 1301 01:42:05.399 --> 01:42:12.520 Hotep and the Cosmic Bloodsuckers Jacob Or Joshua is the writer for both of these 1302 01:42:13.000 --> 01:42:15.800 and literally just wanted to share some of the work that he has helped create. 1303 01:42:15.960 --> 01:42:20.840 So strongly suggest checking him out. I guess he is featured on Cereal 1304 01:42:20.880 --> 01:42:25.640 at midnight sometimes by Heath, so it seems like he's getting a lot of 1305 01:42:25.640 --> 01:42:29.399 love out there. I appreciate him watching, I appreciate you watching, and 1306 01:42:29.439 --> 01:42:33.319 if there's no other questions, I think we're gonna give this odd Reconnected a 1307 01:42:33.399 --> 01:42:38.600 little early out today and everybody can get back to their evening. I appreciate 1308 01:42:38.640 --> 01:42:42.920 your time, appreciate you watching. Thank you guys, and once again, 1309 01:42:43.159 --> 01:42:45.720 the last thing I'll say is a big thanks to the patrons. I shouted 1310 01:42:45.720 --> 01:42:48.960 you out once earlier in the video, but you deserve more. You always 1311 01:42:49.000 --> 01:42:53.760 do keeps this channel alive.
