WEBVTT

1
00:00:23.679 --> 00:00:29.719
Hey, hey, everybody, we
are live and this is Mondo Digital's Nathaniel

2
00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:32.759
Thompson joining us on a Thursday night. How are we doing, Nathaniel,

3
00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:36.640
Hey, weeks almost over, thank
god, and it's a short week next

4
00:00:36.679 --> 00:00:42.079
week, so yay. I laughed
because somebody I'm doing an interview with somebody

5
00:00:42.079 --> 00:00:44.600
from Canada soon and they said,
hey, are you are you free next

6
00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:48.039
Thursday? We can meet them.
I'm well, got a little bit of

7
00:00:48.079 --> 00:00:54.759
plans down here, yep, a
little bit. What's going on? Everybody

8
00:00:54.799 --> 00:00:58.640
that is here live, Good to
see all the friends in the chat.

9
00:00:59.520 --> 00:01:03.200
Nathaniel, for those that don't know, contributes to all kinds of releases.

10
00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:07.280
I swear you've had at least two
or three releases announced every week for like

11
00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:11.439
the last three or four weeks.
It feels like, yeah, it's been

12
00:01:11.480 --> 00:01:14.680
like a flood lately. It's it's
kind of funny, yeah, And we

13
00:01:14.680 --> 00:01:18.439
were just talking off air. Some
of these they they record the commentary months

14
00:01:18.439 --> 00:01:21.959
in advance, and then for some
reason or another, something gets delayed or

15
00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:25.680
that's just the plan because something isn't
you know, going to be coming out

16
00:01:25.719 --> 00:01:29.000
for so long, but they got
to manufacture everything, and it just seems

17
00:01:29.000 --> 00:01:33.959
like there's a giant glut of Nathaniel
and Troy right now and everybody's hitting it

18
00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:38.920
hard. I'm excited for it though, Yeah, yeah, I people.

19
00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:41.439
It's it's weird, like you'll do
commentary is like months and months apart,

20
00:01:41.439 --> 00:01:42.280
and all of a sudden they hit
the same time, you know. I

21
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:45.719
mean I've had commentaries sit on the
shelf for like a year, so it's

22
00:01:45.840 --> 00:01:49.719
you know, you never know.
That's very true. H John Peter says

23
00:01:49.760 --> 00:01:56.000
Mondo Digital is my go to for
research and reviews, and I've referenced Mondo

24
00:01:56.040 --> 00:01:59.120
Digital. I think when we had
you on here, I said it's been

25
00:01:59.159 --> 00:02:01.079
around since about the dawn of time, and that's about as long as I've

26
00:02:01.079 --> 00:02:07.799
been referencing it. Because the whole
historical aspect for Mondo is so unique,

27
00:02:07.840 --> 00:02:13.439
people don't really reference the upgrades for
these releases and why they are better.

28
00:02:13.919 --> 00:02:16.240
I just again publicly thank you for
doing that. I really wish more people

29
00:02:16.280 --> 00:02:20.599
paid attention to stuff like that.
Yeah, well, thank you. It's

30
00:02:20.639 --> 00:02:22.520
just kind of how it worked out. You know. You start this website

31
00:02:22.599 --> 00:02:24.479
nineteen ninety eight and it's like,
well that's when DVD started. I really

32
00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:27.919
didn't realize it was going to turn
into a big history book, but now

33
00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:30.639
it is. What do you think
you would have said in ninety eight if

34
00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:35.439
somebody would have told you you would
still be reviewing twenty four years later,

35
00:02:36.199 --> 00:02:38.599
getting all these releases sent to you
and on all these discs, how would

36
00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:44.039
you feel? I would I would
feel very happy about that, because the

37
00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:46.120
site's just a labor of love.
I would not believe how many discs I'd

38
00:02:46.159 --> 00:02:50.680
be reviewing. I would have I
kept the fact that it's like quadruple at

39
00:02:50.759 --> 00:02:53.639
least the amount of discum reviewing now
than it was when it started is staggering

40
00:02:53.719 --> 00:02:54.120
me. You're like, oh,
it's good. Media is dead. I'm

41
00:02:54.120 --> 00:02:58.039
like, why am I getting boxes
and every day? Then like, right,

42
00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:00.360
you know, for something that's dying
out, I should see it?

43
00:03:00.479 --> 00:03:04.360
But okay, and that many physical
releases. On top of that, you

44
00:03:04.400 --> 00:03:08.120
stay on top of modern films,
You participate in as much as you possibly

45
00:03:08.120 --> 00:03:12.560
can. You were just recently on
a couple shutter series. It's nice to

46
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:15.360
see you out there, But again, how do you find so much damn

47
00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:23.960
time coffee? That? And I'm
willing to bet you don't have two young

48
00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:30.120
kids like I do, just two
cats. So I'm insanely jealous, that's

49
00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:34.960
for sure. We got a semi
decent amount of announcements this week compared to

50
00:03:35.039 --> 00:03:39.000
last week. We're going to go
through as many of them as are there

51
00:03:39.080 --> 00:03:42.479
for this week. Then we're going
to talk about what's coming out next week.

52
00:03:42.520 --> 00:03:46.039
But throughout the entire time, if
anybody has questions for Nathaniel, any

53
00:03:46.039 --> 00:03:50.120
of the releases that he's on,
thoughts on films, screenings that he's won

54
00:03:50.199 --> 00:03:52.800
too recently, anything like that,
by all means, hit it up in

55
00:03:52.840 --> 00:03:55.680
the chat. Anything you've watched recently
that you want to highlight for everybody.

56
00:03:55.680 --> 00:04:01.199
That's a big, awesome sticking out
point for Yeah, just in terms of

57
00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:03.719
any kind of release at all.
Sure, why not? Yeah, Well,

58
00:04:04.080 --> 00:04:08.479
I just finally watched Weird the Ionicatic
Story, which was a blast.

59
00:04:08.479 --> 00:04:10.639
I highly recommend it. I don't
know if that will ever get a physical

60
00:04:10.639 --> 00:04:14.000
elite because it's a road coupe production. Yeah, I think it's the first

61
00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:15.800
one of those, right, Yeah, to me fund your Diye, we'll

62
00:04:15.800 --> 00:04:18.399
have some kind of deal and like
God willing, we'll get a criteria an

63
00:04:18.439 --> 00:04:24.560
UHD down the road. But you
know, things have happened, that's true,

64
00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:27.560
And I mean we're talking about Criterion
tonight too. That's going to be

65
00:04:27.600 --> 00:04:31.639
an exciting slate in my opinion,
I got a whole bunch of people filing

66
00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:36.319
in now, so we should have
quite a bit of audience participation. Let's

67
00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:41.680
get into it. Sinnapps announced that
they are putting out a standard release of

68
00:04:41.720 --> 00:04:46.399
Phenomena on four K. This is
coming out of March fourteenth. Great movie,

69
00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:50.480
great looking four K disc, No
no difference compared to the Blu ray.

70
00:04:50.879 --> 00:04:55.800
What are your thoughts on Phenomena?
I love the film. I've seen

71
00:04:55.839 --> 00:05:01.600
about eighty bazillion times. It's yeah, back in the day when I was

72
00:05:01.639 --> 00:05:04.639
a wee little whipper snapper at this
an opera my too, must watch Our

73
00:05:04.720 --> 00:05:08.000
Gentles for some reason. I don't
know why it was kept sticking to friends,

74
00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:10.560
but yeah, this is a great
release. This is pretty much everything

75
00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:14.000
you could possibly want. And as
some of you probably must be probably know,

76
00:05:14.079 --> 00:05:16.199
this is identical to the uk ero
UHD set. They had a deal

77
00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:19.720
as with Tennebury, So if you
have one or the other, you're fine.

78
00:05:20.040 --> 00:05:24.040
But I'm glad this is getting a
retail release. It looks gorgeous.

79
00:05:24.360 --> 00:05:28.240
Yeah, if you don't have it, snap it up. This is yeah,

80
00:05:28.360 --> 00:05:31.959
again, beautiful four K release,
and I don't think there's really anything

81
00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:36.120
that they could even add to make
this a better, bigger disc or anything

82
00:05:36.199 --> 00:05:39.120
like that in the future. This
is, in my opinion at lease,

83
00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:43.240
is a definitive release of Phenomena.
It's incredible unless they get Jennifer Connelly to

84
00:05:43.279 --> 00:05:46.120
sit down and talk about it,
which I don't see happening. Touche even

85
00:05:46.120 --> 00:05:48.199
then, just sell that on a
supplement. Blu Ray will throw it in

86
00:05:48.199 --> 00:05:55.160
the case. Keino announced a whole
bunch of titles this week, as they

87
00:05:55.199 --> 00:05:59.319
always do. They're putting out Marco
Polo from sixty two. This is coming

88
00:05:59.319 --> 00:06:02.240
on February, has a new four
K scan of the OCN on this title.

89
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:09.399
This has a new Tim Lucas commentary, and that is it. Marco

90
00:06:09.519 --> 00:06:13.040
Polo. What do you what is
your feeling on this era of films.

91
00:06:13.319 --> 00:06:15.560
I have never seen a good copy
of this. I've only seen on TV

92
00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:17.560
or it was cropped all the hell. But it's a fun movie. I

93
00:06:17.600 --> 00:06:21.040
assume this is going to be the
American release version, which has a really

94
00:06:21.079 --> 00:06:25.680
great score by Les Baxter, who, if you're a soundtrack nut, he

95
00:06:25.680 --> 00:06:29.120
did all the Vincent price you know, Poe movies. He did all the

96
00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:31.000
US version of the Mariobaba movies,
but has this really kind of nice,

97
00:06:31.040 --> 00:06:34.759
really sort of lounge epics score,
which was only in the American version.

98
00:06:34.800 --> 00:06:39.279
Overseas had a different score, So
it'll be nice to have because it's it's

99
00:06:39.279 --> 00:06:42.319
always looked like garbage before. So
yeah, I'm really curious to see how

100
00:06:42.319 --> 00:06:46.319
the transfer is. Yeah, I've
certainly never seen this one. This is

101
00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:51.639
a little outside of my usual go
to fair, but still interested in seeing

102
00:06:51.639 --> 00:06:56.439
it. Roy Calhoun has done quite
a few good things, and I love

103
00:06:56.439 --> 00:07:01.399
good score, so why not?
Uh Severn their next title for Black Friday,

104
00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:08.800
and this one sounds really interesting.
This is twenty sixteen's Blood On.

105
00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:11.560
I never know how to say this
guy's last night? Do you know how

106
00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:14.800
to say? It? Is?
Emily No? Yay? Well, yeah,

107
00:07:14.879 --> 00:07:18.360
that's right. This one is an
Inner Vision title. Actually, this

108
00:07:18.519 --> 00:07:26.759
is Luigi Kotzi's first feature in twenty
seven years. Wrote directed and stars in

109
00:07:26.800 --> 00:07:30.439
this one himself. This has a
whole bunch of little features on it.

110
00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:34.439
We got an introduction by Luigi himself, We got introduction to the Little Wizards

111
00:07:34.439 --> 00:07:38.600
of Oz that's on here. That's
a bonus movie. They're including from twenty

112
00:07:38.600 --> 00:07:41.600
eighteen. We got a making of
both of them, and then a little

113
00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:47.319
art piece on the Little Wizards of
Oz and then a trip to Alain schlacka

114
00:07:47.519 --> 00:07:53.240
founder of La kan Fantastique magazine.
A lot of good stuff coming on here.

115
00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:58.480
Luigi Kotzi, What do you appreciate
about Luigi Kotzi, Well, he

116
00:07:58.560 --> 00:08:01.800
is one of the sweet guyst in
my entire life, so I appreciate that,

117
00:08:03.519 --> 00:08:05.800
as you can kind of I can
tell from the cover art. But

118
00:08:05.079 --> 00:08:09.920
he actually runs the Profondo Rosso store
which is in Rome, so if you

119
00:08:09.959 --> 00:08:11.519
ever are there, definitely check it
out. He's usually in there like in

120
00:08:11.560 --> 00:08:16.160
the afternoons, like after around two
o'clock. But so the first time I

121
00:08:16.199 --> 00:08:18.000
got to go in there, I
hung out with him for quite a long

122
00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:20.959
time when were gibbergeabbring a lot about
Italian horror movies and stuff. But he's

123
00:08:20.040 --> 00:08:24.160
just a fantastic guy. I've never
seen Little Misards of Oz, hadn't even

124
00:08:24.160 --> 00:08:26.399
heard of it before, so I'm
really curious about what that is. But

125
00:08:26.680 --> 00:08:28.920
yeah, this movie is nuts.
This is very sort of like a meta

126
00:08:28.920 --> 00:08:31.839
thing. They shot a lot of
it. He has like there's actually a

127
00:08:31.839 --> 00:08:33.960
documentary that he just put out about
this as well. But if you go

128
00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:37.159
in the store, there's actually like
a staircase that goes like subterranean and they

129
00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:41.120
have like a whole like quasi dungeon
thing. All the props from like demons

130
00:08:41.120 --> 00:08:43.840
in the Church and phenomena, like
all that stuff is all down in there,

131
00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:46.000
and it's like you're you feel like
you're stuck in a torture chamber.

132
00:08:46.039 --> 00:08:48.559
It's it's really crazy. So yeah, it's it's a wild movie. This

133
00:08:48.759 --> 00:08:52.039
is for those of us that are
never gonna be able to make it to

134
00:08:52.039 --> 00:08:54.600
Italy. This is the best way
to see all of it. It's good

135
00:08:54.679 --> 00:09:01.120
enough. Next up Blue Underground,
we got some release dates and some details

136
00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:09.000
on two incredible releases and some obviously
familiar names in these listings here February twenty.

137
00:09:09.000 --> 00:09:13.679
First, on four K, we
are getting Justine from nineteen sixty nine.

138
00:09:15.320 --> 00:09:18.399
This has a really kind of fun
slipcover. It's got a little window

139
00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:22.159
die cut design here, and this
is what it's gonna look like when you

140
00:09:22.159 --> 00:09:26.960
pull that slipcover off. And on
this one we got a new audio commentary

141
00:09:28.200 --> 00:09:35.960
with Nathaniel and Troy Howarth. And
then yeah, this one sounds great.

142
00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:39.519
Stephen Throwern Justine. We got an
interview with the author of Murderous Passions,

143
00:09:39.519 --> 00:09:43.480
of course, and then new on
set with Jess featurette interview with star Rosalba

144
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:48.480
Nari. There is a new expanded
poster in Steel Gallery. But the cool

145
00:09:48.519 --> 00:09:54.039
thing Sanctuary, the shorter US version
in HD is on this and if I

146
00:09:54.080 --> 00:09:58.519
remember right, Troy was saying this
is included because he and you brought it

147
00:09:58.600 --> 00:10:01.080
up on the commentary and they heard
it. Is that right? Probably?

148
00:10:01.159 --> 00:10:03.120
Yeah, because yeah, I think
we both actually in a week kind of

149
00:10:03.159 --> 00:10:07.159
prefer that. That's the worst that
was on you on VHS in America.

150
00:10:07.600 --> 00:10:09.519
Now that's why I first saw it. But it's like all the fun stuff

151
00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:11.240
is in the movie, it just
trims out. There's a lot less to

152
00:10:11.399 --> 00:10:15.559
walking through the woods and all the
filler stuff. There's less of it.

153
00:10:15.679 --> 00:10:18.120
So in a way, I kind
of liked that version better. So I'm

154
00:10:18.120 --> 00:10:20.440
really overjoyed that's going to be on
there because that was not on the Blue

155
00:10:20.519 --> 00:10:24.360
ray, so it's that alone.
It did never even had HD release anywhere

156
00:10:24.399 --> 00:10:28.120
for that shorter version, right,
right, correct, Yeah, it hasn't

157
00:10:28.120 --> 00:10:31.399
been around since like the Mono avhs
back in the eighties. So yeah,

158
00:10:31.519 --> 00:10:35.440
yeah, awesome, that is great
to hear. But that's not even the

159
00:10:35.440 --> 00:10:41.720
only one. We are also getting
Marquis de Sade's philosophy in the Boudoir or

160
00:10:41.919 --> 00:10:45.879
Eugenie, depending on how you know
it, and this as well as getting

161
00:10:45.919 --> 00:10:48.399
one of those window cut slip covers. When you open it up it looks

162
00:10:48.639 --> 00:10:54.679
like this. Uh. This one
has a new audio commentary with Troy Nathaniel

163
00:10:54.720 --> 00:10:58.480
as well, interview with the director
that was on the old release, Stephen

164
00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:03.240
Thriller on Eugenie, and then Jack
Taylor in the Franco Verse an interview with

165
00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:09.399
Jack Taylor himself. So these two
films sell some of the fans on these

166
00:11:09.399 --> 00:11:11.759
two films, Well, these are
Jess Franco in his prime. This is

167
00:11:11.759 --> 00:11:15.240
when he had the biggest budgets he
ever had his whole career. So you

168
00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:18.559
can see him just going nuts with
like like the local I mean just crazy

169
00:11:18.559 --> 00:11:20.919
locations all over Europe and the colorful
gel lighting. And he has big stars

170
00:11:20.919 --> 00:11:24.679
in these things. I mean this
one is got Christopher Lee in this one.

171
00:11:24.840 --> 00:11:26.759
I mean it's you've got Jack Palance
in the other one. I mean,

172
00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:31.360
it's really really fun. Usually is
probably the better one to start with

173
00:11:31.399 --> 00:11:35.399
if you're not familiar with these movies, It's it's really great. It's probably

174
00:11:35.399 --> 00:11:37.840
one of them. It's one of
my very favorite Marquis de sadd films.

175
00:11:37.840 --> 00:11:39.399
It kind of just gets that kind
of spirit down. It's not that explicit.

176
00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:43.279
It's got like a very early X
rating back like you around nineteen seventy,

177
00:11:43.320 --> 00:11:46.360
which is like a very soft R
rating now. An ex back then

178
00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:50.279
was a whole different thing. But
that Cowboy was AX, which is silly.

179
00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:52.759
But yeah, this is a really
really fun film. It's beautifully shot,

180
00:11:54.360 --> 00:11:56.279
since you know it's in like super
wide screen, just really really gorgeous.

181
00:11:56.279 --> 00:11:58.840
But I mean, so it is
Justine. Justine's more of a sort

182
00:11:58.879 --> 00:12:03.440
of prestige film. It's not quite
as crazy and wild, but it's definitely

183
00:12:03.519 --> 00:12:05.840
picking up as well. And I
also just got to recommend the Steven Thrower

184
00:12:05.919 --> 00:12:09.440
pieces on all these Just Franco titles
coming out for Severn and Blunderground are just

185
00:12:09.480 --> 00:12:13.679
incredible. I love every supplement that
guy's ever done. But he always blows

186
00:12:13.720 --> 00:12:16.120
me away with some of the stuff
he picks out of these movies, Like

187
00:12:16.159 --> 00:12:20.840
his brain is just really something else. And also Troy and I did a

188
00:12:20.840 --> 00:12:22.720
third Franco film that's coming to UHD, but I think they kind of soft

189
00:12:22.759 --> 00:12:26.320
announced it, but I don't know
if I can talk about it on here,

190
00:12:26.360 --> 00:12:30.840
But there is a third one coming. Really see nice in the Land

191
00:12:30.840 --> 00:12:35.840
of Francos, which are the short
series that Thrower did for the Severn releases.

192
00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:39.600
I'm so glad they're continuing those.
Thrower is one of these people that

193
00:12:39.679 --> 00:12:43.240
you just now associate with Severn and
everything that he's been doing with them.

194
00:12:43.679 --> 00:12:48.240
He is producing a lot of these
extras himself. He is just super passionate

195
00:12:48.240 --> 00:12:54.399
about it. And there is a
short piece about Thrower that we're gonna be

196
00:12:54.440 --> 00:12:56.919
hearing more about this coming weekend and
one of my other videos. But yeah,

197
00:12:56.960 --> 00:13:03.759
Thrower is great. He's just doable
at everything he does. Yeah.

198
00:13:03.799 --> 00:13:09.120
Next up, we got another announcement
of Dark Places from nineteen seventy three.

199
00:13:09.159 --> 00:13:13.440
This is coming from Nucleus Films in
the UK. This is a standalone Christopher

200
00:13:13.480 --> 00:13:18.480
Lee film that was in the Christopher
Lee Box Volume one, I believe,

201
00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:24.840
and it looks like they've got all
kind if I'm remembering right, all of

202
00:13:24.840 --> 00:13:30.120
the special features from the Severn disc
including Daniel Thompson and Troy's audio commentary on

203
00:13:30.159 --> 00:13:33.039
there, right, plus a new
one and the second commentary as well that

204
00:13:33.120 --> 00:13:37.320
was not on there, so you
get even more nice And Yeah, this

205
00:13:37.360 --> 00:13:41.080
one's coming on February twenty seventh.
I'm assuming you can probably get this in

206
00:13:41.120 --> 00:13:46.960
the US eventually it places like Orbit
DVD, maybe Diabolic, because as far

207
00:13:46.000 --> 00:13:50.600
as I'm wore, seven had no
plans of selling this by itself just in

208
00:13:50.639 --> 00:13:54.320
that box. Yeah, yeah,
it looks like a really good upgrade.

209
00:13:56.320 --> 00:14:01.440
Nice art too. Yeah. Keino
announced No Man is an Island from nineteen

210
00:14:01.480 --> 00:14:05.559
sixty two. This is not one
that I'm familiar with at all. Have

211
00:14:05.559 --> 00:14:09.399
you seen this one? I have? This is a really good movie.

212
00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:11.799
Actually, Universe will put it out
on DVD a long time ago. It's

213
00:14:11.879 --> 00:14:15.279
kind of like a one man SURVII
able movie takes place from World War two.

214
00:14:15.360 --> 00:14:18.159
Jeffrey Hunter, who's kind of a
really underrated actory. He gets sort

215
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:20.600
of stuck in the middle of the
Pacific and he has to sort of like

216
00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:22.879
figure how to fight off the Japanese
all by himself. But it's really good.

217
00:14:24.440 --> 00:14:26.159
I actually have a scoop for you. This will also have an audio

218
00:14:26.200 --> 00:14:30.200
commentary on it by Steve Mitchell and
Steven J. Rubin who wrote all the

219
00:14:30.200 --> 00:14:33.440
great Jings Bond books. They're kind
of like the big Dual War movie commentaries.

220
00:14:33.440 --> 00:14:35.639
But they just recorded that and they
said that I can actually give you

221
00:14:35.679 --> 00:14:39.240
the first word that they actually could
do a track. It's in the canon,

222
00:14:39.279 --> 00:14:41.320
it will be on the disc.
Nice. That's pretty damn cool because

223
00:14:41.320 --> 00:14:45.440
a lot of these old titles.
You know, people used to kind of

224
00:14:45.440 --> 00:14:48.600
look down on Qino for not doing
a lot for their discs, and since

225
00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:52.799
around like the end of twenty eighteen
or maybe twenty nineteen, they've really been

226
00:14:52.840 --> 00:14:56.320
trying. Kino's kind of killing it
pretty quietly, especially with that volume of

227
00:14:56.320 --> 00:15:01.440
titles. Yeah, I mean they
announced I think we're doing five or six

228
00:15:01.440 --> 00:15:03.879
announcements tonight that are just Keno,
and they'll be putting out five or six

229
00:15:03.919 --> 00:15:11.679
every week. So next one is
a true Love from nineteen eighty nine coming

230
00:15:11.679 --> 00:15:16.120
from Keno. This has a brand
new two K master. This is co

231
00:15:16.159 --> 00:15:20.679
written by Richard Key and co written
and directed by Nancy Savoca. I again

232
00:15:20.919 --> 00:15:24.720
don't know anything about this one.
This is one I don't think I'd ever

233
00:15:24.759 --> 00:15:28.399
even heard of. This is one
I haven't seen this since well, I

234
00:15:28.440 --> 00:15:30.879
said eighty nine Film Festival I don't
think i've seen this since around ninety or

235
00:15:30.919 --> 00:15:33.840
ninety one when it hit VHS.
Back when I was a little stool kid

236
00:15:33.840 --> 00:15:37.559
working at a video store, we
had this like playing a few times because

237
00:15:37.559 --> 00:15:41.720
this was all customers rants. We
put on the red TV a few times.

238
00:15:41.759 --> 00:15:43.840
But nice, Yeah, I remember
being pretty good. But if you

239
00:15:43.879 --> 00:15:46.440
asked me for the specifics, it's
way way way off. Sorry, but

240
00:15:46.919 --> 00:15:50.639
a good movie, as I recall, that's good. Yeah, nineteen eighty

241
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:56.279
nine. In it one of the
Park City, Utah, United States Film

242
00:15:56.279 --> 00:16:02.600
Festival. Ken Russell's Horror is coming
from Keno Lber. This is one that

243
00:16:02.639 --> 00:16:07.360
was released fairly recently from Imprint in
Australia. They put out a great disc.

244
00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:10.799
I'm willing to bet it's going to
be the exact same master. As

245
00:16:10.879 --> 00:16:15.279
far as no do we know more? That's up in the air actually because

246
00:16:15.679 --> 00:16:18.039
interesting. Okay, so this movie
has a weird history on home video.

247
00:16:18.039 --> 00:16:22.279
There are actually four versions that put
out on VHS, which is really bizarre.

248
00:16:22.320 --> 00:16:26.200
So back this is back when Blockbuster
was king, so there was a

249
00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:30.279
very cut R rated version. There
was also a version where they didn't want

250
00:16:30.279 --> 00:16:32.320
to have the title on the shelves. It was called if you can't say

251
00:16:32.320 --> 00:16:33.600
it, just see it, which
has me with the stupidest retitlings of all

252
00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:38.000
time. Then there's an unrated version
in the theatrical NC seventeen version. So

253
00:16:38.159 --> 00:16:41.639
if you got the imprint, here's
where it's confusing. That got an Australian

254
00:16:41.759 --> 00:16:45.519
R rating, but it's not the
R rated version. It's the theatrical version,

255
00:16:45.519 --> 00:16:48.919
which is eighty five minutes. But
there's an even longer ninety two minute

256
00:16:48.960 --> 00:16:52.159
one that was on VHS and has
never been on any other format. So

257
00:16:52.679 --> 00:16:56.360
apparently Kino is aware and they're trying
to see if they can source film scans

258
00:16:56.360 --> 00:16:59.360
for both versions on there. I
don't know if that's going to happen.

259
00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:02.120
It's up in the air, so
it might be the same as the imprint

260
00:17:02.240 --> 00:17:04.519
or it might not. At least
they know about it. It's actually not

261
00:17:06.000 --> 00:17:08.240
more explicit stuff in those extra minutes. It's actually just a lot more filler.

262
00:17:08.880 --> 00:17:12.279
There's like one scene that goes on
and on and on forever. Honestly,

263
00:17:12.279 --> 00:17:15.000
if we're going to show this movie
to somebody for the first time,

264
00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:17.599
I might actually go for the eighty
five minute one that they was on the

265
00:17:17.599 --> 00:17:19.079
imprint. But if they can do
both cuts. That would be awesome because

266
00:17:19.079 --> 00:17:22.960
it would be great to have the
choice. So FYI, We're gonna have

267
00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:26.279
to wait and see what it is. Interesting. I'm curious too if they're

268
00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:29.960
going to be able to license the
imprint special features, because this had some

269
00:17:30.039 --> 00:17:33.279
really great stuff in Australia. We
had a Bruce lea Bruce interview that was

270
00:17:33.359 --> 00:17:37.079
really well done. There is a
really nice Cat Ellinger essay that's on that

271
00:17:37.160 --> 00:17:42.200
disc, and yeah, this thing
was plus we got updated interviews with Teresa

272
00:17:42.240 --> 00:17:47.680
Russell and Ginger Linn and yeah,
this was a really great imprint disc.

273
00:17:47.720 --> 00:17:51.359
This is one that shined. But
I'm I'm stoked if we can get the

274
00:17:51.359 --> 00:17:56.039
longer one here for sure. Yeah, especially because some of the paramount stuff

275
00:17:56.079 --> 00:17:59.880
has been sort of ify. Some
of them are good, some of them

276
00:17:59.880 --> 00:18:03.200
are are kind of not as great. They seem to be older masters.

277
00:18:03.640 --> 00:18:10.440
Yeah, that's not the warriors be
careful with paramount titles. That's true.

278
00:18:11.200 --> 00:18:14.799
We'll probably talk about this one in
detail in just a few minutes. We'll

279
00:18:14.799 --> 00:18:18.880
get back to that. Sinnapps is
having a sale over at Diabolic right now.

280
00:18:18.920 --> 00:18:22.920
This is going on through November twenty
eighth, as well as a bunch

281
00:18:22.920 --> 00:18:26.440
of other sales. The Criterion sale
will end on November twenty eighth at Barnes

282
00:18:26.480 --> 00:18:30.559
and Noble. The Arrow Sale at
Barnes and Nobles also ending on the twenty

283
00:18:30.599 --> 00:18:34.119
eighth. But they got some pretty
decent prices over at Diabolic right now,

284
00:18:34.680 --> 00:18:41.039
Nathaniel, any really great synapse recommendations
you would throw out for people? What

285
00:18:41.079 --> 00:18:45.279
would I not recommend? I would
say, if you haven't go back on

286
00:18:45.279 --> 00:18:48.599
some of their deeper catalog stuff you
might have missed, especially some of the

287
00:18:48.680 --> 00:18:49.680
other things they put out, like
Hands of the Repper and Twins of Evil

288
00:18:49.720 --> 00:18:55.680
As are just fantastic. Disks that
are still around us are great. Kindred

289
00:18:55.799 --> 00:18:57.599
is really fun. What they put
out Master at Central High as great.

290
00:18:59.400 --> 00:19:03.759
They're Demon release is fantastic. Yeah, I've sick about confidence just about anything

291
00:19:03.799 --> 00:19:08.480
they put out. I think more
people need to see Curtains and Intruders still,

292
00:19:08.599 --> 00:19:12.200
especially Intruder. Intruder is such a
unique movie to watch with the twenty

293
00:19:12.200 --> 00:19:17.680
twenty two lens. I really am
surprised that we still don't have like an

294
00:19:17.759 --> 00:19:21.359
updated slasher in a setting like that. Yeah, I am too. Intruder's

295
00:19:21.400 --> 00:19:23.680
great, and yeah, huge ones
up for Curtains. I love Curtains.

296
00:19:23.960 --> 00:19:29.400
Curtains is genuinely really creepy. Yeah, it's like two scenes in particular as

297
00:19:29.440 --> 00:19:33.480
like two of the best slasher scenes
ever. Agreed. Another seven title got

298
00:19:33.519 --> 00:19:38.240
announced and I'm really stoked on this
one. Nineteen eighty one's The Devil's Gate.

299
00:19:40.400 --> 00:19:45.319
This one is a two disc collection
including Mario Bava's final film. So

300
00:19:45.559 --> 00:19:52.279
this is a six hour long based
on six hour long films based on stories

301
00:19:52.279 --> 00:19:59.039
by nineteenth century horror fantasy author from
such directors as Giolo Questi who did Django

302
00:19:59.119 --> 00:20:02.759
Kill, Marcello Aliprandi, who did
a Whisper in the Dark, and Giovanni

303
00:20:02.839 --> 00:20:07.079
Gagliardo I'm probably saying all those wrong, who did Street of Mirrors. And

304
00:20:07.480 --> 00:20:11.519
this is really cool because again the
final work of Mario Bava is in this,

305
00:20:11.680 --> 00:20:14.720
and it's the debut of his son, Lamberto Baba as co director.

306
00:20:15.279 --> 00:20:18.240
And those are the ones that we're
getting an HD. The other ones are

307
00:20:18.279 --> 00:20:25.359
getting I believe SD masters on another
disc. But this is just really cool

308
00:20:25.400 --> 00:20:29.240
for them that we got an audio
commentary for that Mario Bava disc with Tim

309
00:20:29.319 --> 00:20:33.480
Lucas, who did you know Mario
Bava? All the colors of the Dark

310
00:20:33.759 --> 00:20:37.920
We've got an interview with the screenwriter
and co director Lamberto Bava. We got

311
00:20:37.960 --> 00:20:41.359
some other stuff in here, but
this is just a really nice curio piece

312
00:20:41.400 --> 00:20:45.319
to get in HD. I'm shocked
that we're getting something like this. I

313
00:20:45.359 --> 00:20:47.720
think a lot of folks are shocked
this is actually coming to Blu Ray because

314
00:20:47.720 --> 00:20:48.839
it seemed like kind of like very
unlikely. But yeah, I've only seen

315
00:20:48.839 --> 00:20:52.720
the Mario Baba when I've seen the
other parts, so I'm really curious about

316
00:20:52.720 --> 00:20:56.079
this one. It's going to be
quite experienced. But I'm really excited they're

317
00:20:56.079 --> 00:20:59.079
putting this one out. Yeah,
the Bava is great. It's been like

318
00:20:59.079 --> 00:21:02.759
a fan subtitle version out there if
you were in the gray market, if

319
00:21:02.799 --> 00:21:04.039
you really hunted really hard. But
yes, and it served out a commercial

320
00:21:04.039 --> 00:21:08.880
releaser before ever, so it's really
exciting. And supposedly they were able to

321
00:21:08.920 --> 00:21:12.559
get good enough elements for only that
one story, so it's nice that we're

322
00:21:12.599 --> 00:21:15.440
able to get that one. But
man, it'd be great to get some

323
00:21:15.440 --> 00:21:19.319
of these older things, you know, archived properly back in the day and

324
00:21:19.359 --> 00:21:26.000
actually restored properly. But yeah,
d darn. They are also doing a

325
00:21:26.119 --> 00:21:30.000
Bava enamel pin as part of their
Hall of Fame pin set from pixel Alixer.

326
00:21:30.559 --> 00:21:33.319
Looks really nice. That'll be a
part of Black Friday, of course.

327
00:21:34.240 --> 00:21:38.880
The Adventures of Batman, the nineteen
sixty eight series. This is the

328
00:21:38.880 --> 00:21:47.599
one that we got from Casey Kaseum
being on a co founder and host provided

329
00:21:47.599 --> 00:21:51.079
the voice of Batman on this one
before Adam West came back, I think

330
00:21:51.119 --> 00:21:55.400
for the next series after that,
if I remember right. And this is

331
00:21:55.400 --> 00:21:57.440
getting a release on February twenty eighth. This is one that a lot of

332
00:21:57.480 --> 00:22:02.359
people did not think we were gonna
get on home video. But yeah,

333
00:22:02.400 --> 00:22:06.400
are you a Batman personnel or comics
at all? Yeah? I actually remember

334
00:22:06.480 --> 00:22:07.440
the show beck On was on TV
who I was a little kid, but

335
00:22:07.480 --> 00:22:10.920
I haven't seen it in decades,
but I've being a lot of fun,

336
00:22:10.960 --> 00:22:14.079
so I hope it still is.
Yeah. This is one that not a

337
00:22:14.079 --> 00:22:15.160
lot of people have been able to
see for quite some time, and to

338
00:22:15.160 --> 00:22:19.799
get a good, brand new restoration
is pretty damn exciting. I hope we

339
00:22:19.839 --> 00:22:26.240
get some good stuff on that disc. Smile, the movie that so many

340
00:22:26.240 --> 00:22:30.200
people are talking about this year because
it got so much money that they are

341
00:22:30.000 --> 00:22:33.839
throwing more money at Horror over at
the studio here. But this is getting

342
00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:37.480
a good four K release that looks
like from Paramount, and this is coming

343
00:22:37.559 --> 00:22:41.119
on December thirteenth. We got some
actual special features on it. We got

344
00:22:41.160 --> 00:22:45.480
an audio commentary by the director the
original short film that inspired it is going

345
00:22:45.559 --> 00:22:48.559
to be on it, which is
pretty damn cool. There's a making of

346
00:22:48.680 --> 00:22:52.920
featurette and then inside the score featurette
which I think the score for this was

347
00:22:52.920 --> 00:22:59.000
actually pretty good. Then we got
some deleted scenes with optional commentary smile.

348
00:22:59.160 --> 00:23:00.920
I'm sure you saw this. When
would you think of smile? I did.

349
00:23:00.960 --> 00:23:03.480
Yeah, this is a fun one. I mean, it seems like

350
00:23:03.519 --> 00:23:07.359
a no brainer. It's getting a
four K release. I'm it's kind of

351
00:23:07.400 --> 00:23:08.920
bizarre if your horror fan, like
seeing which film's merit four k's and which

352
00:23:08.960 --> 00:23:12.559
ones don't. Yeah, this one
would. Meanwhile, Pearl and Ex still

353
00:23:12.559 --> 00:23:15.039
haven't gotten four k's over here.
WI seems bizarre to me because those were,

354
00:23:15.359 --> 00:23:18.400
you know, pretty big. But
yeah, I'm happy this is getting

355
00:23:18.440 --> 00:23:22.039
one. He also pats off this
has probably the greatest marketing campaign in the

356
00:23:22.119 --> 00:23:26.000
entire year as far as I'm concerned. If if you didn't see what they

357
00:23:26.000 --> 00:23:27.279
did at sporting events and things like
that they would have firstmanch jump up and

358
00:23:27.319 --> 00:23:30.359
so they do the smile on camera, which I think is just a genius.

359
00:23:30.359 --> 00:23:33.160
I can't like, no one stought
of doing something like that before.

360
00:23:33.559 --> 00:23:37.319
But yeah, Paramounts sub marketing department
really went into overdrive on this one.

361
00:23:37.759 --> 00:23:41.119
Yeah, we talked about this marketing
stunt on the channel a little while ago

362
00:23:41.200 --> 00:23:45.960
because a friend of the channel,
John Marsco, is the broadcast director of

363
00:23:47.000 --> 00:23:48.599
the New York Mets, and that
was the first game they did it at,

364
00:23:48.920 --> 00:23:53.720
and one of his cameras happened to
capture the lady standing in the stands

365
00:23:55.119 --> 00:23:57.440
and then just showed her all night
long because it was just so creepy,

366
00:23:57.920 --> 00:24:00.799
and then it just went viral,
and then they did it at a handful

367
00:24:00.880 --> 00:24:04.359
more games. I think it was
mostly in New York. But so great

368
00:24:04.400 --> 00:24:08.200
that they did something like that and
it worked clearly. Yeah, obviously,

369
00:24:08.279 --> 00:24:14.599
Yeah, just absolutely. Bryant Josephine
in the comment says, question for Nathaniel,

370
00:24:14.599 --> 00:24:21.599
what is your favorite costuming in a
horror movie? Wow? Interesting question.

371
00:24:22.279 --> 00:24:23.319
I would Well, there's a lot
of Japanese ones I would pick.

372
00:24:23.359 --> 00:24:27.119
I think something like House for example. Obviously got to say gruns Storker's Dracula.

373
00:24:27.200 --> 00:24:30.519
I mean, that's that's probably the
most out right, out in your

374
00:24:30.559 --> 00:24:34.960
face choice. I think Suspiria the
original has some pretty amazing costumes in it

375
00:24:36.000 --> 00:24:37.960
as well that I really like.
Yeah, top mad, I would say

376
00:24:37.960 --> 00:24:42.839
those well. Obviously the Universal Monster
movies have some phenomenal ones. Dracula's daughter

377
00:24:42.880 --> 00:24:48.359
I think, especially just that thing
she's wearing. It's so cool. Ice

378
00:24:51.559 --> 00:24:56.480
White Woman from nineteen thirty three is
coming from Keno Lober on February fourteenth.

379
00:24:56.680 --> 00:25:00.519
We had a brand new two K
scan of the thirty five millimeters fine grain

380
00:25:00.599 --> 00:25:04.200
elements on this one, new audio
commentary by Alan R. Kush and Daniel

381
00:25:04.279 --> 00:25:08.920
Kreamer on this one, and we
got Carol Lombard Charles Lawton starring in this

382
00:25:10.200 --> 00:25:15.599
and I have not seen it.
I am unfortunately very very blank spot for

383
00:25:15.680 --> 00:25:18.519
me for a lot of the pre
nineteen fifty ish films. I've seen a

384
00:25:18.519 --> 00:25:22.759
lot of the big ones, but
the deep cuts like this unfortunately have missed

385
00:25:22.759 --> 00:25:25.680
me. By have you seen White
Woman? I have not seen this one,

386
00:25:25.720 --> 00:25:27.119
but I am very curious because yeah, they've been really digging through the

387
00:25:27.359 --> 00:25:30.079
Universal vaults. So yeah, I'm
looking forward to seeing this one. It's

388
00:25:30.119 --> 00:25:33.440
a new one to me. Yeah, Charles Lawton obviously great. So yeah,

389
00:25:33.599 --> 00:25:37.759
curious to see this. Another little
bit of an old one from Keno

390
00:25:37.839 --> 00:25:41.880
February seventh, from nineteen fifty eight. We are getting raw wind in Eden.

391
00:25:42.319 --> 00:25:45.960
This is the one that's supposed to
be really great. Actually from what

392
00:25:45.039 --> 00:25:48.680
I looked up, this has a
two K scan of the thirty five millimeter

393
00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:55.480
interpositive new HD master. New audio
commentary on this by David del Valler and

394
00:25:55.759 --> 00:26:00.440
Daniel Kreamer as well. Have you
seen this one. I've seen this,

395
00:26:00.480 --> 00:26:03.680
but I've only seen it super super
cropped. This was a scope But American

396
00:26:03.680 --> 00:26:07.279
Movie AMC back when they're American movie
Classics and actually show you know, movies,

397
00:26:08.200 --> 00:26:11.759
they used to run this back in
the day because they had access to

398
00:26:11.799 --> 00:26:14.960
the Universal Library. And yeah,
I saw this bit was like super zoomed

399
00:26:15.000 --> 00:26:17.480
in. So it's a lot of
fun. It's like very like over the

400
00:26:17.519 --> 00:26:19.720
top melodrama. Yeah, it's a
good from what I recall, it's it's

401
00:26:19.799 --> 00:26:22.440
kind of like almost like a noir
film in a way. But yeah,

402
00:26:22.480 --> 00:26:26.839
we're looking forward to seeing how this
one turns out. Nice. Yeah,

403
00:26:26.960 --> 00:26:30.200
it's nice to see some of these
that have been treated so poorly, not

404
00:26:30.279 --> 00:26:34.759
just even on home video before,
but on even like broadcast or even some

405
00:26:34.799 --> 00:26:37.880
of the times in theaters they were
just not shown properly. So to see

406
00:26:37.880 --> 00:26:41.480
something in twenty twenty two, a
lot of the time, we're seeing it

407
00:26:41.519 --> 00:26:45.960
better than other people have ever seen
some of these releases. Yeah, next

408
00:26:47.039 --> 00:26:49.559
up, we got two coming from
gold Ninja video and neither of us have

409
00:26:49.640 --> 00:26:52.960
seen either of these, but we
spent some time talking about gold Ninja for

410
00:26:53.000 --> 00:26:56.319
a minute before we went live,
and yeah, both of us seem to

411
00:26:56.359 --> 00:27:00.119
love Gold Ninja. This one is
Honeycomb from twenty two twenty two. This

412
00:27:00.480 --> 00:27:04.519
is from Avalon Fast is the name
of the director, and this one says,

413
00:27:04.559 --> 00:27:08.279
in the mundane hours of early summer, five girls sulk in their own

414
00:27:08.319 --> 00:27:12.880
boredom, waiting for something. When
Willow stumbles upon a seemingly abandoned cabin,

415
00:27:14.160 --> 00:27:17.680
she begins fantasizing about the life she
and the girls could have had there.

416
00:27:18.160 --> 00:27:21.839
The leader, Jules, Vicky,
and Millie pack their bags and whisper a

417
00:27:21.880 --> 00:27:25.559
quick goodbye to the life they knew. They flyw sorry. They flow through

418
00:27:25.559 --> 00:27:29.359
open fields, blissfully entering their new
sun soaked world without a thought about the

419
00:27:29.400 --> 00:27:33.839
horrors that lie before them. Really
good copy for a film like this leaves

420
00:27:33.880 --> 00:27:37.680
a lot to be unknown. Here
we got a commentary track by the writer

421
00:27:37.799 --> 00:27:41.039
and director Avalon Fast and the cast. We got Making Movies with Your Friends

422
00:27:41.160 --> 00:27:45.240
featurette, an interview with the writer
and director Avalon Fast, and Bloopers short

423
00:27:45.240 --> 00:27:51.839
film. There's always liner notes when
you get the limited from Gold Ninja,

424
00:27:52.039 --> 00:27:55.440
and then they usually seem to hide
something else, So I would not be

425
00:27:55.480 --> 00:27:59.799
surprised if they've got another film up
their sleeves, hidden in the menu or

426
00:27:59.799 --> 00:28:03.839
something like that Gold Ninja video.
What have you seen from them that you've

427
00:28:03.839 --> 00:28:07.480
really enjoyed? Oh god, yeah, I picked up most of the stuff

428
00:28:07.480 --> 00:28:10.240
they released, and yeah, it's
always a lot of fun. They did

429
00:28:10.240 --> 00:28:12.599
like one called the Other Side of
Gary Braver that was just why, Yeah,

430
00:28:12.640 --> 00:28:15.880
it's crazy. I mean they grabbed
everything they could find that he did.

431
00:28:15.880 --> 00:28:19.440
It wasn't like you know, adult
stuff. Yeah, they really just

432
00:28:19.480 --> 00:28:22.880
like dug through and put some wild
stuff on there. And yeah, like

433
00:28:22.920 --> 00:28:25.480
you said, when you get to
their menu screens, you gotta be like

434
00:28:25.480 --> 00:28:27.680
really diligent, just hit every button
you can think of, because they they're

435
00:28:27.720 --> 00:28:30.400
really sneaky bashers. They hide stuff
all over the place on their desks.

436
00:28:30.839 --> 00:28:33.559
Yeah. Yeah, you get your
money's worth it. You got to make

437
00:28:33.599 --> 00:28:37.559
sure if you're on the menu,
you got to hit up like six times

438
00:28:37.559 --> 00:28:40.440
on everything, hit down a few
times on everything, just to make sure.

439
00:28:40.960 --> 00:28:45.039
They do so much great work on
their releases. They're also putting out

440
00:28:45.079 --> 00:28:48.759
Freaky Farley. This is from two
thousand and seven, and this one got

441
00:28:48.799 --> 00:28:52.039
a brand new two K scan If
I remember right, this is the first

442
00:28:52.039 --> 00:28:56.119
film that they did, or at
least that they were advertising was gonna be

443
00:28:56.119 --> 00:28:59.880
the first one that they scanned with
their brand new film scanner that they got

444
00:29:00.039 --> 00:29:04.640
last year when they did their Indiegogo
campaign. This one says when Farley Wilder,

445
00:29:04.680 --> 00:29:08.000
who is a weirdo peeping tom in
a small New England town, meets

446
00:29:08.000 --> 00:29:11.200
a daring young woman, he gains
the confidence to both stand up to his

447
00:29:11.279 --> 00:29:15.759
overbearing father and also save the town
from the hushed up secret that's been killing

448
00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:21.079
people for decades. Like I said, two K scan from the film super

449
00:29:21.160 --> 00:29:25.960
sixteen millimeter negative. Finally, you
can witness the true beauty of Farley Wilder's

450
00:29:26.000 --> 00:29:30.079
adventures as he makes friends, finds
love, and saves the world from a

451
00:29:30.119 --> 00:29:36.000
monstrous Menace. We got a commentary
on this one by Charles Rocksburg, Matt

452
00:29:36.000 --> 00:29:41.000
Farley and Tom Scalzo, moderated by
the man Justin m'clue who runs Gold Ninja

453
00:29:41.039 --> 00:29:45.119
Video. We got a podcast commentary
as well, look back deleted scenes,

454
00:29:45.160 --> 00:29:52.000
making of shock merrackthon movies that inspired
Freaky Farley, a video discussion the restoration

455
00:29:52.359 --> 00:29:56.079
of it, the Alamo draft House
screening. There's so much on here,

456
00:29:56.079 --> 00:30:00.519
but then they throw in bonus feature
Adventures and Crew Country, and I would

457
00:30:00.559 --> 00:30:04.759
not be surprised if there was a
third film hitting on this discsiwhere probably there's

458
00:30:04.799 --> 00:30:08.799
a commentary on that bonus feature as
well by Matt Farley, Charles Rocksburg and

459
00:30:10.000 --> 00:30:12.759
Justin d'clue. And then of course
Will Sloan, who is one of Justin's

460
00:30:12.839 --> 00:30:17.200
partners of crime. On one of
his podcasts, he did the liner notes.

461
00:30:17.960 --> 00:30:21.400
Both of these you can pre order
now and they are shipping in December.

462
00:30:22.039 --> 00:30:27.720
It sounds great. I am so
curious, Sister Agatha says, Justin

463
00:30:27.759 --> 00:30:33.480
from Gold Ninja curates great marathons on
their important Cinema Club Twitch channel. There's

464
00:30:33.559 --> 00:30:37.519
one coming up in mid December and
you can watch them all. They are

465
00:30:37.759 --> 00:30:41.079
only for the people that are not
weak of heart, because they are usually

466
00:30:41.279 --> 00:30:45.079
very long and very fun, thrilling
bloody sword. This is the one I

467
00:30:45.119 --> 00:30:48.599
was gonna highlight before I walked away. That is one that seemed to catch

468
00:30:48.640 --> 00:30:53.039
the world on fire when that was
announced last year, AGFA started doing theatrical

469
00:30:53.079 --> 00:30:57.519
screenings of the print and now we
got a new disc coming from air four

470
00:30:57.519 --> 00:31:02.559
to four to four in the and
I can't wait to see that one,

471
00:31:02.720 --> 00:31:07.559
even more up to date and restored
properly. I second the recommendtion on Kung

472
00:31:07.559 --> 00:31:12.720
Fu Wonderchild as well. Also their
crazy multidisc Jackie Chansploitation set that they put

473
00:31:12.720 --> 00:31:15.480
out is something else as well,
and again jam with extras. It's a

474
00:31:15.480 --> 00:31:19.759
fun one. The hard part is
a lot of these they get sold out,

475
00:31:21.319 --> 00:31:25.039
not necessarily quickly, but a lot
of the ones when you hear recommendations

476
00:31:25.079 --> 00:31:27.720
now they're gone. And gold Ninja
doesn't do a standard edition or anything like

477
00:31:27.759 --> 00:31:32.319
that. But they're fun to track
down. They're great discs and if anybody

478
00:31:32.400 --> 00:31:34.839
is ever getting rid of them,
I would not hesitate to try to snatch

479
00:31:34.839 --> 00:31:41.759
them up. Next up, one
of the most exciting announcements of the week,

480
00:31:41.839 --> 00:31:45.440
this is one that we've been talking
about seemingly all year since I interviewed

481
00:31:45.720 --> 00:31:51.799
Jared from Mondo Micabre, Jared and
Jesse Nelson from Diabolic and Brian Izzy,

482
00:31:52.000 --> 00:31:56.039
who is also with Jesse Nelson as
part of Cauldron Films. They are all

483
00:31:56.160 --> 00:32:01.880
joining together to start something called Neon
Eagle Video and this just sounds incredible,

484
00:32:02.160 --> 00:32:07.640
a new Asian focused label that will
focus on the trashier side of Asian cinema,

485
00:32:07.960 --> 00:32:12.839
highlighting exploitation, action, horror,
and other cult films that have been

486
00:32:12.839 --> 00:32:17.119
neglected in the high definition era.
Each disc will be lovingly curated and produced

487
00:32:17.119 --> 00:32:22.039
by Jared Honor, with restoration,
authoring, manufacturing, and distribution handled by

488
00:32:22.039 --> 00:32:27.839
Cauldron. Each release will be sold
through Cauldron and Diabolic DVD. They are

489
00:32:27.920 --> 00:32:34.599
working closely with the legendary IFD films
in Hong Kong, and it is sounding

490
00:32:34.720 --> 00:32:37.759
like it's gonna be pretty damn incredible. Have you have you done anything for

491
00:32:37.839 --> 00:32:40.759
them that you could share anything?
Yet? I have not. It was

492
00:32:42.400 --> 00:32:44.480
I knew it was coming, but
that's all I know. I knew the

493
00:32:44.559 --> 00:32:46.880
label was about to be to the
drop and that's yeah, that's that's all

494
00:32:46.920 --> 00:32:50.480
I know. I mean again,
I'm probably not the guy you go to

495
00:32:50.599 --> 00:32:53.599
for Asian extras, so I am
very curiously what they come up with for

496
00:32:53.680 --> 00:32:58.720
these titles. It's going to be
exciting. If you go to the comment

497
00:32:58.799 --> 00:33:04.799
section on some of the Eagle announcements
or Diabolic or Cauldron or Monta Micabre where

498
00:33:04.839 --> 00:33:07.680
they were sharing it, some of
the people that have contributed are in the

499
00:33:07.680 --> 00:33:10.839
comments. You can find out they
do have commentaries and some other featurettes coming

500
00:33:10.880 --> 00:33:15.119
with stuff like that. The first
release has been announced and it is Kill

501
00:33:15.279 --> 00:33:23.759
Butterfly Kill from nineteen eighty seven,
and this sounds just wild. Let's see.

502
00:33:23.880 --> 00:33:29.279
This set will not only have IFDs
nineteen eighty three English language dub,

503
00:33:30.039 --> 00:33:37.079
but it's later nineteen eighty seven variant
called American Commando six Kill Butterfly Kill in

504
00:33:37.200 --> 00:33:42.160
Glorious TENADP taken from a brand new
four K scan, but will also feature

505
00:33:42.200 --> 00:33:46.319
a standard definition print of the original
Taiwanese cut of the film Underground Wife,

506
00:33:46.640 --> 00:33:53.039
along with an SD trailer compilation from
the IFD vaults highlighting Taiwanese exploitation and crime

507
00:33:53.079 --> 00:33:58.839
films, as well as the complete
American Commando series. This is going up

508
00:33:58.880 --> 00:34:04.480
for pre order in November, and
a much anticipated euro horror release from Cauldron

509
00:34:04.519 --> 00:34:07.480
will also be up for pre order, which a lot of people are speculating.

510
00:34:07.519 --> 00:34:12.559
A City of the Living Dead and
four K and then we have Future

511
00:34:12.599 --> 00:34:17.000
releases will include more from IFD,
including some honest to godfree hoe cut and

512
00:34:17.039 --> 00:34:22.159
paste cult classics, as well as
a bona fide pinky violence gem from Toe

513
00:34:22.480 --> 00:34:28.599
and possibly even some insane action exploitation
from Indonesia. Keep an eye on the

514
00:34:28.599 --> 00:34:31.440
Neon Eagle Facebook and of course here
on the Disconnected we'll be talking about it.

515
00:34:32.599 --> 00:34:36.840
Let's see flickering Waves. Wanted to
throw out impossible Horror. I did

516
00:34:36.840 --> 00:34:40.199
not see this in time for gold
Ninja video. Impossible Horror is really interesting.

517
00:34:40.639 --> 00:34:47.800
Yeah, that's fun. Moving on
from NEV to Criterion, this is

518
00:34:47.840 --> 00:34:52.599
one that I've been telling people,
this is probably getting released soon. They

519
00:34:52.599 --> 00:34:55.400
were floating around those new four K
restorations last year. We are getting the

520
00:34:55.559 --> 00:35:02.000
three colors from Christoph Keislawski on UA
HD in a box set on February seventh

521
00:35:02.000 --> 00:35:07.400
from Criterion, and it looks to
me fairly priced. Actually, when you

522
00:35:07.440 --> 00:35:09.159
get it on sale, it's going
to be about sixty two bucks. I

523
00:35:09.199 --> 00:35:15.159
think it's not too bad for these
three films in four K and they're worth

524
00:35:15.159 --> 00:35:16.840
it. I mean they're great films. Yeah, some of the best of

525
00:35:16.840 --> 00:35:22.079
all time. It seems like everybody
has a different favorite in the trilogy,

526
00:35:22.119 --> 00:35:30.079
but they're all just effective films overall. Next up, we are getting the

527
00:35:30.280 --> 00:35:35.719
Romeo and Juliet from nineteen sixty eight
on February fourteenth. A lot of people

528
00:35:35.760 --> 00:35:42.360
know this as the one they watched
in high school. Yep, it was

529
00:35:42.360 --> 00:35:46.119
the one people bragged about because they
could see some chests live in high school.

530
00:35:46.360 --> 00:35:50.920
This one got a new four K
digital restoration, which I'm kind of

531
00:35:50.920 --> 00:35:52.840
shocked with what they're doing with UHD
that they didn't put this one out on

532
00:35:52.920 --> 00:35:57.320
four K. They must not have
either been able to get the rights,

533
00:35:57.519 --> 00:36:01.039
or didn't want to do an HDR
pass or something. We got an excerpt

534
00:36:01.079 --> 00:36:07.360
from the twenty eighteen documentary the interviews
with actors Olivia Hussey and Leonard Whiting from

535
00:36:07.440 --> 00:36:13.000
nineteen sixty seven and twenty sixteen,
and then an essay. But yeah,

536
00:36:13.039 --> 00:36:15.320
this is the one that kind of
surprised me that they put this out.

537
00:36:15.960 --> 00:36:16.679
I'm sure you've seen this one.
What do you think of this one?

538
00:36:17.000 --> 00:36:20.199
Oh? Yeah, this is a
great film. Got I can't belive it

539
00:36:20.239 --> 00:36:22.840
took this long to hit American Blu
Ray and I got the British Blue Ray

540
00:36:22.880 --> 00:36:24.880
like what ten years ago or something. I mean it's been in Europe for

541
00:36:24.920 --> 00:36:28.280
ages. Yeah. IM glad it's
getting a new scan. I hope it

542
00:36:28.280 --> 00:36:30.559
looks good. I mean, you
know, fingers crossed. But yeah,

543
00:36:30.599 --> 00:36:35.320
this is a really great film.
This is one of the betterest Shakespeare adaptations.

544
00:36:35.559 --> 00:36:37.599
Yeah, yeah, it's a it's
a really fun film. Amazing score

545
00:36:37.639 --> 00:36:38.800
by Nina Rota. Yeah, this
is a great one. And yeah,

546
00:36:38.800 --> 00:36:42.960
I just remember scandalizing my junior high
when they showed it to us. But

547
00:36:45.000 --> 00:36:49.960
to be young again. Another four
K upgrade that I've been you know,

548
00:36:50.360 --> 00:36:52.920
expecting for quite some time. Dazed
and Confused is getting upgrade into four K.

549
00:36:53.400 --> 00:36:57.360
No new features on this one,
but I'm sure this one will look

550
00:36:57.440 --> 00:37:00.639
great. Link later and Dazed and
confus Used. I'm sure you got some

551
00:37:00.639 --> 00:37:06.000
sort of history with this one.
It's a masterpiece. I love it every

552
00:37:06.039 --> 00:37:07.920
time I've seen it. I remember
like walking to see this opening weekend in

553
00:37:07.920 --> 00:37:10.840
the theater, not even knowing what
I was in for because the poster was

554
00:37:10.920 --> 00:37:15.519
kind of like but yeah, just
like blew me away. I love the

555
00:37:15.559 --> 00:37:20.159
film seeing it over and over again. You know, as we all know

556
00:37:20.199 --> 00:37:22.679
through a clutter fan, this is
the perfect double feature with Everybody Wants Some,

557
00:37:22.760 --> 00:37:25.480
which hopefully you've all seen as well. But yeah, that guy has

558
00:37:25.480 --> 00:37:30.000
an amazing track record and this is
one of his best. Link Later is

559
00:37:30.000 --> 00:37:32.800
special and this one means a lot
to me. I didn't have a great

560
00:37:32.920 --> 00:37:37.639
childhood coming up, but when this
came out, I saw it way too

561
00:37:37.679 --> 00:37:44.239
young, and unfortunately some of the
scenes stuck with me extra and one of

562
00:37:43.960 --> 00:37:47.480
the good memories that really hit for
my childhood is on of course, the

563
00:37:47.559 --> 00:37:51.840
last day of school. Every year, my dad would pick me up from

564
00:37:51.840 --> 00:37:53.800
school, which was different because I'd
usually ride the bus and he would take

565
00:37:53.840 --> 00:37:59.519
me home blaring schools Out for the
Summer, just on repeat. And that

566
00:38:00.119 --> 00:38:02.360
you know, if you've seen this
movie, it's a it's a big deal.

567
00:38:02.400 --> 00:38:06.840
And this movie's just so well made. It is such a nice little

568
00:38:07.119 --> 00:38:10.559
snapshot and Link Later man, he
is he is special. Link Lead has

569
00:38:10.599 --> 00:38:16.159
got everything that he could possibly need
in his back pocket and really really just

570
00:38:16.239 --> 00:38:23.760
exercise executes them perfectly in this movie. Yeah, next up we are getting

571
00:38:24.159 --> 00:38:30.119
two films by Marguerite dur Us.
This is coming on February twenty eighth.

572
00:38:30.159 --> 00:38:34.960
The two films are India Song from
seventy five and Baxter Verra Baxter from seventy

573
00:38:35.000 --> 00:38:38.679
seven. I am not familiar with
this filmmaker at all, I don't think,

574
00:38:38.719 --> 00:38:44.199
but we're getting new two K digital
restorations on both. What do you

575
00:38:44.239 --> 00:38:47.880
think about her? She has a
very quiet taste. Her films are very

576
00:38:49.119 --> 00:38:52.559
European, They're very slow. A
lot of people who know only know her.

577
00:38:52.599 --> 00:38:55.119
She was a punchline in the John
Waters film Polyester. There's a really

578
00:38:55.119 --> 00:38:59.159
great gag where tap Hunter is actually
running at Marguerite Drost Triple Feature at the

579
00:38:59.199 --> 00:39:02.920
drive in that he runs. Yeah, the Baxter Girl Baxter is one that

580
00:39:02.960 --> 00:39:06.400
stands out to me. These have
both been on the Criterion channel for a

581
00:39:06.400 --> 00:39:09.079
while, but it has what I
think is by far it hands down the

582
00:39:09.079 --> 00:39:13.639
most obnoxious music score of all time
because it never stops. It's like it's

583
00:39:13.679 --> 00:39:19.599
just like four bars of music that
run NonStop for ninety minutes. So brace

584
00:39:19.639 --> 00:39:24.880
yourself. You might want to sample
before you buy, or watch with subtitles

585
00:39:24.880 --> 00:39:31.960
on mute. Yeah, a decent
month from Criterion, ending up with Hollywood

586
00:39:32.079 --> 00:39:37.280
Shuffle One. I am very familiar
with. This movie is incredible, not

587
00:39:37.440 --> 00:39:39.440
one I really thought would get a
disc release, but I'm really glad.

588
00:39:39.480 --> 00:39:45.440
It is kind of kind of weird
that we have keenan Ivory Wayans in the

589
00:39:45.760 --> 00:39:49.800
Criterion collection. Now, this movie
is great. It's a debut feature by

590
00:39:49.880 --> 00:39:54.119
Robert Townsend. This is an ingenious
gorilla satire that takes riotous same at the

591
00:39:54.119 --> 00:39:59.719
type casting of black actors in nineteen
eighties. Hollywood. The writer director stars

592
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:05.480
aegawak charisma propels Hollywood Shuffle, the
hilarious tale of a struggling actor attempting to

593
00:40:05.559 --> 00:40:08.639
break into an industry where the only
roles available to black performers seemed to be

594
00:40:09.039 --> 00:40:14.880
hustlers, butlers, slaves, and
Eddie Murphy types, forcing him to choose

595
00:40:14.920 --> 00:40:19.719
between selling out and maintaining his self
respect. Lampooning everything from film noir to

596
00:40:19.880 --> 00:40:23.280
zombie flicks to Siskel and Ebert.
In a really great little sketch, Townsend

597
00:40:23.280 --> 00:40:28.920
and co writer keenan Ivory Wayans cannily
turned the frustrations of the black artist into

598
00:40:29.000 --> 00:40:34.519
a subversively funny pop culture critique.
Hollywood Shuffle. I'm sure you've seen this

599
00:40:34.559 --> 00:40:37.840
one too many times. I love
this movie to Death one of the most

600
00:40:37.920 --> 00:40:40.599
quotable movies I think, please movie
comedies, at least from the past,

601
00:40:40.719 --> 00:40:44.320
like fifty years it's a great one. There was actually there was a very

602
00:40:44.400 --> 00:40:45.920
under the radar Blue Ey release from
all of the films back in the day

603
00:40:46.000 --> 00:40:50.119
that they didn't put at all,
had no extras at all, which was

604
00:40:50.119 --> 00:40:52.440
really annoying at the time because everybody
was around. So I'm glad they Criteria

605
00:40:52.440 --> 00:40:57.280
finally ponied up and actually got some
decent supplements, because this one definitely deserves

606
00:40:57.280 --> 00:41:00.480
it. You know, I'm not
sure if you're privy to anything that we

607
00:41:00.519 --> 00:41:04.559
aren't. You brought up all the
films, I'm curious. Have you heard

608
00:41:04.599 --> 00:41:09.280
anything about Sandpiper Pictures, this new
boutique that seems to be putting out these

609
00:41:09.280 --> 00:41:13.599
old Twilight Time discs, and people
are speculating they are the people that used

610
00:41:13.599 --> 00:41:15.280
to be behind all the films and
all of it is just supposedly gone now

611
00:41:15.840 --> 00:41:17.840
yeah, oh yeah, I don't
know what happened. Yeah, I guess

612
00:41:17.920 --> 00:41:21.119
they just transitioned over and start a
new label. It would make sense because

613
00:41:21.119 --> 00:41:23.239
they're kind of picking from the same
well, so yeah, could be.

614
00:41:23.639 --> 00:41:28.559
Yeah, I have no idea,
though, interesting but yes, this is

615
00:41:29.119 --> 00:41:31.840
definitely one I recommend. We got
a new audio commentary featuring Robert Townsend on

616
00:41:31.880 --> 00:41:35.920
it. New interviews with some of
the directors are. Some of the actors

617
00:41:36.000 --> 00:41:38.880
are including Rusty Kundiff, Amory Johnson, and Bobby McGhee. We got a

618
00:41:39.000 --> 00:41:45.360
radio program featuring Townsend in conversation with
film critic Ellis Mitchell, and then an

619
00:41:45.519 --> 00:41:50.159
essay by Aisha Harris. I love
the artwork on this as well. I

620
00:41:49.840 --> 00:41:54.119
ye can't wait to pick this one
up. Shout Factory having a box set

621
00:41:54.199 --> 00:42:00.119
sale. This is going on now
until November twenty first, and if if

622
00:42:00.119 --> 00:42:02.960
you don't have a lot of their
stuff, there's actually decent, decent prices

623
00:42:04.000 --> 00:42:07.400
on these. Any Shout Factory box
sets that you've loved, well, just

624
00:42:07.400 --> 00:42:09.800
because the cup looking right of the
cover right here. But I was so

625
00:42:09.920 --> 00:42:13.639
gooddy when they put up the dom
Knots collection because that was the only way

626
00:42:13.639 --> 00:42:15.920
that you could get The Love God
on Blu ray And that's actually my favorite

627
00:42:15.920 --> 00:42:17.960
one. That movie is absolutely out
of its mind, which is crazy,

628
00:42:17.960 --> 00:42:22.800
crazy crazy, It's so much fun. So yeah, just for that alone,

629
00:42:22.800 --> 00:42:24.679
it's worth it. I would say
the fly set is great, the

630
00:42:24.679 --> 00:42:28.599
omen set that they did is really
fantastic. Yeah, a ton of new

631
00:42:28.599 --> 00:42:30.880
extras on that one. They really
went out of their way on that one.

632
00:42:30.119 --> 00:42:35.280
It's really really great. Yeah,
there's a lot to choose from there.

633
00:42:36.079 --> 00:42:38.679
The Omens set is certainly one of
my favorites. I'm so glad that

634
00:42:38.719 --> 00:42:43.000
they were able to get that set
out and to have everything on Blu Ray.

635
00:42:43.559 --> 00:42:46.079
It's just nice. That's one of
those box sets that every film kind

636
00:42:46.079 --> 00:42:52.119
of hits hard if you've grown up
watching the series, especially because you sort

637
00:42:52.159 --> 00:42:54.440
of grow with them, especially with
the ages of Damien in the movies.

638
00:42:54.519 --> 00:43:00.880
Yeah, I've always loved the omend
Next up another keynot title, The Bride

639
00:43:00.920 --> 00:43:06.280
War Black from nineteen sixty eight,
and we do have reversible artwork on this

640
00:43:06.320 --> 00:43:10.119
one, and this is gorgeous.
I wish this could be on a poster.

641
00:43:10.719 --> 00:43:15.599
I love this artwork. We got
an audio comp cohead. I was

642
00:43:15.639 --> 00:43:16.599
gonna say, yeah, if want
to buy the original poster that I'll set

643
00:43:16.599 --> 00:43:20.840
you back about six hundred bucks,
but you know, yeah, uh funny

644
00:43:20.920 --> 00:43:24.199
enough. I looked it up and
I yeah, no thanks, I'm poor,

645
00:43:24.519 --> 00:43:28.800
but yeah, it's it's beautiful looking. We got an audio commentary on

646
00:43:28.880 --> 00:43:32.400
here by Julie Krgo, Steven C. Smith and Nick Redmond and this is

647
00:43:32.519 --> 00:43:37.679
in French with English subs, and
what about this film Nathaniel Obviously we got

648
00:43:37.679 --> 00:43:43.000
Frank Swats Truffau. Yeah, well
this ties into another title we're going to

649
00:43:43.039 --> 00:43:45.039
get to later. But we all
a new Keno had said they had finally

650
00:43:45.039 --> 00:43:47.840
picked up the rights. They're doing
the whole United Artist Truefou Library, which

651
00:43:47.880 --> 00:43:52.119
is great because very few have been
on blue ray over here. Yeah,

652
00:43:52.159 --> 00:43:55.280
we only got this one and Mississippi
Mermaid and the Story of at Lah.

653
00:43:55.440 --> 00:43:59.639
Only ones the Twilight Time did over
here, And what really sucks is all

654
00:43:59.639 --> 00:44:02.880
three of them the Master's Mtim gave
them they had burned in big yellow subtitles

655
00:44:02.880 --> 00:44:06.760
and they were hideous. So but
they actually called I was glad when the

656
00:44:06.760 --> 00:44:08.239
announced this. They actually call out
that these have optional subtitles, and I

657
00:44:08.280 --> 00:44:12.400
was like, thank you God,
so especially as the most projectors don't have

658
00:44:12.400 --> 00:44:15.679
to put up with that garbage anymore, because they were the ugly subtitles I've

659
00:44:15.679 --> 00:44:19.480
ever seen. So yeah, I'm
so appreciative. In this movie is just

660
00:44:19.480 --> 00:44:22.320
a ton of fun. If you're
a fan of kill Bill, this one.

661
00:44:22.760 --> 00:44:24.480
Tennis Get mentioned a lot because it
has kind of similar like kill this

662
00:44:24.639 --> 00:44:30.440
thing where she's out to kill off
the guys who shot her her groom at

663
00:44:30.480 --> 00:44:35.280
their wedding, So sounds familiar just
a little bit. Yeah, this is

664
00:44:35.320 --> 00:44:37.760
one I definitely have to pick up. It looks like a great release.

665
00:44:37.840 --> 00:44:43.119
But again, audio commentaries and all
that. Keno's just quietly killing it.

666
00:44:44.360 --> 00:44:49.880
I've heard of that guy. Next
up, some Eureka announcements, Magnificent Warriors

667
00:44:49.960 --> 00:44:53.280
with Michelle Yo. This is coming
in February on the twentieth in the UK.

668
00:44:53.480 --> 00:44:58.280
Of course, this is one of
Michelle Yo's most popular titles, and

669
00:44:58.599 --> 00:45:01.199
this has some great actions sequences in
it. This one is a lot of

670
00:45:01.239 --> 00:45:06.119
fun. Obviously, We've got a
lot of great stuff coming on here,

671
00:45:06.159 --> 00:45:12.079
including new feature length audio commentary by
Frank Jang. Just a little tease here.

672
00:45:12.119 --> 00:45:14.639
Frank is going to be on the
channel in about a month or so,

673
00:45:14.800 --> 00:45:16.760
I think, and then Michael Worth
is going to be with him on

674
00:45:16.800 --> 00:45:23.039
that new feature length audio commentary again
by Mike Leader and Arna Venema, new

675
00:45:23.079 --> 00:45:28.960
interview with Richard Ang, new interview
with Lolly Low and then some archiveal stuff.

676
00:45:29.079 --> 00:45:32.480
This just Eureka killing some of these
Asian releases. I love it.

677
00:45:34.159 --> 00:45:37.840
Yeah, and they look they releases
all just look incredible considering we grew up

678
00:45:37.840 --> 00:45:40.480
watching these really crappy legend releases that
were just like you could barely even see

679
00:45:40.480 --> 00:45:44.000
what's happening at the time. Yeah, it's rankl's what they've been doing with

680
00:45:44.039 --> 00:45:47.119
these things. And then the second
one thennounced today is one that might be

681
00:45:47.159 --> 00:45:52.639
a little more exciting for me.
This is Hideo Goosha's Violent Streets from nineteen

682
00:45:52.639 --> 00:45:57.239
seventy four, and this one a
former Yakuza member, Igawa is now a

683
00:45:57.280 --> 00:46:00.840
brooding, world weary nightclub owner.
Some of his former associates are released from

684
00:46:00.840 --> 00:46:06.440
prison and want to regain a foothold
in the criminal underworld by igniting a gang

685
00:46:06.480 --> 00:46:09.840
war between the local yakuza and an
out of town clan led by veteran actor

686
00:46:10.119 --> 00:46:15.960
Tatsura Tanba. A bold and colorful
entry into the yakuza genre, Hedeo Gosha's

687
00:46:15.039 --> 00:46:21.519
Violent Streets makes it worldwide debut on
Blu Ray from a new restoration done by

688
00:46:21.679 --> 00:46:28.039
Toe themselves. This has optional English
subs and introduction to it by Hedeo Gosha

689
00:46:28.039 --> 00:46:34.360
by film critic Tony Rains Jasper Sharp
on Violent Streets Jasper is somebody that's contributed

690
00:46:34.400 --> 00:46:37.880
to a lot of UK releases,
especially some of the Arrow releases. And

691
00:46:37.880 --> 00:46:43.800
then there's a collector's booklet featuring a
new essay by Tom mess and Violent Streets.

692
00:46:43.840 --> 00:46:45.119
Have you seen this one before?
I have not, but I can't

693
00:46:45.119 --> 00:46:49.920
wait to see it. Looks great. Yeah, Hedeo Goosha does some great

694
00:46:49.960 --> 00:46:53.440
work. I can't wait to see
this one either. Cohen Media Group just

695
00:46:53.480 --> 00:46:58.599
continuing their onslaught of releases. All
of a sudden they're putting out all kinds

696
00:46:58.639 --> 00:47:01.719
of stuff. Lately January, they're
putting out Memories of my Father. This

697
00:47:01.880 --> 00:47:07.760
was Columbia's submission for the ninety third
Academy Awards. This is from twenty twenty.

698
00:47:07.639 --> 00:47:12.559
Have you seen this one? I
have, I've heard the Unfortunately this

699
00:47:12.599 --> 00:47:16.119
is not very good, but uh, I'll still trust it. Cohen does

700
00:47:16.360 --> 00:47:22.159
pretty great work. Usually we've got
let's see film is storing. Annette Insdorff

701
00:47:22.239 --> 00:47:28.599
interviews the director Fernando Treeba and star
Javier Camarra. There's some making up featurettes

702
00:47:28.679 --> 00:47:35.760
and some trailers. Yeah. Interested
in seeing it for sure. Full Moon.

703
00:47:37.360 --> 00:47:40.159
I am curious your thoughts on Full
Moon overall. But first, the

704
00:47:40.320 --> 00:47:45.119
legacy collection, Volume one is now
available to order from full Moon. This

705
00:47:45.239 --> 00:47:52.480
is going to highlight the first decade
of the full Moon universe and includes Last

706
00:47:52.599 --> 00:47:55.920
Fox Trot in Burbank, Mansion of
the Doomed Cinderella, End of the World

707
00:47:57.079 --> 00:48:02.320
Auditions, Fairy Tales, Laser Black
Crash, Tourist Trap, The Daytime Ended,

708
00:48:02.639 --> 00:48:07.559
and the Best of Sex and Violence. Three of those Last Fox Trot

709
00:48:07.559 --> 00:48:10.239
in Burdbank, Auditions and the Best
of Sex and Violence have never been on

710
00:48:10.280 --> 00:48:14.719
Blu ray. This is gonna be
the first time they haven't announced any standalone

711
00:48:14.760 --> 00:48:17.039
Blu rays, but it's Full Moon, so likely they'll get the exact same

712
00:48:17.159 --> 00:48:21.880
disc put into something else in a
few months. What do you think of

713
00:48:21.920 --> 00:48:29.639
Full Moon? Overall? Very hit
and miss to put only. Some of

714
00:48:29.719 --> 00:48:32.920
the transfers look great, some of
them have issues. I'm very curious about

715
00:48:32.960 --> 00:48:36.280
the three that are new to the
Blue yespecially Best of Sex and Violence.

716
00:48:36.320 --> 00:48:37.639
How that's going to be an HD. I'm really curious how they're gonna pull

717
00:48:37.639 --> 00:48:40.599
that off. But Auditions is actually
a pretty fun one that hasn't I don't

718
00:48:40.599 --> 00:48:44.440
think it's had a new stand since
the VHS days. That's a pretty fun,

719
00:48:44.480 --> 00:48:47.400
crazy sex comedy with the quickly and
like we're casting all these guys in

720
00:48:47.440 --> 00:48:51.079
it. One thing. I wish
they would stop though. If you haven't

721
00:48:51.079 --> 00:48:52.840
seen their Mansion of the Doomed,
it is a gorgeous, gorgeous disk.

722
00:48:52.880 --> 00:48:55.480
The problem is what they've started doing
is like right when the movie ends,

723
00:48:55.800 --> 00:48:59.239
they had this like logo suddenly slam
on screen. You it'll be like full

724
00:48:59.280 --> 00:49:01.960
Moon number two boom. It's like
you just killed the whole mood at the

725
00:49:02.000 --> 00:49:05.719
end of the movie. Guys,
like, what are you doing? Yeah,

726
00:49:05.760 --> 00:49:12.480
so if a thing please stop doing
that, I'd really be appreciate it.

727
00:49:13.199 --> 00:49:15.519
That and all the streaming services please
just let us see the credits and

728
00:49:15.599 --> 00:49:19.360
let us sit with the end of
the movie. Yeah, it's like respect

729
00:49:19.760 --> 00:49:22.559
a little bit. The movie's ending, like you kind of keep the mood

730
00:49:22.559 --> 00:49:25.159
for a second here. I don't
know what exactly is going on with this

731
00:49:25.239 --> 00:49:30.480
box set, but this is the
picture they're advertising. They've got this random

732
00:49:30.519 --> 00:49:36.320
little air pocket in the top of
this. It looks like that maybe a

733
00:49:36.360 --> 00:49:39.840
booklet or something in the top.
The picture is not super clear. Interesting,

734
00:49:40.400 --> 00:49:46.639
Uh, we'll see. I guess
it's full moon. And Charles Mann

735
00:49:46.679 --> 00:49:52.840
just kind of does what Charles bandl
wants. All right, we got a

736
00:49:52.960 --> 00:50:00.519
few more left. Let me pull
that up now, Bros. From twenty

737
00:50:00.559 --> 00:50:04.199
twenty two. Just this year is
getting a really loaded release, and this

738
00:50:04.280 --> 00:50:07.199
is kind of the reason why I
really wanted to highlight this. I missed

739
00:50:07.199 --> 00:50:09.159
this one in theater and I was
really sad. First of all, this

740
00:50:09.559 --> 00:50:13.360
got announced like in the last two
days, and this is coming out next

741
00:50:13.360 --> 00:50:16.480
Tuesday. I don't know what happened
there, but this is the Billy Eichner

742
00:50:16.519 --> 00:50:21.840
film that Judd Apatow I believe is
like the producer on. I don't think

743
00:50:21.880 --> 00:50:25.159
he directed it. But we've got
deleted scenes, We've got a gag reel,

744
00:50:25.360 --> 00:50:30.159
we've got a featurette on how representation
matters. There is a behind the

745
00:50:30.159 --> 00:50:35.719
scenes that is exclusive to this disc, a handful of other featurettes, but

746
00:50:36.039 --> 00:50:40.559
just overall, for a studio disc, this is pretty damn great. Did

747
00:50:40.559 --> 00:50:44.360
you get Sebros. This year?
I did not, because it kind of

748
00:50:44.400 --> 00:50:46.400
went and came and went so fast. Yeah. Yeah, it was really

749
00:50:46.440 --> 00:50:51.400
shocked off. Faster went to being
able to rent and stream as well.

750
00:50:51.480 --> 00:50:52.800
It was like all of a sudden, all the blue was like, oh

751
00:50:52.840 --> 00:50:54.199
here it is. I was like, okay, that was really quick.

752
00:50:54.280 --> 00:50:57.559
It was only in theaters for like
two weeks and they suddenly threw it out

753
00:50:57.599 --> 00:51:00.599
there. And yeah, so I
guess with the desk there fall suits.

754
00:51:00.840 --> 00:51:01.480
I guess starting to rush to make
their money back. I don't know,

755
00:51:01.519 --> 00:51:05.079
but yeah, that's been seeing roster
of extras. I guess they're ready to

756
00:51:05.079 --> 00:51:07.639
go on that one. Yeah,
they must have been really eager to put

757
00:51:07.639 --> 00:51:10.239
this out. But it's nice.
It's nice that it's getting a good release.

758
00:51:10.360 --> 00:51:15.400
Can't wait to see it. Another
film coming out from Warner Brothers,

759
00:51:15.519 --> 00:51:20.000
Legion of Superheroes is coming out on
February seventh. This is a brand new

760
00:51:20.119 --> 00:51:24.199
animated film coming to d C.
This one is coming in four K and

761
00:51:24.679 --> 00:51:29.559
some featurettes on here, not a
ton, but some. And yeah,

762
00:51:29.559 --> 00:51:32.119
if you're into DC animation, A
lot of their animated movies are better than

763
00:51:32.159 --> 00:51:37.079
the DCEU in most people's opinions.
But this is just another one to add

764
00:51:37.119 --> 00:51:39.880
to that roster. And they're very
pretty to look at if you have a

765
00:51:39.920 --> 00:51:45.679
four K setup. Oh yeah.
Then one that I'm very excited about,

766
00:51:46.119 --> 00:51:52.559
The Banshees of Any Sharon. This
is coming on December twentieth. This one,

767
00:51:52.679 --> 00:51:54.519
it seems like it's going to be
making a run at a few oscars

768
00:51:54.519 --> 00:52:00.719
hopefully. This is two lifelong friends
find themselves at an impasse when one abruptly

769
00:52:00.800 --> 00:52:05.559
ends the relationship, bringing alarming consequences
for both of them. And in this

770
00:52:05.639 --> 00:52:10.000
week got a making of featurette and
then the story of the Banshees of Inn

771
00:52:10.199 --> 00:52:15.280
Cheron from story inception and reunion of
its gifted actors who were also in in

772
00:52:15.480 --> 00:52:20.719
Bruges, and they go, you
know, through the Ireland locations that they

773
00:52:20.719 --> 00:52:22.960
do there, and then there's some
deleted scenes. Did you get see this

774
00:52:23.000 --> 00:52:25.559
one this year? I actually hope
I'm going to see it this weekend.

775
00:52:25.559 --> 00:52:30.400
I've had a chance yet, but
yeah, hopefully. Yeah, I'll go

776
00:52:30.480 --> 00:52:31.400
see on Saturday. But I'm dying
to see this. Yeah. I love

777
00:52:31.480 --> 00:52:35.079
hardly done this stuff, So yeah, really looking forward to this one.

778
00:52:35.480 --> 00:52:37.719
I don't think I've heard anybody say
a single bad thing about this movie,

779
00:52:37.800 --> 00:52:42.559
and with how much I loved in
Bruges, this is a must as soon

780
00:52:42.599 --> 00:52:47.960
as I can. Yeah, last
one for the night, Mississippi Mermaid.

781
00:52:49.000 --> 00:52:52.159
We just talked about this. This
is coming on February fourteenth. This is

782
00:52:52.159 --> 00:52:55.880
another one of the Francois trufaux films. And we do have some reverse art

783
00:52:55.920 --> 00:53:00.199
as well. This one we got
an audio commentary again by Julie Kruego and

784
00:53:00.320 --> 00:53:05.840
Nick Redman, of course, and
uh yeah, any feelings on this one

785
00:53:05.840 --> 00:53:07.840
you'd like to share. This is
a really cool movie. You would not

786
00:53:07.840 --> 00:53:10.840
guess from the artwork, but it
is actually basically a film Nora in Color.

787
00:53:10.880 --> 00:53:13.920
It's a murder mystery and kind of
a cool one. It's based on

788
00:53:13.920 --> 00:53:15.320
a book by Ceronel Wilrich, the
guy who gave us you know, like

789
00:53:15.360 --> 00:53:19.719
aet the Brightwar Black and get Rear
Window and all that stuff. It was

790
00:53:19.719 --> 00:53:22.840
called Walton in Darkness, but they
later remade this as Original Sin with Angelina

791
00:53:22.840 --> 00:53:24.280
and Jolise. Have you've seen that
and you're like, the story seems very

792
00:53:24.280 --> 00:53:28.119
familiar, that's why. But yeah, this is a pretty cool movie.

793
00:53:29.440 --> 00:53:31.159
And again thank you ever putting notable
subtitles. Finally, because the old Blu

794
00:53:31.280 --> 00:53:35.760
ray was a piece of poop.
So yeah, a lot of those old

795
00:53:35.800 --> 00:53:38.199
Twilight Time discs just unfortunately that well, first of all, they came and

796
00:53:38.239 --> 00:53:43.599
went very quickly because they did such
a short run and Twilight Time and their

797
00:53:43.760 --> 00:53:46.480
Hayday like we're very popular. They
sold out very quick on some of those

798
00:53:46.519 --> 00:53:51.239
discs, so I'm glad that they're
seemingly getting the second run. I also

799
00:53:51.239 --> 00:53:53.159
feel bad for a lot of the
people that paid top dollar to make sure

800
00:53:53.159 --> 00:53:58.360
that they got all its Wilight Time
releases. H Let's see, we always

801
00:53:58.400 --> 00:54:02.800
cover what is coming out next week
in case you forgot, We're getting the

802
00:54:02.920 --> 00:54:08.119
Criterion four K release of Wally Planes, Trains and Automobiles four K release,

803
00:54:08.199 --> 00:54:14.199
which seems to be getting a mixed
signal on the quality. There have you

804
00:54:14.239 --> 00:54:16.440
gotten that one in yet? I
have not, but again, Paramounts four

805
00:54:16.480 --> 00:54:22.360
K Street lately has been really iffy, so we'll see. Yeah, not

806
00:54:22.800 --> 00:54:25.960
a lot of confidence at this point. Unfortunately, Malcolm X and four K

807
00:54:27.079 --> 00:54:30.079
coming from Criterion next week as well, and I cannot wait to see that

808
00:54:30.159 --> 00:54:32.599
disc. It's been a long time
since I've seen that film. Gonna,

809
00:54:32.760 --> 00:54:37.519
I think in December, gonna make
my wife watch that one. High Planes,

810
00:54:37.559 --> 00:54:42.440
Drifter and four K coming from Keno
mystery Men four K which again can't

811
00:54:42.440 --> 00:54:46.480
wait to get that one. In
Great Great movie Scream Factory, the Company

812
00:54:46.480 --> 00:54:53.239
of Wolves four K is shipping Rollerball
In four K is shipping as well Shrek

813
00:54:53.320 --> 00:54:57.639
two for everybody that watches this and
is clamoring for Shrek two and four K

814
00:54:57.719 --> 00:55:01.320
that comes out next week. Night
Gallow season three from Keno. This release

815
00:55:01.599 --> 00:55:06.920
is maybe my most exciting release of
the week. I love the first two

816
00:55:06.960 --> 00:55:12.480
seasons and what they've done for those
releases. Keno Night Gallery has had like

817
00:55:12.519 --> 00:55:15.920
this brand new life breathed into it
with these three releases because they are so

818
00:55:16.400 --> 00:55:21.880
they're clean, They've got commentaries on
I believe every single episode at least,

819
00:55:22.280 --> 00:55:28.239
and some other featuretts that have been
thrown in. Just incredible releases. Uh,

820
00:55:28.320 --> 00:55:30.679
Sony Pictures Classics four K box set, this one looks really cool too.

821
00:55:30.760 --> 00:55:34.960
Ten I believe ten films, ten
or eleven all on four K.

822
00:55:35.440 --> 00:55:39.480
Nice box All really great films Sony
Pictures Classics. Any of those that you

823
00:55:39.599 --> 00:55:43.719
are real big fan of, maybe
not even in the box set, just

824
00:55:43.840 --> 00:55:45.719
any from that line, well pretty
much. I think that line they had

825
00:55:45.719 --> 00:55:47.800
a really good run. But yeah, the choice in this box great.

826
00:55:47.840 --> 00:55:52.519
I am especially jazz about geting City
Bus Children roun Alla Run coming by your

827
00:55:52.599 --> 00:55:54.239
name, Bulvat. I mean,
that's that's a hell of that Orlando,

828
00:55:54.320 --> 00:55:59.639
and that's there's some major eye candy
in this set that's really exciting. Orlando

829
00:55:59.719 --> 00:56:04.199
is maybe my favorite movie in that
entire box that it is just remarkable.

830
00:56:04.239 --> 00:56:07.239
I can't wait to see that thing
in four K. That's a gorgeous film.

831
00:56:07.280 --> 00:56:12.320
I can't avoid to see All Looks. Peacemaker, the Warner Brothers show

832
00:56:12.320 --> 00:56:15.280
that was on HBO Max. We
got a Blu ray release of that finally

833
00:56:15.280 --> 00:56:17.559
after people complained because Canada was going
to get it and we weren't. That's

834
00:56:17.599 --> 00:56:22.079
coming out next week. Pussing Boots
in four K. The standalone ip Man

835
00:56:22.119 --> 00:56:27.480
films are coming out in four K
next week. Ski Patrol from mbd rewind

836
00:56:27.920 --> 00:56:32.280
Penny Wise the story of It's I
believe that's coming from Scream Box and Bloody

837
00:56:32.280 --> 00:56:37.599
Disgusting and I think children Shouldn't Play
with Dead Things from VCI on four K

838
00:56:37.679 --> 00:56:43.760
is getting delayed again if I remember, I think it's December now. Yeah.

839
00:56:43.800 --> 00:56:47.280
The Blood Beasts Terror with Peter Cushing
from Keno is next week as well.

840
00:56:47.719 --> 00:56:52.519
Then we got Hair Extensions, which
I believe Diabolic and Orbit have already

841
00:56:52.559 --> 00:56:54.599
got this in and are shipping it
now. That's from Media Blasters. I

842
00:56:54.639 --> 00:57:00.360
believe a kind of loving This is
one I've been curious about for a while

843
00:57:00.360 --> 00:57:02.000
and not to put you on the
spot. Have you seen a kind of

844
00:57:02.000 --> 00:57:05.360
loving I had? Yeah, I
have the British Blue rig which on s

845
00:57:05.360 --> 00:57:07.360
gorgeous, so I assume this is
the same scan. But yeah, this

846
00:57:07.440 --> 00:57:08.280
is one of those. Really,
this is one of the Stars black and

847
00:57:08.280 --> 00:57:12.239
White, you know, British kitchen
sing dramas. Yeah. Yeah, it's

848
00:57:12.280 --> 00:57:14.679
like one of Allen Bates's first big
early starring films. But yeah, this

849
00:57:14.719 --> 00:57:15.840
is a really good one. And
the transform this is a knockout. If

850
00:57:15.840 --> 00:57:21.480
it's the same master, which I
guess it is, I'm assuming so usually

851
00:57:21.480 --> 00:57:24.000
they would be. And that's I
think that's the bulk of it. Uh,

852
00:57:24.119 --> 00:57:28.239
I forgot about that. Panthers next
week as well. A couple of

853
00:57:28.320 --> 00:57:32.159
RaRo titles, The Scent of the
Night and one hundred Steps. Uh,

854
00:57:32.320 --> 00:57:39.679
that's Madame Cloud or Cloud from Cult
Epics is next week. And that's it

855
00:57:39.800 --> 00:57:44.519
for the most part. You know, you've been around a while. Do

856
00:57:44.559 --> 00:57:46.239
you know the proper way to say
the name of this label? Is it

857
00:57:46.360 --> 00:57:51.599
RaRo or RaRo? Do you know? I've always heard Rairo but it could

858
00:57:51.599 --> 00:57:53.679
be wrong, but for years that's
all I've heard is Rairo. Somebody come

859
00:57:53.679 --> 00:58:01.599
out and tell us I don't know, Uh, you recently released a book.

860
00:58:01.800 --> 00:58:05.760
Can you tell everybody about that book
that you released? Again? I

861
00:58:05.840 --> 00:58:10.719
did, and you can finally get
it from Amazon too. They're supposed to

862
00:58:10.760 --> 00:58:13.960
have been stuck by Halloween, but
they missed it by a little bit because

863
00:58:14.079 --> 00:58:15.000
a lot of friends order it that
way. They're like, my blood.

864
00:58:15.039 --> 00:58:19.360
I was like, I don't know. But you can order directly from Fat

865
00:58:19.400 --> 00:58:22.400
Press as well. But it's called
the Friedfest guid to Vampire Movies. It

866
00:58:22.480 --> 00:58:27.360
is the annual series they put out
that coincides with aer videos fright Fest they

867
00:58:27.440 --> 00:58:30.480
do in London. So I had
a great little kind of book tour thing

868
00:58:30.920 --> 00:58:32.599
in the UK where it got to
meet a lot of fans and hang out

869
00:58:32.639 --> 00:58:35.840
with a lot of folks over there. But yeah, it's a survey of

870
00:58:35.880 --> 00:58:39.320
vampire films, including two hundred in
depth books at some of the most fascinating,

871
00:58:39.320 --> 00:58:43.880
important and or just fought out weird
vampire movies. But yeah, it

872
00:58:43.920 --> 00:58:45.239
was a lot of fun to work
on, and I'm glad that the Puppy's

873
00:58:45.280 --> 00:58:50.000
finally out there. So it's my
fifth book and I'm really really proud of

874
00:58:50.000 --> 00:58:54.280
it. Nice and the cover looks
great. I've got my wish list I'm

875
00:58:54.360 --> 00:58:57.760
kind of hinting at my wife,
but that's the book I wanted to buy

876
00:58:57.800 --> 00:59:00.440
this year. Curious, we've had
a bunch of stuf announced for you recently.

877
00:59:00.480 --> 00:59:04.159
Is there any of those that we
didn't talk about this week that have

878
00:59:04.239 --> 00:59:07.719
been officially announced that you want to
highlight for everybody and really just make sure

879
00:59:07.760 --> 00:59:13.000
people get their attention on because,
as you know, the physical media dying,

880
00:59:13.039 --> 00:59:15.000
there's very few releases right now,
So yeah, like what you can

881
00:59:15.000 --> 00:59:21.039
bring your money on. People are
overwhelmed. Which ones do you think are

882
00:59:21.079 --> 00:59:23.719
ones that might be going under the
radar a little bit? Well, actually,

883
00:59:23.719 --> 00:59:27.119
one of the ones you mentioned coming
out next week is the four KF

884
00:59:27.159 --> 00:59:29.679
high Plane Strifter. I just did
a new commentary with Steve Mentell on that

885
00:59:29.679 --> 00:59:30.400
one, and I think it's really, really well. I'm really proud of

886
00:59:30.440 --> 00:59:34.440
that track. I love that movie. It's nice. It's kind of like

887
00:59:34.480 --> 00:59:37.360
it's a Clint Eastwood horror western in
a way. It's very spooky. But

888
00:59:37.360 --> 00:59:39.519
I've always loved that one since I
was a kid. It's always kind of

889
00:59:39.519 --> 00:59:42.239
stuck with me. So I was
a real privilege to be able to do

890
00:59:42.360 --> 00:59:50.280
that one. God, there's so
much stuff coming out every week. I

891
00:59:50.400 --> 00:59:54.000
just did the new one with Steve
last night, actually, which I think

892
00:59:54.119 --> 00:59:57.239
I can I don't know if I
can say, but it's one that Keno

893
00:59:57.320 --> 01:00:01.440
has for a parent title that they
picked up nice with Steve McQueen, so

894
01:00:01.519 --> 01:00:07.599
you probably give it away what it
is. Yeah, other than that,

895
01:00:07.599 --> 01:00:08.400
you have been doing a lot of
tiny, hard stuff with Troy, But

896
01:00:08.440 --> 01:00:12.199
yeah, I think High Planes Drifter
if you don't picked that up. I

897
01:00:12.199 --> 01:00:15.320
also really I'm proud of the track
we did for c f Maacatraz for the

898
01:00:15.320 --> 01:00:16.719
four K, although I guess some
people are iffy on the scan because it's

899
01:00:16.719 --> 01:00:21.119
paramount. I have not seen it
yet myself, but the commentary I think

900
01:00:21.159 --> 01:00:27.840
is good, so you can't speak
to this quality the U the Argento title

901
01:00:27.880 --> 01:00:29.960
that they announced, are you I
think you were on that one, aren't

902
01:00:30.000 --> 01:00:34.159
you? The Five Days? Oh? The five Days? Yeah? Oh

903
01:00:34.199 --> 01:00:36.679
yeah, the one the annouced.
Yeah, I'm on five Days with Troy.

904
01:00:37.599 --> 01:00:38.559
Yeah, that was that was when
I never thought would get a blue

905
01:00:38.599 --> 01:00:42.039
release. They are actually get in
four K, which just blows my mind

906
01:00:42.239 --> 01:00:45.960
that's coming out. But yeah,
and there's a lot more in that vein

907
01:00:45.079 --> 01:00:51.519
to come very soon. I think
we are getting really close to a full

908
01:00:51.599 --> 01:00:54.880
Argento library on h D. Right, I think we're only missing a couple,

909
01:00:55.639 --> 01:01:00.440
well, I think except the only
one that's well, yeah, there's

910
01:01:00.480 --> 01:01:02.880
one that's uh, Inferno is the
one everybody really wants in four K,

911
01:01:04.000 --> 01:01:07.400
but unfortunately that's stuck with Disney now
through Fox. But maybe they'll be able

912
01:01:07.440 --> 01:01:12.239
to unleash that one somehow. But
yeah, that's that's the big eb that

913
01:01:12.239 --> 01:01:15.719
everybody's like clamoring for. That may
not be happening, but yeah, I

914
01:01:15.760 --> 01:01:19.960
mean there's some of his TV work
that still has yet to kid HD,

915
01:01:20.119 --> 01:01:22.400
but yeah, it's it's getting really
close. I can't believe how fast they've

916
01:01:22.400 --> 01:01:25.079
been turning through its homography. So
I'm just finished up and the Baba's and

917
01:01:25.159 --> 01:01:29.800
will be in good shape. Yeah, I mean that that could be a

918
01:01:29.840 --> 01:01:31.719
question. I'm sure you can't say
anything. Do you know anything about more

919
01:01:31.840 --> 01:01:35.920
Bava re releases soon? Because I
know a lot of Baba stuff is going

920
01:01:35.960 --> 01:01:37.480
out of print. Yeah, well, yeah, I know, because I

921
01:01:37.519 --> 01:01:39.519
think all fairly on, he has
a lot of his deals will run out,

922
01:01:39.599 --> 01:01:42.920
so I don't know where they're going
to wind up. You know,

923
01:01:43.000 --> 01:01:46.360
we had that one really great looking
French four K black Sabbath, which was

924
01:01:46.400 --> 01:01:50.159
not English friendly. But other than
that, it's like, I don't know,

925
01:01:50.199 --> 01:01:52.760
but I think his stuff would just
look gorgeous in four K. So

926
01:01:52.119 --> 01:01:57.000
yeah, somebody needs to jump on
that. Friend of the Channel, Ice

927
01:01:57.039 --> 01:02:00.559
wants to know. Is there anything
that Nathaniel collects or hobbies for besides films.

928
01:02:01.880 --> 01:02:07.679
That's a good question. I collect
a lot of vinyl n CDs,

929
01:02:09.000 --> 01:02:12.800
soundtracks, classic pop, that kind
of thing. I love to travel,

930
01:02:14.239 --> 01:02:15.400
and I collect a lot of books. I collect a lot of pulp novels,

931
01:02:15.440 --> 01:02:17.719
that kind of thing, movie tie
in books. I have way more

932
01:02:17.760 --> 01:02:23.960
books than I probably should. Other
than that, yeah, that's I think

933
01:02:23.960 --> 01:02:28.920
that's the big thing. Any plans
to travel soon that that are exciting you,

934
01:02:30.079 --> 01:02:34.119
Well, I'm gonna be going to
France next summer. That's already locked

935
01:02:34.119 --> 01:02:37.559
in. Nice event. I want
to go too, But I don't know.

936
01:02:37.639 --> 01:02:40.639
See, I probably do London and
France next year. But yeah,

937
01:02:40.679 --> 01:02:43.559
I tried. I try to like
get a europe trip in like once a

938
01:02:43.639 --> 01:02:45.639
year if I can make it work. But COVID kind of like liked out

939
01:02:45.639 --> 01:02:49.880
of life for a couple of years. But now we're back in business unfortunately.

940
01:02:49.960 --> 01:02:53.960
Yeah, Bruiser says just got High
Planes Drifter in your contributions amongst others,

941
01:02:54.039 --> 01:02:58.159
might push that into one of my
favorites of the year. Also got

942
01:02:58.159 --> 01:03:04.000
the Escape from Alcatraz. Let's see
question. Do you have the four K

943
01:03:04.079 --> 01:03:07.079
of Close Encounters of the Third Kind? And how is the transfer on that

944
01:03:07.880 --> 01:03:12.199
gorgeous? Yeah? Yeah, it's
a really good disc and obviously that is

945
01:03:12.239 --> 01:03:15.880
one of the better holding up movies
from that time period. I think it

946
01:03:15.039 --> 01:03:20.119
really still works on pretty much every
level. Yeah, I mean terrible with

947
01:03:20.119 --> 01:03:21.880
thon. If it's a Sony four
K, you can pretty much pay with

948
01:03:21.880 --> 01:03:23.039
confidence. I don't think they really
screwed ending up yet that I could think

949
01:03:23.039 --> 01:03:28.239
of, nothing at all that I
know of. Does Nathaniel have any plans

950
01:03:28.280 --> 01:03:31.599
for more print editions of review books
like DVD Delirium or is it online only?

951
01:03:31.679 --> 01:03:36.679
Now? I would love to do
a DV Delirium five. I had

952
01:03:36.679 --> 01:03:39.280
to wait to finish the Vampire book. Whether we we couldn't call it DVD

953
01:03:39.280 --> 01:03:43.119
delerium now, I'd have to call
something else. But I don't know.

954
01:03:43.199 --> 01:03:45.199
I would love to do it.
We shall see. I don't know,

955
01:03:45.280 --> 01:03:49.519
but there was talk about doing an
ebook of the first one, and I

956
01:03:49.599 --> 01:03:52.159
don't know what's happened with that?
Because we were prepping it. So I

957
01:03:52.159 --> 01:03:55.519
should actually poke bat presence that where
that stands, because I think that'd be

958
01:03:55.559 --> 01:04:00.599
really cool of the interactive e book
of it. But heck, yeah,

959
01:04:00.639 --> 01:04:08.079
do you have any recent favorite soundtracks
on vinyl? Recent soundtracks? Let me

960
01:04:08.480 --> 01:04:14.719
think let's come out lately, not
super late. I mean anything Waxwork puts

961
01:04:14.760 --> 01:04:16.239
out, you know, and like
any of the Mondo stuff that comes out,

962
01:04:16.360 --> 01:04:18.840
it is really solid. But I
mean I tend to I really love

963
01:04:18.920 --> 01:04:21.159
going for like the rare stuff that
doesn't have any other phone and releases,

964
01:04:21.199 --> 01:04:24.880
things like you know, Creep Show
two and The Wild Beasts all that kind

965
01:04:24.880 --> 01:04:26.559
of stuff. Those the ones that
get a lot of play, go on

966
01:04:26.559 --> 01:04:29.199
my term table a lot, you
know, because it's just something kind of

967
01:04:29.199 --> 01:04:30.800
special about you can only hear it
on wax you know. That's really cool.

968
01:04:31.480 --> 01:04:33.239
So yeah, that those are ones
that are closest to my heart.

969
01:04:34.960 --> 01:04:39.760
Yeah, there's been this big resurgence
in vinyl over the last few years,

970
01:04:39.760 --> 01:04:43.880
and it's so so odd now that
they are. I believe that last I

971
01:04:43.960 --> 01:04:46.760
checked, still backed up like fifteen
months before you can get a new vinyl

972
01:04:46.760 --> 01:04:51.840
release scheduled and based on that.
It's it's more popular than CDs are right

973
01:04:51.880 --> 01:04:57.440
now. It's more popular than buying
any of these other soundtracks in any other

974
01:04:57.480 --> 01:05:02.119
format. And they're just again just
taking it by storm and physical media coming

975
01:05:02.199 --> 01:05:06.440
back from from the ashes for something
like vinyl. And I love CDs too,

976
01:05:06.480 --> 01:05:09.880
though, I mean I still buy
CDs like sound tracks like crazy because

977
01:05:09.880 --> 01:05:12.280
they're still SIF coming up like all
the time. You know that it doesn't

978
01:05:12.320 --> 01:05:14.760
get to it does get as much
love as vinyl for some reason. But

979
01:05:14.840 --> 01:05:16.880
yeah, I really don't build overlook
CDs because yeah, there's some really fantastic

980
01:05:16.880 --> 01:05:24.360
stuff coming out there is uh.
I think they're Holland Wolf Records does a

981
01:05:24.400 --> 01:05:29.719
lot of random under the rock,
under the radar soundtracks. They've done a

982
01:05:29.719 --> 01:05:31.880
lot of like Jamie Blank stuff,
They've done some of the old Horse stuff

983
01:05:31.880 --> 01:05:35.320
from the eighties and they put again
a lot of love into these releases that

984
01:05:35.360 --> 01:05:41.639
nobody else is. They're all available
on CD right there for you. Yeah,

985
01:05:41.679 --> 01:05:45.079
does Nathaniel partake in the premiums addiction? Do you have any like physical

986
01:05:45.079 --> 01:05:48.000
media collection. Do you have anything
that's like steel books or some of the

987
01:05:48.039 --> 01:05:55.440
bigger releases from like China or the
Korean releases. I don't go that far.

988
01:05:55.480 --> 01:05:58.440
I will get like premium packaging if
if I've roomed for him. And

989
01:05:58.480 --> 01:06:00.559
the problem is that, like a
lot of us, I have limited space,

990
01:06:00.599 --> 01:06:02.599
so it has to me something super
special steel books, some kind of

991
01:06:02.599 --> 01:06:04.920
like case by case. The same
thing with like with slipcovers. I mean

992
01:06:04.960 --> 01:06:08.159
I like having them, but it's
not something I got I gotta have unless

993
01:06:08.159 --> 01:06:10.960
it's like really like the vinegar syndrome. It's like there are just a few

994
01:06:10.960 --> 01:06:12.960
where it's like, you know,
I'll double there for that, like the

995
01:06:13.000 --> 01:06:15.199
Witch Trips. Look currently did I
was like, my god, that thing

996
01:06:15.280 --> 01:06:17.599
is just beautiful. It's like just
for that thing, you know, stuff

997
01:06:17.599 --> 01:06:19.920
like the Screen Factory the fog steel
book that they put out, I mean,

998
01:06:19.960 --> 01:06:21.599
that was just too gorgeous. You
know, it's like, of course

999
01:06:21.639 --> 01:06:25.800
I'm gonna get that. But you
know, as far as like the super

1000
01:06:25.800 --> 01:06:28.400
big box stuff, it's a little
tricky. I mean, stuff like some

1001
01:06:28.440 --> 01:06:30.320
of the ones that Error is putting
out. It's like do I need that

1002
01:06:30.400 --> 01:06:33.480
Robin at Prince At to use import? It's pretty big. You know,

1003
01:06:35.599 --> 01:06:38.719
I know I'm gonna get it,
but it's just like you gotta figure out

1004
01:06:38.719 --> 01:06:40.760
where on your shelf. Are you're
going to stick that print and you know

1005
01:06:40.840 --> 01:06:43.480
you don't run into it the middle
of the night. But yeah, so

1006
01:06:44.199 --> 01:06:45.039
I don't know, maybe you built
on the wing out of the house or

1007
01:06:45.039 --> 01:06:47.400
something, but yeah, I do
as much as I can. Let's just

1008
01:06:47.440 --> 01:06:50.559
say, uh, Stan, Geezy, you wants to know, putting you

1009
01:06:50.599 --> 01:06:57.519
on the spot, what is your
favorite vampire film? If you ask me

1010
01:06:57.519 --> 01:07:01.719
by decade, that's an easier question. I'm probably just gonna go with Near

1011
01:07:01.800 --> 01:07:04.920
Dark, though. I just that
movie just holds up so well for me.

1012
01:07:04.960 --> 01:07:08.400
I just love it the pieces,
But I mean, I also it

1013
01:07:08.400 --> 01:07:10.360
depends on my mood. I love
let the Right One in, I love

1014
01:07:10.440 --> 01:07:13.840
Kiss of the Vampire, for going
Classic Hammer. You know, there's so

1015
01:07:13.920 --> 01:07:16.760
many, but my knee jerk answer
is probably Near Dark because I just it's

1016
01:07:16.800 --> 01:07:19.880
one that I can just watch over
and over again and it just really just

1017
01:07:19.880 --> 01:07:24.119
pushes all the buttons for me.
I love it so much. I hope

1018
01:07:24.119 --> 01:07:27.239
we're still getting that four K release
that was supposed to be coming from Studio

1019
01:07:27.280 --> 01:07:32.239
Canal. I really hope so we
need it badly. Any recent physical media

1020
01:07:32.239 --> 01:07:38.840
that you are genuinely surprised we can
actually buy in that it exists. What

1021
01:07:38.920 --> 01:07:45.320
am I not surprised? Well,
I mean the Devil's Game Severn just announced

1022
01:07:45.360 --> 01:07:46.719
that one kind of just staggers me. In the five days both of those,

1023
01:07:46.800 --> 01:07:49.880
the fact that those were going to
be on discs, that just blows

1024
01:07:49.920 --> 01:07:53.159
my mind, especially in the United
States. I mean, if you told

1025
01:07:53.159 --> 01:07:56.480
me that like fifteen years ago,
I've been like, way, that's never

1026
01:07:56.480 --> 01:08:00.840
gonna happen. Yeah, I mean
I love some of these box sets,

1027
01:08:00.880 --> 01:08:04.039
Like I can't live a Ray Dentisteckler
box set. It'd big that. Uh

1028
01:08:04.800 --> 01:08:09.079
yeah, I mean it's it's a
miracle. I don't know what what we

1029
01:08:09.119 --> 01:08:11.920
did, but we're definitely living in
the best timeline as far as physical media

1030
01:08:11.960 --> 01:08:15.000
goes. It's just it just blows
my mind. Like every single year,

1031
01:08:15.440 --> 01:08:16.880
you know, I try to do
my top thirty favorite lists and it's really

1032
01:08:16.880 --> 01:08:19.840
tough, you know, just paring
it down because I'm just like I can't

1033
01:08:19.840 --> 01:08:21.880
play of this or this or this
or this. But like we were talking

1034
01:08:21.880 --> 01:08:26.880
before the show that I just finished
reviewing the uh the Bruha Matta three Italian

1035
01:08:26.920 --> 01:08:30.079
action films. Ever did cop Game
and Double Target and Worn to Fight,

1036
01:08:30.159 --> 01:08:32.319
which I mean you couldn't you had
to like get like Japanese vss of those

1037
01:08:32.319 --> 01:08:34.600
things back in the day, and
now they're just you know, these gorgeous

1038
01:08:34.600 --> 01:08:38.680
remastered Blu rays. I'm like,
how how does that even happen? You

1039
01:08:38.720 --> 01:08:44.079
know? Right? Uh, let's
see Damien and a sartists here, Bill

1040
01:08:44.119 --> 01:08:47.439
say they have a full run of
Video Watchdog, and Damien is asking,

1041
01:08:47.479 --> 01:08:51.920
how did you come to be involved
with Video Watchdog? Well? I was

1042
01:08:51.960 --> 01:08:55.640
a reader since issue one, even
before them, and Tim Lucas was writing

1043
01:08:56.000 --> 01:08:57.800
you know, his column before that. But yeah, when he started the

1044
01:08:57.840 --> 01:09:00.640
Video watch Dog, I was ecstatic. I loved it, and then I

1045
01:09:00.680 --> 01:09:03.680
approached him because when I first moved
to La I was fresh out of school

1046
01:09:03.720 --> 01:09:09.560
and I got a job at DreamWorks
and I was I was handling the screenplays

1047
01:09:09.560 --> 01:09:12.560
that were coming through because this was
back when Dreamings was starting out and they

1048
01:09:12.560 --> 01:09:15.479
were making The Haunting, which at
first I was excited about because I was

1049
01:09:15.520 --> 01:09:16.159
like, oh, it's you know, based on honeytal House, one of

1050
01:09:16.159 --> 01:09:18.960
my favorite books. And then I
but I was there the whole process,

1051
01:09:19.000 --> 01:09:24.640
watching every rewrite command and I was
like doing, like, what every rewrite

1052
01:09:24.680 --> 01:09:28.560
is worse? What is happening?
So I kind of got to watch that

1053
01:09:28.560 --> 01:09:30.039
car wreck and pull some motions.
So I actually wrote up an article about

1054
01:09:30.039 --> 01:09:31.880
it for Tim, and I was
like, do you want this? You

1055
01:09:31.920 --> 01:09:34.840
know, like sort of compare the
old the old Robert Wise film of it

1056
01:09:34.880 --> 01:09:38.039
and the new one in the book, you know, with a little bit

1057
01:09:38.079 --> 01:09:39.920
about some of the stuff they filmed
they got cut out and sort of the

1058
01:09:39.960 --> 01:09:43.319
torturous thing. And Tim was like
sure. So that was the first thing

1059
01:09:43.319 --> 01:09:45.039
I republished. And then he was
like, hey, you want to write

1060
01:09:45.039 --> 01:09:46.800
some some reviews and I was like, yeah, I love to, so

1061
01:09:46.840 --> 01:09:49.680
yeah, so whenever I could,
I just would submit reviews for video Watchlog

1062
01:09:49.720 --> 01:09:51.720
along with guys like you know,
Ja Harland Smith. I mean, you

1063
01:09:51.720 --> 01:09:55.560
know, all the giants, you
know. So yeah, that was a

1064
01:09:55.600 --> 01:10:00.000
real honor. Although I think,
actually I think the first thing are published

1065
01:10:00.039 --> 01:10:01.479
that Writtle letter, a letter to
Video Watchlog, because I noticed on the

1066
01:10:01.520 --> 01:10:05.880
Laser Risk of Tommy that one of
the an entire reel on the lasersks had

1067
01:10:05.920 --> 01:10:09.680
been flipped like the wrong way and
nobody noticed it, and I was like,

1068
01:10:09.720 --> 01:10:14.960
how no one's caught this? So
yeah, that was my first time

1069
01:10:14.960 --> 01:10:15.800
I was ever in print. But
the first article was the one I do

1070
01:10:15.880 --> 01:10:18.399
on the Haunting, which I still
I'm soltly proud of that one because that

1071
01:10:18.479 --> 01:10:21.159
was so that was an angle nobody
else had in that movie. So if

1072
01:10:21.159 --> 01:10:24.199
you ever saw the on the Bod
film, you kind of know how that

1073
01:10:24.199 --> 01:10:27.840
one turned out, But the story
behind it is is fascinating of course.

1074
01:10:28.359 --> 01:10:30.880
Uh, last one for a minute, What would Nathaniel say would be some

1075
01:10:30.960 --> 01:10:35.720
excellent habits to maintain to get better
writing about film, both critically and historically,

1076
01:10:35.880 --> 01:10:41.159
and uh, just for for the
the audience that doesn't know, I

1077
01:10:41.199 --> 01:10:45.760
would look up spaghetti on letterbox.
He does some really great film analysis already.

1078
01:10:45.159 --> 01:10:48.199
And other than writing every day,
which is the thing that pretty much

1079
01:10:48.199 --> 01:10:50.840
everybody will say is if you want
to get better writing, just keep writing.

1080
01:10:51.640 --> 01:10:56.159
What what are some other things that
you would say to actually maintain those

1081
01:10:56.199 --> 01:11:00.439
habits, I would say, just
used to train your So if not,

1082
01:11:00.479 --> 01:11:01.960
just be a passive viewer. Don't
just sort of like sit back and watch

1083
01:11:02.000 --> 01:11:04.119
it and not think about what you're
watching. And it's it's not hard to

1084
01:11:04.119 --> 01:11:06.960
do. It's not really work.
You just sort of like just think about,

1085
01:11:06.960 --> 01:11:09.840
like, you know, why does
this scene work? Like why is

1086
01:11:09.880 --> 01:11:12.359
this scene affecting me like this?
You know, just always kind of question

1087
01:11:12.439 --> 01:11:15.359
what you're looking at, because then
it really leads you to sort of,

1088
01:11:15.479 --> 01:11:16.800
you know, like, oh,
well, well maybe I should read some

1089
01:11:16.840 --> 01:11:19.119
more about this scene or why.
You know, you start to notice things

1090
01:11:19.359 --> 01:11:23.000
like camera angles and like the way
car people are placed in front of the

1091
01:11:23.000 --> 01:11:24.840
camera, and like what it says
to you, you know, about the

1092
01:11:24.920 --> 01:11:27.000
left side versus the right side.
Just things like that, in the way

1093
01:11:27.000 --> 01:11:29.840
that color is used. Just kind
of pay attention because I mean, you

1094
01:11:29.880 --> 01:11:30.680
just sort of get in that habit
after a while. You don't even really

1095
01:11:30.800 --> 01:11:34.279
it's you know, it's subconscious after
a while. But yeah, don't just

1096
01:11:34.319 --> 01:11:36.159
don't just sort of sit back and
just say, watch a movie just to

1097
01:11:36.199 --> 01:11:39.960
be entertained. I mean, obviously
you want to be entertained. Don't be

1098
01:11:39.960 --> 01:11:43.000
bored, uh, because the main
purpose of the film is to keep you

1099
01:11:43.039 --> 01:11:45.840
engage. But yeah, just always
always sort of have in the back of

1100
01:11:45.920 --> 01:11:47.199
your head like why is this Why
is this doing this for me? You

1101
01:11:47.239 --> 01:11:49.520
know? Or why am I attracted
to this genre? What is it about

1102
01:11:49.560 --> 01:11:54.239
it that I'm getting out of it? And that's why nowadays some of these

1103
01:11:54.359 --> 01:11:57.880
extra features on on these discs or
so, some of the better things to

1104
01:11:57.960 --> 01:12:01.640
actually ingest about the film because you've
got film historians, you've got people that

1105
01:12:01.640 --> 01:12:05.680
were involved in the making of the
film. They can explain certain things that

1106
01:12:05.760 --> 01:12:09.000
you know, maybe you wouldn't get
the context of unless you would heard it

1107
01:12:09.039 --> 01:12:12.000
from there properly, and that there
are people that have been studying these for

1108
01:12:12.079 --> 01:12:15.880
decades and they can give you that
sort of insight. And it's again literally

1109
01:12:15.920 --> 01:12:18.680
like film school on a disc in
some of these cases. Yeah, that's

1110
01:12:18.680 --> 01:12:21.199
why I think it's important to have
some people sort of poo poo film a

1111
01:12:21.199 --> 01:12:24.159
story and commentary is like, well, it's not the actor or the director,

1112
01:12:24.159 --> 01:12:26.039
I don't want to hear it.
It's like, yeah, but most

1113
01:12:26.079 --> 01:12:28.760
of the time the actors don't.
They don't even remember, like even if

1114
01:12:28.760 --> 01:12:30.000
it's a fresh movie, they just
made like they just learned their line shot

1115
01:12:30.079 --> 01:12:32.760
up and that was it, you
know. I mean some of them will

1116
01:12:32.800 --> 01:12:34.600
like get into it. If they're
a producer or whatever, they have more

1117
01:12:34.640 --> 01:12:36.960
to say about. If you've heard
some actor commentaries, it's like, did

1118
01:12:38.039 --> 01:12:40.840
you really get that much out of
it? You know? So yeah,

1119
01:12:40.840 --> 01:12:43.199
But I think having a lot of
these, especially when you have multiple tracks,

1120
01:12:43.199 --> 01:12:45.239
it's always fun getting these different angles
on the films. You know,

1121
01:12:45.239 --> 01:12:48.279
it's really fun. I loved when
Sean Baker was on the channel. He

1122
01:12:48.319 --> 01:12:55.600
said a lot of directors speak in
a way that is not super well versed

1123
01:12:55.600 --> 01:12:59.600
about their own films, so sometimes
it does better to have other people.

1124
01:12:59.600 --> 01:13:01.880
And that's actually for Red Rocket.
That's why he asked kat Ellinger to do

1125
01:13:01.920 --> 01:13:04.600
the commentary for it, because he's
like, this is all about Italian sex

1126
01:13:04.600 --> 01:13:11.199
comedy. She can probably speak on
it way better than I could. So

1127
01:13:11.239 --> 01:13:15.760
you talked about ranking your favorite releases
of the year for Mondo Digital and this

1128
01:13:15.840 --> 01:13:18.039
is the perfect time to go back
and talk about this. That was just

1129
01:13:18.039 --> 01:13:24.000
announced this week that Nathaniel is also
a part of the Creator Selection Committee with

1130
01:13:24.079 --> 01:13:29.600
us. We announced this week that
The Disconnected and the Chasing Labels podcast are

1131
01:13:29.640 --> 01:13:34.680
working together to create the Shelf Shock
Rewind twenty twenty two disc Awards. This

1132
01:13:34.720 --> 01:13:39.399
is going to be on February nineteenth
of early next year. We're going to

1133
01:13:39.479 --> 01:13:44.000
do a live award show. We
are already working tirelessly behind the scenes.

1134
01:13:44.039 --> 01:13:49.239
Everybody that is on the Creator Selection
Committee have already picked up their releases over

1135
01:13:49.319 --> 01:13:55.359
last year, poured through them tirelessly, and given nominations across twenty five different

1136
01:13:55.399 --> 01:14:00.680
categories. And we're going to be
starting to announce nominations here soon because everybody

1137
01:14:00.680 --> 01:14:04.760
can start to vote on all of
these starting on December fifteenth, and voting

1138
01:14:04.760 --> 01:14:10.319
will be open for a full month
from December fifteenth to January fifteenth. The

1139
01:14:10.359 --> 01:14:15.520
big thing is our Creator Selection Committee
will be voting again once we get nominations

1140
01:14:15.560 --> 01:14:19.359
on, so that we can have
a creator's picked winner for every category,

1141
01:14:19.399 --> 01:14:24.640
but also the community can pick a
winner for every category, and not only

1142
01:14:24.720 --> 01:14:27.359
will those nominations be there, but
there will also be a rite in option

1143
01:14:27.560 --> 01:14:30.560
just in case your favorite one wasn't
there, and we'll pull a winner for

1144
01:14:30.560 --> 01:14:33.520
each of those, and each category
will have two winners that way, and

1145
01:14:33.520 --> 01:14:36.880
it'll be interesting to compare. You
know, what did the community pick was

1146
01:14:36.920 --> 01:14:43.920
best, what did the selection committee
pick as best? And these are the

1147
01:14:43.960 --> 01:14:47.199
category so that you can start to
study for them. We've got best overall

1148
01:14:47.199 --> 01:14:51.279
release, obviously, we've got best
Region A and B release. We've got

1149
01:14:51.520 --> 01:14:57.600
favorite Region A and Region B label, which is something that the Creator Selection

1150
01:14:57.720 --> 01:15:00.199
Committee did not vote on. That's
all only going to be for the community.

1151
01:15:01.000 --> 01:15:03.840
We got best new Label. There
were a handful of labels that put

1152
01:15:03.840 --> 01:15:09.279
out their very first release this year. Unfortunately, something like Radiance, they

1153
01:15:09.279 --> 01:15:12.039
didn't get anything out in twenty twenty
two, so that's not eligible un till

1154
01:15:12.079 --> 01:15:15.800
next year. Then we've got best
annual slate, which will be when you

1155
01:15:16.079 --> 01:15:19.319
think about all of the titles released
by a label, who do you think

1156
01:15:19.359 --> 01:15:24.800
put out the best slate of titles
for the entire year? And I got

1157
01:15:24.920 --> 01:15:27.439
to say it's hard to compete with
Keino when they put out, you know,

1158
01:15:28.039 --> 01:15:34.399
four and twelve movies a year,
Best box Set, best Artwork,

1159
01:15:34.600 --> 01:15:41.079
best packaging design, and best extrast
package, including best booklet, commentary,

1160
01:15:41.119 --> 01:15:45.920
interview, visual essay. Those are
all pretty self explanatory ones that I had

1161
01:15:45.920 --> 01:15:48.520
to go look through a lot of
my releases that came out in twenty twenty

1162
01:15:48.600 --> 01:15:53.520
two and really make some tough cuts. Then we got some genre ones like

1163
01:15:53.600 --> 01:15:57.640
best Martial Arts Release, Best Comedy
Released, Animated Release, Horror Release,

1164
01:15:58.000 --> 01:16:03.039
Classic film release for classic we're saying
that's before nineteen forty. We've got best

1165
01:16:03.079 --> 01:16:09.920
Audio and Video Presentation, Best Home
Video restoration upgrade from its last release.

1166
01:16:10.199 --> 01:16:13.199
And then we got some studio catalog
releases that we're going to highlight as well

1167
01:16:13.199 --> 01:16:16.600
because they deserve some as well,
especially Sony I would say, so that's

1168
01:16:16.600 --> 01:16:19.920
the shelf Shock Rewind Awards. Just
wanted to throw that out there so everybody

1169
01:16:19.920 --> 01:16:25.039
could talk about it and get prepared
because I am, first of all,

1170
01:16:25.039 --> 01:16:28.439
I'm stoked that you wanted to be
involved. I'm very stoked to be involved

1171
01:16:28.439 --> 01:16:30.720
as well. It was actually really
fun putting together, like the form that

1172
01:16:30.720 --> 01:16:33.600
you sent out with all of the
nominees. It was a little stortal memory

1173
01:16:33.640 --> 01:16:36.920
lane for the past year. It
was for a year. This was It

1174
01:16:38.039 --> 01:16:42.960
really was to me. It felt
like there weren't as many I don't know,

1175
01:16:43.000 --> 01:16:45.319
maybe there weren't as many like shining
stars this year that really hit for

1176
01:16:45.439 --> 01:16:49.680
everything, But I feel like we
got a lot more this year in terms

1177
01:16:49.720 --> 01:16:54.520
of quantity, and not necessarily that
quantity is better than quality, but it's

1178
01:16:54.560 --> 01:16:57.720
still just a super strong year.
Yeah, yeah, it really was.

1179
01:16:57.760 --> 01:16:59.960
I mean, yeah, stunt catalog
terms alone, it was just pretty nut

1180
01:17:00.239 --> 01:17:03.760
just the breadth of it. Yeah, it was really something. I honestly

1181
01:17:03.800 --> 01:17:06.680
would even go out there and say
that this might have been the best studio

1182
01:17:06.760 --> 01:17:12.199
catalog release for me, release a
year for me in probably at least a

1183
01:17:12.239 --> 01:17:15.720
few years, because things like Fright
Night four K, that four K looked

1184
01:17:15.800 --> 01:17:19.600
ridiculously good. Yeah. Well,
those those those set, those Columbia collections

1185
01:17:19.600 --> 01:17:21.479
of Sony's putting on four K,
I mean, those are just those are

1186
01:17:21.479 --> 01:17:24.680
game changers. I think I wish
all the studios would follow that lead.

1187
01:17:24.800 --> 01:17:31.239
It happened to have. Oh and
I don't know what's going on. The

1188
01:17:31.239 --> 01:17:34.319
first one sold out really quickly.
Now you can't find that one anywhere.

1189
01:17:34.600 --> 01:17:38.800
I think the second one, I
don't know if it's still available, but

1190
01:17:38.920 --> 01:17:42.720
it was available for a long time. I would not be surprised if they

1191
01:17:42.720 --> 01:17:45.159
started to go out of print very
quickly. Yeah, probably so. Yeah,

1192
01:17:45.159 --> 01:17:46.880
I think they increased the printround the
second one. I think they were

1193
01:17:46.880 --> 01:17:48.840
a little shocked at how fast the
first one went. It was like,

1194
01:17:49.840 --> 01:17:53.279
yeah, you can still get the
second one. It looks like one hundred

1195
01:17:53.279 --> 01:17:56.359
and and oh never mind that's only
used. Maybe it is out of print.

1196
01:17:56.720 --> 01:17:59.760
Really wow when the third one came
in, when they did that in

1197
01:17:59.800 --> 01:18:01.880
the Sony Classics one got announced,
Yeah, looks up in the soil around.

1198
01:18:01.920 --> 01:18:05.199
But yeah, I think it's going
now. That Sony Pictures Classics.

1199
01:18:05.239 --> 01:18:09.880
I really hope they do another box
set for that because Sony Pictures Classics is

1200
01:18:09.920 --> 01:18:15.199
one of the most prolific, one
of the most really hit for hit,

1201
01:18:15.399 --> 01:18:19.800
best studio runs in a long time. For any of these lines, you

1202
01:18:19.800 --> 01:18:25.520
could probably name three different top ten
lists from Sony Pictures Classics and not get

1203
01:18:25.640 --> 01:18:29.079
arguments on any of them because they're
all that good. Ye. Now,

1204
01:18:29.079 --> 01:18:31.479
if Warner Brothers would give us a
fine line you wishd set, that'd be

1205
01:18:31.520 --> 01:18:36.840
a nice competitor. But you know, I just wish Warner Brothers would again

1206
01:18:36.880 --> 01:18:41.800
pick up some of the quality that
they compete with Sony. I want some

1207
01:18:41.880 --> 01:18:45.560
of the other studios to compete with
Sony. Yeah, Flickering says, going

1208
01:18:45.560 --> 01:18:48.920
through the years, purchases slowly,
but favorites may still come from the gut.

1209
01:18:49.239 --> 01:18:56.479
There's a lot here for sure.
Let's see stan Geeze says. Tim

1210
01:18:56.560 --> 01:19:00.760
Lucas is a treasure talking about video
Watchdogs. Still, yes he is.

1211
01:19:01.239 --> 01:19:06.640
Any other questions for Nathaniel before we
give him his night back. Lots of

1212
01:19:06.680 --> 01:19:11.319
good stuff coming out soon, more
stuff getting announced. So, oh,

1213
01:19:11.439 --> 01:19:14.079
I'll think of one right now.
I think you're on that first release from

1214
01:19:14.079 --> 01:19:19.399
Treasured Films. Correct, Yes,
I am. That label sounds really exciting.

1215
01:19:19.439 --> 01:19:23.600
Anything you want to tell us about
that release? Yeah? So they

1216
01:19:23.640 --> 01:19:27.840
are putting out a UK edition of
the Last Time in the Antonio Margeriti vietnam'sploitation

1217
01:19:28.000 --> 01:19:31.600
Classic, which was a blast.
I got to a track with Troy and

1218
01:19:31.880 --> 01:19:36.199
Janie Rikloney and we had a great
time watching it through the magic consumes since

1219
01:19:36.199 --> 01:19:41.319
we're all in very, very different
geographic locations. I think he wins the

1220
01:19:41.600 --> 01:19:45.560
prize for the furthest distance for a
commentary I've done. But yeah, I

1221
01:19:45.600 --> 01:19:47.479
didn't really going on with this release. As you know. The American release

1222
01:19:47.520 --> 01:19:50.000
was pretty threadbare. But yeah,
they're really going to talent with us when

1223
01:19:50.000 --> 01:19:54.479
I'm bout showing you some love because
that movie is just really insane. I

1224
01:19:54.600 --> 01:19:58.920
love that one since the VHS days. Yeah, Graham, who is the

1225
01:19:58.960 --> 01:20:02.319
gentleman behind Treasured Film, seems to
really be giving this first one all that

1226
01:20:02.399 --> 01:20:06.119
he can possibly throw into it,
and it looks like it's gonna be a

1227
01:20:06.119 --> 01:20:10.399
great release. I hope it does
very well for him. Seeing a new

1228
01:20:10.439 --> 01:20:15.880
label jump into it like that is
scary because it's risky, But for something

1229
01:20:15.960 --> 01:20:18.479
like that, when you can feel
somebody's passion like that, I hope that

1230
01:20:18.600 --> 01:20:24.159
these collectors grab onto it because it
again just looks incredible. Yeah, yeah,

1231
01:20:24.159 --> 01:20:29.199
it should be a winner and Eugenio
was on the channel fairly recently,

1232
01:20:29.319 --> 01:20:32.640
and that guy. I posted the
video and my wife walks by as I

1233
01:20:32.680 --> 01:20:35.039
was editing it, and she talked
to me for like just a second,

1234
01:20:35.039 --> 01:20:44.720
looked down and went, damn,
he's hot. He is such a fun

1235
01:20:44.760 --> 01:20:46.680
person to speak to. Got to
talk to him while he was in Rome.

1236
01:20:47.119 --> 01:20:50.359
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I've
done a few trucks with him and

1237
01:20:50.399 --> 01:20:54.199
yeah, he's always a lot of
fun. Yeah, especially with me and

1238
01:20:54.239 --> 01:20:56.520
Troy and him together on track.
Yeah, we have a good time.

1239
01:20:57.359 --> 01:20:59.600
Yeah. I can't wait to hear
that. And I think you didn't you

1240
01:20:59.600 --> 01:21:02.840
guys just announce another commentary that the
three of you were on are my mister?

1241
01:21:03.319 --> 01:21:06.279
I think I think they did announce
that we did. I think they

1242
01:21:06.279 --> 01:21:09.840
already announced that we did one for
Tentacles for the UK release of that.

1243
01:21:09.960 --> 01:21:13.159
Yes, yes, yeah, which, Yeah, that one was quite fun.

1244
01:21:13.159 --> 01:21:15.079
If you've seen the film, you
know it is. It's quite a

1245
01:21:15.119 --> 01:21:17.520
daffy movie, just for the Ward
of Choices alone. Un once see Shelley

1246
01:21:17.520 --> 01:21:21.000
Winners running around with a little sailor
hat. But yeah, the movie's really

1247
01:21:21.000 --> 01:21:24.560
psychotic, and yeah, we had
we had a great time sort of going

1248
01:21:24.600 --> 01:21:29.439
through that one. Yeah, eighty
eight putting out a much better release than

1249
01:21:29.479 --> 01:21:32.399
the Keynote release of that one.
It sounds like Damien says, hope to

1250
01:21:32.399 --> 01:21:38.359
hear more commentaries with Nathaniel and Bruce
Holichek. I hope so too. He's

1251
01:21:38.399 --> 01:21:41.359
been a little tied up doing a
lot of Hong Kong titles. He's doing

1252
01:21:41.359 --> 01:21:44.600
some Category three stuff which I've actually
been engineering. I've been recording them.

1253
01:21:44.640 --> 01:21:46.239
But as I said before, I
love Hong Kong films, but it's not

1254
01:21:46.319 --> 01:21:49.359
my area of expertise. I would
sound like a complete more on if I

1255
01:21:49.439 --> 01:21:54.800
tried to speak about them. So
but yeah, he and Art have been

1256
01:21:54.800 --> 01:21:59.079
doing a lot that I've been been
doing the mixing and engineering on. But

1257
01:21:59.159 --> 01:22:00.399
yeah, hopefully I another time one
comes along. I love doing on.

1258
01:22:00.600 --> 01:22:04.720
Bruce is just a fantastic guy.
He's one of my very favorite two commentators.

1259
01:22:05.279 --> 01:22:11.239
Nice Ice again says, so for
someone who enjoys pulp comics like The

1260
01:22:11.279 --> 01:22:14.000
Shadow of the Spider, et cetera, should I dive into the novels like

1261
01:22:14.119 --> 01:22:17.159
Doc Savage or Green Lama? Do
you know anything about any of that?

1262
01:22:17.840 --> 01:22:21.560
Dok Savage novels are great if you
haven't read that, those are fantastic.

1263
01:22:23.640 --> 01:22:26.439
Yeah, yeah, really really great. They I'm actually shocked they haven't done

1264
01:22:26.439 --> 01:22:29.720
like a dark Savage movie at aside
from the George Collin that we got,

1265
01:22:29.760 --> 01:22:32.000
which is sort of like a winky
it's kind of sort of they did,

1266
01:22:32.000 --> 01:22:34.600
like a real, full throttle doock
Savage movie. That would just be fantastic.

1267
01:22:34.640 --> 01:22:39.239
But yes, I would say for
sure. I I don't know why,

1268
01:22:39.279 --> 01:22:42.159
it just jumped into my head.
I would love to see the old

1269
01:22:42.439 --> 01:22:45.520
Dick Tracy in four K. That
movie would look incredible. Oh my god,

1270
01:22:45.560 --> 01:22:50.720
can you imagine anything? The Tory
Show should be in four K?

1271
01:22:49.439 --> 01:22:56.399
Yeah, but yeah, I think
would be blinding in four K flickering waves.

1272
01:22:56.439 --> 01:22:59.279
If you were given the assignment of
taking a deep dive on a specific

1273
01:22:59.359 --> 01:23:04.319
country or region, is there one
that you would pick? Well, depends

1274
01:23:04.319 --> 01:23:09.039
on the genre. I think if
you're into horror, obviously, Italy is

1275
01:23:09.079 --> 01:23:12.039
one that you should definitely be well
versed in because I mean, it's just

1276
01:23:12.920 --> 01:23:15.560
you know, it's a tidal wave. But I mean, French cinema is

1277
01:23:15.600 --> 01:23:16.960
just like a treader jest that you
never can get to the bottom of them.

1278
01:23:16.960 --> 01:23:20.159
And there's so much I love German
films. I mean Japanese films,

1279
01:23:20.159 --> 01:23:23.840
Hong Kong. It depends. I
mean, you can just follow your own

1280
01:23:23.840 --> 01:23:25.840
compass, like just try a little
bit everything or whatever you like. I

1281
01:23:25.840 --> 01:23:27.840
want to see more of that,
you know, it's like your heart kind

1282
01:23:27.880 --> 01:23:30.880
of tells you which way to go. But yeah, Italy is the one

1283
01:23:30.880 --> 01:23:32.399
that I really got into first as
a as a kid. They were kind

1284
01:23:32.439 --> 01:23:36.760
of like my gateway into like everything
else. So yeah, that'll be my

1285
01:23:36.800 --> 01:23:42.239
answer, But your your manage may
vary. And thankfully with all these boutiques,

1286
01:23:42.359 --> 01:23:45.359
you can kind of do that.
Nowadays, there's so much coming from

1287
01:23:45.359 --> 01:23:49.239
every country. You can give yourself
literally your own film festival, line something

1288
01:23:49.319 --> 01:23:54.920
up, do a couple of days
worth of research and get a full blown

1289
01:23:54.920 --> 01:24:00.239
whether it's chronological, whether it's a
tour related, whether it is a full

1290
01:24:00.239 --> 01:24:03.000
blown genre deep dive. There are
so many different ways nowadays that you can

1291
01:24:03.119 --> 01:24:10.000
just educate yourself on something entirely based
on physical media releases. Yeah, I

1292
01:24:10.039 --> 01:24:13.000
mean, if you just look at
those Criterion martinscrts as eboxes they're putting out

1293
01:24:13.000 --> 01:24:15.119
where it's like, I mean they're
hitting like every country on the globe and

1294
01:24:15.520 --> 01:24:18.680
it's like, whoa, where are
you pulling this from. Yeah, I

1295
01:24:18.720 --> 01:24:21.399
don't think there's a country that's not
represented at some point on Blu Ray by

1296
01:24:21.439 --> 01:24:26.520
this point. It's a good good
call, uh, I says, is

1297
01:24:26.520 --> 01:24:30.520
there anything that you watch every single
year? Personally? I watch Tokyo Godfathers

1298
01:24:30.520 --> 01:24:39.960
on Christmas every year. Good choice, not association I would make, but

1299
01:24:40.000 --> 01:24:47.640
sure an annual watch. That's a
good question. Actually is a good question,

1300
01:24:48.920 --> 01:24:54.239
hmm. Not on purpose. For
some reason, every year I seem

1301
01:24:54.279 --> 01:24:56.560
to watch The Beyond. And I
don't know because it's usually there's a friend

1302
01:24:56.560 --> 01:24:58.520
who hasn't seen it, or like
I wind up having to go see a

1303
01:24:58.560 --> 01:25:00.680
concert Fritz he does it live or
whatever. But Beyond is one that I

1304
01:25:00.720 --> 01:25:04.680
see, almost like clockwork, on
annual basis. Yeah, that's the one

1305
01:25:04.720 --> 01:25:08.840
that's almost always in the fall.
I don't know why. That is obviously

1306
01:25:08.840 --> 01:25:11.680
Halloween three season of the which always
pop on in October like it's just like

1307
01:25:11.720 --> 01:25:14.159
a religion. And most people do
the first one, which is great,

1308
01:25:14.199 --> 01:25:15.279
but I don't know why. I've
always got to have my little Halloween three

1309
01:25:15.279 --> 01:25:19.880
fix. That new four K for
Halloween three is mind blowing. Yeah,

1310
01:25:19.960 --> 01:25:25.840
God, it's great. The frizzy
thing I just spoke to somebody that just

1311
01:25:25.840 --> 01:25:28.800
went to one of the live performances
and got to see The Beyond with the

1312
01:25:29.359 --> 01:25:31.560
new score and all that that's coming
from grind House Releasing said that it was

1313
01:25:31.560 --> 01:25:35.239
a revelation and gave it just glowing
reviews. Have you seen the new version

1314
01:25:35.319 --> 01:25:39.800
yet? I haven't seen the transfer, but I've seen him do the new

1315
01:25:39.800 --> 01:25:42.119
score live. The new score is
a lot of fun. It's not really

1316
01:25:42.159 --> 01:25:44.880
a new score, it's all of
this leading it's it's the old score of

1317
01:25:44.920 --> 01:25:46.760
music put into it. So it's
kind of like it's almost like an opera

1318
01:25:46.840 --> 01:25:49.359
now that the music barely lets up
to the movie except during some of the

1319
01:25:49.359 --> 01:25:53.399
dialogue scenes. But he had like
a new scene into it that kind of

1320
01:25:53.399 --> 01:25:58.159
comes in and out. But yeah, it's it's really beautiful nice. I'm

1321
01:25:58.439 --> 01:26:01.239
very excited for that. The Beyond
is incredible obviously, but I just can't

1322
01:26:01.239 --> 01:26:04.199
wait untill we start getting some deep
dive on Fulci. When are we going

1323
01:26:04.279 --> 01:26:09.800
to get some of these non horror, some of the earlier films on Blue

1324
01:26:09.840 --> 01:26:12.279
You think, well, that's kind
of like a running joke with me and

1325
01:26:12.319 --> 01:26:15.199
Troy, like who's going to do
the full chi like comedy box set collection?

1326
01:26:15.399 --> 01:26:16.439
He did it fun? I mean, and some of them are actually

1327
01:26:16.479 --> 01:26:19.600
like streaming an HD on Amazon,
you can actually read them to take a

1328
01:26:19.640 --> 01:26:23.199
look at He had some of those
Franco and Chicho comedies which are actually really

1329
01:26:23.199 --> 01:26:25.840
fun and they kind of feel like
Fulci, which is weird, like you

1330
01:26:25.840 --> 01:26:28.079
can feel his fingerprints in there,
you know, a sense of humor.

1331
01:26:29.000 --> 01:26:30.279
But yeah, someone just got a
license. I don't know if maybe somebody

1332
01:26:30.279 --> 01:26:32.760
like Severn is going to be crazy
enough to do a blue rayset of his

1333
01:26:32.800 --> 01:26:36.239
early works, but they're a lot
of fun. I don't know. But

1334
01:26:36.479 --> 01:26:40.479
he and like Tinto Brass, were
guys who both just made tons of comedies

1335
01:26:40.520 --> 01:26:44.000
like in the sixties that even into
the seventies there's still more Fulci comedies that,

1336
01:26:44.680 --> 01:26:47.560
yeah, nobody's touched on. He'd
one called Young Dracula Ordracula Provinces.

1337
01:26:48.199 --> 01:26:51.279
It's just wacko. But I really
hope somebody puts it out of Blue Rate

1338
01:26:51.279 --> 01:26:54.720
here something because thank people's jaws,
which is drop when they see it.

1339
01:26:55.399 --> 01:26:59.880
Who knows. I'd love to see
it, and with more and more love

1340
01:27:00.079 --> 01:27:02.680
and people like Franco, I just
hope more people are willing to take a

1341
01:27:02.760 --> 01:27:05.479
chance on some of these titles once
they see that they're actually interested in some

1342
01:27:05.520 --> 01:27:09.079
of the deep dives. Yeah,
yeah, I really hope. So,

1343
01:27:09.119 --> 01:27:11.920
I mean there's still so much stuff
we haven't gotten yet. So people are

1344
01:27:11.920 --> 01:27:13.600
saying, Oh, the labels a
gonna run ont of stuff to put out.

1345
01:27:13.600 --> 01:27:16.199
I'm like, not even clothes.
There's like decades left to work.

1346
01:27:16.399 --> 01:27:18.920
I mean, if you could pouring
through the stuff. Yeah, yeah,

1347
01:27:18.920 --> 01:27:21.880
we'ven't come close to tapping it out
yet. Well, we just talked about

1348
01:27:21.880 --> 01:27:27.079
foreign countries. There's still foreign countries
that haven't even begin to scratch the surface.

1349
01:27:27.119 --> 01:27:31.680
Really. Oh yeah, yeah,
yeah, it's it's November. Lots

1350
01:27:31.680 --> 01:27:36.239
of people are watching film noir in
November. What are some of your favorites

1351
01:27:38.479 --> 01:27:44.640
my favorites? Yes, oh my
god, are we talking like classic film

1352
01:27:44.680 --> 01:27:49.039
noir? Like like translate how you
would like, because yeah, we're including

1353
01:27:49.079 --> 01:27:53.520
neo noir. That's that gets a
little trickier. I mean, I love

1354
01:27:53.560 --> 01:27:55.960
the Killing. That's one that I
watched. Really just say, I love

1355
01:27:55.960 --> 01:28:00.560
that one. Leave It to Happen
is a masterpiece. Oh god, god,

1356
01:28:00.600 --> 01:28:06.960
there's so many anything that John Alton
shot pretty much. I mean I

1357
01:28:08.239 --> 01:28:11.319
just watched the three D e The
Jury the other day, just mind blowing.

1358
01:28:11.319 --> 01:28:15.000
But anything he shot pretty much that's
an r you can't go wrong.

1359
01:28:15.640 --> 01:28:18.800
God, there's tons that's gun for
higher. Yeah, there's lots, and

1360
01:28:18.840 --> 01:28:20.600
you wanna go to the Neon War. I mean, Last Seductions one of

1361
01:28:20.600 --> 01:28:25.640
my very favorites, you know.
I love that one the pieces wild Things

1362
01:28:25.640 --> 01:28:28.800
I would consider a neo wir as
well, which is just an absolute blast.

1363
01:28:28.840 --> 01:28:30.279
So yeah, I just off the
top of my head, I'm probably

1364
01:28:30.279 --> 01:28:33.159
forgetting some major ones that I love, but yeah, we all do that.
