1
00:00:23.480 --> 00:00:28.239
What's going on all I'm so glad
to see everybody hear waiting it is.

2
00:00:29.039 --> 00:00:33.920
It's gonna be a pretty incredible night
tonight. I'm I'm so stoked, legitimately

3
00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:38.280
been counting down for this all week. There is so so much to go

4
00:00:38.399 --> 00:00:43.679
over, just a litany of announcements
this week, and then on top of

5
00:00:43.679 --> 00:00:46.119
that, in just a couple of
minutes, I'm gonna be introducing a friend

6
00:00:46.159 --> 00:00:50.560
of mine that is going to make
this show just incredible tonight. I am

7
00:00:50.600 --> 00:00:54.719
so stoked. Glad you guys are
here. First off, see who is

8
00:00:54.799 --> 00:00:59.000
here in the chat? My man
Brian, what's going on? Mitchell's here?

9
00:00:59.799 --> 00:01:03.799
Hey, Hey Mitchell, Derek,
how are you? One hundred Good

10
00:01:03.799 --> 00:01:08.200
to see you tonight. My man
Eric is here also, Hey, Jeff,

11
00:01:08.319 --> 00:01:12.519
glad to see here after seeing you
in the discord earlier. Speaking of

12
00:01:12.560 --> 00:01:15.519
discord, before I get into it, make it awkward with somebody else being

13
00:01:15.519 --> 00:01:21.040
on the channel. Just to call
some attention in case you didn't see it.

14
00:01:21.120 --> 00:01:26.480
I put out a video just yesterday
about a channel update and some of

15
00:01:26.519 --> 00:01:30.519
the cool things that are a part
of it is that I'm planning doing three

16
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:34.480
pre recorded videos a week. I'm
hoping to make this weekly show a audio

17
00:01:34.519 --> 00:01:38.120
podcast that I put out. I
worked on that literally today. That should

18
00:01:38.120 --> 00:01:42.200
be coming out here pretty soon.
I'm planning on by I'm saying by the

19
00:01:42.280 --> 00:01:46.120
end of the month to be a
little conservative about it, but I think

20
00:01:46.120 --> 00:01:51.200
it'll be earlier than that. But
the bigger thing, which really really cool

21
00:01:51.239 --> 00:01:55.400
for the community, I think,
is that I started a Patreon and no

22
00:01:55.400 --> 00:01:57.000
no pressure to join it, nothing
like that, But if you wanted to,

23
00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:00.640
there are a couple tier level that
you can jump into that will get

24
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:06.400
you access to the disconnected Discord,
which for those of you that don't know

25
00:02:06.439 --> 00:02:10.039
what discord is, it's basically a
messaging app where you can come in and

26
00:02:10.599 --> 00:02:14.879
have different channels that we can talk
about different things. But the big thing,

27
00:02:15.080 --> 00:02:17.879
I'm sorry, Siri wanted to get
involved. Sorry. The big thing

28
00:02:17.960 --> 00:02:22.759
that I want to use it for
is if I see like a low price

29
00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:25.080
on something, I can shoot it
out to everybody in the community immediately.

30
00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:30.000
If I see something in stock that
is rare, I can shoot it out

31
00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:32.599
there fast. So if you're into
that, you're open to that idea.

32
00:02:34.039 --> 00:02:38.800
The link for the Patreon is in
the description below. Got some other friends

33
00:02:38.840 --> 00:02:43.080
that joined Ken Carlson. Hey,
Hey, Ken Cohen's here. Glad you

34
00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:46.520
came back. Sartists, My man, you are in for a surprise.

35
00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:51.680
I got a new intro coming for
the Channel and I included a tag like

36
00:02:51.719 --> 00:02:54.599
you see in the bottom corner right
now that is with you and you're gonna

37
00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:59.840
love it. I'm glad that you're
a part of it. Dave's here,

38
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:05.560
what's up Dave? So tonight,
if you have never listened, I'm going

39
00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:09.120
to wholeheartedly push that you listen to
the podcast for a friend of mine that

40
00:03:09.240 --> 00:03:15.159
I'm introducing now. Our guest tonight
is named Chris and he is a member

41
00:03:15.199 --> 00:03:20.800
of a podcast called They Live by
Film and just gosh, it's been a

42
00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:23.199
few weeks now. I can't remember
the date that it went live on the

43
00:03:23.280 --> 00:03:27.120
channel, but I did about an
hour pre recorded with him where we talked

44
00:03:27.159 --> 00:03:31.400
about underappreciated labels five each, labels
that go a little bit under the radar,

45
00:03:31.560 --> 00:03:35.439
and we shared, you know,
personal feelings on them, what we

46
00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:38.840
like about them. And Chris is
great. He is super knowledgeable. He's

47
00:03:38.879 --> 00:03:46.919
got a small group of friends that
he made this really successful podcast with and

48
00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:51.560
last year they they sort of exploded. They started meeting with people in the

49
00:03:51.560 --> 00:03:55.159
industry. They got to meet with
Justin lit Liberty from Vinegar Syndrome, and

50
00:03:55.199 --> 00:03:59.759
from that point on they were just
Sky's the limit. They met with some

51
00:03:59.759 --> 00:04:04.840
people people from Errow, They met
with Lewis Justin from Mascer Video. They

52
00:04:04.919 --> 00:04:11.400
met with the George Eastman Library,
they met with guys from I Believe,

53
00:04:11.400 --> 00:04:15.280
they met with Indicator. They've got
a whole bunch under their belt, and

54
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:17.959
they ask from Most of the time
it's Chris interviewing them. He does the

55
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:24.279
best with that, and then the
actual show itself is three friends that just

56
00:04:24.439 --> 00:04:28.480
talk about movies, and they're super
fun to listen to. But the interviews

57
00:04:28.519 --> 00:04:31.560
that they do are great. There's
a lot of information that some of these

58
00:04:31.560 --> 00:04:34.879
companies are not just putting out there, so it's really nice to hear it

59
00:04:34.959 --> 00:04:41.639
straight from the source. What's going
on? Dustin glad you're here. And

60
00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:46.040
some of these industry people bring up
things like the process for restoring films,

61
00:04:46.079 --> 00:04:53.240
the cost for restoring films, the
way that for example, the Aero video

62
00:04:53.279 --> 00:04:58.879
one, there was a full conversation
about why directors are choosing to have certain

63
00:04:58.920 --> 00:05:02.839
cuts of films on on the disc
rather than maybe the cut of the film

64
00:05:02.879 --> 00:05:06.439
that we're used to, or something
like the color timing that's been a problem

65
00:05:06.439 --> 00:05:10.160
with Criterion, So they talk about
that a little bit. They talk about

66
00:05:10.199 --> 00:05:15.120
how they have to actually negotiate that
with directors. Just really interesting talks.

67
00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:19.279
But if you are into that sort
of thing, it is a great resource

68
00:05:19.319 --> 00:05:23.800
to be able to dive into and
learn more about the hobby, learn more

69
00:05:23.839 --> 00:05:28.800
about what goes into these excellent releases
that we are getting in every single week

70
00:05:28.839 --> 00:05:34.360
for some of us, these releases
that we love, and I fully appreciate

71
00:05:34.480 --> 00:05:39.560
what they are doing because they are
opening some doors to some information that just

72
00:05:39.879 --> 00:05:45.120
were not opened previously. And there
is also a link for Chris's things in

73
00:05:45.160 --> 00:05:49.519
the description below. There is the
podcast, there is their website. They

74
00:05:49.560 --> 00:05:54.199
have a subreddit for those of you
that are on Reddit where they meet up.

75
00:05:54.600 --> 00:05:58.399
Chris actually has his own subreddit and
he talks about films that he watches.

76
00:05:58.399 --> 00:06:00.959
He does polls, he he does
like top ten list things like that,

77
00:06:01.439 --> 00:06:08.600
he is fantastic. Cam's here,
what's going on? Nerd? Yes,

78
00:06:08.759 --> 00:06:13.160
So Chris is driving home and we'll
be on in just a moment.

79
00:06:14.079 --> 00:06:17.959
One thing that I do on the
show frequently is a digital giveaway. So

80
00:06:18.040 --> 00:06:21.839
for those of you that are keen, I'm gonna do one now, and

81
00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:26.680
we're also gonna do one after all
of the announcements for the week. So

82
00:06:26.720 --> 00:06:30.480
the first one I'm gonna do is

one of these at the end of
the channel at the end of the broadcast

93
00:07:44.759 --> 00:07:47.920
tonight, just so everybody can hang
around flickerings here, what's going on,

94
00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:55.160
flickering glad to see you let me
know if You've got that apocalypse now,

95
00:07:55.240 --> 00:07:58.319
so I know I can get rid
of the slip. And for that one,

96
00:07:58.639 --> 00:08:03.160
I wanted to say thanks to Derek
Ambrose, who is a part of

97
00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:07.959
the stream tonight he said, hey, he donated that for everybody. Derek

98
00:08:07.199 --> 00:08:13.480
is somebody that imported I believe the
Steel Book up to Canada, and in

99
00:08:13.519 --> 00:08:15.959
Canada he can't redeem that, so
we wanted to give it back to the

100
00:08:15.959 --> 00:08:18.639
community. So thanks Derek. We
appreciate you. Glad you did that.

101
00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:24.319
Hey, hey, Zachary Brian,
thanks for having Chris on. Hopefully he's

102
00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:31.040
not too late. Yeah, that's
Chris for you. Derek again, thank

103
00:08:31.079 --> 00:08:37.000
you. You are awesome. Jeff
says, I think that's one of the

104
00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:39.440
films I told my girlfriend to get
me for my birthday. That would have

105
00:08:39.480 --> 00:08:48.200
been perfect. Nice free digital.
All right, that is awesome. Let's

106
00:08:48.200 --> 00:08:54.200
see Sarta says, watched Hypnosis and
ham on Rye today. No problem recommending

107
00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:58.120
Hypnosis ham on Rye is a mumblecored
ooh that is why I bought it.

108
00:08:58.240 --> 00:09:01.120
I am stoked on ham on Rye. I really want to see it.

109
00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:07.159
But a very solid recommendation on Hypnosis
from startis at least and for everybody on

110
00:09:07.159 --> 00:09:13.039
the channel. You know, I
highly I usually agree with pretty much everything.

111
00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:16.879
STARTA says there's a couple things we're
very different on. All right,

112
00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:24.519
I think it's about time we start
looking at some of these and the very

113
00:09:24.559 --> 00:09:26.679
first one we're going to talk about
it's not super important, so hopefully Chris

114
00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:31.679
is here before we get to the
second one. So let me share the

115
00:09:31.759 --> 00:09:39.519
disconnected Instagram all right. After last
week's show, the very first announcement was

116
00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:43.240
one that we're going to be talking
about a lot tonight. Candy Man in

117
00:09:43.559 --> 00:09:48.879
four K coming from Turbine Media.
So for those of you that don't know,

118
00:09:48.960 --> 00:09:54.559
Turbine Media is the company that put
out like the American Werewolf in London

119
00:09:54.639 --> 00:09:58.080
four K before Aro did it.
They are the ones that put out I

120
00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:03.159
believe that giant Psycho set, not
four K, but with everything in it

121
00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:07.720
that they put out that first giant
big box of all of the Psycho films,

122
00:10:07.879 --> 00:10:11.399
a big German book, stuff like
that. Obviously they're from Germany,

123
00:10:11.840 --> 00:10:18.039
but lately they've been really pushing on
media books and digipacks. So this is

124
00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:22.200
coming with three different cover options in
four K, and you can see the

125
00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:26.519
covers here. But I got a
little bit of a closer look, and

126
00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:33.519
here they are, so this I
guess they're in reverse order. This is

127
00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:39.360
cover C, this is Cover B
the Classic, and then this is cover

128
00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:43.120
A. They're fairly new artwork.
I don't think that's been used previously.

129
00:10:46.799 --> 00:10:50.399
Zach says. Their leatherface release looks
so great almost makes me forget how bad

130
00:10:50.440 --> 00:10:54.480
the movie is. All right,
And of course, like I said,

131
00:10:56.200 --> 00:11:00.000
now that I'm talking about the first
one, Chris is here, so we're

132
00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:03.799
gonna bring him on to the show. My man, how are we doing?

133
00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:07.240
Hey, how's the how's it going? Good to see you. I

134
00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:11.720
gave you this big, lengthy introduction
and really praised they live by film,

135
00:11:11.799 --> 00:11:16.360
so man, well thank you.
Unfortunately I don't have a private limo service

136
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:22.039
yet, and you have kids,
so you know how this goes. They

137
00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:26.240
were trying to coordinate a few things, but I'm here. I've got whistle

138
00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:33.159
pig to celebrate the occasion, nice
and and Topuchico for for the for the

139
00:11:33.159 --> 00:11:37.759
SIPs in between. And I was
going to try to draw on the whiteboard

140
00:11:37.840 --> 00:11:39.919
behind me, but this pens out
of ink, so I won't be doing

141
00:11:39.960 --> 00:11:43.519
anything funny. I saw you reach
for it. I was gonna wait,

142
00:11:43.559 --> 00:11:46.440
and then I saw you turn around
me and I was like, Okay,

143
00:11:46.440 --> 00:11:50.480
I guess we're going. I wish
I did have a private limo. My

144
00:11:50.519 --> 00:11:54.000
son did tonight. I I took
him to cub Scouts right before this and

145
00:11:54.440 --> 00:11:58.440
literally stumbled in just a few minutes
before I got everything set up. So

146
00:11:58.159 --> 00:12:03.440
just barely until it goes. Well, cheers to cheers to running kids around.

147
00:12:03.600 --> 00:12:05.879
But thanks for the kind of words. And it looks I saw I

148
00:12:05.919 --> 00:12:09.759
saw Zach is here too, which
is state that thanks for joining Zach.

149
00:12:09.799 --> 00:12:13.279
That's cool. Yeah. For those
that don't know, Zach is also from

150
00:12:13.320 --> 00:12:16.080
the They Live by Film podcast.
He is a big part of it.

151
00:12:16.600 --> 00:12:18.440
And uh yeah, just a great
team all around. Like I said,

152
00:12:18.960 --> 00:12:22.799
uh, the only one that we've
talked about is the German four K of

153
00:12:22.840 --> 00:12:26.039
candy Man. But like I said, we got we got some more candy

154
00:12:26.039 --> 00:12:28.240
Man to talk about. Tonight.
He knocked on the door three times and

155
00:12:28.320 --> 00:12:33.879
I came into the room. I've
actually, yeah, that's well, we

156
00:12:33.919 --> 00:12:37.519
don't have to if you've already talked
about it, we don't have to get

157
00:12:37.519 --> 00:12:39.919
into it. But very exciting.
That means there's a four K scan out

158
00:12:39.919 --> 00:12:43.200
there, so I can't wait to
see what else is? What else is

159
00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:46.039
on the horizon? Well, we
won't have to wait too long, as

160
00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:50.559
they say, so right after this, the very next morning, we started

161
00:12:50.559 --> 00:12:56.000
getting some Arrow announcements, and up
first is Girls' Night Out from nineteen eighty

162
00:12:56.000 --> 00:13:01.159
two, and this one was also
called The Scare Me. And the way

163
00:13:01.159 --> 00:13:03.080
that Arrow announced this, a lot
of people thought that these were two different

164
00:13:03.120 --> 00:13:07.279
films, but they are not.
So this is one slipcover they're doing,

165
00:13:07.320 --> 00:13:13.279
and then there's a second slipcover that
is the alternate title of The Scaremaker.

166
00:13:13.360 --> 00:13:16.679
But these are both the exact same
film. Yeah, so whichever one you

167
00:13:16.720 --> 00:13:20.879
want to go with, they are
both available. And for this one,

168
00:13:20.159 --> 00:13:26.320
this is the students of DeWitt University
are preparing themselves for a night of fun

169
00:13:26.399 --> 00:13:30.360
and frolics in the form of an
all night scavenger hunt. Little do they

170
00:13:30.360 --> 00:13:33.080
know that they are, in fact
the ones being hunted. An unhinged assailant

171
00:13:33.120 --> 00:13:39.360
disguised in the college's goofy bear mascot
outfit and bearing knives for claws. Two

172
00:13:39.399 --> 00:13:43.559
years before Freddy donned his famous gloves
is stocking the campus help bent on carving

173
00:13:43.720 --> 00:13:50.039
up co eds, so immediately,
I'm all in, I love that synopsis.

174
00:13:50.080 --> 00:13:54.200
Yeah so, and then when when
I read that synopsis and took a

175
00:13:54.200 --> 00:13:58.759
closer look, this slip is actually
really cool. You got the crazy bear

176
00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:01.799
breaking in and the clause coming out
here write it or throat. That is

177
00:14:01.840 --> 00:14:07.519
a great piece of art. Yeah. I wonder there was a post on

178
00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:11.080
Reddit a couple of days back that
was celebrating all the cover artists. Did

179
00:14:11.080 --> 00:14:16.120
you see that? I did not. There was a It actually put the

180
00:14:16.120 --> 00:14:18.559
picture of like the people that were
behind the cover r. I don't know

181
00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:24.360
that this specific one was on there, but Criterion was on there. Actually,

182
00:14:24.399 --> 00:14:26.679
you know what, it may have
been a Criterion post. Maybe that's

183
00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:28.799
why. And now that I think
about it, maybe it was on the

184
00:14:28.799 --> 00:14:33.960
Criterion sup. But yeah, I
love like to know who's making these designs,

185
00:14:33.960 --> 00:14:35.759
because like, what a fun job
to watch the movies and have to

186
00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:39.399
kind of try to capture the spirit
of the movie in a customer work right,

187
00:14:39.039 --> 00:14:43.960
And not often enough are we even
given the names, let alone credit

188
00:14:43.000 --> 00:14:48.279
with like an Instagram handle or something
to be able to find them. Criterion

189
00:14:48.360 --> 00:14:50.600
is actually really good about it.
At the bottom of most of their announcements,

190
00:14:50.600 --> 00:14:56.080
they do usually credit the artist,
but like Shout Factories, genuinely pretty

191
00:14:56.080 --> 00:15:01.159
open about it usually but not not
all the other ones. Some of them

192
00:15:01.200 --> 00:15:09.519
do. Yeah, according to Lewis
Overritt Massacre, they're all his people that

193
00:15:09.600 --> 00:15:13.159
he found. That's what he claims
for all of the boutiques. Yeah,

194
00:15:13.200 --> 00:15:18.759
everybody uses hit alright, So we'll
see. Ken is asking, so the

195
00:15:18.799 --> 00:15:22.799
Scaremaker slip will have the Osbourne artwork
on the inside, right, Absolutely,

196
00:15:22.879 --> 00:15:26.039
I can pretty much guarantee that it'll
have the opposite will look just like this,

197
00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:31.039
And honestly, this slip will probably
come with the Scaremaker artwork on the

198
00:15:31.039 --> 00:15:35.879
inside as well. I would not
be surprised about that at all, Sartis

199
00:15:35.919 --> 00:15:41.799
says. Anyone else remember the phone
in her hand. We're not all that

200
00:15:41.960 --> 00:15:48.120
young. Other than Girls Night Out. They got an exciting announcement here.

201
00:15:48.320 --> 00:15:54.000
I don't know about you. How
do you feel about Gasper Noue? Okay,

202
00:15:54.159 --> 00:15:58.559
so I know he's a controversial guy. I love his stuff. I

203
00:15:58.559 --> 00:16:04.200
haven't seen lux Aturna, but when
who was it? It was the second

204
00:16:04.279 --> 00:16:10.399
Sight, the Putati Reversible. It
was second Sight right indicator indicator, Yeah,

205
00:16:10.440 --> 00:16:14.039
of course, thank you. That
was an instant buy for me.

206
00:16:14.360 --> 00:16:18.320
I think he's good. I really
like his stuff. I agree, I

207
00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:22.320
do. Obviously he's he's he's struck
some nerves, we'll say, with some

208
00:16:22.440 --> 00:16:26.000
of his releases. This is Luxaturna, one of his newer films. This

209
00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:30.759
is from twenty nineteen and as they
really laid it out here, Gaspernoue,

210
00:16:30.919 --> 00:16:37.080
the arch provocateur of New French extremity, responsible for Irreversible and Enter the Void,

211
00:16:37.600 --> 00:16:42.480
blurs the boundaries between reality and fiction
in lux Aturna, his ode to

212
00:16:42.519 --> 00:16:48.519
the suffering and sacrifices involved in the
creation of art. Now important to know

213
00:16:48.600 --> 00:16:52.600
about this is this is only coming
in the UK from Aero because the US

214
00:16:52.679 --> 00:16:57.960
will see a release from Vineger Syndrome
partner label Yellow Veil Pictures. This was

215
00:16:59.039 --> 00:17:04.160
available to pre order ever so momentarily
on Diabolic and they pulled the listing.

216
00:17:04.599 --> 00:17:10.119
Grindhouse Video also had it listed and
it was pulled just shortly after that.

217
00:17:10.400 --> 00:17:14.960
But this should be pretty readily available
obviously, you can order it straight from

218
00:17:15.079 --> 00:17:21.680
Arrow. I'm willing to bet Orbit
will also get this in I'm sure yes,

219
00:17:21.759 --> 00:17:23.440
Mitchell says. This is the one
Arrow was asked to not release in

220
00:17:23.480 --> 00:17:26.200
the US, and that's because Yellow
Alle was already working on their deal.

221
00:17:26.759 --> 00:17:32.920
Yeah you know what, Actually,
maybe not, because Orbit put up the

222
00:17:32.920 --> 00:17:36.599
Obayashi Trilogy, the Warts, the
anti war trilogy that came out from the

223
00:17:36.720 --> 00:17:40.720
third window, and they pulled it
down, and the next day they had

224
00:17:40.799 --> 00:17:48.240
up the error No is it sorry, the Wicked Warrist and Funky Forest.

225
00:17:48.599 --> 00:17:53.759
No, man, I'm sorry,
that's exactly what it was. Yeah,

226
00:17:53.799 --> 00:17:57.079
it was funky forest and warped forest. And then the next day they pulled

227
00:17:57.079 --> 00:18:00.400
it down and put up the Air
forty four to forty four one. So

228
00:18:00.599 --> 00:18:02.920
maybe even Orbit won't have it,
which would be nuts. They have all

229
00:18:02.920 --> 00:18:06.079
this stuff. Yeah, that's possible. And Orbit's pretty close with vine your

230
00:18:06.119 --> 00:18:07.680
syndrome. They sell a lot of
their stuff. They get all the VSAs

231
00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:11.599
and all that, so that's possible. What's going on, Tom, glad

232
00:18:11.599 --> 00:18:14.279
you're here. So let's go into
this one a little bit. This one

233
00:18:14.359 --> 00:18:21.759
says French cinema icons Charlotte Gainsburg and
Beatrice I'm assuming that's pronounced Dally or Die

234
00:18:22.119 --> 00:18:26.480
playing themselves stars the lead actress and
the director of an experimental film about witches.

235
00:18:27.039 --> 00:18:32.880
But as preparations for the shoot get
underway, they're increasingly chaotic production slowly

236
00:18:32.960 --> 00:18:37.319
unravels as egos and bitter resentments rise
to the surface, threatening to derail the

237
00:18:37.519 --> 00:18:42.599
entire enterprise. This is shot over
just five days and largely improvised by the

238
00:18:42.599 --> 00:18:48.839
superlative cast. Luxaturna is a powerful
hypnotic assault on the senses like no other,

239
00:18:48.920 --> 00:18:55.759
cementing Noway's position as one of the
most incendiary voices in cinema today.

240
00:18:56.279 --> 00:19:02.480
Yeah, it's No Way, so
there's a lot to it. First off,

241
00:19:02.799 --> 00:19:07.240
coming on this brand new audio commentary
by Cat Ellinger, which, if

242
00:19:07.240 --> 00:19:10.039
it wasn't No Way, that alone
would have made me pre order this because

243
00:19:10.039 --> 00:19:12.720
I love cat Ellinger so much.
But to see those two combined, this

244
00:19:14.000 --> 00:19:18.440
is going to be great. Well, I mean, Charlotte Gainsburg is a

245
00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:22.640
hell of an actress too. I'm
trying to remember why vhs Dale Dolly Philis

246
00:19:22.640 --> 00:19:26.640
sounds so familiar. Was she the
one from Betty Blue? Yes, I

247
00:19:26.680 --> 00:19:30.400
believe it does say that, Yes, from Betty Blue and Inside as well.

248
00:19:30.839 --> 00:19:33.440
Yeah, yeah, she's a good
actress too. I mean that's I

249
00:19:33.440 --> 00:19:37.119
mean, he's good, he gets
he gets very talented people in his movies.

250
00:19:37.160 --> 00:19:41.799
But I can't wait to see this. Your counterpart, Zach says they

251
00:19:41.839 --> 00:19:45.119
better offer a better cover or I'm
importing. First off, I don't see

252
00:19:45.119 --> 00:19:49.920
it getting much better than this.
This slip is great. Uh, let's

253
00:19:49.960 --> 00:19:53.799
see other than that one thing I
wanted to highlight here, is there?

254
00:19:53.839 --> 00:19:59.960
A is there? There is a
new brand new visual essay on which crowd

255
00:20:00.319 --> 00:20:04.279
in Cinema by author and critic Miranda
Corkran. Sounds enticing to me. But

256
00:20:04.400 --> 00:20:08.759
then there's also The Flicker, a
thirty minute short film by Tony Conrad,

257
00:20:08.759 --> 00:20:18.240
who's strobing effect inspired LUXATURNA super interesting. Yeah, I'm just thinking of the

258
00:20:18.599 --> 00:20:22.480
sorry that there's two points of interest
there. The first one, you know,

259
00:20:22.519 --> 00:20:25.920
Severn put out the All Haunts brs. It feels like this is a

260
00:20:25.960 --> 00:20:30.680
really good time for kind of like
folk cinema. It really is, and

261
00:20:32.880 --> 00:20:34.640
this fall into that or not.
But speaking of that one that I was

262
00:20:34.680 --> 00:20:37.359
going to bring up later tonight,
but this is the perfect segue, so

263
00:20:37.359 --> 00:20:41.720
I'll just talk about it now.
Did you see twenty twenty one's Antlers?

264
00:20:42.000 --> 00:20:45.400
Oh I'm so bad on current releases. No, but I know it's an

265
00:20:45.440 --> 00:20:49.359
amazing cover. I really want to
see it. I'm usually fairly bad on

266
00:20:49.400 --> 00:20:52.799
them as well. I've forced myself
in the last couple of months to try

267
00:20:52.839 --> 00:20:55.480
to get caught up with a bunch
of them that were on my must watch

268
00:20:55.519 --> 00:20:59.200
list, and I'm still many behind. But I just watched Antlers this week

269
00:20:59.319 --> 00:21:03.359
and it is a very modern folk
horror film and I highly recommend it.

270
00:21:03.359 --> 00:21:08.160
It got awful reviews for some reason, and it turned out to be like

271
00:21:08.279 --> 00:21:14.039
surprisingly good. There's some really good
practical effects, which is rare. Jesse

272
00:21:14.119 --> 00:21:19.119
Plemons is in it and is fricking
great. He is just stupendous. The

273
00:21:19.240 --> 00:21:23.880
acting overall is really good. There
is a couple shoddy CGI scenes that they

274
00:21:23.920 --> 00:21:29.839
had to use CGI on CGIN and
I understand that, but it was It's

275
00:21:29.839 --> 00:21:33.240
about the Wind to Go and it
works pretty well. They do change some

276
00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:38.680
aspects of it, but the practical
effects alone made it a much a must

277
00:21:38.720 --> 00:21:42.359
watch for me. There is a
wicked scene at the end where they show

278
00:21:42.400 --> 00:21:45.480
the actual Wind to Go creature.
And this is not a spoiler. I

279
00:21:45.480 --> 00:21:49.119
wouldn't be saying this, but they
I've never seen this done in a movie.

280
00:21:49.119 --> 00:21:52.680
They have the Wind to Go and
he has the skin of somebody's face

281
00:21:53.400 --> 00:21:56.640
over his face, and it wasn't
like done on purpose. It was just

282
00:21:56.720 --> 00:22:00.880
the way that they they made the
the mythology of the one to Go work

283
00:22:02.160 --> 00:22:04.680
is that it made sense. And
that shot alone was one of the most

284
00:22:04.680 --> 00:22:07.720
gnarly things I've seen in a couple
of years in modern cinema. It was

285
00:22:07.839 --> 00:22:12.720
great. I love it. Have
you ever seen Larry Festenden's Wind to Goo

286
00:22:14.240 --> 00:22:15.920
a long time ago when it first
came out, And first of all,

287
00:22:17.000 --> 00:22:21.359
Larry Festenden does not get spoken about
enough. He is surprisingly good. He's

288
00:22:21.440 --> 00:22:25.200
so good, so low budget stuff, but he tells the whole story,

289
00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:29.720
he really does. And yeah,
and also he acts, and a lot

290
00:22:29.759 --> 00:22:32.720
of people that can write that well, they usually can't act. And he's

291
00:22:32.759 --> 00:22:36.000
not amazing, but he's pretty good. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So

292
00:22:36.279 --> 00:22:40.039
back to gaspar nowa we have this, and this is coming in a slip

293
00:22:40.079 --> 00:22:41.680
release. This isn't getting like one
of the big hard box releases, but

294
00:22:42.440 --> 00:22:47.880
we are getting in a hard box
Enter the Void, the other one that

295
00:22:47.920 --> 00:22:52.400
they just alluded to in that last
announcement. Now, one thing that in

296
00:22:52.440 --> 00:22:57.519
these announcements that a lot of people
don't pick up on when some retailers or

297
00:22:57.559 --> 00:23:03.319
distributors when they announced it and they
have you know, Gaspernoe, the maker

298
00:23:03.480 --> 00:23:08.519
of Enter the Void and blah blah
blah, and they possibly have rights to

299
00:23:08.799 --> 00:23:12.200
release some of the other films.
That means that that other one might be

300
00:23:12.200 --> 00:23:18.079
coming. So if you look on
this last one, they said gasperne who

301
00:23:18.119 --> 00:23:26.240
did Irreversible and Enter the Void.
Obviously they don't have Irreversible, but Irreversible

302
00:23:26.279 --> 00:23:30.000
doesn't have a US release, So
I was thinking, what if maybe eventually

303
00:23:30.000 --> 00:23:33.759
they put out Irreversible in the US. Could be I'm not saying that's coming,

304
00:23:33.839 --> 00:23:37.799
but it's a possibility. So Enter
the Void is not one that got

305
00:23:37.799 --> 00:23:41.599
this huge release, and now it
is time. So this is only again,

306
00:23:41.640 --> 00:23:44.839
only coming in the UK. And
this is from two thousand and nine

307
00:23:45.559 --> 00:23:51.200
and also from Gaspernoe. So this
says American siblings Oscar and Linda eke out

308
00:23:51.240 --> 00:23:55.400
a shared existence in Tokyo, he
by dealing drugs, she by working as

309
00:23:55.440 --> 00:23:59.640
a stripper. However, tragedy strikes
when a deal turns sour and Oscar is

310
00:23:59.680 --> 00:24:03.119
shot by the police. As his
lifeless body lies on the floor of a

311
00:24:03.160 --> 00:24:07.079
public toilet, his soul floats high
above the neon drenched Tokyo streets, observing

312
00:24:07.119 --> 00:24:11.039
the effect of his death on his
sister and reliving the events in his life

313
00:24:11.039 --> 00:24:17.240
that brought him to this juncture.
First off, I believe you've seen into

314
00:24:17.279 --> 00:24:21.200
the Void? Right? No?
No, okay, I thought you'd said

315
00:24:21.200 --> 00:24:25.079
that you did. No, I
haven't. I'm so excited for this.

316
00:24:26.400 --> 00:24:30.440
Sadly, I've not seen it either. I was waiting for a good release

317
00:24:30.480 --> 00:24:33.480
of this before I went out and
got I think there was an old DVD

318
00:24:33.599 --> 00:24:38.720
of this. I'm just I'm not
trying to be a quality snob, but

319
00:24:40.799 --> 00:24:42.599
lately I kind of have been.
I don't really want to buy a DVD

320
00:24:42.720 --> 00:24:45.880
for something that is likely to get
a Blu Ray I mean, but also,

321
00:24:47.039 --> 00:24:48.559
no, is not somebody who takes
that kind of stuff lightly, like

322
00:24:51.119 --> 00:24:59.759
very planned out things like Climax.
Climax is wild and beautiful and even irreversible

323
00:25:00.279 --> 00:25:03.559
that just got the first semi wide
Blu Ray release. There was one I

324
00:25:03.599 --> 00:25:11.240
think that came from Korea as part
of Nova Media in a very limited slipcase

325
00:25:11.279 --> 00:25:15.119
release something like that. But yeah, it has not gotten a big release.

326
00:25:15.240 --> 00:25:18.440
So I am stoked that this is
getting the big hard box release.

327
00:25:18.559 --> 00:25:23.319
So this has ten ADP Blu Ray
of the one hundred and forty three minute

328
00:25:23.440 --> 00:25:30.079
UK theatrical cut and the full length
one hundred and sixty one minute director's cut,

329
00:25:30.759 --> 00:25:36.240
subtitles for both Enter the Sensorium,
a brand new visual essay on the

330
00:25:36.279 --> 00:25:40.640
film by author and critic Alexandra Heller
Nicholas, who has been doing a lot

331
00:25:40.680 --> 00:25:45.880
of stuff recently, so stoked on
that brand new video interview with typography designer

332
00:25:45.920 --> 00:25:51.559
and long term NOA collaborator Tom can
Eight deleted scenes, archival making of archival,

333
00:25:51.680 --> 00:25:56.079
Vortex featurette, DMT Loop featurette,
and a whole bunch of trailers,

334
00:25:56.160 --> 00:26:00.519
image gallery. All that stuff,
but then limited edition packaging with reversible sleeve

335
00:26:00.599 --> 00:26:07.119
featuring two choices of artwork, illustrated
collector's booklet featuring new writing on the film

336
00:26:07.119 --> 00:26:11.359
by John Towson and Rich Johnson,
and an oral history of the film by

337
00:26:11.400 --> 00:26:17.279
Steven Handley, plus a fold out
double sided poster featuring both of the choices

338
00:26:17.279 --> 00:26:22.680
of artwork on the poster, and
then six double sided postcard sized art cards.

339
00:26:23.440 --> 00:26:27.240
It's crazy, man like so much
in these Yeah, it's amazing.

340
00:26:27.480 --> 00:26:30.920
But I was trying to think about
this because when I saw Into the Void.

341
00:26:32.480 --> 00:26:33.480
You know, we've been talking a
lot to these folks. I know

342
00:26:33.480 --> 00:26:37.440
you talked to Jared as well about
this recently. You know, rights is

343
00:26:37.480 --> 00:26:40.720
a huge issue as to what comes
out, like the ability to actually acquire

344
00:26:40.759 --> 00:26:44.200
some of this stuff. It's expensive, yep. I can't imagine. Noa's

345
00:26:44.240 --> 00:26:48.880
stuff is cheap. No. So
you know, these kind of big blowout

346
00:26:48.039 --> 00:26:51.640
editions kind of make sense for that, right, because you've got to You've

347
00:26:51.640 --> 00:26:56.240
got to recoup some costs exactly.
And the big thing is, I want

348
00:26:56.240 --> 00:26:59.279
to know how much time went into
this, because something like this, with

349
00:26:59.359 --> 00:27:03.240
how much no cares about it,
it had to be in the pipeline for

350
00:27:03.279 --> 00:27:07.680
a while, I would say,
yeah, especially to put out two films

351
00:27:07.680 --> 00:27:11.559
of his at the same time.
Right, I was not hoping that they

352
00:27:11.559 --> 00:27:15.519
were gonna do not stand by me? What's it called? I stand alone?

353
00:27:15.960 --> 00:27:18.759
I stand alone? Have you seen
that? I've not seen it.

354
00:27:18.279 --> 00:27:22.319
I think I have the DVD.
It is buried in my closet. I

355
00:27:22.319 --> 00:27:26.359
I've not watched it yet. But
again, that's it's never that one's never

356
00:27:26.359 --> 00:27:30.720
gotten a Blu ray release from anywhere. I mean, shocker. It's pretty

357
00:27:30.720 --> 00:27:33.839
fucked up, right, and it's
got a pretty famous cover of a guy

358
00:27:33.880 --> 00:27:38.400
holding a gun to his head.
Yeah, but it's it's great. It's

359
00:27:38.400 --> 00:27:42.200
a really, really good early film. My friend John here in the chat

360
00:27:42.240 --> 00:27:45.720
says, Enter the Void has been
on my list for a while. Quentin

361
00:27:45.720 --> 00:27:51.839
Tarantino says it has the best opening
credit sequence ever, which immediately piques my

362
00:27:51.880 --> 00:27:55.599
interest. And then we got a
couple of people saying they need to watch

363
00:27:55.640 --> 00:28:00.000
Irreversible, Dustin saying I've not seen
any of his films. I would suggest,

364
00:28:00.119 --> 00:28:04.519
yesed it it there? What is
the appropriate way to say this?

365
00:28:04.559 --> 00:28:11.440
So Irreversible is talked about as this
incredibly rough, sadistic movie, and I

366
00:28:11.440 --> 00:28:15.880
don't know that I'm just softened to
it. But in all reality, there

367
00:28:15.880 --> 00:28:19.599
are two scenes that are kind of
hard to watch. There's one scene which

368
00:28:19.640 --> 00:28:23.000
is right in the very beginning of
the film, which has some heightened violence,

369
00:28:23.519 --> 00:28:26.920
and then there is an extended sexual
assault scene, but it is not

370
00:28:27.079 --> 00:28:33.480
done in a way to highlight the
sexual assault. It is literally made in

371
00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:37.559
a way to empathize with it and
make you feel the emotional gut punch of

372
00:28:37.559 --> 00:28:41.519
the third act, and Irreversible is
amazing in that sense. Yeah, I

373
00:28:41.559 --> 00:28:48.480
remember I saw that in theaters actually, and I saw it again in theaters

374
00:28:48.480 --> 00:28:52.599
and I questioned my life choices when
I went back to see it. But

375
00:28:52.640 --> 00:28:56.880
the reason I like it is because
the way that they look at how time

376
00:28:56.920 --> 00:29:00.000
destroys everything that's I don't want to
spoil anything, but like that's kind of

377
00:29:00.000 --> 00:29:03.200
that theme that's explored throughout the movie
is the time destroys everything, right,

378
00:29:03.480 --> 00:29:08.920
And by playing with time the way
that he does, and the timing of

379
00:29:08.960 --> 00:29:15.119
when things are intense and terrible and
when things are happy, it just leaves

380
00:29:15.200 --> 00:29:18.319
this like really mixed, like crazy
kind of swirl of emotions. And I

381
00:29:18.319 --> 00:29:21.799
mean he had control of me,
like he did it, you know.

382
00:29:21.880 --> 00:29:26.119
He I think he accomplished what he
set out to do, and that turned

383
00:29:26.160 --> 00:29:30.319
me on to him. So anyways, I have a soft spot for that

384
00:29:30.400 --> 00:29:33.559
movie. I can't imagine watching it
all the time though. It's a tough

385
00:29:33.599 --> 00:29:37.519
watch it is. And one last
thing I will say before we stopped just

386
00:29:37.759 --> 00:29:44.359
worshiping Gas for no way, the
thing that I appreciate about Irreversible is for

387
00:29:44.599 --> 00:29:51.759
me, as not to make this
anything very you know, politically correct or

388
00:29:51.759 --> 00:29:56.279
anything like that, but as a
male, watching an extended, awkward feeling

389
00:29:56.319 --> 00:30:00.640
sexual assault scene like that really makes
you empathize with that case character in a

390
00:30:00.680 --> 00:30:04.720
way that you really can't in a
lot of different situations. Obviously, I'll

391
00:30:04.759 --> 00:30:10.559
never feel what she felt. I'll
never feel what other people who you know

392
00:30:11.200 --> 00:30:14.720
have come out as victims of things
have felt. But it is one of

393
00:30:14.720 --> 00:30:18.880
those situations that really can put you
in that scene and feel it in a

394
00:30:18.920 --> 00:30:22.079
way that you never could have imagined
possible. Yeah, it's true. And

395
00:30:22.119 --> 00:30:26.680
then I wanted to highlight too.
Your friend Zach here says new French extremity

396
00:30:26.680 --> 00:30:29.519
stuff is mostly in DVD. Be
nice to see more of it yet,

397
00:30:29.559 --> 00:30:33.039
Blu Ray, I will highlight if
you have shutter on March first, two

398
00:30:33.119 --> 00:30:38.200
days ago, they just added a
giant wave of new French extremity to Shutter

399
00:30:38.440 --> 00:30:45.680
in high definition. So they have
inside Martyrs High Tension. There is two

400
00:30:45.759 --> 00:30:48.720
or three more, and all of
them just got added on March first.

401
00:30:49.279 --> 00:30:53.599
Unfortunately, the way that Shutter gets
right sometimes that sometimes only lasts a month.

402
00:30:53.720 --> 00:30:57.039
So if you've been wanting to see
them and you have Shutter, make

403
00:30:57.079 --> 00:31:00.240
that a priority. No idea how
long going to be there, but it

404
00:31:00.400 --> 00:31:06.960
is the perfect time to be wanting
to get into French extremity. High Tension

405
00:31:07.039 --> 00:31:10.480
is so good. High Tension,
I think was the first French extreme film

406
00:31:10.519 --> 00:31:12.440
I ever saw, and I fell
in love with the genre before I sign

407
00:31:12.480 --> 00:31:18.920
anything else. I love high tension. Uh wow, we're not even through

408
00:31:19.000 --> 00:31:22.200
Arrow yet. Next one, speaking
of what we just mentioned a little while

409
00:31:22.240 --> 00:31:26.319
ago, candy Man in four K. So Arrow is putting out in the

410
00:31:26.400 --> 00:31:32.240
UK only candy Man in four K. Now, it is important to point

411
00:31:32.279 --> 00:31:37.079
out this is all of the exact
same packaging that they had released when they

412
00:31:37.079 --> 00:31:41.759
put it out on Blu Ray.
None of the posters are different, none

413
00:31:41.799 --> 00:31:45.559
of anything is different other than the
words like four K twenty one to sixty

414
00:31:45.559 --> 00:31:49.240
P that is different. Everything else
exactly the same, and I don't believe.

415
00:31:51.880 --> 00:31:55.440
Just making sure real quick, Yes, there is not any new special

416
00:31:55.440 --> 00:32:00.400
features in here. Unless somebody knows
something I don't. Nothing was added to

417
00:32:00.400 --> 00:32:05.519
this release at all. It is
just a four k UHD disc of their

418
00:32:05.559 --> 00:32:09.559
previous scan with HDR grading and all
that, but no new features. And

419
00:32:09.599 --> 00:32:15.480
they're not even including the Blu Ray. No, okay, they are not.

420
00:32:15.680 --> 00:32:20.440
And one of the things that I
kind of want to highlight on that

421
00:32:20.480 --> 00:32:22.720
I did mention this couple weeks ago. There is a video on YouTube and

422
00:32:23.000 --> 00:32:27.599
I need to share it on my
YouTube channel because it is so important.

423
00:32:28.000 --> 00:32:30.920
A couple of the guys from Aero
did an interview and they highlighted that the

424
00:32:31.000 --> 00:32:36.559
reason they do that where it's only
four K on some of these and also

425
00:32:36.599 --> 00:32:39.039
which titles they're choosing to do four
K, is because some of these releases,

426
00:32:39.079 --> 00:32:45.279
the four K is three times the
cost of a Blu ray release because

427
00:32:45.279 --> 00:32:49.440
of how much extra work goes into
it, on top of the extra time,

428
00:32:49.640 --> 00:32:54.039
the HDR grading, the more involved
scan that goes into it, on

429
00:32:54.079 --> 00:33:00.559
top of that, three times the
cost, which is crazy. Yeah,

430
00:33:00.920 --> 00:33:04.839
it's interesting. I wonder, I
mean, you're definitely in the hundreds of

431
00:33:04.880 --> 00:33:10.200
thousands of dollars at that point all
in potentially, Yeah, at the time

432
00:33:10.240 --> 00:33:15.680
you're pressing the discs and everything,
because I'm trying to remember what they said.

433
00:33:15.680 --> 00:33:21.160
There was a breakdown? Was it? I think it was we did

434
00:33:21.200 --> 00:33:23.240
the breakdown? Now it was the
Death Crocodile. Guys, they did a

435
00:33:23.240 --> 00:33:30.759
breakdown and even the titles that they
do when they did back when they were

436
00:33:30.759 --> 00:33:36.160
with our Bellos they did what's that
really crazy kind of ray pe Japanese cartoon

437
00:33:36.200 --> 00:33:40.519
that they put out, Belladon Have
Sadness That one was over one hundred thousand

438
00:33:40.559 --> 00:33:46.240
dollars for that restoration. Jesus and
I can't imagine that that made any money,

439
00:33:46.440 --> 00:33:50.400
if at all. Really, theatrical
is how they make their money.

440
00:33:50.480 --> 00:33:55.039
Yeah, not on not just strictly
from Blu ray ypt right, let's see

441
00:33:55.079 --> 00:34:00.160
flex is asking are all four K
movies region free? So technical? The

442
00:34:00.279 --> 00:34:06.039
format itself has nothing written in it
for region locking. However, there have

443
00:34:06.200 --> 00:34:10.000
been at this point I believe four
releases worldwide that have been region locked,

444
00:34:10.039 --> 00:34:13.480
and only one of them were in
the US, and it was a shout

445
00:34:13.480 --> 00:34:16.559
Factory disc for I think it's Weathering
with You, and it's kind of a

446
00:34:16.599 --> 00:34:21.320
shady thing. They're not supposed to
be able to do that. The other

447
00:34:21.360 --> 00:34:23.559
three are probably titles you were never
going to import, so don't worry about

448
00:34:23.559 --> 00:34:27.719
it. Basically, anything that you're
going to want to watch unless you're really

449
00:34:27.760 --> 00:34:30.119
into that Shout Factory Weathering with You, it's going to be region free.

450
00:34:30.159 --> 00:34:36.159
Four K is all supposed to be
region free. There is not even language

451
00:34:36.159 --> 00:34:42.320
in the format at all for being
region locked. All right. Another fun

452
00:34:42.360 --> 00:34:45.519
one arrow in the US, only
not in the UK at all. This

453
00:34:45.639 --> 00:34:52.079
is coming to the US. Are
releasing One Armed Boxer from nineteen seventy two,

454
00:34:52.760 --> 00:34:57.320
and this was previously released. I
believe by Eureka, not eighty eight

455
00:34:57.360 --> 00:35:00.519
Films. I always get that mixed
up because eighty eight Films has done most

456
00:35:00.519 --> 00:35:04.639
of the Shaw Brothers things. So
One Arms Boxer is coming. This is

457
00:35:04.639 --> 00:35:08.920
the new artwork, and then the
Aerostore site exclusive. They are releasing this

458
00:35:09.079 --> 00:35:14.679
original poster art which I gotta love. This slip is great, amazing.

459
00:35:15.639 --> 00:35:21.719
So for those that don't know,
this is Yu Chian Long is the best

460
00:35:21.760 --> 00:35:23.559
fighter to come out of his local
martial arts school, but when he crosses

461
00:35:23.599 --> 00:35:29.000
the ruthless leader of a local crime
syndicate, the Big Boss's brutal bevy of

462
00:35:29.079 --> 00:35:32.320
deadly killers make mince meat out of
the school and everyone inside. Now the

463
00:35:32.360 --> 00:35:37.760
only survivor of the massacre and short
of one appendage, you is gifted a

464
00:35:37.920 --> 00:35:42.440
powerful elixir that promises to give him
the strength to take swift revenge on the

465
00:35:42.599 --> 00:35:46.519
army of assassins, each representing the
most lethal forms of fighting from across the

466
00:35:46.599 --> 00:35:52.920
Eastern Hemisphere. So, as far
as I can tell, the stuff that

467
00:35:52.920 --> 00:36:00.199
they have on here is literally just
a copy of the Eureka disc. Don't

468
00:36:00.199 --> 00:36:07.239
think there is anything brand new.
I don't. Yeah, that's probably true

469
00:36:07.800 --> 00:36:12.440
because they typically they would put like
new something something you know, right,

470
00:36:14.920 --> 00:36:17.039
unless it's one of the smaller features. But have you seen many Jimmy Jimmy

471
00:36:17.119 --> 00:36:22.800
U films? M Jimmy Wang you
I've seen a couple a long time ago.

472
00:36:22.880 --> 00:36:28.800
I've not really dove in since this
big resurgence. Lately, I've focused

473
00:36:28.800 --> 00:36:32.079
on other things. Anyways, just
a shout out to he always makes.

474
00:36:32.119 --> 00:36:35.840
His movies are so entertaining. He
has another one with the guy with one

475
00:36:35.920 --> 00:36:39.719
armed one armed swordsman. I believe
yep, he's got one about somebody who's

476
00:36:39.760 --> 00:36:43.880
like a flying guillotine. Anyways,
He's just his movies are wacky and they're

477
00:36:43.920 --> 00:36:47.239
really fun. Uh. Here actually
in the second paragraph, it says,

478
00:36:47.280 --> 00:36:50.880
proving once and for all that you
only need five fingers of death to get

479
00:36:50.920 --> 00:36:54.440
the job done. Wang would later
reprise his role in the infamous sequel Master

480
00:36:54.559 --> 00:36:59.840
of the Flying Guillotine, but it's
the dementedly inventive original where he's arguably at

481
00:36:59.840 --> 00:37:05.079
the height of his powers. And
one thing I wanted to say about this

482
00:37:05.239 --> 00:37:09.000
is that they also have on here
the commentary by Frank Jang from the New

483
00:37:09.079 --> 00:37:14.400
York Asian Film Festival. Frank Jang
is a friend of the Channel and if

484
00:37:14.400 --> 00:37:19.400
you are interested. We had on
our other show, Discovering Cinema. Channel

485
00:37:19.400 --> 00:37:22.519
link is in the description below.
We had Frank Jang on and just talk

486
00:37:22.599 --> 00:37:25.320
to him for almost two hours.
And the dude is one of the most

487
00:37:25.360 --> 00:37:30.320
knowledgeable people you will ever meet on
Hong Kong cinema, on all Asian cinema

488
00:37:30.360 --> 00:37:35.000
really, but this guy still,
he's like in his mid fifties, has

489
00:37:35.039 --> 00:37:38.360
like three full time jobs. He
does commentaries at least once or twice a

490
00:37:38.400 --> 00:37:42.280
month. Dude is a beast.
And if you really want to dive in

491
00:37:42.320 --> 00:37:45.559
and learn, go back and watch
that episode on Discovering Cinema because he is

492
00:37:45.880 --> 00:37:52.920
great. Next from Arrow, this
is a big one and this is coming

493
00:37:52.960 --> 00:37:57.840
in the US and the UK.
We are getting wild things from nineteen ninety

494
00:37:57.840 --> 00:38:04.840
eight in four K Are you a
big erotic thriller fan? Uh No?

495
00:38:05.280 --> 00:38:07.039
I mean, look, I'm gonna
be honest, this is a late night

496
00:38:07.079 --> 00:38:14.159
show. I watched this movie.
I've watched four minutes of this movie fifty

497
00:38:14.239 --> 00:38:20.519
times. When I I don't know, I can't promise you that I've seen

498
00:38:20.559 --> 00:38:22.639
the whole thing all the way through. I don't know for sure that I

499
00:38:22.679 --> 00:38:27.960
know the plot. Well. Speaking
of the plot, let's go into that

500
00:38:28.000 --> 00:38:32.039
real quick, popular and charming student
counselor Sam Lombardo, which, of course

501
00:38:32.079 --> 00:38:37.159
an Eurotic thriller. Your character title
is gonna be. Sam Lombardo is no

502
00:38:37.199 --> 00:38:40.960
stranger to being the focus of female
attention within the moneyed clicks of Florida's Blue

503
00:38:42.000 --> 00:38:45.039
Bay. His fortunes are about to
change dramatically, however, when one of

504
00:38:45.079 --> 00:38:50.719
the wealthiest students at his high school, sultry siren Kelly Van Ryan, accuses

505
00:38:50.840 --> 00:38:53.440
him of rape. The charge looks
sure to stick when another girl from the

506
00:38:53.440 --> 00:38:57.960
other end of the social spectrum,
Susie Taller or I think it's Toller,

507
00:38:58.000 --> 00:39:04.039
actually steps forward with her own allegations. But Detective Duquet smells something fishy and

508
00:39:04.119 --> 00:39:07.840
the truth is as murky and dangerous
as the alligator infested swamps in the hinterlands

509
00:39:07.840 --> 00:39:19.320
of this affluent beach community. Wild
Things is uh, it's wild. First

510
00:39:19.320 --> 00:39:23.280
of all, the cast in this
is incredible. We have Matt Dillon,

511
00:39:23.679 --> 00:39:29.719
we have Denise Richards, we have
Nev Campbell, we have Kevin Bacon and

512
00:39:29.960 --> 00:39:37.880
uh, Kevin Bacon chose some stuff
off in this movie. It's where people

513
00:39:37.920 --> 00:39:42.920
show stuff. Yeah, and it's
a great one. There is a couple

514
00:39:43.000 --> 00:39:50.280
scenes that have been cemented in gift
history across the internet. Wild Things is

515
00:39:50.320 --> 00:39:54.440
great if you are looking to get
into this, absolutely loaded with special features.

516
00:39:54.480 --> 00:39:59.960
But the big thing this is the
limited edition box set that they're released.

517
00:40:00.559 --> 00:40:05.599
And they are also releasing this limited
edition steel book box set just like

518
00:40:05.639 --> 00:40:08.760
they did with Dune. Now this
is dual format Blu ray and four K

519
00:40:09.320 --> 00:40:15.280
hard box slip case all across the
steel book, and then it does have

520
00:40:15.360 --> 00:40:19.079
the book with it and all that, and then they are also releasing just

521
00:40:19.199 --> 00:40:22.159
this steel book by itself. Now, if you notice, the artwork is

522
00:40:22.599 --> 00:40:28.119
very similar to the True Romance artwork. It's the exact same artist. And

523
00:40:28.199 --> 00:40:32.840
personally, I think it looks great. No, no, sorry, I

524
00:40:35.480 --> 00:40:37.400
with all respect to the artist.
I know how hard they work for this.

525
00:40:38.840 --> 00:40:42.400
You know what, Okay, I
haven't seen that. Like I said,

526
00:40:42.400 --> 00:40:44.840
I haven't even seen the whole movie. Maybe it really fits the vibe.

527
00:40:45.320 --> 00:40:47.480
It does, It really does.
But on top of that, one

528
00:40:47.519 --> 00:40:52.440
of the things is I hated the
True Romance steel book when it got announced.

529
00:40:52.760 --> 00:40:55.360
Holding it in the hand, this
artwork looks ten times better, okay,

530
00:40:55.719 --> 00:40:59.280
And I can see how this is
going to look a lot better in

531
00:40:59.280 --> 00:41:04.239
the hand than it does on the
screen. So question for the the people

532
00:41:04.280 --> 00:41:06.880
with no self control that are listening, and maybe a questioned for you too,

533
00:41:06.960 --> 00:41:12.280
right, do you buy both?
Do you buy just the steel book?

534
00:41:12.360 --> 00:41:15.840
Do you buy just the limited packaging? Where do you go for me

535
00:41:15.960 --> 00:41:19.760
on this one? I am choosing
the limited Steel book kind of a best

536
00:41:19.760 --> 00:41:22.840
of both worlds thing. You get
the steel book art, you get this

537
00:41:22.000 --> 00:41:29.000
different slip box that is different than
let's see the first one that the box

538
00:41:29.320 --> 00:41:35.559
is this more like nine This is
more like the thriller focus of the movie

539
00:41:35.639 --> 00:41:39.079
type of slip box. This is
more of the erotic focus the slipbox.

540
00:41:40.480 --> 00:41:45.719
Yeah, this is It's genuinely a
fun movie. But I am going to

541
00:41:45.800 --> 00:41:49.599
highlight one thing from flex. Does
Wild Things deserve this kind of treatment?

542
00:41:49.679 --> 00:41:54.800
Absolutely not it personally, it probably
deserves a four K because, like I've

543
00:41:54.800 --> 00:41:59.519
said on this channel before, I
think most movies deserve a four K.

544
00:41:59.639 --> 00:42:02.840
I think that they should be scanned
in the highest quality possible. They should

545
00:42:02.880 --> 00:42:07.079
probably get good color grading, they
should get something where they get attention done

546
00:42:07.360 --> 00:42:13.079
to preserve it faithfully in the best
way possible. Does it need multiple posters,

547
00:42:13.159 --> 00:42:16.159
art cards, three discs and you
know, hours and hours of new

548
00:42:16.159 --> 00:42:21.599
features. No, probably not,
but it's fun. And honestly, I

549
00:42:21.679 --> 00:42:24.800
am a big fan of nineties erotic
thrillers, and I think that this and

550
00:42:25.039 --> 00:42:31.480
the the Imprint box set for the
after Dark Noir that they're putting out are

551
00:42:31.760 --> 00:42:36.480
kind of signaling a return to that. And then even Trauma just did their

552
00:42:36.519 --> 00:42:39.920
Sexy Box, which is all nineties
kind of erotic thrillers. They're more like

553
00:42:40.000 --> 00:42:45.199
skin imax titles. I was just
looking really quick. I thought this made

554
00:42:45.239 --> 00:42:49.119
a hundred million dollars. I guess
it didn't. It probably made a hundred

555
00:42:49.159 --> 00:42:52.159
million dollars in rentals, but it
did. Okay, yeah, this is

556
00:42:52.199 --> 00:42:57.159
a hot rental, but this was
a big blockbuster title. Yeah exactly,

557
00:42:57.199 --> 00:43:00.800
Yeah, yeah, exactly. I
feel like talking of like rights issues and

558
00:43:00.800 --> 00:43:05.920
stuff like one of the interesting things
I've noticed with Aro even before they got

559
00:43:05.920 --> 00:43:08.000
brought up by the Hut group.
But I'm figuring this is kind of signaling.

560
00:43:08.039 --> 00:43:13.559
This is like they're going into discs
that will go well beyond like the

561
00:43:13.599 --> 00:43:17.320
boutique collector that's into genre films,
Like these titles that they're putting out are

562
00:43:17.360 --> 00:43:21.159
like they have like big appeal,
Like a lot of different folks know about

563
00:43:21.199 --> 00:43:25.280
these movies right certainly falls into that
category. One thing I will say is

564
00:43:25.280 --> 00:43:30.519
that if you have been to a
best Buy that still has any physical media,

565
00:43:30.760 --> 00:43:32.519
ero titles have been showing up in
best Buy. Recently, Dune in

566
00:43:32.599 --> 00:43:37.159
four K has been in best Buy. This is another example of a title

567
00:43:37.239 --> 00:43:39.639
that will be in best Buy in
four K because they will be able to

568
00:43:39.679 --> 00:43:45.360
sell it for thirty two dollars and
make a good twelve bucks on that release

569
00:43:45.119 --> 00:43:51.000
every single time. And people that
are just there looking for a USB cable

570
00:43:51.000 --> 00:43:53.480
that they need today are more likely
to pick up wild things than you think,

571
00:43:53.880 --> 00:43:57.400
because the kind of people that are
shopping at best Buy for a USB

572
00:43:57.559 --> 00:44:02.719
cable were twenty two when this came
out. That's a good point, It's

573
00:44:02.760 --> 00:44:07.920
all right. One thing I wanted
to highlight before I go to the absolute

574
00:44:08.119 --> 00:44:12.760
next title is O. C.
Floyd saying you can see Kevin's Bacon and

575
00:44:12.800 --> 00:44:16.000
four K. That's way too good
of a joke to pass up. I

576
00:44:16.079 --> 00:44:20.920
gotta admit I almost said Kevin Goes
Whole Hog, but I didn't think that

577
00:44:20.960 --> 00:44:25.519
was gonna fit close enough with the
Bacon title, So that was arrow.

578
00:44:27.039 --> 00:44:30.360
And then we got a tease from
Second Site that they are currently in the

579
00:44:30.400 --> 00:44:37.880
works for four k later this year
on Texas Chainsaw Massacre nineteen seventy four.

580
00:44:39.920 --> 00:44:46.760
I don't I've never heard of this
movie before. First off, what do

581
00:44:46.760 --> 00:44:53.920
you think about Second Site? Okay, so we had the most inside track

582
00:44:54.280 --> 00:45:00.039
possible. Ask him directly would he
be on the podcast? And he it

583
00:45:00.199 --> 00:45:02.880
was very polite, but said,
I don't do press. So nobody knows

584
00:45:02.920 --> 00:45:07.719
anything about this guy other than his
name is Chris something, So I like

585
00:45:07.760 --> 00:45:14.400
him already. It's a combined effort. Chris does, like the packaging and

586
00:45:14.480 --> 00:45:19.440
sort of like the reasons everybody loves
Second Site is sort of Chris. And

587
00:45:19.480 --> 00:45:22.519
then Filled from Fractured Visions is the
one that does all the supplemental material,

588
00:45:22.480 --> 00:45:27.519
and I think it's just a one
and a half man shot, right,

589
00:45:28.119 --> 00:45:32.000
And the fact that that's the background
for this company blows my mind, like

590
00:45:32.719 --> 00:45:37.519
how is that possible? I agree? And then on top of that,

591
00:45:37.679 --> 00:45:40.760
they literally have emerged as one of
the best in the game for coming out

592
00:45:40.840 --> 00:45:46.840
with complete packaging for films that honestly, I can't think of anything they've put

593
00:45:46.840 --> 00:45:51.519
out that hasn't deserved the treatment that
they've got. So I don't think that

594
00:45:51.559 --> 00:45:53.760
they've had their wild things, which
is, you know, going above and

595
00:45:53.760 --> 00:45:57.679
beyond on something that probably doesn't need
to go above and beyond like that,

596
00:45:58.519 --> 00:46:01.320
And speaking of that, you're your
friend Zach here says, maybe Aero can

597
00:46:01.360 --> 00:46:05.599
do Basic Instinct four K for the
US. It would pairwell. I would

598
00:46:05.639 --> 00:46:07.840
not be surprised at all if that
is already in the works and probably getting

599
00:46:07.840 --> 00:46:14.000
it out soon. Any Do any
of y'all have the old Basic Instinct DVD

600
00:46:14.119 --> 00:46:17.000
with the ice pick in it?
I remember seeing it. I do not

601
00:46:17.079 --> 00:46:21.239
have that. I still have it
on my shelf somewhere. So yeah.

602
00:46:21.280 --> 00:46:25.239
Second site, Texas chainsawm Asker in
four K coming later this year. First

603
00:46:25.239 --> 00:46:28.920
of all, a lot of people
are going to complain that this does not

604
00:46:29.000 --> 00:46:30.719
need four K, that it looks
just fine in Blu ray. Keep in

605
00:46:30.719 --> 00:46:37.079
mind, the HDR is going to
make this movie look completely different than you've

606
00:46:37.079 --> 00:46:38.960
ever seen it before, and in
a good way, not like it looks

607
00:46:39.000 --> 00:46:44.239
muddy or green, you know,
like the Criterion release of Memories of Murder

608
00:46:44.280 --> 00:46:47.480
or anything like that. That this
is going to be a good four K

609
00:46:47.599 --> 00:46:52.079
release. I guarantee it. The
the the flares from this, the colors

610
00:46:52.079 --> 00:46:57.440
are going to be popping more than
you've ever expected, but it is going

611
00:46:57.480 --> 00:47:00.960
to be great. Obviously, this
film has a lot of releases over the

612
00:47:01.039 --> 00:47:06.000
years, probably too many. I
think the only movie that has maybe been

613
00:47:06.000 --> 00:47:09.360
exploited worse than this is The Evil
Dead and The Evil Dead too. But

614
00:47:12.480 --> 00:47:16.320
I am comfortable saying the second site
release of this is going to be the

615
00:47:16.400 --> 00:47:22.519
definitive release of Texas Chains. I'm
asking. And we'll be talking more about

616
00:47:22.519 --> 00:47:27.079
Second Site in just a second,
but first let's talk about a fun one

617
00:47:27.360 --> 00:47:34.800
cauldron. Cauldron Films, headed by
Jesse from Diabolic, is putting out two

618
00:47:34.920 --> 00:47:38.360
titles that are up for pre order
now on Cauldron dashfilms dot com and on

619
00:47:38.440 --> 00:47:44.320
Diabolic and they are shipping in late
May. First one, I do not

620
00:47:44.440 --> 00:47:45.760
know how to say this. Just
off the top of my head, I

621
00:47:45.800 --> 00:47:52.000
would say Satyr or Sator. I'm
assuming it's Satyr. This is from twenty

622
00:47:52.119 --> 00:47:57.920
nineteen, and both of these are
fairly modern, which is not very Cauldron

623
00:47:58.119 --> 00:48:01.639
like. However, Jesse islam saying
that they will very much feel like Caldron

624
00:48:01.679 --> 00:48:07.559
films. So this is from twenty
nineteen and the tagline is after you have

625
00:48:07.599 --> 00:48:12.599
suffered, he will find you and
it says, Secluded in a desolate forest,

626
00:48:12.679 --> 00:48:15.320
home to little more than the decaying
remnants of the past, a broken

627
00:48:15.360 --> 00:48:21.079
family is further torn apart by a
mysterious death. Adam, guided by a

628
00:48:21.119 --> 00:48:23.320
pervasive sense of dread, hunts for
answers, only to learn that they are

629
00:48:23.360 --> 00:48:29.239
not alone. An insidious presence by
the name of Satyr, setor whatever has

630
00:48:29.280 --> 00:48:34.320
been observing his family, subtly influencing
all of them for years in an attempt

631
00:48:34.400 --> 00:48:38.119
to claim them. Shot in the
Santa Cruz Mountains and drawing from his grandmother's

632
00:48:38.159 --> 00:48:44.000
real life belief in a protective spirit
that spoke to her, Satyr quietly unspools

633
00:48:44.039 --> 00:48:47.199
a story of isolation and dread that
fits firmly into the recent wave of en

634
00:48:47.199 --> 00:48:52.320
Suttling art house horror. Cauldron Films
is honored to release the worldwide blu ray

635
00:48:52.400 --> 00:48:58.599
debut of this film that Pace magazine
named the best horror film of twenty twenty

636
00:48:58.599 --> 00:49:04.199
one. And this has a subs
behind the scenes director's commentary trailer, a

637
00:49:04.239 --> 00:49:07.159
mini poster that is folded, and
then the high quality slipcase. This is

638
00:49:07.320 --> 00:49:15.480
limited to only a thousand copies.
I wonder if that's ucleted as a retail

639
00:49:15.599 --> 00:49:22.800
edition or something. But wasn't this
guys Jordan Graham. Wasn't he the guy

640
00:49:22.840 --> 00:49:27.800
that did there's that movie that came
out about ten years ago called Specter.

641
00:49:28.719 --> 00:49:31.800
Wasn't that him? Let me check? Really best? Interesting? Yeah?

642
00:49:31.880 --> 00:49:36.519
Yeah, same guy. Specter's cool
man, Like, this guy does a

643
00:49:36.559 --> 00:49:39.360
lot with his stories. I'm excited
about let's just for I don't say there,

644
00:49:39.440 --> 00:49:45.360
I guess like, I'm excited about
this. This is how Mitchell says.

645
00:49:45.440 --> 00:49:50.599
It's pronounced like that, so that
works. And then our friend John

646
00:49:50.679 --> 00:49:53.320
says it is a slow burn with
a great finale creepy, but I'm not

647
00:49:53.400 --> 00:50:00.639
sure the juice is worth the squeeze, okay, and then U So that

648
00:50:00.719 --> 00:50:05.519
is the first one again limited to
only a thousand, and let's see.

649
00:50:05.960 --> 00:50:08.559
Is this the one? Yes,
this is the one that I really wanted

650
00:50:08.559 --> 00:50:12.039
to highlight at the end, So
we'll talk about that in a second.

651
00:50:12.239 --> 00:50:16.440
This is Lisa or Eliza, the
Fox Fairy from twenty fifteen, also coming

652
00:50:16.440 --> 00:50:22.559
to Cauldron. The Suitor's only rival
is death. Lisa is a lonely nurse

653
00:50:22.559 --> 00:50:25.880
whose only company is the ghost of
a long dead Japanese pop star. Out

654
00:50:25.880 --> 00:50:30.320
of jealousy, he turns her into
a fox fairy, and now everyone that

655
00:50:30.400 --> 00:50:34.440
is attracted to Lisa dies a horrible
death. In order to finally find true

656
00:50:34.480 --> 00:50:37.079
love, Lisa must overcome the curse
and defeat the jealousy of her suave,

657
00:50:37.239 --> 00:50:44.320
supernatural suitor. Imagine the candy coated
aesthetic of Amili crossed with a darkly comic

658
00:50:44.440 --> 00:50:47.000
mean streak, and you have Lisa
the Fox Fairy. Although it was released

659
00:50:47.039 --> 00:50:52.440
in twenty fifteen and played the US
festival circuit, Lisa has been unavailable on

660
00:50:52.480 --> 00:50:57.840
Blu Ray worldwide until now. And
this has English subs, behind the scenes,

661
00:50:57.920 --> 00:51:01.079
interview, storyboards, music video,
t again with the Cat Ellinger,

662
00:51:01.199 --> 00:51:07.760
an audio essay by Cat Ellinger,
a mini poster folded inside high quality slipcase

663
00:51:07.079 --> 00:51:13.119
featuring artwork by Hot Love. And
then it says limited to fifteen hundred copies

664
00:51:13.119 --> 00:51:16.840
and this is a one time pressing, no standard edition to follow, So

665
00:51:16.920 --> 00:51:21.079
if you really want this one,
this is the one that you would want

666
00:51:21.119 --> 00:51:23.960
to grab and make sure that you're
getting it now. I want to know

667
00:51:24.000 --> 00:51:28.400
what's going on in Hungary. I've
been watching some of Bellatar's films recently.

668
00:51:29.639 --> 00:51:34.320
There's good filmmaking coming out of Hungry, so I'm excited about this one.

669
00:51:34.920 --> 00:51:38.320
Yeah, and the premise really right
up my alley. Sounds super interesting.

670
00:51:40.199 --> 00:51:45.320
But Cauldron really hitting hard, and
they already started teasing a couple more releases

671
00:51:45.360 --> 00:51:50.119
on their website. They've got some
more like seventies jallo stuff like that coming.

672
00:51:50.719 --> 00:51:52.440
It's looking to be a good year
from them, I hope so for

673
00:51:52.559 --> 00:51:55.679
jesse sake, I hope he sells
out like crazy. And then of course

674
00:51:57.079 --> 00:52:00.360
the new label that is going to
be a sub label of that. I

675
00:52:00.360 --> 00:52:06.840
announced on my interview with Jared from
Anto Macabre. Jared and Jesse are coming

676
00:52:06.880 --> 00:52:10.559
together to partner on something called Gold. I believe it's called Gold Eagle Video

677
00:52:10.840 --> 00:52:15.840
or sorry, Neon Eagle Video.
Yeah, I think Neon Eagle Video.

678
00:52:15.039 --> 00:52:22.920
And that is going to be basically
trashy action Asian films, which amazing and

679
00:52:22.239 --> 00:52:27.039
supposedly that's going to fall into the
Cauldron banner, and they've already got multiple

680
00:52:27.039 --> 00:52:30.360
films lined up. I am so
stoked about that one. Yeah, good

681
00:52:30.360 --> 00:52:36.000
for those guys. I mean,
the stuff that that Jared's doing is obviously

682
00:52:36.000 --> 00:52:38.480
world class, So I like the
idea of them pairing up. Yes,

683
00:52:38.719 --> 00:52:44.559
and they both have obviously been around
for quite some time. And really know

684
00:52:44.639 --> 00:52:52.079
what they're doing. Let me see
here. I think the next one is

685
00:52:52.119 --> 00:52:55.599
the next Second Site. Yes,
so we are getting on April nineteenth in

686
00:52:55.679 --> 00:53:01.199
four K from Second Site The Witch
from twenty fifteen, and this limited edition

687
00:53:01.280 --> 00:53:07.599
release looks pretty freaking great. I
love this artwork very much fits the tone

688
00:53:07.599 --> 00:53:09.400
of the film. Pretty much everybody
has seen The Witch by now, so

689
00:53:09.400 --> 00:53:15.400
I'm not gonna go through the synopsis
here. But the really cool thing is

690
00:53:15.639 --> 00:53:21.719
the overwhelming abundance of new special features
here for so four K with Dolby Vision

691
00:53:21.800 --> 00:53:27.000
HDR, an archival audio commentary by
the director Robert Eggers, new audio commentary

692
00:53:27.000 --> 00:53:31.239
by film writer and broadcaster Anna Bogutskaya, A Puritan Nightmare, a new interview

693
00:53:31.280 --> 00:53:36.320
with Robert Eggers, a new interview
with Anya Taylor Joy, a new interview

694
00:53:36.320 --> 00:53:39.280
with Ralph Innocon, a new interview
with Kate Dickey, a new interview with

695
00:53:39.320 --> 00:53:45.239
actor Harvey Scrimshaw, and then features
interviews with Robert Eggers and cast in A

696
00:53:45.280 --> 00:53:49.400
primal folk tale is what they called
it. And then there's a BFI London

697
00:53:49.480 --> 00:53:52.559
Film Festival Q and A with pretty
much everybody involved, and then a short

698
00:53:52.599 --> 00:53:57.920
film called Brothers by Robert Eggers.
This is just awesome. But the big

699
00:53:57.960 --> 00:54:00.360
thing that really stuck out to me
because I love my second site releases for

700
00:54:00.400 --> 00:54:07.599
these one hundred and fifty page hardback
book with new essays by Emerson Baker,

701
00:54:07.079 --> 00:54:13.880
Daniel Byrd, Anton Battel, Charles
Burmesco, Lillian Crawford, shy Ley Rowan

702
00:54:13.960 --> 00:54:19.000
Legg, and Anya Stanley, plus
Still's costume and production design gallery with six

703
00:54:19.079 --> 00:54:24.159
collectors art cards. Talk about definitive
editions like yeah, feel it every time,

704
00:54:25.360 --> 00:54:30.480
and let me see I think there
is a picture of the expanded Yes,

705
00:54:30.559 --> 00:54:31.960
here we go. So here are
the art cards that are coming with

706
00:54:32.000 --> 00:54:38.079
it, and then the hard hardback
book and the box and then the digipack.

707
00:54:38.639 --> 00:54:44.360
This is just incredible. Yeah,
I uh, what do you think

708
00:54:44.360 --> 00:54:51.119
about The Witch? Never heard of
it? No? Isn't this an a

709
00:54:51.239 --> 00:54:54.239
twenty four movie or off it is? Yes, I didn't know that.

710
00:54:54.280 --> 00:55:00.880
They Their releases are usually so good
in and of themselves. I don't know.

711
00:55:00.880 --> 00:55:04.159
I guess the release of the Witch
was pretty basic though, right it

712
00:55:04.320 --> 00:55:07.719
was. They did put out the
four K in the US, but it's

713
00:55:07.280 --> 00:55:12.719
there's not a ton on there.
Yeah, I haven't seen anything by Robert

714
00:55:12.719 --> 00:55:16.840
Eggers. I hope I can still
get still beyond the channel. I like

715
00:55:16.960 --> 00:55:22.239
live in the like fifties through nineties, kind of like it's really rare that

716
00:55:22.280 --> 00:55:24.519
I see new stuff. I'm working
on it. I'm working on that part

717
00:55:24.519 --> 00:55:28.599
of me. I'm trying to improve
myself. For you, Ryan Good,

718
00:55:28.679 --> 00:55:30.760
this one would fit your taste very
well. I think I know I'd love

719
00:55:30.800 --> 00:55:37.519
it. I need to see it. And then we are getting speaking of

720
00:55:37.639 --> 00:55:42.400
coming from the fifties to nineties.
Keino Lower is putting out Times Square from

721
00:55:42.480 --> 00:55:46.800
nineteen eighty one with a little known
actor named Tim Curry. This one gets

722
00:55:46.840 --> 00:55:52.719
a new four K restoration from the
OCN, a new commentary by Kat Ellinger

723
00:55:52.840 --> 00:55:57.320
on a Keno release, and then
audio commentary with the director and star Robin

724
00:55:57.480 --> 00:56:02.280
Johnson, and the trailer getting a
gassy slipcase and everything. This one says,

725
00:56:02.400 --> 00:56:07.639
rich girl Pammy is the sheltered daughter
of a prominent politician. Wild child

726
00:56:07.719 --> 00:56:12.519
Nicky is a tough runaway. Together, the two teams escape from a psychiatric

727
00:56:12.559 --> 00:56:16.519
hospital and, with the help of
radio DJ Johnny LaGuardia played by Tim Curry

728
00:56:16.519 --> 00:56:21.639
playing a radio DJ, become punk
rock heroes on the streets of New York

729
00:56:21.679 --> 00:56:24.159
City. But just as their outrageous
new life begins to come together, they

730
00:56:24.159 --> 00:56:29.199
find that society wants to tear them
apart. Can a sisterhood that runs so

731
00:56:29.440 --> 00:56:34.159
deep survive the cold heart of the
city. This one genuinely looks pretty fun

732
00:56:34.159 --> 00:56:38.159
to me. I've never seen this. Yeah, I saw it on VHS

733
00:56:38.239 --> 00:56:45.880
actually many many moons ago. I
think I'm trying to remember if this is

734
00:56:45.920 --> 00:56:50.159
when they like dance on a building
at one point. I mean, that's

735
00:56:50.199 --> 00:56:52.679
such a vague thing to remember.
I just have these like random memories of

736
00:56:52.719 --> 00:56:58.639
this movie. He was super fun. Yeah, it looks good to me.

737
00:56:58.719 --> 00:57:00.960
Not to mention it's Tim Curry playing
DJ. I kind of want to

738
00:57:00.000 --> 00:57:06.800
see that, right. Speaking of
Keno, their Sunday or I think this

739
00:57:06.880 --> 00:57:10.400
was announced on Saturday this last week. They're putting out bedtime for Bonzo from

740
00:57:10.519 --> 00:57:15.079
nineteen fifty one, and the big
name here is this stars Ronald Reagan,

741
00:57:15.239 --> 00:57:22.199
little known gentlemen, look at that
crazy monkey too, Reagan or the Bonzo

742
00:57:22.639 --> 00:57:31.199
maybe, But let's spend some time
talking about the next Keno announcement in four

743
00:57:31.280 --> 00:57:36.320
K this year. I believe,
well, they haven't specified, but I'm

744
00:57:36.440 --> 00:57:39.480
fairly certain this is gonna come this
year we are getting nineteen fifty five's Night

745
00:57:39.960 --> 00:57:47.880
of the Hunter. Where's the clapping, like Hiker, if there's you know

746
00:57:47.960 --> 00:57:51.519
this whole thing about like not every
film deserves a four K or whatever,

747
00:57:51.840 --> 00:57:54.639
right. I just as soon as
I saw this release, I just started

748
00:57:54.679 --> 00:57:58.719
imagining some of the shadows scenes in
this movie and what they're gonna look like,

749
00:57:58.760 --> 00:58:02.440
And I got like goosebumps. So
why don't you let everybody know your

750
00:58:02.440 --> 00:58:07.000
feelings on Night of the Hunter?
Well, I get a lot. It's

751
00:58:07.719 --> 00:58:13.519
I saw it for the first time
a year or two ago, and if

752
00:58:13.559 --> 00:58:17.800
you haven't seen it, like change
that. Like the movie is unbelievable and

753
00:58:19.199 --> 00:58:22.559
basically, if you can imagine a
cinematic kind of universe, they create a

754
00:58:22.599 --> 00:58:29.280
world they create where they use camera
angles and shadows to basically make things look

755
00:58:29.559 --> 00:58:32.599
not only larger than life, but
like they really play with perspective in very

756
00:58:32.639 --> 00:58:37.440
innovative ways, like something I really
haven't seen before. Like there's a scene

757
00:58:37.480 --> 00:58:44.440
in particular where it's about this guy
who's chasing these kids and he's a very

758
00:58:44.440 --> 00:58:47.360
evil man. And there's this one
scene where that he's in a basement and

759
00:58:47.360 --> 00:58:51.880
he's chasing them up the stairs at
the basement and the way that they shoot

760
00:58:51.920 --> 00:58:53.719
the scene. I mean, I
can't imagine their cgi. This movie was

761
00:58:53.719 --> 00:58:59.039
made in like seventeen hundreds, but
the way that they fulfillmed it, it's

762
00:58:59.280 --> 00:59:04.800
all You see his shadow and it
looks like he's growing as he reaches up

763
00:59:04.840 --> 00:59:10.880
the stairs for them, and it's
like this unbelievable creepy horror vibes from a

764
00:59:10.920 --> 00:59:17.159
movie that starts off extremely sanitary and
fifties kind of safe, and it's just,

765
00:59:17.440 --> 00:59:21.679
Oh, we could spend another two
hours just talking about this movie and

766
00:59:21.719 --> 00:59:25.079
dissecting it. I think it plays
extremely well as like an art house film.

767
00:59:25.280 --> 00:59:29.199
I think it plays extremely well as
like a genre film. It just

768
00:59:29.280 --> 00:59:34.519
I think it covers the spectrum so
well. It's wonderful. This is a

769
00:59:35.119 --> 00:59:37.800
cornerstone film for Criterion. This is
one that they have hung their hat on

770
00:59:37.840 --> 00:59:44.639
for quite some time. This has, first off, some incredible, incredible

771
00:59:44.800 --> 00:59:49.000
acting in it. We have Robert
Mitcham Shelley Winters both acting their ass off,

772
00:59:49.519 --> 00:59:55.440
but really Charles Lawton is the main
hero of this film. And there's

773
00:59:55.480 --> 00:59:59.119
so much that can be said about
this that I can't just gush for the

774
00:59:59.159 --> 01:00:01.440
next half hour, or we will
be here till two o'clock in the morning.

775
01:00:01.480 --> 01:00:07.280
But Night of the Hunter is a
psychological horror film rooted in religion,

776
01:00:07.599 --> 01:00:15.079
and it is it is beyond harrowing
when you watch this for the first time

777
01:00:15.239 --> 01:00:20.360
to see to see yourself being able
to understand what these people are fighting for

778
01:00:20.440 --> 01:00:23.519
and trying to live for, and
by the end of it, it feels

779
01:00:23.559 --> 01:00:30.039
like you have been being chased.
It's odd because it's shot in a way

780
01:00:30.079 --> 01:00:32.679
that, to me like it very
much has the nineteen fifty five feeling of

781
01:00:32.840 --> 01:00:38.760
possibly being kind of shot like a
play. Basically, it's like a stage

782
01:00:38.760 --> 01:00:42.960
playing a lot of scenes, but
it is done in such a way that

783
01:00:43.039 --> 01:00:50.199
it enhances every single aspect and that's
so difficult to convey vocally without just seeing

784
01:00:50.199 --> 01:00:58.400
it, because it is a work
of art through and through. Jeff is

785
01:00:58.440 --> 01:01:05.519
asking, is that Mitcham's best perform
runs. Maybe that would be tough.

786
01:01:05.599 --> 01:01:09.400
He's done quite a lot of really
good things, and yeah, Zach says,

787
01:01:09.400 --> 01:01:12.840
the underwater scene is still one of
the greatest looking shots in film.

788
01:01:12.960 --> 01:01:15.280
It is. It is such a
creepy shot too, It is so well

789
01:01:15.320 --> 01:01:21.320
done. It's amazing. Yeah,
I'm trying to think. I think he

790
01:01:21.519 --> 01:01:25.960
really like people really like his performance
in Cape fear Right. Yeah, that

791
01:01:27.079 --> 01:01:30.159
might be up there anyways. I
don't know. I guess we don't have

792
01:01:30.199 --> 01:01:34.320
to, but I think it's certainly
top top three for him. I have

793
01:01:34.360 --> 01:01:37.400
to imagine. I think he plays
doesn't he play Marlow in The Big Sleep?

794
01:01:38.480 --> 01:01:42.239
I believe, so it has to
be up there anyways. Whatever,

795
01:01:42.280 --> 01:01:45.880
But this is a good one.
There's a lot that people don't talk about

796
01:01:45.880 --> 01:01:47.880
with him too, that because he
just did a lot of films back then.

797
01:01:49.440 --> 01:01:53.000
There's one that he played. I
think he was a senator for Alabama,

798
01:01:53.599 --> 01:01:57.719
and in fact, I think Betty
White even was in that, playing

799
01:01:57.800 --> 01:02:00.519
the Senator of Kansas or something like
that, in a very small role.

800
01:02:00.840 --> 01:02:07.599
But he is this off the cuff
communist, hating senator that he's great for

801
01:02:07.679 --> 01:02:12.800
that role because he's so there is
this this powerful feeling of him just standing

802
01:02:13.440 --> 01:02:19.840
on film. He is intimidating,
just inherently being Robert Mitcham. Yeah,

803
01:02:20.079 --> 01:02:23.440
exactly, all right. So the
last thing to point out here is obviously

804
01:02:24.440 --> 01:02:31.719
Keino is killing four K lately.
They are taking so many titles from Criterion,

805
01:02:32.440 --> 01:02:37.159
not necessarily taking them from Criterion,
because they are only putting out a

806
01:02:37.199 --> 01:02:39.159
lot of these on four K,
which means they don't have the rights to

807
01:02:39.159 --> 01:02:44.880
the Blue. They are only releasing
it off four K. They are format

808
01:02:44.920 --> 01:02:46.599
locked. I guess you could say
into what they can release there. But

809
01:02:47.159 --> 01:02:52.719
a lot of these are MGM titles, and I believe this is their last

810
01:02:52.719 --> 01:02:57.199
MGM from the fifties at least that
they are announcing in four K. So

811
01:02:58.079 --> 01:03:01.360
they've taken a handful from Criterion,
and they've taken a lot from Screen Factory.

812
01:03:01.719 --> 01:03:06.559
Kino is just stepping up their game
and putting their money on the table

813
01:03:07.119 --> 01:03:10.519
and killing it. Yeah. Yeah, credit to where they're I mean,

814
01:03:10.760 --> 01:03:14.639
they really feels like it came out
of nowhere too, because for so long

815
01:03:14.679 --> 01:03:19.800
they had quantity over quality. But
that's not the case anymore. And the

816
01:03:19.880 --> 01:03:22.480
crazy thing is now they have both. They never step down the quantity.

817
01:03:22.519 --> 01:03:28.800
They are announcing things five and six
times a week. It is crazy true.

818
01:03:30.519 --> 01:03:35.000
Okay, let's get into Scream Factory
since I just brought them up.

819
01:03:35.760 --> 01:03:40.920
Speaking of four K, Scream Factory, on May twenty fourth is releasing Life

820
01:03:40.920 --> 01:03:45.840
Force from a little known actor named
Toby Hooper. For those that don't know,

821
01:03:46.000 --> 01:03:52.119
A Mission to investigate Haley's comment discovers
an even stranger phenomenon an alien spacecraft.

822
01:03:52.519 --> 01:03:57.519
Following a deadly confrontation, the aliens
arrive on Earth, where their seductive

823
01:03:57.599 --> 01:04:03.000
leader begins a terrifying campaign to drain
the life force of everyone she encounters.

824
01:04:03.480 --> 01:04:08.639
Obviously there is a focus on the
word seductive there. Her victims in turn

825
01:04:08.880 --> 01:04:12.639
continue the cycle, and soon the
entire planet is in mortal danger. And

826
01:04:12.679 --> 01:04:15.599
when the mission soul survivor played by
Steve Railsback, sets out to stop her,

827
01:04:15.679 --> 01:04:19.079
he comes face to face with the
most beautiful and most horrifying being he's

828
01:04:19.119 --> 01:04:24.400
ever known. Will he be able
to destroy the vampires or will he become

829
01:04:24.480 --> 01:04:29.039
yet another victim of her fatal charm? And then the big thing that people

830
01:04:29.039 --> 01:04:32.199
were asking about on here. Please
note about the international cut. Cannon cut

831
01:04:32.239 --> 01:04:36.400
the original camera negative to match the
theatrical version of the film. Any trims

832
01:04:36.440 --> 01:04:41.599
from the original camera negative were not
saved. As a result, the international

833
01:04:41.599 --> 01:04:45.360
cut only exists as an interpositive film
element. We felt cutting those scenes into

834
01:04:45.400 --> 01:04:49.800
the original camera negative for a UHD
release would be jarring because of the increase

835
01:04:49.840 --> 01:04:55.039
in resolution of twenty one to sixty
p. So this is an example of

836
01:04:55.239 --> 01:05:00.440
I really wish that they didn't make
this choice for us. I wish they

837
01:05:00.440 --> 01:05:05.599
had this as an option on the
disc. The the international cut will be

838
01:05:05.760 --> 01:05:11.000
included, but only on Blu Ray, So that Blu Ray that they're including,

839
01:05:11.079 --> 01:05:13.840
it's literally just gonna be the same
disc from the Steel Book they put

840
01:05:13.880 --> 01:05:16.320
out a couple of years ago.
But either way, this is one that's

841
01:05:16.320 --> 01:05:20.079
going to look great in four K. Pretty much guaranteed. This is going

842
01:05:20.159 --> 01:05:24.199
to be a very interesting movie to
see how they do with this, because

843
01:05:24.559 --> 01:05:27.920
this is the first four K release
of this film in the world, So

844
01:05:28.440 --> 01:05:30.679
this is all shout factory. This
is not a re release or anything like

845
01:05:30.719 --> 01:05:35.960
that. Are we like one hundred
percent sure that Poltergeist is a bigger job

846
01:05:36.000 --> 01:05:40.519
than Texas Chainsawn Massacre? If they're
going to call out from the director of

847
01:05:40.519 --> 01:05:44.280
Poltergeists over to TCM, is that, like, I don't know why they

848
01:05:44.320 --> 01:05:48.039
chose that. Like I alluded to
earlier, it is possible that they have

849
01:05:48.119 --> 01:05:51.639
the rights to Poultergeist and could be
releasing that in four K. Oh yeah,

850
01:05:51.760 --> 01:05:55.719
yeah, yeah, good call.
I'm not going to say that they

851
01:05:55.800 --> 01:05:59.519
do, but that I would not
be surprised at all with the titles they've

852
01:05:59.519 --> 01:06:03.519
been able to get yet that would
it would be a stoner. But yeah,

853
01:06:03.559 --> 01:06:06.039
they're gonna do a Hooper box set. That's going to be their big

854
01:06:06.079 --> 01:06:12.079
box set this year. You heard
it here on the show first. Okay,

855
01:06:12.159 --> 01:06:13.679
thanks for being here, Chris,
have a good night. No.

856
01:06:15.159 --> 01:06:18.480
Uh so, yeah, Life Force
is great. When I said that there

857
01:06:18.559 --> 01:06:21.599
is a big focus on the word
seductive, there's essentially a character in this

858
01:06:21.599 --> 01:06:26.719
who's nude for pretty much the entire
movie. Life Force is a lot of

859
01:06:26.760 --> 01:06:32.800
fun and it's it's decent. It's
not peak Hooper obviously, but it's good.

860
01:06:34.039 --> 01:06:40.880
It's no Eating Alive, Oh God, I hate eating That movie is

861
01:06:40.960 --> 01:06:46.719
so bad. Uh. But when
we talk about movies that I genuinely love

862
01:06:46.840 --> 01:06:54.000
and got excited for, we are
getting a Blu Ray release finally of The

863
01:06:54.039 --> 01:06:58.840
Ghost and the Darkness starring Michael Douglas
and Val Kilmer. I love this god

864
01:06:58.880 --> 01:07:01.320
forsaken movie and so many people hate
it. I don't get why. But

865
01:07:01.440 --> 01:07:04.480
just to go into this, Michael
Douglas and Val Kilmer bring to life the

866
01:07:04.519 --> 01:07:10.519
heart pounding story based on true events
in remote East Africa in eighteen ninety six,

867
01:07:10.920 --> 01:07:15.320
when two murderous lions on a man
eating rampage forced workers to stop construction

868
01:07:15.400 --> 01:07:19.960
on a railway. Big Game hunter
Charles Remington and engineer Lieutenant Colonel John Henry

869
01:07:19.960 --> 01:07:25.079
Patterson, such manly names in this
movie, set out to stop the deadly

870
01:07:25.079 --> 01:07:29.960
predators. However, the lines between
hunter and prey soon become blurred as the

871
01:07:29.960 --> 01:07:33.280
men enter a dark and unfamiliar wilderness, where the thrill of the hunt quickly

872
01:07:33.320 --> 01:07:38.880
becomes the most dangerous game of their
lives. Have you seen The Ghost in

873
01:07:38.880 --> 01:07:42.079
the Darkness? Yeah? I was
just gonna say, like I this is

874
01:07:42.079 --> 01:07:45.719
one of those ones I think I
saw with commercials on like some edited version

875
01:07:45.760 --> 01:07:48.360
on TV or something. As you're
going through the description, I have like

876
01:07:48.400 --> 01:07:50.960
certain memoric image just kind of flashing
in my mind from the movie. But

877
01:07:51.039 --> 01:07:56.639
this is like an old memory.
Yeah. And this played heavily on like

878
01:07:56.719 --> 01:08:01.320
cable and stuff like that. Yeah. Yeah, have you I assume you've

879
01:08:01.320 --> 01:08:04.480
seen it by the way you're gushing
about it. Yes, this is one.

880
01:08:04.559 --> 01:08:08.519
I think my dad loved this movie. This is one that I watched

881
01:08:08.559 --> 01:08:11.079
a lot, and then because of
the year that it was. It was

882
01:08:11.119 --> 01:08:14.480
made in ninety six. This is
right around when I like I first saw

883
01:08:14.559 --> 01:08:17.319
Halloween, when I think it was
eight, So ninety four ninety five is

884
01:08:17.399 --> 01:08:21.039
somewhere around there, and then right
after that it was let's show you pretty

885
01:08:21.079 --> 01:08:24.600
much everything, because now that you've
watched Halloween you can see anything, of

886
01:08:24.640 --> 01:08:28.720
course. So yeah, I watched
Ghost in the Darkness a lot growing up.

887
01:08:29.039 --> 01:08:30.800
But this one's kind of a big
deal because this has never been released

888
01:08:30.840 --> 01:08:38.479
on Blue anywhere, and this is
a good Paramount release that I also would

889
01:08:38.520 --> 01:08:41.840
not be surprised if this was announced
by Imprint here soon, since they've had

890
01:08:41.880 --> 01:08:45.800
such a close relationship with Paramount.
Yeah, that's a good point, does

891
01:08:45.880 --> 01:08:50.000
it say? I'm like, okay, don I was hoping it said from

892
01:08:50.000 --> 01:08:56.159
the director of Nightmare and Elm Street
five, just going along with my theory

893
01:08:56.199 --> 01:09:00.359
of what good this is the guy
that did night right Elm Street five hoping,

894
01:09:00.399 --> 01:09:03.279
just going along with the theory that
it means like indicative of future releases,

895
01:09:03.279 --> 01:09:08.479
is right, But because people have
been pushing for Scream to release that

896
01:09:08.560 --> 01:09:12.840
nosebox sets forever now, yep,
and I we'll see. I don't think

897
01:09:12.840 --> 01:09:15.359
that'll happen, actually, but I
don't think so too, honest. Yep.

898
01:09:15.680 --> 01:09:19.199
So they're doing the Ghost in the
Darkness and then I'm actually kind of

899
01:09:19.239 --> 01:09:24.239
excited because I love this movie again
nineteen ninety six it was a perfect year

900
01:09:24.239 --> 01:09:29.439
for me. And four K we
are getting the craft now again. Everybody

901
01:09:29.439 --> 01:09:30.960
knows what this is, especially because
Scream just put this out a couple of

902
01:09:31.039 --> 01:09:35.680
years ago. There is nothing new
on this disc. It is just a

903
01:09:35.720 --> 01:09:41.359
four K version of their previous release. Now. The big thing here,

904
01:09:41.439 --> 01:09:48.039
though, is that they are highlighting
new four K restoration by Sony. Sony

905
01:09:48.399 --> 01:09:57.279
does incredible work on their four K
restorations. Sony is probably, at least

906
01:09:57.279 --> 01:10:00.399
for me, probably number one studio
for storing their films in four K.

907
01:10:01.000 --> 01:10:04.479
And I have a feeling that this
is going to look just amazing. And

908
01:10:04.840 --> 01:10:09.039
this is also the first time that
Sony, as far as I'm aware,

909
01:10:09.239 --> 01:10:13.960
has licensed out a four K release
of one of their films to a boutique.

910
01:10:15.399 --> 01:10:20.119
Interesting, Okay, could be a
good sign. Could be a real

911
01:10:20.159 --> 01:10:26.000
good sign. Yeah. I mean, these major studios, the volts are

912
01:10:26.079 --> 01:10:29.239
just so deep, like you know, they should like start digging around in

913
01:10:29.279 --> 01:10:31.600
there. That'd be great. Yeah, And not to mention, why not

914
01:10:31.680 --> 01:10:34.520
make more money than you're making now? That seems to be what they're always

915
01:10:34.520 --> 01:10:44.119
about, right, Okay? And
then four K of Escape from New York.

916
01:10:44.720 --> 01:10:48.439
Wow, this is a big one
obviously, and a lot of people

917
01:10:48.439 --> 01:10:54.000
we knew this was coming because they
are using the Studio Canal four K restoration

918
01:10:54.119 --> 01:10:57.560
that they did, which means we
will now have three out of the four

919
01:10:57.640 --> 01:11:01.239
that Studio Canal did, and base
on that, I can basically one hundred

920
01:11:01.279 --> 01:11:04.039
percent guarantee that before the year's over, we're gonna have the Fog in four

921
01:11:04.159 --> 01:11:09.800
K. I would not be surprised
to see that be like an August or

922
01:11:09.840 --> 01:11:14.760
September release. I'm sure they have
hopefully something decent sized for October, but

923
01:11:14.960 --> 01:11:17.560
this would be the Fog would be
a good primer. Oh, last year

924
01:11:17.600 --> 01:11:19.439
was the Michael myerstuff. Never mind, I was like, they didn't do

925
01:11:19.439 --> 01:11:21.760
a box that last year, but
they had their four K ye yet,

926
01:11:21.880 --> 01:11:26.039
right, And you know, they've
sort of hinted that they might be doing

927
01:11:26.039 --> 01:11:29.720
the rest of the Halloween in four
K, but I honestly, I still

928
01:11:29.720 --> 01:11:32.399
think that's kind of a pipe dream
with everybody that they would have to negotiate

929
01:11:32.439 --> 01:11:38.640
with. But yeah, this is
a big one obviously. Carpenter is a

930
01:11:38.680 --> 01:11:43.119
god amongst men, and pretty much
everybody that has seen Escape from New York

931
01:11:43.279 --> 01:11:46.359
Love Escapes from New York. So
this one is fun. Came out in

932
01:11:46.399 --> 01:11:49.720
nineteen eighty one, before the Thing, before a lot of you know,

933
01:11:49.720 --> 01:11:55.720
it was Pete Carpenter era. Basically, have you seen Escape from La as

934
01:11:55.760 --> 01:12:00.399
well? I yes, I've seen
Escape from La I've also I've got the

935
01:12:00.399 --> 01:12:04.319
four K coming. I'm curious to
see how good it looks. I don't

936
01:12:04.319 --> 01:12:09.560
think it's as bad as everybody makes
it out to be. Yeah, it's

937
01:12:09.600 --> 01:12:13.399
it's fun. I mean, he's
the best basketball player in the world and

938
01:12:13.479 --> 01:12:18.159
he can serve the city. Like, what's not the that's true. We

939
01:12:18.239 --> 01:12:20.680
got a question, Mitchell says,
this brings up the question, is that

940
01:12:20.760 --> 01:12:25.359
the same UHD master for the digital
and has anyone seen a difference between the

941
01:12:25.560 --> 01:12:29.840
between the two physical and digital?
Well, first off, compression on a

942
01:12:29.880 --> 01:12:33.720
physical disc will always be better than
digital. You're gonna have artifacting on digital

943
01:12:34.560 --> 01:12:41.239
that will always look inferior to what
you can see on physical and even there

944
01:12:41.239 --> 01:12:45.960
are some blu ray physical that looks
better than four K digital because of that,

945
01:12:45.520 --> 01:12:48.479
so it is important to find the
best that you can if that's what

946
01:12:48.520 --> 01:12:54.439
you're into. But I will say, having watched the Studio Canal four K,

947
01:12:54.520 --> 01:12:58.319
have Escape from New York is that
it's really good. I think that

948
01:12:58.399 --> 01:13:02.239
it's a fairly good four K scan. It's got pretty good HDR. The

949
01:13:02.479 --> 01:13:06.079
all of the blacks look rather deep
in that movie. It's a it's a

950
01:13:06.159 --> 01:13:11.359
very dark film obviously for what they're
filming, and I think it'll look great.

951
01:13:12.079 --> 01:13:15.840
That being said, I also hope
that they improve on the Studio Canal

952
01:13:16.039 --> 01:13:24.680
with their compression because the four K
of They Live and what was the other

953
01:13:24.720 --> 01:13:30.840
one they put out, I'm blanking
right now, Prince of Darkness. Both

954
01:13:30.880 --> 01:13:34.840
of them came out on four K
through screen Factory after they did on Studio

955
01:13:34.880 --> 01:13:40.680
Canal, and they each technically look
slightly better from screen Factory, So I'm

956
01:13:40.960 --> 01:13:46.760
hoping that that continues with this.
It's not a massive improvement, but slightly.

957
01:13:47.079 --> 01:13:49.319
I just love that we live in
a world where carpent is getting this

958
01:13:49.359 --> 01:13:55.319
kind of cheating and you have choices
like you can choose which country to buy

959
01:13:55.640 --> 01:14:00.560
four K Escape from New York.
I just hope that it can continues to

960
01:14:00.640 --> 01:14:04.760
things like In the Mouth of Madness, because he's got underrated titles that go

961
01:14:04.880 --> 01:14:09.800
above and beyond what some of the
best features from other directors that are getting

962
01:14:09.800 --> 01:14:13.359
four K releases. In the Mouth
of Madness is such an incredible movie.

963
01:14:14.439 --> 01:14:16.560
I feel like his titles must sell
well though. I bet it will happen.

964
01:14:17.279 --> 01:14:21.279
They do, I mean shout put
out his Elvis movie. It's they

965
01:14:21.319 --> 01:14:29.000
got to do well. Yeah.
And then, speaking of four K re

966
01:14:29.000 --> 01:14:32.399
releases, screen Factory, this is
our third option of the night. They

967
01:14:32.439 --> 01:14:35.960
are putting out Candy Man in four
K in the US. Now, the

968
01:14:36.000 --> 01:14:42.680
big thing here is they are using
what Aero Video did to this movie.

969
01:14:43.600 --> 01:14:47.840
They are using the Aero Video four
K scan, So basically they are probably

970
01:14:47.880 --> 01:14:53.560
going to be identical scans. I
don't think that there's gonna be much done

971
01:14:53.960 --> 01:14:57.399
to this in terms of better compression
or anything like that. However, this

972
01:14:57.520 --> 01:15:02.479
does have a new interview with actress
Vanessa Williams, so there is if you're

973
01:15:02.520 --> 01:15:05.840
a if you're somebody that really wants
all of the features that you can get,

974
01:15:06.119 --> 01:15:10.800
this does have a reason to have
you upgrade to this one. What

975
01:15:10.840 --> 01:15:16.880
does that mean for new four KUHD
presentation in Adobe Vision. I wonder HGO

976
01:15:16.960 --> 01:15:21.399
ten compatible on both cuts of the
film. I wonder why they're claiming that

977
01:15:21.560 --> 01:15:27.479
is new. I wonder if that
means new over their old release. Uh

978
01:15:28.600 --> 01:15:31.479
yes, and well, and they
can also make that claim if it's new

979
01:15:31.680 --> 01:15:35.840
to the region. Yeah, that's
just because it's coming out in the US

980
01:15:35.880 --> 01:15:40.920
and has not been available before it
is new. Yeah, that's exactly the

981
01:15:40.920 --> 01:15:44.319
probably what it is yet. And
uh, before I go on and we

982
01:15:44.920 --> 01:15:46.880
leave Carpenter of the Dust, I
will say Mitchell, Big Trouble in Little

983
01:15:46.960 --> 01:15:51.920
China better be the next Carpenter to
get a four K. We know for

984
01:15:53.000 --> 01:15:57.000
sure that Pelham is coming out.
Does that been announced it? Who's doing

985
01:15:57.039 --> 01:16:03.680
that? Uh? Hell? Oh
uh, that's your you're mixing up two

986
01:16:03.680 --> 01:16:12.079
of the titles the gosh, but
for some reason, assault on Precinct thirteen

987
01:16:12.920 --> 01:16:15.199
thirteen is the one I'm thinking of. That's the one we know for sure

988
01:16:15.319 --> 01:16:18.439
is getting a skin. Well,
we know that def Crocodile has restored it,

989
01:16:18.520 --> 01:16:23.279
but they they have been claiming all
along that they don't have the rights

990
01:16:23.319 --> 01:16:26.800
to physical No. I think it's
going to be these guys. I do

991
01:16:26.840 --> 01:16:30.159
too. Yeah, we're still in
Shout right, yep. Yeah, I

992
01:16:30.199 --> 01:16:32.760
think it's gonna be these guys.
And uh, we still got some rando

993
01:16:32.920 --> 01:16:36.279
titles here coming out from Shout.
But after that, let's talk about the

994
01:16:36.319 --> 01:16:41.359
bundle that they're putting out for Escape
from New York. This comes with the

995
01:16:41.520 --> 01:16:45.159
Escape from New York three disc four
K set with the slipcover a limited edition

996
01:16:45.319 --> 01:16:49.279
eighteen by twenty four inch roll poster
of the original theatrical artwork, which I

997
01:16:49.319 --> 01:16:53.880
love that that's the poster they're giving
us. But the big thing here,

998
01:16:54.960 --> 01:16:57.680
just like the other Carpenter titles that
they've done on four K, we are

999
01:16:57.680 --> 01:17:03.680
getting a seven inch on exclusive with
blue splatter vinyl from Sacred Bones featuring music

1000
01:17:03.680 --> 01:17:08.880
from Escape from New York composed by
John Carpenter and recorded by John and his

1001
01:17:08.960 --> 01:17:13.680
son Cody Carpenter and Daniel Davies.
There is the twenty seventeen version of the

1002
01:17:13.680 --> 01:17:17.439
main title and the B side contains
a never before released recording of sixty ninth

1003
01:17:17.479 --> 01:17:25.279
Street Bridge recorded in twenty twenty,
and that vinyl is through Screen Factory limited

1004
01:17:25.319 --> 01:17:30.079
to two thousand copies. However,
Sacred Bones also has their own variant of

1005
01:17:30.119 --> 01:17:33.319
that vinyl, and personally I think
that Sacred Bones version actually looks a little

1006
01:17:33.319 --> 01:17:38.920
bit better, But for people that
aren't into the variance, that's no big

1007
01:17:38.960 --> 01:17:43.119
deal. And then on top of
that, if you get this giant package

1008
01:17:43.159 --> 01:17:46.239
Screen Factory and Gutter Garbs have teamed
up to bring you the official Escape from

1009
01:17:46.239 --> 01:17:50.560
New York enamel pin set, exclusive
to shout Factory dot com and limited to

1010
01:17:50.640 --> 01:17:56.520
only one thousand units. And through
that, these five little pieces of art

1011
01:17:56.560 --> 01:18:00.000
in the bottom corner are the enamel
pins that you're getting. And now again,

1012
01:18:00.199 --> 01:18:03.479
last time we talked about in an
enamel pin set coming from screen Factory,

1013
01:18:03.520 --> 01:18:09.159
everybody was crying because I how expensive
it was. Enamel pins are expensive.

1014
01:18:10.039 --> 01:18:13.880
Enamel pins take a lot to make, and they usually average in price

1015
01:18:14.439 --> 01:18:18.279
somewhere between like twelve to fifteen dollars. So at five of these, even

1016
01:18:18.319 --> 01:18:23.840
on the low end, there twelve
at five at sixty bucks. The set

1017
01:18:23.880 --> 01:18:29.479
here with the pins is sixty dollars
more than the set without the pins,

1018
01:18:29.520 --> 01:18:32.119
and all you're getting is that pin
set. So yeah, it's a little

1019
01:18:32.199 --> 01:18:35.680
high, but if you are a
pin collector, which a lot of people

1020
01:18:35.760 --> 01:18:40.319
are, then it checks out and
you're used to that price range. I'm

1021
01:18:40.319 --> 01:18:43.479
not going to necessarily defend that.
I think that they probably could have made

1022
01:18:43.520 --> 01:18:46.800
it about forty to forty five dollars
more and it would have made sense for

1023
01:18:46.840 --> 01:18:51.840
them economically. Still, it'll sell
out, probably though, Oh yeah,

1024
01:18:53.000 --> 01:18:57.079
I guarantee you will. It's a
carpenter And honestly, that's probably why the

1025
01:18:57.720 --> 01:19:00.560
Happy Death Day one with the exclusive
pin set, I think that was only

1026
01:19:00.640 --> 01:19:05.840
forty five or fifty dollars more,
and that's it'll probably still sell out,

1027
01:19:05.960 --> 01:19:10.560
but not as fast as this one. Religion in interesting times, I know,

1028
01:19:10.960 --> 01:19:13.479
I don't want to go up to
two we of a detour at this,

1029
01:19:13.600 --> 01:19:15.680
but like, if they do get
the rights to Nightmare on Elm Street,

1030
01:19:16.039 --> 01:19:18.600
they could kind of present how they
wanted, right. Oh yeah,

1031
01:19:18.720 --> 01:19:23.560
if it was three hundred bucks,
it would sell well. And the big

1032
01:19:23.640 --> 01:19:27.039
question if they get the rights to
Nightmare on Elm Street, do they get

1033
01:19:27.079 --> 01:19:30.800
the rights to all of them in
four K? Because we have never seen

1034
01:19:30.239 --> 01:19:35.359
through any distributor an entire franchise on
four K all at once in a box

1035
01:19:35.359 --> 01:19:42.760
set like that. That I mean, that would easily be three hundred dollars

1036
01:19:42.760 --> 01:19:46.039
worth of content. Yeah, that's
true. The amount of money that would

1037
01:19:46.039 --> 01:19:51.600
go into scanning and color grading and
HDR and all of that would be intense.

1038
01:19:53.079 --> 01:19:57.479
Yeah, that's true. And I
say that right after. You know,

1039
01:19:58.000 --> 01:20:00.479
if you went to the Amazon or
Target buy to get one free sale

1040
01:20:00.520 --> 01:20:03.800
and tried to order the Friday the
thirteenth set. You could have got it

1041
01:20:03.800 --> 01:20:10.399
for like sixty seven dollars a few
times, which is that's so cheap for

1042
01:20:10.439 --> 01:20:14.640
that entire set. That set is
incredible. It doesn't even feel like they

1043
01:20:14.680 --> 01:20:17.359
cover cost of that. Maybe so
somehow, but that's crazy. Yep,

1044
01:20:18.960 --> 01:20:25.159
all right, that is a weird
picture. To follow that up with Shout

1045
01:20:25.159 --> 01:20:30.920
Factories also putting out the nineteen ninety
seven Trekkies the twenty fifth anniversary edition.

1046
01:20:30.199 --> 01:20:34.119
Get ready to beam up to a
galaxy where autograph hounds abound, dentist drill

1047
01:20:34.159 --> 01:20:39.920
and Federation garb, and the debate
over Trekkies versus Trekkers rages on. For

1048
01:20:39.960 --> 01:20:42.479
those of you that want this,
you probably already know what this is.

1049
01:20:42.560 --> 01:20:48.199
I'm not going to dive too deep
into Trekkies. Next is Poopel of Chimney

1050
01:20:48.199 --> 01:20:51.920
Town from twenty twenty. That's probably
not at all how you say that,

1051
01:20:53.279 --> 01:20:57.319
But Shout Factory does a lot of
these animated titles, so again, if

1052
01:20:57.319 --> 01:21:00.039
you are looking for this, you
probably already know about it and going to

1053
01:21:00.079 --> 01:21:05.560
move to the next one. This
is a Screen Factory title that continues the

1054
01:21:05.640 --> 01:21:11.159
erotic thriller trend. So this is
go ahead, No, I said,

1055
01:21:11.199 --> 01:21:16.800
yeah, it does. This is
a fen fetal directed by Brian de Palma

1056
01:21:17.239 --> 01:21:21.960
from two thousand and two. This
is with Antonio Benderis and Rebecca Romaine Stemos.

1057
01:21:23.319 --> 01:21:27.119
A ten million dollar diamond ripoff,
a stolen identity, a new life

1058
01:21:27.199 --> 01:21:30.439
married to a diplomat Laura. I
think it's pronounce Laura. Laura ash has

1059
01:21:30.600 --> 01:21:34.680
risked big, one big, but
then a tabloid shutterbug snaps her picture in

1060
01:21:34.720 --> 01:21:40.239
Paris, and suddenly enemies from Laura's
secret past know who and where she is,

1061
01:21:40.560 --> 01:21:43.560
and they all want their share of
the diamond heist or her life or

1062
01:21:43.600 --> 01:21:50.279
both. And uh yeah, fem
fatal is. Uh it's a movie.

1063
01:21:51.640 --> 01:21:56.680
Yeah, I wish I had done
more research in nineties thrillers. I don't

1064
01:21:56.720 --> 01:22:00.199
think that's a genre that I like. I mean, I've seen this movie

1065
01:22:00.239 --> 01:22:02.079
on the shelves and video stores for
years, but I don't think I ever

1066
01:22:02.159 --> 01:22:06.800
saw it. And if I remember
right, I believe this is the first

1067
01:22:06.800 --> 01:22:11.560
Blu Ray release of this one as
well. Nice, which is kind of

1068
01:22:11.560 --> 01:22:17.359
a big deal for a di Palma
movie. Sure, yeah, yeah cool.

1069
01:22:18.600 --> 01:22:23.840
We are also getting from Shout Select
two for the Money, featuring a

1070
01:22:24.000 --> 01:22:30.359
really odd looking, Matthew McConaughey.
We got Al Pacino, Matthew McConaughey,

1071
01:22:30.399 --> 01:22:33.680
and Renee Russo a name that I
have not heard in a very long time.

1072
01:22:34.359 --> 01:22:39.079
Yeah, yes, is Yeah,
she was huge around this time.

1073
01:22:39.079 --> 01:22:42.600
This is from two thousand and five, when Brandon Lang is tapped to be

1074
01:22:42.640 --> 01:22:46.760
the protege of sports Gamblings power player
Walter Abrams. He swiftly becomes the golden

1075
01:22:46.760 --> 01:22:51.720
boy of the high Rollers for consistently
picking football winners. Now, with millions

1076
01:22:51.720 --> 01:22:56.560
on the line, Brandon finds himself
in a deadly game of con versus con

1077
01:22:56.600 --> 01:23:00.119
with his mentor. Jeremy Piven is
also in this two thousand and five Jeremy

1078
01:23:00.119 --> 01:23:05.479
Piven. Nice. This has audio
commentary with the director GJ. Caruso and

1079
01:23:05.520 --> 01:23:13.479
screenwriter Dan Gilroy The Making of Insider
Interview with deleted scenes with optional audio commentary

1080
01:23:13.479 --> 01:23:18.640
with DJ Cruso or Dan Gilroy.
It's a decent little shout Select release,

1081
01:23:18.720 --> 01:23:23.800
but kind of an odd title.
This guy, this DJ Caruso guy.

1082
01:23:25.279 --> 01:23:29.119
I think, if I'm not wrong, I think he's being asked to direct

1083
01:23:29.520 --> 01:23:33.840
the fourth Triple X movie. You
know that Vin Diesel series. I think

1084
01:23:33.880 --> 01:23:41.479
he gets these like kind of like
genre action new movies to do. Shouts

1085
01:23:41.479 --> 01:23:43.920
Select is weird. Do you do
you collect them? Are you complete on

1086
01:23:43.960 --> 01:23:46.880
them? Uh? No, nowhere
near complete. They're one of those where

1087
01:23:48.479 --> 01:23:51.079
I don't know, if they stuck
to one type of film, it would

1088
01:23:51.079 --> 01:23:55.199
be a lot easier to choose from. But I mean for a company that

1089
01:23:55.199 --> 01:24:00.520
has put out the big Sleep Liar
Liar and uh you know what, yeah,

1090
01:24:00.520 --> 01:24:05.880
exactly, and then like the Pink
Panther films, they don't really feel

1091
01:24:05.880 --> 01:24:12.239
like they fit as a cohesive line. I think when they originally announce Shout

1092
01:24:12.239 --> 01:24:15.039
Select that it was these are important
type of films that they were trying to

1093
01:24:15.079 --> 01:24:18.680
go for, and then I don't
know that, uh that seemed to go

1094
01:24:18.720 --> 01:24:24.560
away quite quickly. Yeah, yeah, the same thing. I can't keep

1095
01:24:24.600 --> 01:24:28.319
up. I mean, they've got
some they've got some really great titles.

1096
01:24:28.359 --> 01:24:30.279
I'm not taking that away from them. But the big thing with Shout Select

1097
01:24:30.439 --> 01:24:35.319
is that they they seem to have
just stopped the like the Collector's editions that

1098
01:24:35.319 --> 01:24:40.239
they've put out, they only have
been putting out like one every like eight

1099
01:24:40.479 --> 01:24:44.239
months or more. I think last
year only had Explorers, that was a

1100
01:24:44.279 --> 01:24:47.760
big collector's edition that was a big
title for shout Select. I mean even

1101
01:24:47.760 --> 01:24:51.439
this year we got liar, liar, just what was that January that that

1102
01:24:51.479 --> 01:24:56.680
came out or maybe February, But
it had a new scan and they didn't

1103
01:24:56.720 --> 01:24:58.920
give it a collector's edition, they
didn't put a slip on it. They

1104
01:24:58.920 --> 01:25:00.760
didn't get a whole bunch of new
act and I don't know why that is

1105
01:25:00.800 --> 01:25:06.880
a huge title to get sure.
Yeah, in the comments, Nathan says

1106
01:25:06.920 --> 01:25:13.119
fem Feto is awesome and it has
style that sounds like it's a follow movie.

1107
01:25:13.680 --> 01:25:20.720
Yep. Great. Speaking of movies, I guess that shout Select puts

1108
01:25:20.720 --> 01:25:25.159
out they're also putting out dinosaur World. If you're really looking for this.

1109
01:25:25.159 --> 01:25:30.960
This is from twenty twenty. Uh, hilarious. Welcome to dinosaur World,

1110
01:25:30.039 --> 01:25:34.439
an eye popping place where anything can
happen and the life and death stakes are

1111
01:25:34.520 --> 01:25:44.279
all too real. I think that
is an actual asteroid. Yeah, and

1112
01:25:44.319 --> 01:25:48.359
it looks like there's two of them. Uh yeah this Uh, I'm curious

1113
01:25:48.399 --> 01:25:56.640
how many of these they're gonna say, tens, dozens even, Okay,

1114
01:25:56.680 --> 01:26:01.359
moving on to something more up your
time zone at least Son of Samson from

1115
01:26:01.439 --> 01:26:06.680
nineteen sixties coming from Keno lober And
is getting one of their now famous slipcovers

1116
01:26:06.680 --> 01:26:12.520
that seemingly everything is getting. Uh, this is getting a new audio commentary

1117
01:26:12.560 --> 01:26:18.960
by film historian David Delvaier and filmmaker
historian Michael Varatti. Uh, let's see.

1118
01:26:19.640 --> 01:26:25.119
Yeah, I was, I was
pumped to see this one. This

1119
01:26:25.199 --> 01:26:29.960
is what's the Oh, so I'm
gonna anyways, there's there's a you know,

1120
01:26:30.000 --> 01:26:32.119
one of these Italian my chie state
films, my chief state films.

1121
01:26:32.279 --> 01:26:35.279
It's one of these big kind of
Italian like strong men, you know,

1122
01:26:35.399 --> 01:26:40.800
sort of sort of sandals type type
things that it's one of the one of

1123
01:26:40.800 --> 01:26:43.439
the better ones in that genre.
This is a it's a really fun movie.

1124
01:26:43.960 --> 01:26:47.520
Yeah. And I believe they have
rights for another one that is similar

1125
01:26:47.560 --> 01:26:49.840
to this. I can't remember the
title of the other one, but I

1126
01:26:49.840 --> 01:26:54.359
think that is coming soon as well. Is this part of their streaming thing?

1127
01:26:54.479 --> 01:26:58.560
Have you ever tried their genre streaming
thing? I did when it first

1128
01:26:58.680 --> 01:27:01.600
announced that it coming out. I
think, what did I watch on there?

1129
01:27:01.600 --> 01:27:05.720
I think I watched like a Vincent
Price movie and maybe one other,

1130
01:27:06.399 --> 01:27:11.880
but I generally I try not to
stream so much. I've used it.

1131
01:27:11.920 --> 01:27:14.960
The main reason I used it is
because sometimes I would get lucky and be

1132
01:27:14.960 --> 01:27:17.399
able to watch things while I work, and that's what I used it for,

1133
01:27:17.479 --> 01:27:21.560
because they have a better option for
things like this, And yeah,

1134
01:27:21.680 --> 01:27:26.439
it worked well for that for a
while. But now I started that new

1135
01:27:26.479 --> 01:27:30.800
position in gosh, I think it
was November, and that was like a

1136
01:27:30.880 --> 01:27:33.159
month after they announced it, so
I've just been swamped since then. Yeah,

1137
01:27:33.239 --> 01:27:41.239
yeah, yeah, Son of Samson
and this is coming on May tenth.

1138
01:27:41.640 --> 01:27:45.119
All right, we did get a
newsletter from Anto Micabro and at the

1139
01:27:45.279 --> 01:27:49.760
end they said that they are going
to be having available to pre order in

1140
01:27:49.920 --> 01:27:56.319
late May or early June. The
other side of the mirror from Jess Franco

1141
01:27:57.800 --> 01:28:01.800
in nineteen seventy three. All right, you said, this is in the

1142
01:28:02.199 --> 01:28:05.239
this is from I missed this announcement. This is from Aanda Macabro. Yep,

1143
01:28:05.399 --> 01:28:12.039
came in their newsletter. Oh cool, good for them. This is

1144
01:28:12.079 --> 01:28:16.119
a very late era Jess Franco,
and I believe they are planning on having

1145
01:28:16.239 --> 01:28:21.119
three or four titles available to pre
order at this time, so it'll be

1146
01:28:21.159 --> 01:28:26.680
this plus two more or this plus
three more at the end of May or

1147
01:28:26.840 --> 01:28:31.840
early June that this is going to
be available. Yeah, big stuff coming

1148
01:28:31.840 --> 01:28:34.960
for them this year. This should
sell really well. There's a lot of

1149
01:28:35.079 --> 01:28:40.840
just Franco, just francohites. I
think that they are called Franco files.

1150
01:28:41.399 --> 01:28:46.720
Oh that's better, that's much better. And so yeah, they said check

1151
01:28:46.760 --> 01:28:50.199
out justin Coffee's amazing new artwork for
it above. It will be one of

1152
01:28:50.279 --> 01:28:55.560
at least three, possibly even four
new limited edition blues that will have on

1153
01:28:55.640 --> 01:29:00.560
sale probably in May or early June. And then just to remind everybody that

1154
01:29:00.640 --> 01:29:04.439
they are also doing Caligari and four
K during the Halloween sale. And then

1155
01:29:04.760 --> 01:29:10.840
between the June announcements and the Halloween
sale there should be another round of pre

1156
01:29:10.960 --> 01:29:14.920
orders in there somewhere around like August
ish, I believe. I think that's

1157
01:29:14.960 --> 01:29:18.640
the one that's gonna have their box
set. I either that or box set

1158
01:29:18.720 --> 01:29:26.399
may be pushed to Halloween. Now. Yeah, really really great looking year

1159
01:29:26.439 --> 01:29:29.840
for them, though this one,
Mitchell says, this one is exciting.

1160
01:29:29.920 --> 01:29:33.640
This one is indeed exciting Monta Micabre. They are seeming to ramp it up

1161
01:29:33.760 --> 01:29:40.159
after a semi slow I mean even
then twenty twenty one wasn't slow for them,

1162
01:29:40.239 --> 01:29:43.560
just not a lot that people seem
to get like this fervor for and

1163
01:29:43.600 --> 01:29:46.079
they have some incredible stuff coming their
first four K. That's a big deal.

1164
01:29:46.720 --> 01:29:53.720
Yeah, but now it's time to
get into the big stuff. I

1165
01:29:53.760 --> 01:29:57.039
almost feel like we should take an
intermission and put on the let's all go

1166
01:29:57.039 --> 01:30:01.479
to the Lobby song or something.
Uh. Vinegar Syndrome. On the first

1167
01:30:01.479 --> 01:30:06.039
of March, they put up all
of their March package that you can pre

1168
01:30:06.199 --> 01:30:13.840
order and all of their three hundred
and seventeen partner label releases. First from

1169
01:30:13.920 --> 01:30:17.800
Vinegar Syndrome, a four K double
feature of Schizoid and then let me switch

1170
01:30:17.840 --> 01:30:24.159
the artwork and x ray. Now, for those of you that don't have

1171
01:30:24.239 --> 01:30:29.680
a ten minute memory, this exact
double feature was previously released by Screen Factory

1172
01:30:30.520 --> 01:30:34.039
and it is still like it's not
I don't think this is one that got

1173
01:30:34.119 --> 01:30:41.920
super expensive. It may have,
but these movies, Schizoid particularly, is

1174
01:30:41.960 --> 01:30:45.880
not like incredible. I don't love
it. X Ray is pretty fun,

1175
01:30:45.000 --> 01:30:50.960
but they're all right. I was
joking with Zach. I don't know if

1176
01:30:51.000 --> 01:30:56.000
he's still on the line, but
we were joking about I really want one

1177
01:30:56.039 --> 01:31:00.000
of the special features to be like
some mention of how Klaus Kinky klaus Kinski,

1178
01:31:00.159 --> 01:31:02.800
just like destroyed the set. It
was like a real pain in the

1179
01:31:02.840 --> 01:31:06.159
ass on the set for Schizoid.
I mean, I don't know if that's

1180
01:31:06.159 --> 01:31:10.319
true, but I'm assuming it was
on most of his films. Yes,

1181
01:31:10.760 --> 01:31:15.920
I kind of want to start calling
him klass Kinky now. Eric Johnson,

1182
01:31:15.920 --> 01:31:17.439
talking about that last one, says, the only Jess Franco I've seen his

1183
01:31:17.479 --> 01:31:20.880
Bloody Moon, which I hated,
and I will say I also did not

1184
01:31:21.039 --> 01:31:24.920
like Bloody Moon. I think it
is one of his worst movies. So

1185
01:31:25.199 --> 01:31:28.399
if that means anything, Eric,
I would strongly suggest looking at some of

1186
01:31:28.439 --> 01:31:32.560
the other ones. So go ahead. No, I said, that's and

1187
01:31:32.600 --> 01:31:36.000
that's saying something. Jess Franco's fine, but he has some bad movies,

1188
01:31:36.000 --> 01:31:41.960
and he's kind of like he's got
he's got some real stinkers. Uh.

1189
01:31:42.079 --> 01:31:45.319
These two titles, the first one, like I said, Schizoid. Peter

1190
01:31:45.439 --> 01:31:49.960
Fails is a renowned a psychiatrist who
is unable to reconcile his relationship with his

1191
01:31:50.039 --> 01:31:55.399
teenage daughter, Alison. Julie,
one of Peter's patients, is a successful

1192
01:31:55.479 --> 01:31:59.760
advice columnist in the midst of a
messy divorce, who has also started receiving

1193
01:32:00.479 --> 01:32:04.479
letters. When a black clad scissors
wielding killer begins murdering people in Julie's life.

1194
01:32:04.680 --> 01:32:09.399
She begins to suspect that her unknown
writer and this mystery assailant might be

1195
01:32:09.479 --> 01:32:14.520
one and the same. And that's
from nineteen eighty and then X rays from

1196
01:32:14.600 --> 01:32:18.079
nineteen eighty two, when Susan was
a little girl, she rejected the valentine

1197
01:32:18.119 --> 01:32:21.600
of a love struck classmate. Decades
later, she's come to the hospital for

1198
01:32:21.680 --> 01:32:27.239
a routine medical examination, but when
her X ray seems to show something unusual,

1199
01:32:27.520 --> 01:32:30.880
Susan finds herself trapped in a bizarre
medical nightmare made all the worse as

1200
01:32:30.880 --> 01:32:38.000
her vengeful childhood valentine, disguised among
the hospital staff, begins murdering everyone in

1201
01:32:38.079 --> 01:32:44.079
his path as a means of proving
his undying romantic obsession. Really unique premise

1202
01:32:44.119 --> 01:32:45.560
for X ray, which is one
of the main reasons why I like it.

1203
01:32:46.359 --> 01:32:51.159
Yeah, I haven't seen X ray
actually, but Zach was touting its

1204
01:32:51.199 --> 01:32:55.960
praises and now you are as well, so I'll definitely be excited for this

1205
01:32:56.000 --> 01:32:59.399
one. Schizoid, what do you
think you have a I forget if it's

1206
01:32:59.399 --> 01:33:02.199
as a kind of a hobby or
formal training and counseling kind of psychiatry,

1207
01:33:02.319 --> 01:33:06.920
right, psychology. Yeah, what
do you think about all these movies that

1208
01:33:08.560 --> 01:33:14.319
are having these really broad brush strokes
on you know, official diagnoses like schizoid,

1209
01:33:14.359 --> 01:33:17.960
these kind of things. They I
mean, I don't It could just

1210
01:33:18.000 --> 01:33:21.960
be me, but I approached them
obviously with with levity first and foremost.

1211
01:33:23.000 --> 01:33:29.319
But I think that at the heart
they are yeah, they're they're pure entertainment

1212
01:33:29.359 --> 01:33:35.039
pieces. They're they're trash in that
sense. But the cool thing here both

1213
01:33:35.079 --> 01:33:39.119
of these are on four K,
so there is a if you care about

1214
01:33:39.119 --> 01:33:42.680
these movies in any sense, there's
a legitimate reason to buy these over the

1215
01:33:42.680 --> 01:33:47.760
screen factory release. This is a
three disc set, two four k's and

1216
01:33:47.840 --> 01:33:53.720
a Blu Ray. The Blu ray
itself is region A locked and it's newly

1217
01:33:53.760 --> 01:33:57.479
scanned and restored in four K.
On both of these from their thirty five

1218
01:33:57.479 --> 01:34:01.279
millimeter original camera negatives. And then
there are new interviews with Schizoid, writer,

1219
01:34:01.439 --> 01:34:08.239
director, actress, makeup artist,
and another actress. And then Ultraviolet

1220
01:34:08.359 --> 01:34:13.239
Vengeance the talent and technicians of X
Ray, a brand new making of documentary

1221
01:34:13.279 --> 01:34:16.560
featuring interviews with the cast and crew
of X Ray and I love the making

1222
01:34:16.600 --> 01:34:20.840
of it. That vinegar syndrome.
They're able to do. They really do

1223
01:34:21.000 --> 01:34:29.920
great work. Yeah, let's see
Mitchell said, is that not every Klaskinski

1224
01:34:30.000 --> 01:34:36.199
vehicle movie. Yeah, Klauskinski was
a character. Yeah, this one looks

1225
01:34:36.239 --> 01:34:41.760
really good. I am glad that
it's a double feature and they're not charging

1226
01:34:41.800 --> 01:34:44.840
for two different four K releases for
these films. I think that would have

1227
01:34:44.840 --> 01:34:47.840
pissed off a lot of people considering
it was a double feature released on Blue

1228
01:34:47.840 --> 01:34:56.960
previously. But speaking of double features, they're also putting out hard Rock Zombies

1229
01:34:57.399 --> 01:35:02.279
from nineteen eighty five and a double
feature with Slaughterhouse Rock from nineteen eighty seven.

1230
01:35:03.039 --> 01:35:05.840
Now, the reason I bring that
up is similar to that last one.

1231
01:35:05.880 --> 01:35:10.960
It's because Slaughterhouse Rock had a pretty
good release from Scorpion Releasing already.

1232
01:35:13.319 --> 01:35:15.000
Have you seen either one of those? Yeah? Oh yeah, yeah,

1233
01:35:15.039 --> 01:35:18.399
yeah, for sure, I've seen
both. I mean, I don't know,

1234
01:35:18.439 --> 01:35:21.960
I'm a little biased. I love
this kind of stuff. It doesn't

1235
01:35:23.000 --> 01:35:26.079
really matter how bad it is if
it has rock in it and like metal

1236
01:35:26.079 --> 01:35:29.880
in it. I'm there. I
agree. I think this is a good

1237
01:35:29.920 --> 01:35:34.119
double feature. I'm glad that they
were able to differentiate the upgrade that they're

1238
01:35:34.159 --> 01:35:40.239
giving to Slaughterhouse Rock give people a
reason to get this, and primarily just

1239
01:35:40.319 --> 01:35:44.399
having it be a double feature,
it feels less like a cash grab because

1240
01:35:44.399 --> 01:35:46.880
they genuinely could have released both of
them as upgrades on their own right.

1241
01:35:47.960 --> 01:35:51.720
Yeah, they would have both sold, probably especially in Vinegar's line for sure.

1242
01:35:53.439 --> 01:35:56.640
So for those that don't know hard
rock Zombies from nineteen eighty five,

1243
01:35:57.119 --> 01:36:00.720
a heavy metal band has been invited
to appear in a conservative small town.

1244
01:36:00.000 --> 01:36:03.479
What they don't know is that their
hosts are in fact a family of horrific

1245
01:36:03.560 --> 01:36:09.960
and murderous mutants whose patriarch is none
other than Hitler. After being swiftly murdered,

1246
01:36:10.039 --> 01:36:14.239
Cassie, the only nonviolent member of
this depraved clan, wills the band

1247
01:36:14.319 --> 01:36:17.720
back to life. Soon, the
stuffy townspeople are faced with an unwelcoming,

1248
01:36:18.319 --> 01:36:24.399
unwelcome reckoning as the zombie fide musicians
thrash and maim their way through the community

1249
01:36:24.680 --> 01:36:30.960
and the name of grizzly revenge and
love and then Slaughterhouse Rock, which I

1250
01:36:30.399 --> 01:36:36.800
genuinely love. Slaughterhouse Rock from nineteen
eighty seven. Alex, a college student,

1251
01:36:36.880 --> 01:36:41.760
is being plagued by strange dreams,
of which a grotesque man commits heinous

1252
01:36:41.800 --> 01:36:45.800
acts of torture and murder. With
the help of his friends, Alex discovers

1253
01:36:45.800 --> 01:36:49.479
that he has an unexplained telepathic link
to a notorious killer who once lived on

1254
01:36:49.560 --> 01:36:56.640
Alcatraz Island and whose bloodlust extends beyond
the grave. When his supernatural experiences began

1255
01:36:56.800 --> 01:37:00.680
taking on real life manifestations, Alex
and his friends sneak into the abandoned prison

1256
01:37:00.760 --> 01:37:04.640
to put an end to their reign
of terror, only to unwittingly walk into

1257
01:37:04.680 --> 01:37:11.720
a bloodbath. I like the last
the way they start the last paragraph of

1258
01:37:11.760 --> 01:37:15.359
their description on their site. I
love this dispensing with any sense of narrative

1259
01:37:15.439 --> 01:37:21.239
logic, which is true. A
lot of this you gotta you gotta kinda

1260
01:37:23.039 --> 01:37:25.840
put that, you know, put
some of those expectations to the side.

1261
01:37:26.840 --> 01:37:29.239
Yeah, these are just silly,
fun movies. This is this is a

1262
01:37:29.279 --> 01:37:32.520
really good one. I agree.
Let's see. Mitchell says, I've seen

1263
01:37:32.520 --> 01:37:36.000
Slaughterhouse Rocks cover before, but never
seen the movie, and it's a very

1264
01:37:36.159 --> 01:37:43.000
iconic cover, so a lot of
people will recognize that for sure. Justin

1265
01:37:43.119 --> 01:37:46.439
says in the newsletter, they said
that Slaughterhouse Rock has extra gore footage that

1266
01:37:46.520 --> 01:37:50.720
wasn't in the other release, so
that's a plus. And then Nathan says

1267
01:37:50.720 --> 01:37:55.520
they should have had better art for
Hard Rock Zombies. I mean, it's

1268
01:37:55.560 --> 01:38:00.520
not awful, it's it's decent,
but I can understand that. And then

1269
01:38:00.640 --> 01:38:03.920
some of the extras here. Hard
Rock Zombies is newly scanned restored in two

1270
01:38:04.039 --> 01:38:10.119
K, while Slaughterhouse Rock is newly
scanned restored in four K. Never Say

1271
01:38:10.159 --> 01:38:14.159
Die, a making of documentary featuring
interviews with e J. Kurse, samman,

1272
01:38:14.399 --> 01:38:18.319
Gino Andrews, Mick McCain's, Ted
Wells, Richard Vidan, and David

1273
01:38:18.319 --> 01:38:24.760
O'Hara. That's coming on Hard Rock
Zombies, and then Gotta Love the title

1274
01:38:24.800 --> 01:38:29.479
of this featurette with special effects artist
Chris Briggs and Everett Burrell, Popcorn Farts

1275
01:38:29.479 --> 01:38:33.359
and Low Budget Cheese. They also
have an interview with actress Who'sette Boggs and

1276
01:38:33.560 --> 01:38:39.279
the Bible of Holy Moses, Holy
Moses, Watching Hard Rock Zombies through a

1277
01:38:39.279 --> 01:38:45.199
fanatics eye, an interview with author
Lucy Hall, and then Slaughterhouse Rocks.

1278
01:38:45.199 --> 01:38:48.000
They've got an interview with the cinematographer, an interview with actress Tammy Hyler,

1279
01:38:48.359 --> 01:38:54.119
and an interview with the actor Nicholas
Selosi and an interview with the actor Al

1280
01:38:54.319 --> 01:38:59.239
Fleming. Not a whole lot on
Slaughterhouse Rock, but it's still something.

1281
01:39:00.479 --> 01:39:03.800
I'm team Nathan. I don't like
the covers for Headrock Zombies. Yeah,

1282
01:39:03.800 --> 01:39:08.960
obviously it could have been better.
For sure, it is what it is.

1283
01:39:09.199 --> 01:39:10.880
I got it. I mean I'm
a subscriber, so I get it

1284
01:39:10.880 --> 01:39:15.960
anyways, right, John says,
boy, if that Slaughterhouse Rock cover doesn't

1285
01:39:16.000 --> 01:39:18.880
tickle your video store and installed you
a happy place, I don't know what

1286
01:39:18.920 --> 01:39:28.640
will. Slaughterhouse Rock was everywhere,
but this may be the biggest title that

1287
01:39:28.680 --> 01:39:34.279
everybody is talking about this month.
Under syndrome. Somehow got Reform school Girls.

1288
01:39:34.600 --> 01:39:41.359
Yeah, this is a big deal, a huge deal. Obviously.

1289
01:39:41.479 --> 01:39:46.800
This has the legendary Sybil Danning,
and this is a film that people genuinely

1290
01:39:47.119 --> 01:39:51.479
know and love from a very you
know, a deep place for a lot

1291
01:39:51.520 --> 01:39:56.399
of people. This is from nineteen
eighty six, and the Pride More Juvenile

1292
01:39:56.439 --> 01:40:00.680
Detention facility isn't just a place for
troubled teenage girls to serve of their time.

1293
01:40:00.159 --> 01:40:05.479
Instead, it's a living hell filled
with sexual depravity and violence. Jenny,

1294
01:40:05.560 --> 01:40:10.600
a fresh inmate, becomes the de
facto protector of Lisa, an innocent

1295
01:40:10.680 --> 01:40:14.439
young girl forced to be a plaything
to anyone after her body. Then there's

1296
01:40:14.520 --> 01:40:18.119
Charlie, a hard and teenage lesbian
who torments her fellow prisoners through brutal acts

1297
01:40:18.159 --> 01:40:23.399
of sexual sadism. But no one
instills more fear and even the toughest girls

1298
01:40:23.640 --> 01:40:26.880
than the sadistic Edna, who,
with a blind eye turned by money,

1299
01:40:26.960 --> 01:40:30.960
hungry ward and Sutter, delights in
terrorizing her beautiful prisoners. However, the

1300
01:40:30.960 --> 01:40:36.479
girls have had enough and things are
about to change at Pride. More So,

1301
01:40:38.079 --> 01:40:43.439
this is a quick tangent, but
it's directly related. I promise have

1302
01:40:43.560 --> 01:40:46.560
you ever sat through Angel three?
The Vinegar did that three? Angel?

1303
01:40:46.920 --> 01:40:57.880
Of course? That commentary is fascinating
Tom de Simoni, And then that director

1304
01:40:57.960 --> 01:41:04.279
that I don't like, David Dicoto, David Dakoto. They just David is

1305
01:41:04.319 --> 01:41:08.279
basically like I guess he was kind
of like mentored by Tom, and they

1306
01:41:08.279 --> 01:41:11.720
both grew up in the world of
like shooting pornography together and then kind of

1307
01:41:11.840 --> 01:41:17.800
transitioning into like kind of mainline genre
films. And it's a really good commentary.

1308
01:41:18.079 --> 01:41:21.199
So anyways, like I'm sure that
it would be good here as well.

1309
01:41:21.239 --> 01:41:24.560
But like, if you want to
hear two people that have grown up

1310
01:41:24.560 --> 01:41:28.520
together just kind of geeking out on
like the way they got into filmmaking and

1311
01:41:28.880 --> 01:41:30.680
what it was like, to what
the lessons they learned from making pornography and

1312
01:41:30.720 --> 01:41:33.239
like all this stuff. It's it's
cool. I was shocked by it,

1313
01:41:33.239 --> 01:41:38.159
Like it's way better than the movie. Yeah, and that's obviously not hard

1314
01:41:38.199 --> 01:41:42.359
to do, but it's just a
great reminder to really pay attention to the

1315
01:41:42.359 --> 01:41:45.039
extras that are on some of these
because not only will it give you a

1316
01:41:45.079 --> 01:41:49.920
new appreciation for like film in general, but sometimes a lot of these movies

1317
01:41:50.000 --> 01:41:54.680
people loathe the first time they watched
them, but just by watching the commentary,

1318
01:41:55.039 --> 01:41:58.319
it can flip your entire understanding of
a movie. It can give you

1319
01:41:58.600 --> 01:42:01.399
the appreciation that you need to really
understand, like why they even made a

1320
01:42:01.399 --> 01:42:05.199
film. You can get motivations,
you can get you know, this took

1321
01:42:05.520 --> 01:42:09.359
four days to film this way,
and just listening to the story of why

1322
01:42:09.399 --> 01:42:13.800
they did that, you suddenly appreciate
everything so much more. Yeah, totally.

1323
01:42:15.039 --> 01:42:17.319
So. This one is region free, newly scanned and restored in two

1324
01:42:17.399 --> 01:42:23.279
K from the thirty five millimeter interpositive. There is also an extended making of

1325
01:42:23.319 --> 01:42:27.840
documentary featuring brand new interviews with the
cast and crew, which just excites me

1326
01:42:27.880 --> 01:42:31.880
so much. Interview with the theatrical
producer Alan Eichler, an interview with author

1327
01:42:31.920 --> 01:42:36.079
and critic Brianna Whipple on the life
and career of actress Wendy o Williams.

1328
01:42:36.479 --> 01:42:41.760
There's archival commentary track with the writer
and director, which is great, and

1329
01:42:41.800 --> 01:42:45.560
then commentary track with queer film historian
Elizabeth Purcell, video footage from the play

1330
01:42:45.600 --> 01:42:48.840
woman behind Bars, and then all
of this stuff that's on everything. This

1331
01:42:48.920 --> 01:42:51.880
is great. I'm glad that they
got a title this big. This is

1332
01:42:53.920 --> 01:42:57.840
one of those like big deal titles
for them. Yeah. Yeah, it'll

1333
01:42:57.880 --> 01:43:01.000
see a lot for them, and
good good for them for sure. Yeah.

1334
01:43:01.119 --> 01:43:08.680
Speaking of things that will sell a
lot, how about the next VSA

1335
01:43:08.800 --> 01:43:13.479
title that you can order now.
This is Talons of the Eagle, featuring

1336
01:43:13.640 --> 01:43:16.840
the Man the Myth of the Legend, Billy Blinks and Jelal. I never

1337
01:43:16.880 --> 01:43:19.840
remember I say his last name,
is it Mary Mariah? I think it's

1338
01:43:19.960 --> 01:43:26.119
Murphy, but I heard him just
someone said he's I don't know if this

1339
01:43:26.199 --> 01:43:29.399
is the title he gave himself or
if like people called him this, but

1340
01:43:29.479 --> 01:43:35.039
they called him the Lebanese Steven Sacal, Like I don't know, like he's

1341
01:43:35.199 --> 01:43:40.920
just it's kind of I can't get
that out of my head now. So

1342
01:43:42.039 --> 01:43:46.880
like he is so proud of himself
in all these movies that VSA has been

1343
01:43:46.880 --> 01:43:49.720
putting out. It cracks me up. So I can't wait to watch this

1344
01:43:49.800 --> 01:43:57.680
one. I got a question,
what do you before we get into the

1345
01:43:57.720 --> 01:44:01.720
overall discussion of the movie, what
do you feel that the VSA line has

1346
01:44:01.800 --> 01:44:06.800
turned into for you? And what
do you feel about the number of VSAs

1347
01:44:06.840 --> 01:44:11.680
that we've gotten as well? Oh
cool, I was literally thinking about this

1348
01:44:11.920 --> 01:44:15.439
yesterday. That's so funny. Maybe
we're just kind of synthatical right here.

1349
01:44:17.319 --> 01:44:23.279
So VSP represents sort of like modern
films that Vinegar Syndromes putting out that fit

1350
01:44:23.399 --> 01:44:29.319
like their style, right, and
then there's the main line obviously, and

1351
01:44:29.359 --> 01:44:31.640
then VSU. I don't know,
I guess I kind of the way you

1352
01:44:31.640 --> 01:44:35.479
could think about it as like big, really famous like cult classics that they're

1353
01:44:35.520 --> 01:44:39.239
bringing in, like all the stops
for and like really kind of blowing out

1354
01:44:39.239 --> 01:44:44.359
of the water and for VSUS.
By the way, they did say they

1355
01:44:44.720 --> 01:44:47.960
wanted to highlight those because they don't
fit with the vinegar syndrome line. It

1356
01:44:47.960 --> 01:44:50.800
wouldn't make any sense on vinegar syndrome, but basically is what they said.

1357
01:44:51.399 --> 01:44:57.119
Okay, then I guess the cynic
in me says, like, but their

1358
01:44:57.159 --> 01:45:00.760
movies they want to put out because
they're gonna sell a lot, but which

1359
01:45:00.800 --> 01:45:03.840
I mean, I'm really happy they
did Best Masters a lot of fun but

1360
01:45:04.000 --> 01:45:10.399
vsay, I don't know. They're
like they have Action USA, so anything

1361
01:45:10.399 --> 01:45:13.439
else they do after that, they're
forgiven for because that's one of the greatest

1362
01:45:13.439 --> 01:45:16.279
movies of all time. And I'll
fight you, like not you, but

1363
01:45:16.319 --> 01:45:21.479
like anybody is, like I've seen
that movie I don't know twenty times at

1364
01:45:21.479 --> 01:45:25.680
this point, and I was when
they released that, Like it felt like

1365
01:45:25.720 --> 01:45:30.640
I was falling in love my heart
like skipping. Yeah, they feel like

1366
01:45:30.840 --> 01:45:34.439
they've been really into these joelaw Mary
he's like a producer that likes to do

1367
01:45:34.520 --> 01:45:40.000
martial arts. I guess, so
they've been really into his films and fine,

1368
01:45:40.079 --> 01:45:44.479
I guess you know they love the
Cynthia roth Rock movies and Okay,

1369
01:45:44.640 --> 01:45:48.119
like I don't know they I'm here
for them. I'll keep supporting them.

1370
01:45:48.520 --> 01:45:51.920
They've They've got me suckered in with
that hard box. It looks nice and

1371
01:45:53.000 --> 01:45:55.199
has number on it, so I'll
keep going for a while. And a

1372
01:45:55.199 --> 01:45:59.479
poster with every single one, and
a poster like and honestly like a great

1373
01:45:59.520 --> 01:46:02.760
release like the movies all have.
They look and sound fantastic. I don't

1374
01:46:02.800 --> 01:46:08.560
know, I'm neutral on them.
What about you? First off, Zach

1375
01:46:08.600 --> 01:46:10.399
says, if you want to go
to sleep at some point, don't let

1376
01:46:10.479 --> 01:46:15.520
Christacker. I will say, like
I. First off, VSAY stands for

1377
01:46:15.600 --> 01:46:21.720
Vinegar Syndrome Archive, and they are
supposedly treating it as the video store of

1378
01:46:21.880 --> 01:46:28.520
your type of titles and what we
got from them, some of them are

1379
01:46:29.279 --> 01:46:32.880
great action USA, wonderful movie.
I just did a review for Four Cheers

1380
01:46:32.880 --> 01:46:35.640
of America. It's not an incredible
movie, but it's a hell of a

1381
01:46:35.640 --> 01:46:40.279
lot of fun. It was a
very fun movie to watch. I was

1382
01:46:40.399 --> 01:46:45.199
entertained the entire time. That being
said, we are up to I think

1383
01:46:45.359 --> 01:46:51.520
they just announced number twenty one.
I think this is twenty one. Two.

1384
01:46:53.159 --> 01:46:54.960
I think it's twenty two, but
they're right around there. Yeah.

1385
01:46:55.039 --> 01:46:58.680
So when they first put these out, we were getting like four or five

1386
01:46:58.760 --> 01:47:02.000
a year, yeah, somewhere around
there, and now we're getting like two

1387
01:47:02.119 --> 01:47:06.680
during every sale and almost one a
month. Yeah, I'm not gonna say

1388
01:47:06.800 --> 01:47:14.359
overkill necessarily, but it's just you're
you're releasing a full label's worth of movies

1389
01:47:14.359 --> 01:47:17.560
basically interesting. Yeah, it kind
of takes the like mystique out of it

1390
01:47:17.560 --> 01:47:20.800
a little bit, exactly. And
if you want them to feel special,

1391
01:47:20.880 --> 01:47:25.680
like, at least give some breathing
room around them. And the only thing

1392
01:47:25.720 --> 01:47:30.640
that made me really feel like that
this time is you just did the Big

1393
01:47:30.680 --> 01:47:35.439
Trilogy with Cynthia Rothrock and it was
great Tiger clause, it's a nice,

1394
01:47:36.000 --> 01:47:40.279
you know, decent package, came
in the same packaging all that, and

1395
01:47:40.319 --> 01:47:43.640
it was like five bucks more and
it was three movies. Yeah, why

1396
01:47:43.640 --> 01:47:46.319
wouldn't they put this with TC two
thousand and make it a double feature and

1397
01:47:46.359 --> 01:47:49.760
even you know, charge five dollars
more than a regular VSA. But then

1398
01:47:49.800 --> 01:47:55.039
you don't make people feel like I'm
gonna buy two different Billy Blanks movies and

1399
01:47:55.039 --> 01:47:59.000
spend twenty five dollars on each one. Yeah, good point, good point.

1400
01:48:00.359 --> 01:48:04.159
I don't know. I'm just curious
how they while you introduced the next

1401
01:48:04.159 --> 01:48:08.399
title, I'm gonna check. I'm
curious to see because you know, they

1402
01:48:08.399 --> 01:48:11.159
talk about like how these labels are
selling out, Like how many they have

1403
01:48:11.279 --> 01:48:15.279
left? I'm curious to see.
I'm curious to go back a few months

1404
01:48:15.279 --> 01:48:17.920
and see if these are actually selling
for them, Oh, Champagne and Bullets

1405
01:48:18.000 --> 01:48:20.960
or GID even as the other one
that should be mentioned that was a fantastic

1406
01:48:21.079 --> 01:48:26.520
movie. So they have these ones
that are big, like really like,

1407
01:48:26.560 --> 01:48:30.479
I'm really proud that they're putting out
every once in a while. Yep,

1408
01:48:30.600 --> 01:48:33.560
and again they are. They're wonderful
releases. I love the case that they

1409
01:48:33.720 --> 01:48:36.560
use, even though its a lot
of people hate trying to put the blue

1410
01:48:36.600 --> 01:48:40.439
ray case back into it. I
love that we get posters for them.

1411
01:48:40.479 --> 01:48:44.199
I am a sucker for posters.
I love that they get a lot of

1412
01:48:44.199 --> 01:48:48.159
features. It's great. I'm not
saying don't buy or support the VSA's that

1413
01:48:48.159 --> 01:48:54.720
they're genuinely great. So this one, dea agent and martial arts expert Tyler

1414
01:48:54.720 --> 01:48:59.359
Wilson Payton played by Billy Blanks himself
is sent on an assignment to Toronto,

1415
01:48:59.399 --> 01:49:02.239
where he is with trying to stop
an influx of narcotics into the States.

1416
01:49:02.600 --> 01:49:06.000
Once in Toronto, Wilson his partner
with Detective Michael Reid, and the two

1417
01:49:06.079 --> 01:49:11.920
undergo rigorous martial arts training in the
hopes of entering a local fighting tournament and

1418
01:49:11.960 --> 01:49:16.199
getting closer to a well known drug
dealer named mister Lee played by James Hogg.

1419
01:49:16.880 --> 01:49:20.319
After saving Lee's life, Wilson and
Reed go undercover in Lee's gang in

1420
01:49:20.399 --> 01:49:24.760
order to find the evidence they need
to put Lee away. However, their

1421
01:49:24.800 --> 01:49:28.520
martial arts training will be put to
the test when Wilson and Reed try to

1422
01:49:28.560 --> 01:49:30.920
take down Lee's syndicate and the two
are forced to fight for their lives.

1423
01:49:31.479 --> 01:49:36.439
With explosive action sequences and well choreographed
fight scenes, Talents of the Eagle remains

1424
01:49:36.479 --> 01:49:42.840
one of the best from action producer
Jalal Mary or Murhaigh, featuring high octane

1425
01:49:42.880 --> 01:49:46.680
martial arts performances from Billy Blanks and
Jalala himself, as well as solid solid

1426
01:49:46.720 --> 01:49:51.720
performances from Priscilla Barnes and the always
enjoyable James Hong Vininger. Syndrome Archive is

1427
01:49:51.720 --> 01:49:55.319
proud to present Talents of the Eagle
for the first time on Blu Ray,

1428
01:49:55.359 --> 01:49:59.159
scanned in four K from the Ocen. This is from nineteen ninety two and

1429
01:49:59.239 --> 01:50:03.279
its region free and we were getting
a commentary track with Joel Al and then

1430
01:50:03.359 --> 01:50:08.600
a making of documentary featuring interviews with
the cast and crew the original trailer,

1431
01:50:08.640 --> 01:50:13.319
and then again they all get double
sided posters with that new fancy VSA packaging,

1432
01:50:13.800 --> 01:50:18.479
and this one is limited to five
thousand. You know, I'm just

1433
01:50:18.640 --> 01:50:21.039
I just had an idea. Did
you see New York Ninja? And have

1434
01:50:21.119 --> 01:50:25.600
you seen that yet? Yes?
So you know how like all the voices

1435
01:50:25.640 --> 01:50:29.600
are basically like this crew, right, it's like rock, Like the VSA

1436
01:50:29.760 --> 01:50:32.840
line is basically like the voices of
New York and Ninja, right, So

1437
01:50:32.880 --> 01:50:36.760
maybe there's something there where they're like
striking deals. I don't know, and

1438
01:50:36.880 --> 01:50:41.159
it makes sense. We do know
that there are more Cynthia Rothrock films coming,

1439
01:50:41.319 --> 01:50:45.199
all right, so that makes sense. And we're almost complete on Jeel

1440
01:50:45.239 --> 01:50:50.039
and Mayory, so maybe his films
needed to be released. Well, once

1441
01:50:50.039 --> 01:50:55.439
we're complete, we can just just
be done for it then and then then

1442
01:50:55.479 --> 01:51:02.039
they'll start releasing him on four K
or something. But then this month,

1443
01:51:02.279 --> 01:51:12.319
OCN dis Distributions is putting out eleven
different partner labels releases eleven, so let's

1444
01:51:12.359 --> 01:51:15.640
break them all down. First,
one is from Saturn's Core Audio and Video.

1445
01:51:15.760 --> 01:51:20.760
This one is Backwoods Marcie from nineteen
ninety eight, and a lot of

1446
01:51:20.800 --> 01:51:26.479
people are looking down on this one, but it's also kind of a unique

1447
01:51:26.520 --> 01:51:30.079
and important title. This is the
front of the slip, and then here

1448
01:51:30.159 --> 01:51:34.239
is the back that says she's homeless
and hungry for sex, blood and revenge.

1449
01:51:35.560 --> 01:51:40.239
So this one. A wrong turn
during a business trip leads an unsuspecting

1450
01:51:40.279 --> 01:51:44.399
yuppie down a perilous road of terror
after he foolishly runs a foul of Marsi,

1451
01:51:44.840 --> 01:51:48.079
a psychotic redneck homeless woman who dwells
deep in the ominous swamp lands of

1452
01:51:48.079 --> 01:51:55.039
the New Jersey Pine barrens. After
excuse me. After capturing him and caging

1453
01:51:55.119 --> 01:51:59.760
him like an animal, the depraved
Marcie methodically tortures and rapes her helpless male

1454
01:51:59.800 --> 01:52:03.359
cap Upon his escape, a savage
fight to the death ensues, where only

1455
01:52:03.399 --> 01:52:08.039
the most cunning of the two will
survive. Now the reason that it's looked

1456
01:52:08.039 --> 01:52:11.279
at is important, they say in
their copy. Here. One of the

1457
01:52:11.319 --> 01:52:15.159
few shot on video movies in history
to be helmed by a woman, Backwoods

1458
01:52:15.159 --> 01:52:18.239
Marsie was written, produced, scored, and directed by actress turn filmmaker Don

1459
01:52:18.319 --> 01:52:23.560
Murphy, who also turns in a
tour to force acting performance and a dual

1460
01:52:23.640 --> 01:52:27.840
role that earned her a Best Actress
nomination at the nineteen ninety nine b Movie

1461
01:52:27.880 --> 01:52:34.039
Awards. Let's See This is a
long sought after, strangely feminist nineties arrow

1462
01:52:34.199 --> 01:52:39.600
shot on video horror epic, newly
uncovered and restored from the vaults of the

1463
01:52:39.640 --> 01:52:44.720
infamous South Jersey based studio Sharky Video. As an added bonus backwards, Marcie

1464
01:52:44.760 --> 01:52:48.920
now comes paired with another Sharky Video, Kurio writer director Dave Castilioni's nineteen ninety

1465
01:52:48.920 --> 01:52:55.359
five brain melting holiday themed shot on
video comedy An Ex Hooker's Christmas Carol.

1466
01:52:57.159 --> 01:53:00.399
So this has a whole bunch of
special feature and it is a double feature

1467
01:53:00.439 --> 01:53:09.039
title. But Saturn's Core, Like
most people are very anti Saturn's Core because

1468
01:53:09.159 --> 01:53:13.720
they're anti shot on video. So
what do you think? I think?

1469
01:53:13.960 --> 01:53:18.600
Okay, two things. When we
were talking one of the we had this

1470
01:53:18.680 --> 01:53:21.920
brief discussion about like, are there
any of the partner labels that we're not

1471
01:53:21.960 --> 01:53:28.159
buying anymore or whatever, And Saturn's
Core was one of my answers. But

1472
01:53:28.359 --> 01:53:32.439
then they these titles that they're releasing
now actually kind of keep drawing me in.

1473
01:53:32.880 --> 01:53:36.319
I do like shot on Video stuff
to a certain extent. I think

1474
01:53:36.319 --> 01:53:41.039
there's some cool storytelling coming from that, and I'm going to give them a

1475
01:53:41.079 --> 01:53:46.560
shot. I just got in my
February stuff and this one was super enticing

1476
01:53:46.560 --> 01:53:49.800
to me. From Saturn's core,
Red Skirt Lake and then we Await was

1477
01:53:49.840 --> 01:53:55.560
on the other side, and yeah, this release looks incredible and it sounds

1478
01:53:55.600 --> 01:53:59.800
like perfect for my taste. I
think that you know, they had the

1479
01:53:59.840 --> 01:54:04.520
one it was what was it called
Duck anyways, one of their releases was

1480
01:54:04.520 --> 01:54:09.359
the movie that was about the Columbine
massacre. But it was like this weird,

1481
01:54:09.439 --> 01:54:12.119
kind of like super dark comedy about
these two kids that go in and

1482
01:54:12.119 --> 01:54:15.359
shoot up schools. It felt like
it was in very poor taste. Was

1483
01:54:15.399 --> 01:54:23.159
that the was that Saturn core?
Yeah? It was. And uh,

1484
01:54:24.119 --> 01:54:28.680
It's like it seems to me like
maybe kind of their identity is becoming these

1485
01:54:28.720 --> 01:54:33.079
movies that are shocking from a cultural
standpoint, Like they're going and finding these

1486
01:54:33.079 --> 01:54:39.039
things that are sort of like jarring
culturally, and typically the people that the

1487
01:54:39.119 --> 01:54:42.840
financing for those is not coming through
studios because who's gonna make Like which studio

1488
01:54:42.920 --> 01:54:45.680
is going to make Duck? The
Carbine school and massacre? Like six months

1489
01:54:45.720 --> 01:54:51.000
after Columbine. Yeah, so that's
intriguing to me, Like I want to

1490
01:54:51.000 --> 01:54:55.560
give them another shot and just kind
of see because I kind of like,

1491
01:54:55.600 --> 01:54:57.920
I guess maybe like the spirit behind
that it feels kind of punk rock,

1492
01:54:58.000 --> 01:55:01.439
Like I'm into it. I really
love the documentary they did on Wave.

1493
01:55:02.920 --> 01:55:05.359
Oh I haven't seen it, Okay, I'll check it out. I think

1494
01:55:05.359 --> 01:55:13.199
that was their first release. Actually
on which movie it is? The Wave?

1495
01:55:13.279 --> 01:55:15.960
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Waves. Yeah. I'm sorry, yes,

1496
01:55:15.079 --> 01:55:18.960
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that was great. I'm sorry

1497
01:55:19.359 --> 01:55:23.479
Mail Order Murder that's what it was
called. No, I just yeah,

1498
01:55:23.520 --> 01:55:25.520
yeah, no, yeah, I'm
sorry, I didn't hear you. Right.

1499
01:55:25.920 --> 01:55:30.079
Yeah, they did a great job
with that for sure. But also

1500
01:55:30.119 --> 01:55:32.239
I wanted to say, it's interesting
on this like feminist kind of thing.

1501
01:55:33.279 --> 01:55:39.119
What was the movie that they just
released through Vinegar Syndrome Pictures, The Scary

1502
01:55:39.119 --> 01:55:42.439
of sixty First. Yep, that's
another one. It's like written by a

1503
01:55:42.479 --> 01:55:46.880
woman, directed by a woman,
starring women. Crazy, Like that movie

1504
01:55:47.000 --> 01:55:51.439
is insane, Like I hate to
say, like I couldn't believe it was

1505
01:55:51.479 --> 01:55:55.960
made by a woman because it's not
really fair. But like I just I'm

1506
01:55:56.079 --> 01:56:00.640
happy that women that are making those
types of movies are now getting press and

1507
01:56:00.680 --> 01:56:06.359
getting attention because they're crazy genre movies
that are like you would like expect to

1508
01:56:06.359 --> 01:56:10.520
be from a man historically, and
so I'm really happy these voices are coming

1509
01:56:10.600 --> 01:56:13.960
up. And the cooler thing for
me is that one is a very modern

1510
01:56:14.000 --> 01:56:17.600
movie that was just made and it's
very rooted modern times. It's all about

1511
01:56:17.960 --> 01:56:23.319
Jeffrey Epstein. So it's an interesting
one. I just watched that one recently.

1512
01:56:24.479 --> 01:56:30.239
Yeah, it's wild. Next up, from this cover art still from

1513
01:56:30.359 --> 01:56:39.079
Factory twenty five, we are getting
Hellaware from twenty fourteen. Helloware gently satirizes

1514
01:56:39.119 --> 01:56:43.800
the world of highbrow art through the
eyes of a wannabe photographer who becomes consumed

1515
01:56:43.880 --> 01:56:47.840
by the bright lights of mainstream success. Jaded by the incestuous New York socialite

1516
01:56:47.840 --> 01:56:51.840
shit that sells at prominent art galleries, Nate embarks on a quest for a

1517
01:56:51.880 --> 01:56:57.439
more authentic brand of contemporary art.
When a coked up YouTube search leads to

1518
01:56:57.479 --> 01:57:03.279
a music video from delawarean goth rap
young torture killers, an insane clown posse

1519
01:57:03.439 --> 01:57:09.000
knockoff, Nate knows he's found his
subjects. He soon drags his friends with

1520
01:57:09.039 --> 01:57:13.920
benefits Bernadette, to rural Delaware to
shoot the group playing in their parents' basement

1521
01:57:14.319 --> 01:57:17.000
to immerse himself in the group's culture
and add an extra layer of realism to

1522
01:57:17.039 --> 01:57:20.720
his work. Nate befriends the rappers
and makes return trips to get to know

1523
01:57:20.800 --> 01:57:27.000
them, but as his relationship with
the group develops, he becomes increasingly aware

1524
01:57:27.039 --> 01:57:29.760
that while you can take the boy
out of the art world, you can't

1525
01:57:29.760 --> 01:57:33.039
take the art world out of the
boy. You know the album from that

1526
01:57:33.159 --> 01:57:39.319
rap group, Do you know what
it's cost which one the young Torture kill

1527
01:57:39.439 --> 01:57:44.079
is. Oh no, it's called
I'll Cut Your Dick Off. Oh yeah,

1528
01:57:44.600 --> 01:57:45.960
yeah. They're putting that out on
vinyl. That's the best part.

1529
01:57:47.399 --> 01:57:49.960
So that is the front of the
slip. Here's the back to show I'll

1530
01:57:50.000 --> 01:57:56.000
Cut your dick Off. This is
hilarious. The big thing for me that

1531
01:57:56.520 --> 01:58:00.680
I love about this is it's seventy
three minutes long. Yeah right, Oh,

1532
01:58:00.880 --> 01:58:04.159
Zach, I love Revenge. Zach
brought up Revenge from twenty seventeen fits

1533
01:58:04.159 --> 01:58:08.800
that criteria as well. Shot by
a woman, a very feminist type of

1534
01:58:08.840 --> 01:58:13.960
movie. Revenge is incredible. Yeah. Yeah, so this one is getting

1535
01:58:14.119 --> 01:58:17.279
It's a region pre blu ray deleted
and extended scenes behind the scenes of helloware,

1536
01:58:17.800 --> 01:58:21.600
commentary with a few people on it, a trailer music video for I'll

1537
01:58:21.600 --> 01:58:26.319
Cut You dick Off, and then
a twenty four page booklet with a foreword

1538
01:58:26.399 --> 01:58:31.760
by a Belle Ferrara, essays by
Nick Pinkerton, Michael Chaikin Chaikin, Sean

1539
01:58:31.800 --> 01:58:36.439
Price Williams, and Michael m by
Landick. Ye, that's that's impressive.

1540
01:58:36.439 --> 01:58:41.720
Actually, Yeah, for a title
that has I'll cut You dick Off on

1541
01:58:41.800 --> 01:58:45.640
the back of it, careers connection
to this, that's crazy. I have

1542
01:58:45.760 --> 01:58:53.960
no idea. Huh. Next up, though, The Long Walk from Yellow

1543
01:58:54.039 --> 01:58:57.680
Veil Pictures. This is a twenty
nineteen film. An elderly man who has

1544
01:58:57.680 --> 01:59:00.760
the power to time travel thanks to
a mysterious companion whose death he witnessed,

1545
01:59:01.119 --> 01:59:05.359
decides to trespass into his own past
and set in motion a plan to prevent

1546
01:59:05.439 --> 01:59:10.960
his mother's suffering and appease his soul. This is the front of the slip

1547
01:59:11.039 --> 01:59:15.399
and here is the back. Well, anything about this one intrigue you?

1548
01:59:16.279 --> 01:59:21.079
Well? So I got to see
Knocking from this from this company and it

1549
01:59:21.159 --> 01:59:25.239
was great, Like, I mean, it was simple, maybe not great,

1550
01:59:25.239 --> 01:59:27.079
it was good. It was a
good, solid, like three out

1551
01:59:27.119 --> 01:59:31.359
of five or three like it was
good. And they they seem to have

1552
01:59:31.520 --> 01:59:35.279
a beautiful art designer for like their
cover work. I don't know who they

1553
01:59:35.319 --> 01:59:40.640
work with, but they're very like
elegant and sort of like artistic with their

1554
01:59:40.640 --> 01:59:44.479
cover art. So what we were
just talking about, Yellow Veil, what

1555
01:59:44.520 --> 01:59:47.079
title was that from? Where they're
putting out a title luxA Turna from gas

1556
01:59:47.119 --> 01:59:53.920
Renault of course. Yeah. Yeah, John in the comment says, this

1557
01:59:53.960 --> 01:59:56.920
sounds like the most interesting partner release
this month, with lux Aturna on the

1558
01:59:56.960 --> 02:00:00.960
horizon. It looks like Yellow All's
emerging as my favorite partner. Yeah,

1559
02:00:00.079 --> 02:00:05.039
John, I agree, that's I
don't know about Yeah, I don't a

1560
02:00:05.039 --> 02:00:09.640
favorite, but certainly like I want
to see the things they put out,

1561
02:00:09.840 --> 02:00:14.520
and that's like I trust them a
lot. I agree there. And then

1562
02:00:14.840 --> 02:00:18.560
on top of that, I always
have loved time travel movies. Yeah,

1563
02:00:18.680 --> 02:00:23.079
So that alone is as soon as
I read that, I was I'm in

1564
02:00:23.359 --> 02:00:32.119
immediately the Long Walk. Next up
from Canny releasing Ode to Nothing from twenty

1565
02:00:32.239 --> 02:00:40.800
eighteen. Dwayne Reides Baltasar's Owed to
Nothing is a powerful meditation on our universal

1566
02:00:40.840 --> 02:00:46.560
longing for connection and increasingly precarious,
uncertain, and isolated times. The intellectibility

1567
02:00:46.600 --> 02:00:54.279
and omnipresence of death is given form
here in an uncanny cohabitation with destitute itself

1568
02:00:54.520 --> 02:00:58.159
and what amounts to one of the
most captivating art horror hybrids to emerge from

1569
02:00:58.199 --> 02:01:01.279
the Philippines in recent years. A
Best Picture, Best Director, and Best

1570
02:01:01.279 --> 02:01:08.920
Screenplay award given at Quaison City's influential
Q Cinema Festival, highlighting new Filipino cinema.

1571
02:01:09.159 --> 02:01:13.840
Ode to Nothing unfolds in a languid
and hypnotic manner. Every careful shot

1572
02:01:13.880 --> 02:01:19.159
oozing with the palpable texture of rot, humidity and crushing loneliness, sounds like

1573
02:01:19.199 --> 02:01:25.000
a light watch. And looking at
the art here, it's gonna be a

1574
02:01:25.119 --> 02:01:29.840
very vibrant setting too. Canon Abel
from them was that Philippines as well?

1575
02:01:30.880 --> 02:01:35.359
Uh? I think so yeah,
Manila okay? So being natural though was

1576
02:01:35.600 --> 02:01:41.520
not right being natural to z.
I feel like that was Thai or something

1577
02:01:41.560 --> 02:01:48.119
like that. Japan. So I'm
just I didn't know either. I was

1578
02:01:48.119 --> 02:01:50.600
just looking at there. So they
have Japan and then two for the Philippines,

1579
02:01:51.000 --> 02:01:55.239
I mean three cheers for Khannie.
They I love these guys so far,

1580
02:01:55.920 --> 02:01:58.640
Like this is the thing I like. I think we can't talk about

1581
02:01:58.680 --> 02:02:01.239
this before, but the fact that
you can go to Vinegar Syndrome and buy

1582
02:02:01.279 --> 02:02:05.199
these kind of movies feels like cheating
somehow. Yep, I love it.

1583
02:02:06.479 --> 02:02:11.239
I will say when I first read
this, this sounded to me, and

1584
02:02:11.399 --> 02:02:13.600
this is going to be a weird
word to use, and I know that,

1585
02:02:13.680 --> 02:02:16.319
and I apologize in advance, but
this sounds to me like a palate

1586
02:02:16.399 --> 02:02:21.000
cleanser. And the way I say
that is because for me and I actually

1587
02:02:21.039 --> 02:02:26.399
I talked about this with a couple
of people this week. Oddly, I

1588
02:02:26.439 --> 02:02:29.720
feel like there are certain movies that
if you are in the wrong mood when

1589
02:02:29.760 --> 02:02:33.520
you watch them, you will hate
the movie. Ok And there are certain

1590
02:02:33.560 --> 02:02:39.279
things that if you are stuck watching
I won't just use like a broad term

1591
02:02:39.359 --> 02:02:43.000
like happy films, but things that
are you know, say, like your

1592
02:02:43.039 --> 02:02:46.800
favorite genre for like ten films in
a row. It really works to do

1593
02:02:46.840 --> 02:02:50.880
that and then dive into something like
this that is going to make you sink

1594
02:02:51.000 --> 02:02:56.640
into your emotions and then really appreciate
the story they're trying to tell. Yeah,

1595
02:02:56.720 --> 02:03:00.560
yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay. I think I so. One

1596
02:03:00.560 --> 02:03:04.359
of the things I do like other
than genre movies, I'm trying to go

1597
02:03:04.479 --> 02:03:09.720
back and like watch a lot of
these art house films that I missed or

1598
02:03:09.720 --> 02:03:13.279
whatever. So like every year I
try to pick like one big director and

1599
02:03:13.319 --> 02:03:15.760
the one I'm doing this year is
one kar Wai and like last year was

1600
02:03:15.760 --> 02:03:19.520
Felini and like in so those are
like the I kind of call these like

1601
02:03:19.520 --> 02:03:24.000
the challengers, right, And then
for me, the palate cleanser is like

1602
02:03:24.359 --> 02:03:28.039
Action USA or like something like silly
that I can just like turn my mind

1603
02:03:28.039 --> 02:03:30.560
off too. But even though I
think we're using different vocabulary, like the

1604
02:03:30.600 --> 02:03:33.840
sentiment like I'm right there with you, like you have to have I have

1605
02:03:33.920 --> 02:03:38.520
to have both, Like I can't
watch like Billy Banks movies like back to

1606
02:03:38.560 --> 02:03:41.760
back to back, like I need
to mix it. Yeah, And that's

1607
02:03:41.800 --> 02:03:45.199
why I look at it, I
guess more as a mood cleanser. There.

1608
02:03:45.399 --> 02:03:50.199
I can't watch you know, victorious
rocky uh sports films for four day

1609
02:03:50.239 --> 02:03:54.479
straight and then feel like, oh, We're all victorious and everything's great,

1610
02:03:54.800 --> 02:03:58.600
because then after that I want to
dive into something like this and just really

1611
02:03:59.319 --> 02:04:03.079
sync to the floor with this depressive
state and really just languish in that.

1612
02:04:03.159 --> 02:04:08.520
But then after that, sure I
can watch a romantic comedy from two thousand

1613
02:04:08.520 --> 02:04:13.960
and five and love it and that
that makes sense. Yeah, Justin says

1614
02:04:13.960 --> 02:04:18.079
it looks like a foreign bleak Swiss
army man. Okay, that's awesome,

1615
02:04:19.439 --> 02:04:23.720
and then also says this is my
most anticipated this month. The trailer wowed

1616
02:04:23.760 --> 02:04:28.800
me. I also wanted to point
out John says I also randomly watched a

1617
02:04:28.840 --> 02:04:32.239
twenty twenty two film from Yellow Veil
on Shutter called Hellbender. Shutter's been advertising

1618
02:04:32.239 --> 02:04:36.079
the hell out of this film micro
budget folkrps. Again, we just talked

1619
02:04:36.079 --> 02:04:39.640
about that. That comes from the
same guys who did The Deeper You Dig,

1620
02:04:40.039 --> 02:04:43.800
which is a family. It is
a husband and wife and daughter.

1621
02:04:43.880 --> 02:04:46.600
I believe that all work together.
And he says he'd recommend Some people seem

1622
02:04:46.640 --> 02:04:50.680
to hate Hellbender so far, but
it's just very divisive. I would certainly

1623
02:04:51.039 --> 02:04:55.199
look into Hellbender and that we're probably
gonna get a discrelease of that eventually from

1624
02:04:55.319 --> 02:05:02.840
Yellow Veale. Next up from Canadian
International Pictures, we are getting the other

1625
02:05:03.039 --> 02:05:10.640
French New Wave Volume one. And
what's interesting here is when they put out

1626
02:05:10.680 --> 02:05:16.000
their copy, they put a little
I might say teaser. I think it

1627
02:05:16.000 --> 02:05:18.640
was an accident, but we'll talk
about that in a second. This is

1628
02:05:18.840 --> 02:05:25.479
three trailblazing classics from the dawn of
Quebec's cinematic revolution. Here is the front

1629
02:05:25.600 --> 02:05:28.720
of the slip, which I adore
the slip. I think this is a

1630
02:05:28.760 --> 02:05:31.840
really well designed slip. And then
this is the back with the three titles

1631
02:05:31.840 --> 02:05:35.439
that we're getting here, so we
have the cat in the bag. On

1632
02:05:35.520 --> 02:05:40.359
the cusp of adulthood, Claude loses
faith in society and commits to a state

1633
02:05:40.399 --> 02:05:44.199
of revolt which strains his relationship with
Barbara and leads him on a path to

1634
02:05:44.279 --> 02:05:51.560
isolation. Featuring an original score by
jazz legend John Coltrane. I don't know

1635
02:05:51.600 --> 02:05:58.279
how to say this name. Giles
Gruhles Experiment in Spontaneous Cinema is a timeless

1636
02:05:58.319 --> 02:06:03.119
exploration of youthful dissolution that brought new
audacity to Quebec cinema. And then the

1637
02:06:03.199 --> 02:06:09.439
second feature, The Merry World of
Leopold Z. On Christmas Eve, snowplow

1638
02:06:09.520 --> 02:06:13.760
driver Leo races to clear the streets
of Montreal and complete his holiday shopping and

1639
02:06:13.800 --> 02:06:17.680
time for midnight Mass. The feature
directorial debut of celebrated filmmaker Giles Carl The

1640
02:06:17.720 --> 02:06:24.119
Merryworld of leopold Z is an offbeat
holiday treat that builds to a disarmingly resonant

1641
02:06:24.159 --> 02:06:28.399
conclusion and then the third and final
feature, Yule eight seven to one,

1642
02:06:28.560 --> 02:06:31.760
During a weekend visit to Montreal,
a Parisian engineer has a romantic fling,

1643
02:06:32.119 --> 02:06:38.159
befriends a young girl, and rethinks
his war fractured past while navigating an unfamiliar

1644
02:06:38.199 --> 02:06:43.640
new world. An early breakthrough for
prolific auteur Jacques Gudbaut. Yule eight seven

1645
02:06:43.640 --> 02:06:47.920
to one is an artfully directed,
deceptively breezy convergence of cultures. So there

1646
02:06:48.039 --> 02:06:53.520
is all kinds of like short films
and featurettes and all kinds of extras here,

1647
02:06:53.520 --> 02:07:00.399
but the cool thing at the bottom. They accidentally included English SDH subtitles

1648
02:07:00.439 --> 02:07:04.760
for all nine films, so I'm
willing to bet we are going to get

1649
02:07:04.920 --> 02:07:11.880
three of these releases. This is
labeled as French New Wave Volume one,

1650
02:07:12.439 --> 02:07:19.039
we are likely getting a volume two
and three. Those sneaky bastards, I

1651
02:07:19.119 --> 02:07:24.479
have to I'm gonna be totally honest. I don't have a strong passion for

1652
02:07:25.800 --> 02:07:30.520
the Canadian New Way. I'll give
these films a shot, though, like

1653
02:07:30.600 --> 02:07:34.319
it, I'll be interested to see
it. Beautiful cover design it is.

1654
02:07:34.520 --> 02:07:40.680
And the only reason that I am
kind of very interested in it is because

1655
02:07:40.800 --> 02:07:45.640
I really respect Justin the Clue who
does gold Ninja video, and he has

1656
02:07:45.760 --> 02:07:55.439
been completely hyping up everything because he
is a Canadian native and completely just in

1657
02:07:55.479 --> 02:08:00.239
love with what they are releasing through
these labels right now. So coming from

1658
02:08:00.239 --> 02:08:05.439
Canada, he is all about this. All right, Oh, Justin,

1659
02:08:05.479 --> 02:08:07.760
you might be right, he says. I think they're talking about the shorts

1660
02:08:07.800 --> 02:08:11.920
that are included. Yeah, those
sneaky bastards that could be true on two,

1661
02:08:13.359 --> 02:08:18.079
three, four or five six,
and then the three main Yeah,

1662
02:08:18.159 --> 02:08:24.039
you might be right, damn it. Justin John says, it's fascinating that

1663
02:08:24.079 --> 02:08:26.640
we can purchase this from the same
website I bought Tracula Suck from the last

1664
02:08:26.680 --> 02:08:35.199
month. What a great way to
juxtapose that. Next up, we are

1665
02:08:35.239 --> 02:08:43.720
getting Pathogen from AGFA. Here is
the back of that slip and conceived when

1666
02:08:43.760 --> 02:08:50.720
filmmaker Emily Hoggins was twelve years old
and released when she was only fifteen fifteen,

1667
02:08:52.439 --> 02:08:56.119
Pathogen is one of the most accomplished
horror movies ever made by a person

1668
02:08:56.479 --> 02:09:01.920
before they could legally drive a car. A mysterious technology has transformed the residents

1669
02:09:01.920 --> 02:09:05.399
of Austin, Texas into flesh craving
zombies armed with a knife and axe and

1670
02:09:05.479 --> 02:09:09.479
many pairs of flip flops. Middle
schooler Danny and her peewee zombie Squad take

1671
02:09:09.520 --> 02:09:13.920
to the streets to battle undead parents, teens, and even a toddler.

1672
02:09:15.319 --> 02:09:20.520
With an impressive devotion to editing a
storytelling, Pathogen delivers eyeball gouging decapitations and

1673
02:09:20.640 --> 02:09:24.359
knife fights, along with an endearing
perspective that could only originate from a teenager.

1674
02:09:24.880 --> 02:09:28.479
Ag fun Bleeding School are overjoyed to
give Pathogen its first ever wide release,

1675
02:09:28.560 --> 02:09:33.000
complete with Zombie Girl the Movie,
a feature length documentary about the making

1676
02:09:33.159 --> 02:09:43.720
of the movie. I love Actus
so much. I just spoke to them

1677
02:09:43.800 --> 02:09:46.680
yesterday, So the episode will come
out in like a month. Nice,

1678
02:09:46.720 --> 02:09:52.039
they're gonna go they're doing seventeen total
titles this year. Wow. And next

1679
02:09:52.079 --> 02:09:56.439
year they're gonna be like, I
don't know, they're a little bit vague,

1680
02:09:56.640 --> 02:09:58.520
but like they're ramping up in a
big way, Like they're gonna start

1681
02:09:58.560 --> 02:10:05.560
putting out of a lot of movies
interesting, and I just I don't know.

1682
02:10:05.640 --> 02:10:09.800
They're the nicest, most like down
to earth people. They're totally geeks,

1683
02:10:09.840 --> 02:10:11.640
like in the most endearing, like
loving way. I mean that,

1684
02:10:13.479 --> 02:10:16.600
and like, I just want to
support these guys. I don't know.

1685
02:10:16.840 --> 02:10:20.840
I love. Yeah, I'm a
big fan of ACABA. They are great,

1686
02:10:20.880 --> 02:10:26.239
important people. I will say I
have not loved most of their output.

1687
02:10:28.560 --> 02:10:33.880
Go ahead, have you seen bat
Pussy? I have not finished it.

1688
02:10:37.000 --> 02:10:39.199
Oh man, that movie. I
was like, that's one of my

1689
02:10:39.239 --> 02:10:45.960
favorite movies. Now, I like
so hard at that movie. I have

1690
02:10:46.039 --> 02:10:48.760
weird tastes though, so I'm not
going to defend it. It's a crazy

1691
02:10:48.840 --> 02:10:52.760
movie. But I love a lot
of what they've done. Scary movie is

1692
02:10:52.800 --> 02:10:58.199
really good. Captain Alex obviously is
a classic for a reason. There are

1693
02:10:58.680 --> 02:11:01.279
the horror trailer show that they did
was great. The scare films that they

1694
02:11:01.319 --> 02:11:07.520
did are just amazing. To dive
back into time through that, there's a

1695
02:11:07.520 --> 02:11:11.439
lot of really great stuff. And
the important thing is that they are an

1696
02:11:11.520 --> 02:11:16.960
archive first and foremost. Literally it's
in their name and I will throw out

1697
02:11:16.000 --> 02:11:22.239
again for those that don't know,
AGFA is literally a non profit. If

1698
02:11:22.279 --> 02:11:26.560
you go on to Amazon right now
and you go on Amazon Smile, you

1699
02:11:26.640 --> 02:11:31.000
can set them as the organization that
makes money when you shop on Amazon.

1700
02:11:31.399 --> 02:11:33.880
I don't even like. I try
not shop on Amazon, but when I

1701
02:11:33.920 --> 02:11:37.560
do, four percent of what I
get goes to AGFA, because I'm trying

1702
02:11:37.560 --> 02:11:43.199
to support them, because they deserve
it. Sword in the Clause one I

1703
02:11:43.199 --> 02:11:52.600
would recommend anybody watch too. Sword
in the Clause A decent one. Next

1704
02:11:52.680 --> 02:11:56.840
up in one of the most intriguing
looking slips that I've seen in quite some

1705
02:11:56.920 --> 02:12:03.600
time on here. This is coming
from Collective Project Space thirteen from twenty twenty

1706
02:12:03.640 --> 02:12:07.800
one. An emerging performance artist finally
gets a coveted show at a Manhattan gallery,

1707
02:12:07.880 --> 02:12:13.319
but right as he begins his durational, provocative piece, the entire city

1708
02:12:13.359 --> 02:12:16.680
shuts down for COVID nineteen. Unswayed, he locks himself in a white cube

1709
02:12:16.680 --> 02:12:26.359
space to continue his performance from an
for an audience of none. Yeah,

1710
02:12:26.399 --> 02:12:31.560
honestly, I don't know that I
am eager to watch films with COVID nineteen

1711
02:12:31.600 --> 02:12:35.880
as a plot point in it.
Yet we are still very much in the

1712
02:12:35.880 --> 02:12:41.000
throes of it, and I'm not
super stoked to get that as a plot

1713
02:12:41.039 --> 02:12:45.560
device yet. But Circle Collective genuinely
has done really good work so far.

1714
02:12:45.800 --> 02:12:50.960
I gotta be honest, and this
has a conversation with Theodore. There's a

1715
02:12:50.039 --> 02:12:54.159
handful of people trailer opening weekend Q
and As from Roxy Cinema with the cast

1716
02:12:54.199 --> 02:12:58.199
and crew. And then this is
the front of the slip and this is

1717
02:12:58.479 --> 02:13:03.840
the bat. There's a tidy Utopia. I don't know what it is.

1718
02:13:03.000 --> 02:13:07.079
There's like it's like they're all kind
of part of the similar group or something.

1719
02:13:07.439 --> 02:13:13.920
It all feels very New York art. Yeah, and not not just

1720
02:13:13.960 --> 02:13:16.680
because of this title, but legitimately
a lot of the stuff they put out,

1721
02:13:16.680 --> 02:13:24.199
like uh uhia, yes, Donni's
bar mitzvah, the the documentary they

1722
02:13:24.199 --> 02:13:28.159
did of the New York artist.
There's all kinds of stuff that Utopia has

1723
02:13:28.159 --> 02:13:33.000
done. Yes, very very similar. Oh sorry, Utopia is very much

1724
02:13:33.039 --> 02:13:37.880
New York. Yes, Martha,
It's one of my favorite movies last year.

1725
02:13:37.239 --> 02:13:41.159
So the woman who followed Martha draws
a picture yep, or takes a

1726
02:13:41.159 --> 02:13:43.680
picture or something like that, the
one where she follows graffiti arts around and

1727
02:13:43.680 --> 02:13:48.600
stuff. It's amazing. But these
guys put out assholes. Which was it

1728
02:13:48.680 --> 02:13:52.880
stars the same woman that then went
on to do that Scary sixty first.

1729
02:13:52.920 --> 02:13:56.479
She's an intense actress yep, and
did well in Scary of sixty first.

1730
02:13:56.760 --> 02:14:03.279
Yeah, Yeah, that was a
tough role, but this might be the

1731
02:14:03.279 --> 02:14:07.079
one that I am most excited about
for this month. I am stoked to

1732
02:14:07.159 --> 02:14:11.760
say that Enjoy the Ride Records is
putting out Scream Queen. Scream Queen my

1733
02:14:11.840 --> 02:14:16.000
Name Maaron elm Street sets the record
straight about the controversial sequel to A Nightmare

1734
02:14:16.000 --> 02:14:18.680
on Elm Street, which ended Mark
Patten's acting career just as it was about

1735
02:14:18.720 --> 02:14:22.760
to begin. Scream Queen follows Patton
as he travels to WHRR conventions across the

1736
02:14:22.880 --> 02:14:26.239
US, each new city and wraps
a chapter from his life that has met

1737
02:14:26.239 --> 02:14:31.600
with equal parts joyful and bittersweet detail
as he attempts to make peace with this

1738
02:14:31.680 --> 02:14:37.159
past and embrace his legacy as cinema's
first male Scream Queen. Scream Queen also

1739
02:14:37.159 --> 02:14:41.960
finds Patton confronting Freddy's Revenge cast and
crew for the first time ever, including

1740
02:14:41.960 --> 02:14:45.680
co stars Robert Rustler, Kim Myers, and Klu Gallagher, as well as

1741
02:14:45.680 --> 02:14:50.119
Freddie himself Robert England. This is
a pretty big documentary that got released in

1742
02:14:50.159 --> 02:14:56.720
twenty nineteen but had not gotten a
Blu Ray release until now, and I

1743
02:14:56.960 --> 02:15:01.239
am very, very excited that this
is going to be finally in the hands

1744
02:15:01.279 --> 02:15:07.000
of a lot more people. Where
did you see it? Well, I've

1745
02:15:07.000 --> 02:15:11.920
got the DVD release of it first
of all. Okay, definitely giving that

1746
02:15:11.000 --> 02:15:16.479
away now. But yeah, this
I think it was also streaming maybe on

1747
02:15:16.560 --> 02:15:22.239
shutter momentarily. Okay, that's cool
somewhere. Yeah, I can't figure out

1748
02:15:22.239 --> 02:15:28.159
etr. They're all over the place, but the movies yep. And then

1749
02:15:28.239 --> 02:15:31.600
a very bright pink slip cover on
this one, and then all kinds of

1750
02:15:31.720 --> 02:15:37.039
pretty cool uh extras here we have
Mark Patten, Roman, Chimmy Anti and

1751
02:15:37.119 --> 02:15:41.279
Tyler Jensen audio commentary, an alt
opening for it called The Psychic, a

1752
02:15:41.359 --> 02:15:46.920
look at horror genre studies with doctor
andrew S Cahill, called The Monster Is

1753
02:15:46.039 --> 02:15:50.560
Queer, a tribute to Wes Craven
by Mark Patten, and then an extended

1754
02:15:50.600 --> 02:15:56.319
fireside chat with the cast of Freddy's
Revenge, Backstage with Screen Queen Femininity and

1755
02:15:56.399 --> 02:16:00.319
the Horror film a discussion, and
then a booklet is also included with an

1756
02:16:00.399 --> 02:16:05.000
essay by BJ colon Jello who is
I believe BJ is from another podcast.

1757
02:16:05.039 --> 02:16:09.039
She's done all kinds of stuff,
very big in the queer horse scene,

1758
02:16:13.840 --> 02:16:16.960
and it seems like, yeah,
Anthony saying, screen Queen's a great documentary,

1759
02:16:18.720 --> 02:16:20.399
a good companion piece to watch with
a Nightmare Elm Street Part two looking

1760
02:16:20.399 --> 02:16:26.680
forward to picking up. And that's
the best thing I think we watched.

1761
02:16:26.960 --> 02:16:30.479
I want to say. My wife
and I we watched the first five Nightmare

1762
02:16:30.520 --> 02:16:35.319
on Elm Streets recently something like that, and when we watched part two we

1763
02:16:35.399 --> 02:16:37.760
had a discussion afterwards. I was
like, so, what do you think

1764
02:16:37.920 --> 02:16:41.159
and just went into some of it
and how it felt so different from the

1765
02:16:41.159 --> 02:16:45.120
first one. I said, well, before we watch part three, you

1766
02:16:45.159 --> 02:16:48.840
gotta watch this documentary. So that's
when we watched it for the first time.

1767
02:16:48.239 --> 02:16:58.559
Cool. Oh okay, Culture Shock
Releasing, which is getting a whole

1768
02:16:58.600 --> 02:17:01.680
lot of press. They are putting
out Slash Dance on Blu Ray, which

1769
02:17:01.719 --> 02:17:05.959
is a film that they put out
on DVD previously and sold quite well.

1770
02:17:07.200 --> 02:17:13.319
This is from nineteen eighty nine and
this is a essentially one of the like

1771
02:17:13.200 --> 02:17:18.120
horror workout video movie things that was
a thing for a while thanks to LENEA.

1772
02:17:18.159 --> 02:17:22.520
Quickly, I assume beautiful dancers are
being brutally murdered at the Van Slake

1773
02:17:22.639 --> 02:17:26.440
Theater. Is it the Weird Brothers
who run the theater, the perverted stage

1774
02:17:26.479 --> 02:17:31.760
manager, a vengeful ghost. Bombshell
Detective Tory Rains must go undercover as a

1775
02:17:31.879 --> 02:17:35.959
dancer to find the killer or become
his next victim. This is going to

1776
02:17:35.000 --> 02:17:39.479
be region free with a bonus feature
film called Hollywood's New Blood, a full

1777
02:17:39.559 --> 02:17:43.280
length commentary with the director, a
full length commentary by Hack the Movies podcast

1778
02:17:43.719 --> 02:17:48.840
interview with actor Jay Buzz Von Ornsteiner, interview with the producer Andrew Meisner,

1779
02:17:48.920 --> 02:17:54.760
and then three minute flash dance by
Future Schlock of Everything is Terrible and yeah,

1780
02:17:54.840 --> 02:17:58.079
same art as they had on their
DVD release. And then what's cool

1781
02:17:58.280 --> 02:18:01.399
is because they also have Hollywood's new
Blood. The other side of the slip

1782
02:18:01.479 --> 02:18:09.280
is highlighting that double feature nice this
is I haven't seen this movie before,

1783
02:18:09.280 --> 02:18:11.959
but aren't these the ones that did
Hooker with the Hackslaw I think that,

1784
02:18:11.079 --> 02:18:18.040
Yeah, yeah, yes, and
Cannibal Hookers yep. Culture Shock Releasing also

1785
02:18:18.120 --> 02:18:22.399
just put out an American Scream and
then they did the big one that everybody's

1786
02:18:22.440 --> 02:18:26.159
loving so far is Girlfriend from Hell. That's right, that's right, that's

1787
02:18:26.200 --> 02:18:31.040
right. Yeah, that was then. Yeah, They're they're fun, They're

1788
02:18:31.079 --> 02:18:33.360
they're one. I want to follow
Yeah, and they are one of the

1789
02:18:33.399 --> 02:18:39.799
newest partner labels they came out with
that Canadian International Pictures that they both were

1790
02:18:39.840 --> 02:18:46.840
added recently. That's right up next, because we are still not done from

1791
02:18:48.120 --> 02:18:52.559
Altered Innocence. We are getting stop
Zemlia from twenty twenty one, hanging out

1792
02:18:52.600 --> 02:18:56.120
with friends, smoking too much,
spinning bottles and kissing, making mistakes,

1793
02:18:56.239 --> 02:19:01.120
playing, refusing to accept dreaming with
open eyes. Life as a teenager can

1794
02:19:01.159 --> 02:19:05.639
be overwhelmingly beautiful and difficult at the
same time. Introvert at high school,

1795
02:19:05.760 --> 02:19:11.040
girl Masha sees herself as an outsider
unless she's hanging out with her two best

1796
02:19:11.040 --> 02:19:16.079
friends, Yana and Senia, who
share her non conformist status. While trying

1797
02:19:16.120 --> 02:19:18.040
to navigate through her last year of
school, Masha falls in love in a

1798
02:19:18.079 --> 02:19:22.360
way that forces her out of her
comfort zone. In her debut, the

1799
02:19:22.479 --> 02:19:30.920
Ukrainian director Katerina Gornostai composes a deeply
emotional and multi layered portrait of a generation

1800
02:19:31.319 --> 02:19:37.399
whilst seamlessly flowing between the fictional and
the documental So, first off, kind

1801
02:19:37.399 --> 02:19:41.559
of hard to just let that go
without recognizing that Ukraine is literally in the

1802
02:19:41.600 --> 02:19:46.159
middle of being attacked right now.
So this might be a good time to

1803
02:19:46.520 --> 02:19:50.680
beef up on at least learning and
supporting some part of Ukrainian art. This

1804
02:19:50.760 --> 02:19:54.040
is the back of the slip says, how does your body feel when you're

1805
02:19:54.079 --> 02:19:56.280
in love? Really bad, awful, but still you need this feeling?

1806
02:19:56.680 --> 02:20:05.520
Yeah. Altered Innocence is all about
coming of age stories, queer stories,

1807
02:20:05.959 --> 02:20:11.760
and really diving into some some art
house things that are just really well made.

1808
02:20:11.959 --> 02:20:15.559
They have my favorite cover of all
the Vinegar Syndrome partner labels. Do

1809
02:20:15.559 --> 02:20:20.319
you know what just one I'm gonna
be talking about wild Boys? No,

1810
02:20:20.440 --> 02:20:22.520
it's a knife and Heart. Do
you remember that one? Uh? Yeah?

1811
02:20:22.639 --> 02:20:26.840
Yeah? Yeah. When I saw
that, I was like, man,

1812
02:20:26.840 --> 02:20:33.840
that is brilliant. It is such
a we'll say blunt to include for

1813
02:20:33.840 --> 02:20:37.440
those that don't remember, it's the
sex toy with a knife in it?

1814
02:20:37.840 --> 02:20:43.959
Yeah? What about this? Anything
you're interested in there? I have been

1815
02:20:43.079 --> 02:20:48.000
collecting Altered Innocence. They're one of
the labels I'm going to go through soon.

1816
02:20:48.520 --> 02:20:50.479
I don't think i've seen I've seen
maybe a few of their movies Death

1817
02:20:50.479 --> 02:20:56.040
of Nintendo, I saw So Long, Abillity, Sound and Furious. I've

1818
02:20:56.040 --> 02:21:01.360
seen three or four, But and
then they're putting out. Oh, they're

1819
02:21:01.399 --> 02:21:05.200
ones that put out that new Elois
Deglecia film which correct Pals, Yeah,

1820
02:21:05.319 --> 02:21:07.399
which Severn put out the rest of
it, or a lot of his other

1821
02:21:07.440 --> 02:21:11.079
stuff, right, Yes, so
yeah, I think this labels cool,

1822
02:21:11.200 --> 02:21:16.520
Like I'm intrigued by them. I
like the coming of age films and queer

1823
02:21:16.520 --> 02:21:20.040
representation is out there, so I
want to support these guys for now.

1824
02:21:20.600 --> 02:21:28.239
For sure, I think this might
be the last one. I don't want

1825
02:21:28.239 --> 02:21:31.280
to speak too ahead of myself,
but we are getting from music Box selects

1826
02:21:31.520 --> 02:21:35.840
Sybil from twenty nineteen, and I've
heard nothing but great things about this.

1827
02:21:37.639 --> 02:21:43.399
A sly, sultry character study from
filmmaker Justine Triette. Sybil follows a psychotherapist

1828
02:21:43.399 --> 02:21:46.959
who decides to quit her practice and
return to writing instead. As Sybil starts

1829
02:21:48.040 --> 02:21:52.239
dropping patients, she begins to struggle
with excess time and a lack of inspiration

1830
02:21:52.639 --> 02:21:56.079
until she gets a call from Margo, a young actress wrapped up in a

1831
02:21:56.120 --> 02:21:58.559
dramatic affair with their co star Igor, who happens to be married to the

1832
02:21:58.559 --> 02:22:03.959
film's Becoming further enmeshed in Margo's life, Sybil starts to blur past and present

1833
02:22:05.079 --> 02:22:07.840
fiction with reality, and the personal
with the professional as she begins to use

1834
02:22:07.879 --> 02:22:13.760
Margo's life as source material for her
novel. This one has a feature audio

1835
02:22:13.760 --> 02:22:18.360
commentary by Alexandra Heller Nicholas, like
I brought up earlier interviews with the director

1836
02:22:18.440 --> 02:22:22.760
and actors photo gallery. Not a
whole lot else. But this is the

1837
02:22:22.799 --> 02:22:28.399
front and this is the back of
the slip pretty classy looking slip here.

1838
02:22:30.440 --> 02:22:35.440
Yeah, no, it's it's definitely
an art house movie. Is this before

1839
02:22:35.559 --> 02:22:37.959
or after? Blue is the warmest
color? Sorry, I was trying to

1840
02:22:37.959 --> 02:22:39.319
find that out, because that's the
actress from Blue is the warmest color.

1841
02:22:39.479 --> 02:22:45.399
I believe it's after. This is
after, Okay, I believe so,

1842
02:22:45.399 --> 02:22:50.879
So this is what she's doing now
because this is twenty nineteen. Yeah,

1843
02:22:50.879 --> 02:22:56.600
it must be after. Yeah,
you're right. Cool. Yeah it looks

1844
02:22:56.639 --> 02:23:00.200
good. I mean it looks like
an arthouse film. Yeah. Yeah,

1845
02:23:00.920 --> 02:23:07.360
it could be easily be Criterion type
or whatever. So absolutely, yeah.

1846
02:23:05.799 --> 02:23:09.680
But last couple of things to cover
On Vinegar Syndrome, there was new merch

1847
02:23:09.719 --> 02:23:13.239
available and some of these have sold
out now. For Screen Queen, they

1848
02:23:13.280 --> 02:23:18.639
have the soundtrack on vinyl and on
cassette, and if you wanted Hellaware,

1849
02:23:18.959 --> 02:23:22.239
they have this gorgeous vinyl cover Young
Torture killas I'll cut your dick off,

1850
02:23:22.680 --> 02:23:30.159
and then Vinegar Syndrome is doing a
Green Saint Patrick's Day logo tee. But

1851
02:23:30.280 --> 02:23:35.000
now, what do you feel about
what Ragnar said here? I personally think

1852
02:23:35.040 --> 02:23:45.479
that there are way too many partner
labels. Okay, there's I might split

1853
02:23:45.559 --> 02:23:48.239
minded on this. There's the collector's
side of me that was enjoying supporting all

1854
02:23:48.239 --> 02:23:54.840
the partner labels, that's frustrated because
I can't keep up. Then there's the

1855
02:23:56.000 --> 02:24:01.799
side of me that like has spoken
to Craig and Dennis over at Deaf Crocodile

1856
02:24:01.879 --> 02:24:05.559
and like they're good dudes, and
like I'm happy that they get to plug

1857
02:24:05.600 --> 02:24:11.159
into a machine and like sell their
stuff. So I don't know, like

1858
02:24:11.360 --> 02:24:15.799
I feel like as the person buying
it, it's like frustrating, it's too

1859
02:24:15.840 --> 02:24:20.079
much. But if I was starting
a label right now, I would consider

1860
02:24:20.120 --> 02:24:22.159
it, even though I've heard they
take a big cut, Like it's nice

1861
02:24:22.159 --> 02:24:26.680
to be able to sell your products, right. So I don't know if

1862
02:24:26.719 --> 02:24:33.760
there's going to be a new like
competitor to MVD in the marketplace. It

1863
02:24:33.760 --> 02:24:35.159
feels like maybe they're doing a good
job with it so far. What do

1864
02:24:35.159 --> 02:24:39.799
you think? I very much in
the same frame of mind. But I

1865
02:24:39.840 --> 02:24:43.159
will also add what I believe we
talked about when you did the video with

1866
02:24:43.200 --> 02:24:46.920
me a few weeks ago. The
fact that they have so many partner labels

1867
02:24:46.959 --> 02:24:50.959
means that they literally have something that
they can appeal to everyone for. Yeah,

1868
02:24:50.000 --> 02:24:52.559
and the fact that you can go
to the website, like we just

1869
02:24:52.600 --> 02:24:58.799
said and by Dracula sucks followed by
an art house Ukrainian film is it feels

1870
02:24:58.799 --> 02:25:03.479
like magic first of all, But
second of all, it means that no

1871
02:25:03.559 --> 02:25:07.520
matter what type of person you are, even if you spend ten minutes on

1872
02:25:07.559 --> 02:25:11.760
the Vinegar Syndrome website, you can
find a film that you go you know

1873
02:25:11.760 --> 02:25:16.319
what, I kind of want to
really see this. Yeah, and yes,

1874
02:25:16.680 --> 02:25:18.120
there is a lot of partner labels. There's a lot to keep track

1875
02:25:18.159 --> 02:25:22.079
of. But at the same time, it's not made for you to collect

1876
02:25:22.120 --> 02:25:26.040
every single thing from every partner label. It is made for art to be

1877
02:25:26.120 --> 02:25:31.879
shared, for movie to be out
there and discover. And I think that

1878
02:25:31.200 --> 02:25:37.079
it is again something that I've said
on the channel way too many times.

1879
02:25:37.159 --> 02:25:41.360
Every single movie has been somebody's favorite
movie, and no matter what it deserves

1880
02:25:41.399 --> 02:25:46.399
to be handled with the most utmost
respect. Yeah, and we'll see if

1881
02:25:46.399 --> 02:25:50.159
we agree in May when they do
their halfway to like Friday so and they

1882
02:25:50.159 --> 02:25:54.479
announce five new partner labels or whatever. Right, right, I can't really

1883
02:25:54.559 --> 02:26:01.200
argue with that anything else about Vendger
Syndrome and partner label. I think that's

1884
02:26:01.239 --> 02:26:03.840
the last thing. Let me make
sure before I. Oh, no,

1885
02:26:03.920 --> 02:26:07.479
that covers them all. Yeah,
that covers them all. It's a very

1886
02:26:07.559 --> 02:26:13.879
big month and that that is seemingly
the new norm first of all, that

1887
02:26:13.159 --> 02:26:18.280
we're gonna have literally this month,
there's what four Vinegar Syndrome releases or maybe

1888
02:26:18.520 --> 02:26:24.239
yeah, four vinegaro Syndrome releases plus
eleven partner label releases. Fifteen in one

1889
02:26:24.280 --> 02:26:26.200
month is a lot and a lot
of these are double features. So it's

1890
02:26:26.200 --> 02:26:31.559
actually like twenty films. Yeah,
yeah, it's the Kino model, right,

1891
02:26:33.280 --> 02:26:35.920
But because they're coming from so many
different sources, they're getting that like

1892
02:26:35.959 --> 02:26:41.000
really high touch, high quality,
and even even Keno, who also has

1893
02:26:41.079 --> 02:26:45.319
a lot of partner labels, still
doesn't have as many as Vinegar Syndrome.

1894
02:26:45.719 --> 02:26:50.440
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's
true. I don't know. I love

1895
02:26:50.479 --> 02:26:54.120
them though, like I want them
to be very successful, and they seem

1896
02:26:54.159 --> 02:26:56.559
to be big fans of movies,
and they're seem to be doing it the

1897
02:26:56.639 --> 02:27:00.959
right way, so I'll keep supporting
them. I think we're about to talk

1898
02:27:00.959 --> 02:27:03.280
about them. But I'm having to
make choices. Like one of the companies

1899
02:27:03.280 --> 02:27:09.399
that I love a lot, but
I've stopped buying. I'm very selective with

1900
02:27:09.520 --> 02:27:15.000
the Severn because their box sets are
amazing. They're like when they do that

1901
02:27:15.040 --> 02:27:18.719
two or three discs special limited like
cases, they're they're amazing, yea,

1902
02:27:18.040 --> 02:27:22.479
and even their standard releases are fine. But like, I'm just starting to

1903
02:27:22.520 --> 02:27:26.799
have to make choices now, Like
I can't do Vinegar and Arrow and Severn

1904
02:27:26.920 --> 02:27:30.920
and Massacre and like and and and
then you know, like there's just you

1905
02:27:31.000 --> 02:27:33.920
start to make choice, and you
start to make choices. Now, I

1906
02:27:33.959 --> 02:27:39.200
agree, And speaking of Severn,
that does mean that it's time. Coming

1907
02:27:39.319 --> 02:27:41.680
on eight, what just happened?
I had to do that every single week.

1908
02:27:41.719 --> 02:27:46.200
I do it at least once.
Coming on April twenty sixth from seven

1909
02:27:46.680 --> 02:27:50.440
Marty Gras massacre from nineteen seventy eight. Probably can't show that on YouTube,

1910
02:27:50.479 --> 02:27:58.159
so maybe I should change that.
Coming from seven April twenty six this was

1911
02:27:58.200 --> 02:28:03.920
previously released us to buy code red. For those that have never seen it,

1912
02:28:03.159 --> 02:28:09.840
this is uh, it's I don't
know, have you seen Marti Giromasker?

1913
02:28:09.000 --> 02:28:15.920
First of all, yes, I
have. What do you think where

1914
02:28:15.959 --> 02:28:18.520
was the Was it an Italian movie? Where was it originally? I believe

1915
02:28:18.520 --> 02:28:26.479
so? Yeah, it is right. I think it's like, okay,

1916
02:28:26.799 --> 02:28:33.959
uh, it's a wild movie.
I think it's one that I'm trying to

1917
02:28:33.040 --> 02:28:39.239
like, I am so deep into
these kind of films, it's hard to

1918
02:28:39.239 --> 02:28:43.399
be like objective about it. Right. It's a lot of fun, and

1919
02:28:43.520 --> 02:28:46.360
I think it's one that like people
probably the people that are watching, like

1920
02:28:46.399 --> 02:28:50.159
the people that listen to this are
like also kind of deep in this world,

1921
02:28:50.360 --> 02:28:52.639
would love like. I think it's
one of those kind of musty type

1922
02:28:52.639 --> 02:28:56.959
of films from this world. If
you've never seen it, it definitely is.

1923
02:28:56.120 --> 02:28:58.719
And then not to mention, this
is going to be the best release

1924
02:28:58.760 --> 02:29:03.600
that the film will ever get,
probably so. With only five films,

1925
02:29:03.600 --> 02:29:07.120
New Orleans based writer producer director Jack
Weiss became one of the most enigmatic figures

1926
02:29:07.159 --> 02:29:11.920
in seventies exploitation, and for his
final trash piece, Weiss delivered a filth

1927
02:29:11.959 --> 02:29:18.920
field disco drenched and gore soaked epic
of butchered Hooker's hard boiled homicide cops and

1928
02:29:18.959 --> 02:29:24.639
a prissy psycho with an Aztec sacrifice
fetish that remains a once in a lifetime

1929
02:29:24.959 --> 02:29:31.040
Slee's experience. Kurt Dawson, Ronald
Tannet and February seventy five Playboy playmate Laura

1930
02:29:31.200 --> 02:29:35.760
Mish starring the shocking yet hysterical Fever
Dream of Regional Filmmaking, with a soundtrack

1931
02:29:35.840 --> 02:29:39.799
by Dennis Coffee and Mike Theodore and
still banned in the UK, is one

1932
02:29:39.799 --> 02:29:45.319
of the original DPP thirty nine video
nasties, now with a two K master

1933
02:29:45.399 --> 02:29:50.719
compiled from the best post Katrina elements
and a revealing new interview with Jack Weiss

1934
02:29:50.799 --> 02:29:58.719
himself. Yeah, gotta love the
word trash piece there, because it definitely

1935
02:29:58.760 --> 02:30:05.200
is. This is one that is. First off, I don't think it's

1936
02:30:05.239 --> 02:30:09.360
quite as gory as they make it
sound there. It's it's pretty. I

1937
02:30:09.399 --> 02:30:11.040
mean, it's a little blood heavy, I guess, but it's not like

1938
02:30:11.159 --> 02:30:15.399
gory in the way that you would
think, especially for a film from what

1939
02:30:15.520 --> 02:30:18.719
years at seventy eight and then this
has I'm not in a Hollywood interview with

1940
02:30:18.719 --> 02:30:24.360
the director, the Marty Grock Killer
interview with actor William Metso and the first

1941
02:30:24.440 --> 02:30:28.159
victim interview with actress Laura Mish,
which is kind of cool that Playboy Playmate

1942
02:30:28.200 --> 02:30:35.319
came on to do that. It's
ninety six minutes region free. It's a

1943
02:30:35.319 --> 02:30:39.040
good set. Yeah. I honestly
think if you have the Code Red you

1944
02:30:39.120 --> 02:30:46.079
probably don't need this release. But
I will say that pretty much anything is

1945
02:30:46.079 --> 02:30:48.840
going to be better than a Code
Red, So if you don't have it,

1946
02:30:48.159 --> 02:30:54.479
this is obviously the one to go
for, right. Yeah, I

1947
02:30:54.479 --> 02:30:56.520
feel like this is one of those
releases that like has a fan base.

1948
02:30:58.000 --> 02:31:01.719
Oh, it certainly does, and
it's gonna it'll sell well, which I'm

1949
02:31:01.719 --> 02:31:05.920
happy for them to. Yeah,
and the Code Red release came out years

1950
02:31:05.920 --> 02:31:09.120
ago. It is quite an old
release, so yeah, this is not

1951
02:31:09.200 --> 02:31:13.559
a shock at all. But that's
not the only thing they're releasing. Speaking

1952
02:31:13.600 --> 02:31:18.280
of Jackweis, coming on April twenty
six from Seven Films, they're releasing The

1953
02:31:18.360 --> 02:31:24.319
Big Sleezy, a Jackweis double feature
with Crypt of Dark Secrets, Crypt of

1954
02:31:24.440 --> 02:31:28.719
Dark Secrets and Death Brings Roses.
Perhaps the most bizarre film by New Orleans

1955
02:31:28.719 --> 02:31:37.200
writer, producer director Jackwiss is seventy
one minutes of supernatural Sleeze featuring voodoo vengeance,

1956
02:31:37.239 --> 02:31:41.319
a possessed swamp stripper, and multiple
feats of knuckleheaded folk horror, newly

1957
02:31:41.360 --> 02:31:46.319
mastered from the original negative thought lost
for more than thirty years. Death Brings

1958
02:31:46.399 --> 02:31:50.440
Roses is the big Easia Tours epic
of pimps, hookers, mob bosses,

1959
02:31:50.760 --> 02:31:56.600
Double Crosses, a stupefying parade of
performances by non professional locals and Henry Youngman,

1960
02:31:56.000 --> 02:32:01.120
a real life Hollywood tough guy.
Scott Brady, Broderick Crawford and Hermione

1961
02:32:01.120 --> 02:32:05.680
Gingold star in this French quarter crime
saga that walks a fine line between utter

1962
02:32:05.760 --> 02:32:11.920
hilarity and bubbling sleeve. Scannon two
K from the personal thirty five millimeter print

1963
02:32:11.959 --> 02:32:18.479
of the director yep, I mean
the cover tells you everything you need to

1964
02:32:18.520 --> 02:32:22.879
know about these two exactly. Not
going to spend a ton of time on

1965
02:32:22.920 --> 02:32:26.440
those, but one of the more
intriguing titles this month, Severn is putting

1966
02:32:26.440 --> 02:32:31.120
out Hey, Stop Stabbing Me from
two thousand and three, long before they

1967
02:32:31.159 --> 02:32:37.040
became big time Hollywood players with dorm
Days, Golan The Insatiable and Sonic The

1968
02:32:37.079 --> 02:32:41.719
Hedgehog twenty year Old producer, co
writer, director Josh Miller and producer co

1969
02:32:41.760 --> 02:32:46.079
writer star Pat Casey spent the summer
of two thousand with five hundred dollars,

1970
02:32:46.360 --> 02:32:50.799
a mini dvcam, and a group
of friends in Bloomington, Minnesota, creating

1971
02:32:50.799 --> 02:32:56.000
what remains the most insanely accomplished and
long out of print comedy horror hit of

1972
02:32:56.040 --> 02:33:01.079
the shot on video Era. It's
a deranged suburban saga of whole day serial

1973
02:33:01.159 --> 02:33:05.639
killers, nimpho girlfriends, close stealing
monsters, and lawnmower murders. That film

1974
02:33:05.639 --> 02:33:11.159
threat calls goofy and funny, with
charm despair, filled with ideas both creative

1975
02:33:11.200 --> 02:33:16.319
and bizarre. And this is an
inner vision title not Severn proud to present

1976
02:33:16.360 --> 02:33:20.559
this justifiable cult favorite, now lovingly
remastered an HD with all new reunion featurettes,

1977
02:33:20.600 --> 02:33:24.280
audio commentaries, short films, and
much more. And there is all

1978
02:33:24.360 --> 02:33:30.319
kinds of stuff including Sledgehammers at Don, a bonus feature length film which is

1979
02:33:30.360 --> 02:33:33.559
eighty three minutes, and then other
short films as well. There's all kinds

1980
02:33:33.600 --> 02:33:37.639
of stuff on this release. This
is like the best thing about Severn,

1981
02:33:37.760 --> 02:33:41.879
right. They do this as well, if not better than anybody, Like

1982
02:33:41.959 --> 02:33:46.280
their supplement Game is incredible. I
don't know how they do it with the

1983
02:33:46.319 --> 02:33:50.760
small team because I think they're actually
shoot and edit a lot of their own

1984
02:33:50.760 --> 02:33:54.760
stuff. I don't think they fimb
it out. They absolutely do. That

1985
02:33:54.879 --> 02:33:58.559
is evident because a lot of the
Down of the Dead special features for the

1986
02:33:58.639 --> 02:34:03.959
UK released from Second Site. Severn
was in charge of those special features,

1987
02:34:03.559 --> 02:34:07.600
So there you go. Yeah,
it's very impressive what they were able to

1988
02:34:07.639 --> 02:34:09.040
do. So I don't know if
if they have like a separate arm that

1989
02:34:09.120 --> 02:34:13.040
kind of does the supplements or whatever. But like you look at this and

1990
02:34:13.040 --> 02:34:15.079
you're like, well, I mean
I don't know about the movie maybe,

1991
02:34:15.120 --> 02:34:18.120
but like, I mean, there's
so much. This is like a very

1992
02:34:18.159 --> 02:34:26.079
deep dive into this director. There's
special features. Yeah, and literally these

1993
02:34:26.120 --> 02:34:31.959
are the voices behind Sonic and Sonic
the Hedgehog two, right, and for

1994
02:34:31.000 --> 02:34:35.799
those that didn't see it, the
two gentlemen that are reference to the beginning

1995
02:34:35.840 --> 02:34:39.760
here. They also did a YouTube
episode of the Severn Seller where they go

1996
02:34:39.799 --> 02:34:43.079
on and talk about things that are
in the seven Library and a sort of

1997
02:34:43.159 --> 02:34:50.239
riff on the Criterion closet method.
Nice. I mean, Peter Jackson started

1998
02:34:50.280 --> 02:34:54.440
in Horror, right, so maybe
that's all kinds of them. I mean

1999
02:34:54.520 --> 02:34:56.799
James Cameron, look at what he's
done. Yeah, right, right right?

2000
02:34:58.239 --> 02:35:03.639
Was it Piranha too? Right?
Yep? The Spawning Seven. Not

2001
02:35:03.840 --> 02:35:09.200
one to let a release go by
without a whole bunch of trinkets for Marty

2002
02:35:09.239 --> 02:35:13.920
Gras Masker. They are also releasing
a bead set for Marti Gras and a

2003
02:35:13.959 --> 02:35:18.280
green shotglass. They're also putting out
an American Splatter Movies en amel pin.

2004
02:35:18.840 --> 02:35:22.159
But the cooler thing is that Marty
Gras Masker is getting one of their now

2005
02:35:22.399 --> 02:35:28.600
like genuinely famous novelizations. This is
the third one they've done, and it

2006
02:35:28.680 --> 02:35:31.719
is the same guy that's done all
three of them. But then there's also

2007
02:35:31.760 --> 02:35:35.280
a comic book, and they released
some pictures from the comic book on their

2008
02:35:35.319 --> 02:35:41.959
Facebook and it is risk. It
looks pretty good. So this is the

2009
02:35:43.239 --> 02:35:48.360
bundle just for Marti Gras Masker for
everything sixty four bucks limited to five hundred.

2010
02:35:48.000 --> 02:35:52.520
If you want just the three releases, it's sixty five dollars, and

2011
02:35:52.559 --> 02:35:56.799
then if you want everything that they're
releasing in April, it is one hundred

2012
02:35:56.799 --> 02:36:05.360
and four dollars, which, eah, I don't I'm not a big drinked

2013
02:36:05.440 --> 02:36:09.360
guy, so I don't ever go
for these. I don't have any place

2014
02:36:09.399 --> 02:36:11.719
to put a lot of that stuff, but I'm certainly running out of places

2015
02:36:11.719 --> 02:36:20.040
to put those things. It is
crazy that we're still not done. So

2016
02:36:20.200 --> 02:36:24.920
I was talking about Violent City because
this is being released in the UK and

2017
02:36:24.639 --> 02:36:30.280
this is also coming out from Keno
on May seventeenth. This is with Charles

2018
02:36:30.280 --> 02:36:35.280
Bronson and gets a brand new two
K restoration of Violent City in English and

2019
02:36:35.319 --> 02:36:41.440
Italian with optional subs new audio commentary
by film historian Paul Talbot, the one

2020
02:36:41.440 --> 02:36:45.239
and only Bronzon film fan that is
as deep and knowledgeable as he is,

2021
02:36:45.760 --> 02:36:50.200
the author Bronson's loose books, Shooting
Violent City, interview with the co writer

2022
02:36:50.280 --> 02:36:54.760
and director Sergio Solima, theatrical trailers
for Violent City and the Family, and

2023
02:36:54.920 --> 02:37:03.280
a TV spot for the Family,
and let's see. Four K restoration of

2024
02:37:03.399 --> 02:37:09.760
Violent City in Italian with optional English
subtitles is on disc two h D Master

2025
02:37:09.799 --> 02:37:13.280
of the Family, a two K
scan of thirty five millimeters print in English

2026
02:37:13.399 --> 02:37:16.079
with the optional subtitles. So there's
a lot, honest, this is actually

2027
02:37:16.120 --> 02:37:20.639
a decent size release from Quino,
Ireland. That name is sounds so familiar.

2028
02:37:20.719 --> 02:37:24.040
She's in a lot of Bronzon movies, right, She's in a lot

2029
02:37:24.079 --> 02:37:28.120
of stuff around that time. Yeah
yeah, okay, yeah yeah yeah.

2030
02:37:30.239 --> 02:37:35.440
One of their patented slipcovers now is
making a sweet appearance here because it's Bronzon,

2031
02:37:35.520 --> 02:37:41.920
so they had to put one on
there. And then a kind of

2032
02:37:41.959 --> 02:37:46.200
exciting title. Gold Ninja Video is
putting out Skip Tracer from nineteen seventy seven.

2033
02:37:46.680 --> 02:37:48.680
This is about a repo man who
skips town after his life is threatened.

2034
02:37:48.879 --> 02:37:52.440
And this is available to pre order
now and if you were one of

2035
02:37:52.440 --> 02:37:56.920
their Indigogo subscribers, that is included
already in your package. But again,

2036
02:37:58.319 --> 02:38:01.239
just like with all the Gold Ninja
Video release, says justin Declue is all

2037
02:38:01.280 --> 02:38:07.479
over this thing, and it also
has a bonus film called Passion Zaial Daland's

2038
02:38:07.799 --> 02:38:13.440
unreleased movie called Passion. Golden Ninja
Video does great work, absolutely worth every

2039
02:38:13.520 --> 02:38:20.840
penny. Yeah, I've been I've
wordered a few other things since we spoke

2040
02:38:20.920 --> 02:38:22.879
to kind of support him, but
I haven't seen him yet. That's I'm

2041
02:38:24.680 --> 02:38:28.600
I'm I'm very happy to support that
guy. Sounds awesome. The cover art

2042
02:38:28.600 --> 02:38:31.520
they put out for this after is
much better than this poster. This is

2043
02:38:31.600 --> 02:38:35.159
not the cover art being used and
it's it looks like a really good package.

2044
02:38:35.479 --> 02:38:43.799
Cool uh talked about that you are
here. And then Blue Underground we

2045
02:38:43.879 --> 02:38:48.159
have got some release details. Uncle
Sam from nineteen ninety six coming on four

2046
02:38:48.239 --> 02:38:52.559
K with a lenticular cover of the
famous you know this this picture and then

2047
02:38:52.639 --> 02:38:56.000
the the more zombie fide picture.
It's fourth of July weekend, and the

2048
02:38:56.000 --> 02:39:01.399
recently discovered corpse of Sergeant Sam Harper, killed by friendly fire during the first

2049
02:39:01.440 --> 02:39:05.879
goal for is returned to his all
American hometown. But when Sam rises from

2050
02:39:05.920 --> 02:39:09.959
the dead to punish the unpatriotic,
only his young nephew and a bitter Korean

2051
02:39:09.959 --> 02:39:15.520
War veteran played by Isaac Hayes himself
can stop his red blooded rampage. Draft

2052
02:39:15.520 --> 02:39:18.600
dodgers, tax cheats, crooked politicians
and flag burners. Beware, Uncle Sam

2053
02:39:18.639 --> 02:39:24.719
wants you dead. This was directed
by William Lustig, so of course this

2054
02:39:24.760 --> 02:39:30.479
is getting a four K release from
the thirty five millimeter camera negative. This

2055
02:39:30.520 --> 02:39:31.920
is going to look great, of
course, It's Blue Underground. It's going

2056
02:39:31.959 --> 02:39:37.600
to be amazing. It gets an
audio commentary and archival one obviously with Bill

2057
02:39:37.639 --> 02:39:41.120
Lustig and Larry Cohen and the producer, and then there is another commentary with

2058
02:39:41.159 --> 02:39:46.239
Bill Lustig and star Isaac Hayes,
and then fire stunts with audio commentary by

2059
02:39:46.239 --> 02:39:52.040
stunt coordinator Spiro Rosattos, deleted scene
gagreel and this is only a four K

2060
02:39:52.159 --> 02:39:58.399
disc. There is no Blu ray
coming in this package. Have you seen

2061
02:39:58.399 --> 02:40:01.680
this movie? I have. I've
got the Blu ray right behind me.

2062
02:40:01.159 --> 02:40:05.600
It is it's pretty good. It's
it's uh, I won't say it.

2063
02:40:05.680 --> 02:40:09.000
Well, it's pretty peak air elastic. Yeah, exactly. I think that's

2064
02:40:09.040 --> 02:40:11.479
a good way to say it.
I like the I like the little twist.

2065
02:40:11.600 --> 02:40:16.159
But that commentary with Larry Cohen,
I just I love every time Larry

2066
02:40:16.159 --> 02:40:20.559
Cohen talks. I think that man
is like so smart and like I think

2067
02:40:20.559 --> 02:40:24.920
this is a great commentation. He
is brilliant and his hands are on so

2068
02:40:24.040 --> 02:40:28.520
many different things that you you don't
even realize until you actually dig in,

2069
02:40:28.559 --> 02:40:31.319
because he wrote so many things,
he directed so many things. He's just

2070
02:40:31.479 --> 02:40:37.840
everywhere. Yeah. Uh okay,
so I guess I forgot that we weren't

2071
02:40:37.920 --> 02:40:43.600
tonch with vinegar syndrome. Let's talk
about the very last thing of this week,

2072
02:40:43.680 --> 02:40:46.159
which, first of all, thanks
everybody that's hung around, because this

2073
02:40:46.200 --> 02:40:50.600
has been literally the biggest week of
announcements that I can remember in the last

2074
02:40:50.719 --> 02:40:56.799
multiple years, just primarily because everybody's
announcements lined up at once. We got

2075
02:40:56.879 --> 02:41:01.959
announcements from pretty much every May Your
boutique except for like eighty eight Films and

2076
02:41:03.040 --> 02:41:09.520
Eureka and Criterion, but pretty much
everybody else. So Vinegar Syndrome we have

2077
02:41:09.799 --> 02:41:15.639
dates in hand for their flash pre
order for their Halfway to Black Friday megasale,

2078
02:41:15.639 --> 02:41:18.040
which will be in May. The
flash pre order will be March twenty

2079
02:41:18.040 --> 02:41:24.399
fifth through twenty seventh, just a
few short weeks away, and some details

2080
02:41:24.399 --> 02:41:28.079
that they go into here. Every
sale we try our best to best the

2081
02:41:28.079 --> 02:41:31.000
one before, and this time will
be no exception, with five fantastic Vinegar

2082
02:41:31.040 --> 02:41:37.399
Syndrome releases, among them three four
ks, three never on Blu Ray horror

2083
02:41:37.479 --> 02:41:39.799
films, one of which will also
be a four K, the world four

2084
02:41:39.879 --> 02:41:45.399
K premiere of a crazy action classic
restored in both of its versions, and

2085
02:41:45.440 --> 02:41:48.920
of course, the authorized worldwide four
K and Blu Ray debut of the notorious

2086
02:41:48.920 --> 02:41:56.319
thriller A Cruel Picture and on Thriller
extras are stacking up, including revealing interviews

2087
02:41:56.319 --> 02:42:00.319
with Christina Lindberg, along with numerous
other cast and crew who have never publicly

2088
02:42:00.399 --> 02:42:03.479
discussed their work on film. On
top of that, we have plentiful trailer

2089
02:42:03.520 --> 02:42:05.200
stills, outtakes, and all of
the same stuff that they always do.

2090
02:42:07.040 --> 02:42:11.040
But the really interesting paragraph here that
a lot of people have been asking me

2091
02:42:11.079 --> 02:42:16.280
about. So I want to spend
a minute on this because this is kind

2092
02:42:16.280 --> 02:42:22.280
of a very public swipe at Synaps
here. And yes, we are aware

2093
02:42:22.360 --> 02:42:26.600
of the inferior blu ray utilizing a
nearly twenty year old master that is being

2094
02:42:26.680 --> 02:42:31.479
sold, and we are working to
resolve that situation. But if you,

2095
02:42:31.719 --> 02:42:35.040
as a connoisseur of exploitation cinema,
wish to see thriller looking the best that

2096
02:42:35.159 --> 02:42:39.360
ever has and in the most comprehensive
edition that ever will be, and you

2097
02:42:39.440 --> 02:42:45.079
believe that filmmakers ought to be respected
and paid for their work, we highly

2098
02:42:45.159 --> 02:42:48.840
encourage you to wait a few more
weeks to place an order for the Vinegar

2099
02:42:48.879 --> 02:42:56.079
Syndrome edition. It'll be worth it, damn. So, first off,

2100
02:42:56.680 --> 02:43:01.879
they're literally saying that Synaps is selling
a bootlet. Yep uh. This is

2101
02:43:03.159 --> 02:43:07.280
this is basically a public season to
sist. Yeah, yeah, that's true.

2102
02:43:07.360 --> 02:43:11.760
That's a good wad. Look at
it the fact that they said that

2103
02:43:11.840 --> 02:43:15.600
we are working, h what was
the exact urbage here? We are,

2104
02:43:16.440 --> 02:43:22.479
uh, we are aware of it
and working to resolve that situation, which

2105
02:43:22.520 --> 02:43:28.079
means Synapse does not have permission to
release thriller from anybody that holds the rights.

2106
02:43:28.520 --> 02:43:33.159
And from what I have heard that
they they had their previous master that

2107
02:43:33.159 --> 02:43:37.479
they had on DVD and they were
under the impression that they had the right

2108
02:43:37.520 --> 02:43:41.360
to sell it on Blu Ray and
just waited and so they took that DVD

2109
02:43:41.440 --> 02:43:46.840
scan and put it on a Blu
Ray. And that's it. You gotta

2110
02:43:46.920 --> 02:43:50.000
check the right stuff. I mean, like you can, you can say

2111
02:43:50.000 --> 02:43:52.639
what you want, but you've got
to check. That was the thing I've

2112
02:43:52.719 --> 02:43:58.479
I've learned through all these conversations.
You have to you have to know because

2113
02:43:58.479 --> 02:44:01.319
as soon as you start making money
off of somebody's property, it bubbles up

2114
02:44:01.360 --> 02:44:05.479
to the surface real fast, right, And with something like this, especially

2115
02:44:05.479 --> 02:44:07.760
with a title that so many people
know and are fond of, and it's

2116
02:44:09.040 --> 02:44:11.920
it's kind of a big deal title. Yeah, that's this is like a

2117
02:44:13.239 --> 02:44:16.840
this is like a fuck random find
out type of title. Yeah, yeah,

2118
02:44:16.879 --> 02:44:20.239
totally. What was the one last
year is at Django, right,

2119
02:44:22.479 --> 02:44:26.799
Uh, the infamous Jango release.
Yeah, that was a Blue Underground and

2120
02:44:26.159 --> 02:44:31.559
Arrow fiasco that that caused all of
that. I am kind of glad that

2121
02:44:31.559 --> 02:44:35.079
that one got delayed because we were
able to eventually get the four K at

2122
02:44:35.079 --> 02:44:41.520
the same time and legitimately one of
the best looking four k's ever. I

2123
02:44:41.520 --> 02:44:43.680
mean, that movie is awesome anyways, but that that transfer is just as

2124
02:44:43.719 --> 02:44:50.360
well. So the big thing other
than thriller that we you know, we

2125
02:44:50.440 --> 02:44:54.639
hit on pretty well there. The
flash pre order is already happening this month,

2126
02:44:54.959 --> 02:45:00.559
and a lot of people they are
they're like just now into some of

2127
02:45:00.559 --> 02:45:03.079
their Black Friday titles and it's already
almost time for that halfway to Black Friday

2128
02:45:03.360 --> 02:45:11.079
flash pre order. Things move fast
around here. I hope everybody is ready,

2129
02:45:13.319 --> 02:45:16.760
all right. Next thing we always
do is talk about what's coming out

2130
02:45:16.799 --> 02:45:24.319
next week. Okay, let me
share that screen and last week or I

2131
02:45:24.319 --> 02:45:26.879
guess this week was really slow,
but next week really picks it up again.

2132
02:45:28.360 --> 02:45:31.959
So we got the best movie of
last year, says four people on

2133
02:45:31.000 --> 02:45:35.200
blu ray dot com. The matrix
resolution resurrections of four K is coming out.

2134
02:45:37.040 --> 02:45:41.680
Speaking of synapse phenomenon, four K
is coming out, and the Aero

2135
02:45:41.799 --> 02:45:46.479
video version of that one is already
shipping. Their release of Thriller supposedly is

2136
02:45:46.479 --> 02:45:54.040
coming out next week. The Death
Game from Grindhouse releasing. I believe we'll

2137
02:45:54.079 --> 02:45:58.959
be shipping here shortly. Oh yeah, that's right. They have two types

2138
02:46:00.079 --> 02:46:01.760
us coming out, right or is
it just that one? Just this one?

2139
02:46:01.799 --> 02:46:09.520
And then they did the Rudy Ray
Moore book yet and we are getting

2140
02:46:09.920 --> 02:46:13.159
Monster from Greenhill. Wanted to hit
this home a little bit. This is

2141
02:46:13.200 --> 02:46:16.479
coming from the film Detective. Not
a lot of people talk about them,

2142
02:46:16.520 --> 02:46:20.079
and I hear the Monster from Green
Hell is really good. I just ordered

2143
02:46:20.159 --> 02:46:24.399
that one as part of the best
buy sale that is I believe still going

2144
02:46:24.399 --> 02:46:26.879
on. It might be done now, but got that one pretty cheap.

2145
02:46:28.079 --> 02:46:33.040
Should be here in the next week. Adoption from Criterion is getting its release,

2146
02:46:35.600 --> 02:46:41.159
and then Hester Street from Cohen Media, a sub label of Keino,

2147
02:46:41.399 --> 02:46:46.079
is coming out the Legend of Laurna. I believe this is the other YouTuber

2148
02:46:46.159 --> 02:46:52.440
master Chaoss movie. I would give
everybody a hardy please go check that out,

2149
02:46:52.479 --> 02:46:56.959
support other people in the hobby.
And then Keno's release of the Apartment

2150
02:46:56.079 --> 02:47:01.440
is also releasing. I don't believe
the four K is coming next week.

2151
02:47:01.680 --> 02:47:05.719
It might be from Epic Pictures,
which I love and I always try to

2152
02:47:05.719 --> 02:47:09.959
talk about because nobody else does.
The Swerve is coming out. They are

2153
02:47:11.520 --> 02:47:16.159
one of the labels that also puts
out the Dread Pictures. They're up to

2154
02:47:16.079 --> 02:47:22.440
gosh like almost forty numbered releases that
are great and uh like. They're the

2155
02:47:22.479 --> 02:47:26.680
ones that put out Terrify a few
years ago, the modern horror with Art

2156
02:47:26.719 --> 02:47:31.719
the Clown. Yeah. Yeah,
and that is I think all of it

2157
02:47:33.040 --> 02:47:37.319
unless you're a real big Brooklyn ninety
nine fan. At this point, we

2158
02:47:37.360 --> 02:47:43.440
usually talk about pickups. Do you
have anything you want to share? Yeah?

2159
02:47:43.479 --> 02:47:48.879
Sure, so we had I don't
have them with me. We had

2160
02:47:48.040 --> 02:47:50.879
to kind of get out of our
house quickly because we uncovered some mold in

2161
02:47:50.920 --> 02:47:58.360
the house. Oh that's We're in
a temporary spot and I anyways, I

2162
02:47:58.399 --> 02:48:01.920
don't have them with me. I
got the I got the February sale for

2163
02:48:01.959 --> 02:48:05.959
Vinegar Syndrome in with the partner labels. So I'm starting to go through those

2164
02:48:07.440 --> 02:48:15.440
and that's been fun. And then
this has been a relatively slow like couple

2165
02:48:15.520 --> 02:48:18.120
of weeks for me for pickups.
I got those in. I'm expecting to

2166
02:48:18.120 --> 02:48:24.079
spend a lot of money between March
and April, and so I'm kind of

2167
02:48:24.120 --> 02:48:26.559
saving up a little bit. There
was one more thing I know I got

2168
02:48:26.559 --> 02:48:31.799
in ohh. So speaking of things
that take like forever to come in or

2169
02:48:31.840 --> 02:48:39.360
whatever, rare Ro video. So
I'm still one of the like five people

2170
02:48:39.440 --> 02:48:45.239
that buys from their website despite all
their problems, and I basically just kind

2171
02:48:45.280 --> 02:48:48.079
of like buy and just like I'm
like okay, like it's gonna come when

2172
02:48:48.120 --> 02:48:54.319
it comes in. So I got
four movies that I ordered in November that

2173
02:48:54.479 --> 02:48:58.200
we're more on the like experimental side
of Italian cinema, a lot of shorts,

2174
02:48:58.200 --> 02:49:03.000
a lot of people play with like
almost like Stan Bracket style of kind

2175
02:49:03.040 --> 02:49:09.040
of very experimental shorts. And so
I got four titles at there from that

2176
02:49:09.159 --> 02:49:13.239
from them, I think that covers
it from the last like two or three

2177
02:49:13.239 --> 02:49:16.760
weeks from me. Rero is a
wild and I will remind everyone if you

2178
02:49:16.920 --> 02:49:20.559
if you are not into them yet, the best time is if you just

2179
02:49:20.600 --> 02:49:24.319
get into one or two titles during
a Kino sale. Kino also distributes for

2180
02:49:24.360 --> 02:49:28.000
them, so it's a really good
time. You can find them for like

2181
02:49:28.120 --> 02:49:31.000
nine ten bucks and just throw that
in there. Check it out. They've

2182
02:49:31.040 --> 02:49:35.440
got the like the way that I
always describe them is like they're the directors

2183
02:49:35.479 --> 02:49:37.520
you know, and then the films
you don't know from those people exactly,

2184
02:49:37.719 --> 02:49:41.879
Like they're they're deep into like genres, Italian genre films. Oh, it's

2185
02:49:41.920 --> 02:49:46.879
not like a pickup, but every
year I get a ten dollars cupon from

2186
02:49:46.879 --> 02:49:52.760
Criterion because I was like a charter
subscriber for the channel, and so I

2187
02:49:52.879 --> 02:49:56.600
just got it. And like historically
that means that next Tuesday is going to

2188
02:49:56.639 --> 02:50:03.120
be the Flashdale Nice. I'm like
ninety five percent confident that it's going to

2189
02:50:03.200 --> 02:50:05.719
come next Tuesday. And that's that's
usually a twenty four hour sale through the

2190
02:50:05.760 --> 02:50:11.559
Criterion website and fifty off everything.
As always, that is the best time

2191
02:50:11.600 --> 02:50:16.760
to buy from them, by far. I set aside a few things that

2192
02:50:16.959 --> 02:50:20.399
I thought would be more up your
rally. I got in the newest wave

2193
02:50:20.520 --> 02:50:26.559
of imprint, so I got the
February titles. We got the return of

2194
02:50:26.600 --> 02:50:31.120
Pink Panther this is from nineteen seventy
five, and lots of good stuff on

2195
02:50:31.159 --> 02:50:37.760
here. Let's see yeah, yeah, yeah, decent release. And then

2196
02:50:37.399 --> 02:50:41.239
I'm stoked on this one. The
out of towners with Jack Levin. Oh

2197
02:50:41.319 --> 02:50:48.319
yeah, this one's from nineteen seventy, the sequel that everybody seemingly hates.

2198
02:50:48.399 --> 02:50:54.520
But I've never seen the Bad News
Bears in Breaking twenty. It's not great,

2199
02:50:54.600 --> 02:51:00.760
but yeah whatever. The exciting ones, though, is the two kind

2200
02:51:00.760 --> 02:51:03.600
of box sets that they put out
for this month. We got Jerry Lewis

2201
02:51:03.719 --> 02:51:07.879
at Columbia and this is in an
actual hard box and everything in the same

2202
02:51:07.920 --> 02:51:13.000
imprint style. And this has the
big Mouth and hook Line and Sinker from

2203
02:51:13.040 --> 02:51:18.040
nineteen sixty seven and nineteen sixty nine
and special features on both audio commentaries on

2204
02:51:18.079 --> 02:51:24.639
both. This is It's a pretty
good release, but this is the save

2205
02:51:24.719 --> 02:51:28.000
the one that I really wanted to
love. For last, we have the

2206
02:51:28.040 --> 02:51:33.680
Odd Couple collection, and this is
so crazy what they're doing here. So

2207
02:51:33.719 --> 02:51:35.959
first we have the Odd Couple from
nineteen sixty eight. Of course, we

2208
02:51:37.040 --> 02:51:41.600
have the Odd Couple two, which
is thirty years later with both Jack Lemon

2209
02:51:41.639 --> 02:51:46.360
and Walter Mattha in nineteen ninety eight. But they also have the Odd Couple

2210
02:51:46.440 --> 02:51:50.760
on television. They have in the
nineteen seventies television series Cantoni Randall and Jack

2211
02:51:50.799 --> 02:51:56.760
Klugman share an apartment without driving each
other Crazy. Ten classic episodes spanning all

2212
02:51:56.840 --> 02:52:01.239
five seasons are presented for the first
time on Blu Ray, and I love

2213
02:52:01.280 --> 02:52:03.559
the way they did that. They
chose ten episodes, they put it with

2214
02:52:03.559 --> 02:52:07.600
two different films, and then put
it in a box set. Yeah,

2215
02:52:07.600 --> 02:52:13.239
that's cool, cool idea. That's
a really good comedy too. Yeah,

2216
02:52:13.479 --> 02:52:16.920
it's classic. And then the last
thing I really wanted to highlight because I'm

2217
02:52:16.920 --> 02:52:20.000
so stoked I got this because it
went fast, and I guess this is

2218
02:52:20.040 --> 02:52:24.479
going for like three and a half
times the cost on the second hand market

2219
02:52:24.479 --> 02:52:26.959
already. I got the Arrow video
version of Don't Go in the House,

2220
02:52:28.079 --> 02:52:31.239
their video nasty cover. You got
the Aero video, different logo on the

2221
02:52:31.239 --> 02:52:35.879
front here. And the big thing
about this is this has a completely different

2222
02:52:35.879 --> 02:52:39.079
cut of the film that's not on
the Severn release. This has a third

2223
02:52:39.120 --> 02:52:48.120
bonus disc. When you bought the
video nasty version of this rather cool release.

2224
02:52:48.639 --> 02:52:52.200
That's great. Where did you get
it from? Aero? It was

2225
02:52:52.239 --> 02:52:56.719
the only place to get it,
Yeah, Aero Direct and they yeah,

2226
02:52:56.760 --> 02:53:03.520
they sold out very quickly. Recent
watches. Is there anything that you watched

2227
02:53:03.559 --> 02:53:07.360
recently that you want to highlight?
Oh yeah, sure, yeah, give

2228
02:53:07.399 --> 02:53:11.520
me if you can if you can
give it either ten seconds, I have

2229
02:53:11.600 --> 02:53:13.120
it right here, or if you
want to start with one and we can

2230
02:53:13.159 --> 02:53:18.799
switch. But as fast as my
internet can pulls up, I'll uh so

2231
02:53:18.920 --> 02:53:20.920
one of the things actually here,
I can jump in. So one of

2232
02:53:20.959 --> 02:53:24.920
the things I've been doing this year, like, of all the things that

2233
02:53:24.959 --> 02:53:28.280
I'm kind of into, my biggest
blind spot is actually classic Hollywood movies.

2234
02:53:30.719 --> 02:53:35.879
I obviously don't love them, like
kind of like especially like forties fifties like

2235
02:53:37.000 --> 02:53:39.719
dramas. I just like like stabbed
me in the eye, like I can't

2236
02:53:39.719 --> 02:53:46.440
do it. I don't like them
at all, but I want to like

2237
02:53:46.440 --> 02:53:48.920
give him a chance. So one
of the things I've been doing this year

2238
02:53:50.079 --> 02:53:54.120
is that like ten years ago or
twelve years ago or something, Warner Brothers

2239
02:53:54.159 --> 02:54:00.000
released one hundred DVD bucks and it's
like it's it's not a one hundred.

2240
02:54:00.319 --> 02:54:05.799
I think it's like fifty discs,
right, it's a honker like and it's

2241
02:54:05.840 --> 02:54:09.399
been sitting on my shelf. I
got it secondhand for like sixty bucks or

2242
02:54:09.440 --> 02:54:11.120
something crazy, and I was like, yeah, one day I'll go through

2243
02:54:11.120 --> 02:54:16.360
these and finally see like freaking like
Yankee Doodle Dandy, Like I don't care

2244
02:54:16.479 --> 02:54:22.680
like whatever. So I've been doing
that, and there's some really good movies

2245
02:54:22.719 --> 02:54:26.959
in there, like credit where credits
do. Like these movies are famous for

2246
02:54:26.000 --> 02:54:33.159
a reason. Recently, I rewatched
Costa Blanca and like, that's just I

2247
02:54:33.159 --> 02:54:35.879
don't know, like it's worth the
hype. That movie's fantastic, Like the

2248
02:54:37.000 --> 02:54:41.319
dialogue is so sharp and like the
characters are like so perfectly like crafted,

2249
02:54:41.440 --> 02:54:46.479
and there's so much that's not spoken
but still communicated, and that movie's great.

2250
02:54:46.040 --> 02:54:50.399
I did see Yankee Doodle Dandy.
I didn't like that movie. It

2251
02:54:50.479 --> 02:54:58.000
was dumb. And yeah, I'm
just scrolling through the I saw The Scary

2252
02:54:58.040 --> 02:55:01.440
of sixty first. Did you ever
see Possession? Oh? Of course,

2253
02:55:01.520 --> 02:55:05.520
God, I love it movie,
Like I had very similar vibes to me,

2254
02:55:05.600 --> 02:55:09.719
Like it had that real frenetic like
you're not at rest as the audience,

2255
02:55:09.760 --> 02:55:13.680
you don't really know exactly what's going
on, and like they kind of

2256
02:55:13.680 --> 02:55:16.680
trust the audience to piece it together
a little bit enough to at least leave

2257
02:55:16.719 --> 02:55:22.120
with like some semblance of a discussion
on it. And I like it when

2258
02:55:22.159 --> 02:55:26.120
directors do that. And I feel
like none of people are talking about Scary

2259
02:55:26.159 --> 02:55:28.319
sixty first. So I watch about
a movie a day. I could go

2260
02:55:28.319 --> 02:55:31.399
on for a long time, but
I'll stop there. These are some ones

2261
02:55:31.399 --> 02:55:35.159
that are kind of jumping out.
What about you? You're good? I've

2262
02:55:35.200 --> 02:55:37.120
talked about most of mine. I
can't do a movie a day with two

2263
02:55:37.159 --> 02:55:41.559
young kids, sadly. I watched
The Scary of sixty first recently. The

2264
02:55:41.559 --> 02:55:46.879
way I said it in my review
is that I understood the art behind it,

2265
02:55:46.920 --> 02:55:50.040
and I liked what I liked in
it, but I was not the

2266
02:55:50.079 --> 02:55:56.040
demographic overall. It wasn't for me. I think that the story that it

2267
02:55:56.120 --> 02:56:00.559
told it was very successful in and
the people that it's meant for will probably

2268
02:56:00.600 --> 02:56:05.239
adore that movie, but it wasn't
meant for me. Yeah, I do

2269
02:56:05.319 --> 02:56:11.079
think that Antler's was much better than
I expected. But even that, like

2270
02:56:11.159 --> 02:56:13.040
again, just like you, I've
rarely watched a lot of new movies like

2271
02:56:13.079 --> 02:56:18.399
that, so I was still very
out of my element. What else is

2272
02:56:18.399 --> 02:56:22.600
there recently? I should pull up
my letterboxed not a lot recently. Oh

2273
02:56:22.520 --> 02:56:26.040
h and then I watched Fortress of
America this week the VSA, Like I

2274
02:56:26.079 --> 02:56:28.920
said, and I reviewed that for
the channel, so that that was a

2275
02:56:28.920 --> 02:56:37.040
fun one. Well, what's that
movie? It's a wild movie. I

2276
02:56:37.319 --> 02:56:39.959
love that they try to. I
mean, the characters of this film are

2277
02:56:41.000 --> 02:56:48.399
literally portrayed as training for military,
but they're literally just murdering everybody that's in

2278
02:56:48.440 --> 02:56:52.239
this random town next to them.
And I don't I don't understand it.

2279
02:56:52.719 --> 02:56:56.559
Yeah. There, So that one
had like kind of you know, Nazi

2280
02:56:56.680 --> 02:57:01.799
type, kind of like fascist themes. And then I just recently saw a

2281
02:57:01.840 --> 02:57:05.440
wolf Pack. Have you seen that? I just got my February packaging.

2282
02:57:05.559 --> 02:57:09.399
I've not been able to watch anything
yet. That movie's crazy, Like,

2283
02:57:09.479 --> 02:57:13.360
I like, there was a movie
made in the eighties that was like watching

2284
02:57:13.399 --> 02:57:18.879
it now is like it's uncomfortable to
watch because it basically is like how fascist

2285
02:57:18.879 --> 02:57:22.079
and rises in a small town and
it's done pretty well. Actually, Like

2286
02:57:22.120 --> 02:57:26.600
it's kind of a heavy movie for
a BSA title. It's too relevant.

2287
02:57:28.559 --> 02:57:33.520
Yeah, it's hard to watch really, but it's interesting that they're releasing is

2288
02:57:33.559 --> 02:57:37.520
kind of politically charged movies. One
of our comments says they got in Labyrinth

2289
02:57:37.559 --> 02:57:43.040
of Cinema. Yeah, and then
their Vinegar Center Mortar, which included Delta

2290
02:57:43.079 --> 02:57:46.239
Space Mission from Deaf Crocodile and I
cannot wait to watch Delta Space Mission.

2291
02:57:46.559 --> 02:57:50.399
Oh yeah, did you watch that
one? Yet. Don't tell them no,

2292
02:57:50.559 --> 02:57:54.040
I haven't seen it yet. I
haven't. I'm going to see it

2293
02:57:54.079 --> 02:58:00.280
soon and I can't wait. Looks
really good. One thing that have not

2294
02:58:00.319 --> 02:58:03.200
brought up again, but I know
that you wanted to talk about it.

2295
02:58:03.399 --> 02:58:07.319
Let me share this screen. You
want to talk about master Video? Oh

2296
02:58:07.399 --> 02:58:13.319
okay, yeah, yeah yeah,
So, I mean, I don't know,

2297
02:58:13.319 --> 02:58:15.920
we're just like it's like a love
fest for the Batique labels here,

2298
02:58:15.959 --> 02:58:22.479
but like in a world where like
everybody is doing it their own way,

2299
02:58:22.680 --> 02:58:26.000
Lewis is like really doing it his
own way. Like he's been around for

2300
02:58:26.079 --> 02:58:31.920
a long time. He's he is
not a part of MPD, he's not

2301
02:58:31.959 --> 02:58:35.239
a part of OCN. He's like
his own distributor. He has his own

2302
02:58:35.280 --> 02:58:41.479
streaming site. He's sort of like
this loud, well not loud, but

2303
02:58:41.520 --> 02:58:46.520
I mean like he sort of like
champions these really like nasty kind of exploitation

2304
02:58:46.639 --> 02:58:50.520
movies, right, A lot of
releases otherwise, and then every once in

2305
02:58:50.559 --> 02:58:54.719
a while he releases the bad Pack
and it's like, I really watch I

2306
02:58:54.879 --> 02:59:00.639
like his release of Maha call if
if you've seen it as that movie awesome.

2307
02:59:03.000 --> 02:59:07.680
I recommended that somebody earlier today,
I said you appear to be somebody

2308
02:59:07.719 --> 02:59:11.280
that would love Maha call and they
said, I have one Masker video release

2309
02:59:11.360 --> 02:59:15.479
and it's that one. So I
was right, great, if you can

2310
02:59:15.520 --> 02:59:20.639
find a copy of what's the one? Not Jack o' lantern but Hacklelana,

2311
02:59:20.719 --> 02:59:24.200
thank you. That movie is really
fun too. But yeah, like I

2312
02:59:24.239 --> 02:59:28.159
think Lewis is like one of these
guys that just I want personally. I

2313
02:59:28.239 --> 02:59:33.479
just want to support him. It's
one hundred percent if you buy from the

2314
02:59:33.520 --> 02:59:35.879
store, he gets the money,
and like it just all goes into the

2315
02:59:35.879 --> 02:59:39.239
next releases. Like he's a very
busy person. He has his hands and

2316
02:59:39.280 --> 02:59:43.399
like a lot of different pies,
so he doesn't even necessarily make a lot

2317
02:59:43.399 --> 02:59:46.479
of money from the releases. It
just funds more releases from him and like

2318
02:59:46.920 --> 02:59:52.440
kind of growing the business in a
way that I like what he does.

2319
02:59:52.600 --> 02:59:56.559
And sometimes the movies are a little
intense for me. He hasn't put out

2320
02:59:56.639 --> 03:00:01.520
on Blu ray yet, he hasn't
gone into the like humbling dollar flesh territory.

2321
03:00:03.079 --> 03:00:05.159
I don't know if I could honestly
buy that one. I might just

2322
03:00:05.399 --> 03:00:09.000
record it, but I might keep
it in its wrapping. I don't love

2323
03:00:09.040 --> 03:00:13.680
those kind of movies, right,
but yeah, I don't know. I

2324
03:00:13.760 --> 03:00:16.280
like the fact that he's like kind
of punk rock in a world of people

2325
03:00:16.280 --> 03:00:20.360
that are already outside the system,
and I want to support him. The

2326
03:00:20.440 --> 03:00:26.879
only thing, obviously, Mascer Video
has some reputations to overcome. There's a

2327
03:00:26.920 --> 03:00:30.879
lot of people that used to order
from ASCAR Video back in like twenty seventeen

2328
03:00:30.920 --> 03:00:33.959
and eighteen, and for some reason
you would order something and not get word

2329
03:00:35.040 --> 03:00:39.399
back for literally six months, and
people would complain all the time about that,

2330
03:00:39.440 --> 03:00:43.360
and rightfully, so obviously you shouldn't
have to deal with that, of

2331
03:00:43.879 --> 03:00:46.440
course. But the biggest thing with
Masker is they'll announce the title, like

2332
03:00:46.479 --> 03:00:50.360
the Bad Pack. They announced the
Bad Pack like fourteen months ago, and

2333
03:00:50.360 --> 03:00:54.280
then there was nothing about it for
fourteen months, and now you can pre

2334
03:00:54.399 --> 03:00:58.840
order it. The other thing,
I've had a lot of people ask lately,

2335
03:01:00.280 --> 03:01:03.959
what do you think about these titles
like the Bad Pack? Will say,

2336
03:01:05.600 --> 03:01:07.200
maybe I'm forgetting let me open this
one up. This might be a

2337
03:01:07.239 --> 03:01:13.239
bad option. These are twenty nine
dollars to order right now, and oh

2338
03:01:13.399 --> 03:01:15.840
yeah, see that was a bad
option. I think Hardcore is the one

2339
03:01:15.840 --> 03:01:20.120
that I was actually thinking of.
This is uh yeah, so this is

2340
03:01:20.239 --> 03:01:24.959
thirty dollars to pre order, and
there's no features on here. There's an

2341
03:01:24.959 --> 03:01:31.000
extensive Steels gallery and trailers for other
Master titles and that's it. Thirty bucks

2342
03:01:31.000 --> 03:01:35.840
for that seems like a lot.
Yeah, I mean it's true. I

2343
03:01:35.879 --> 03:01:41.479
have nothing to say to that.
It's true. Like it this is his

2344
03:01:41.680 --> 03:01:46.719
way of probably funding the future releases. But like, I don't know if

2345
03:01:46.719 --> 03:01:50.680
that's fair to necessarily ask people to
do that, right, And I get

2346
03:01:50.719 --> 03:01:52.840
that, And then, like I
was saying, the bad pack, it

2347
03:01:52.840 --> 03:01:58.360
does have a new commentary, and
I think Portrait Andrea Palmer had something brand

2348
03:01:58.399 --> 03:02:01.200
new, right, And yeah,
it has a short film called flesh Meat

2349
03:02:01.200 --> 03:02:11.559
Dolls. Gotta love that face.
Yeah, so they're they're a little expensive

2350
03:02:11.559 --> 03:02:15.719
to dive into. But Masker Video, a lot of the stuff they put

2351
03:02:15.760 --> 03:02:18.440
out is genuinely fun. Weird to
say that after saying flesh meat Dolls,

2352
03:02:18.440 --> 03:02:24.479
but yeah, they are known for
some of the more like depraved titles on

2353
03:02:24.520 --> 03:02:30.040
their DVD side at least, but
they they've put out some some gems in

2354
03:02:30.079 --> 03:02:33.840
between. And if you if you
can find something that you like, grab

2355
03:02:33.879 --> 03:02:37.840
onto it, enjoy it. And
uh, yeah, that's that's it about

2356
03:02:37.840 --> 03:02:43.840
Masker Video. I have one more
digital copy to give away for tonight.

2357
03:02:43.040 --> 03:02:46.920

2376
03:04:15.040 --> 03:04:18.120
work. I was just even something
like putting together that slide show or whatever.

2377
03:04:18.159 --> 03:04:20.520
How are you like kind of you
know, there's a there's a lot

2378
03:04:20.520 --> 03:04:24.520
of work that goes into these,
so I think it shows and I really

2379
03:04:24.639 --> 03:04:28.319
really appreciate what you're doing there is
I thank you for that. Speaking of

2380
03:04:28.360 --> 03:04:33.159
the podcast, anything coming up that
you can hint at or yeah, sure,

2381
03:04:33.399 --> 03:04:39.719
so we have okay, we just
released. I was personally geeked out

2382
03:04:39.760 --> 03:04:46.959
with Dice Skate bepoo, just the
most sweetheart guy, Like I can't I

2383
03:04:46.000 --> 03:04:48.840
don't even know how to say it. He just like if you ever doubt

2384
03:04:48.840 --> 03:04:52.440
that there's like still good people in
the world, Like just listen to him

2385
03:04:52.479 --> 03:04:54.920
talk like you just you just want
to like squeeze him. He's like so

2386
03:04:54.000 --> 03:05:05.559
sweet Dice Skate and then we have
something weird is next. Then after that

2387
03:05:05.719 --> 03:05:13.760
is going to be the world's foremost
silent film accompanist. His name is Ben

2388
03:05:13.799 --> 03:05:18.680
Model. This dude is awesome,
Like he's a very enigmatic person. He

2389
03:05:18.799 --> 03:05:22.079
has to try to convince people to
like silent film. So if you can

2390
03:05:22.120 --> 03:05:28.280
imagine like the person who's the world's
foremost at that like very like enigmatic person

2391
03:05:28.319 --> 03:05:31.440
has got great energy. And then
after that is going to be Agfa,

2392
03:05:31.479 --> 03:05:35.360
which is it is my personal favorite
interview as far as like on screen kind

2393
03:05:35.399 --> 03:05:43.520
of chemistry or whatever on eric chemistry. And then we're going to be recording

2394
03:05:45.440 --> 03:05:50.559
Yellow Veil speaking of that, and
we're still trying to put down one on

2395
03:05:50.680 --> 03:05:54.479
one and Indicator. Those are the
ones that we're trying to pin down,

2396
03:05:54.520 --> 03:05:58.840
So hopefully that comes up soon.
I think when we talked last time,

2397
03:05:58.840 --> 03:06:03.319
you were working on imprint. Anything
ever come through with them. They're very

2398
03:06:03.360 --> 03:06:07.600
generous, but they're very busy,
so not yet. They I mean for

2399
03:06:07.639 --> 03:06:11.840
a label that's only been around since
May of I think twenty twenty, they

2400
03:06:11.840 --> 03:06:16.680
put out like seven or eight titles
a month for most months, I imagine

2401
03:06:16.680 --> 03:06:20.559
they are busy as hell. They
kind of remind me of like Shout Factory

2402
03:06:20.639 --> 03:06:22.479
or something. This vi a vision
group because they did out a lot of

2403
03:06:22.479 --> 03:06:26.440
like random TV and stuff and then
they also have these like the Jangi Mao

2404
03:06:26.600 --> 03:06:31.239
like beautiful red box set and stuff, so they know they're an interesting one.

2405
03:06:31.879 --> 03:06:35.760
They're super interesting. Well again,
thanks for all your time. Obviously

2406
03:06:35.840 --> 03:06:37.840
it's been a long show, but
I appreciate everybody sticking around. It has

2407
03:06:37.879 --> 03:06:43.159
been a hell of a week if
you're into physical media. And again for

2408
03:06:43.440 --> 03:06:46.520
the last gosh, we're going on
like twenty years that people have been ringing

2409
03:06:46.559 --> 03:06:50.719
the death knell for physical media and
we have a week like this. We

2410
03:06:50.120 --> 03:06:56.200
have Candy Man and Life Force and
you know, Schizoid and x roy all

2411
03:06:56.200 --> 03:07:01.360
coming to four K and so much
more. It is crazy what we're getting.

2412
03:07:03.959 --> 03:07:07.479
Long live physical Media, Long live
collectors, Long live you, Chris.

2413
03:07:07.559 --> 03:07:11.239
I appreciate your time. Have a
good night, everybody. OW
